- Summary:
- This collection is the first to update and extend the assessment of the field that was presented in the 1991 collection The Social Survey in Historical Perspective. That path-breaking collection covered 1880-1940; this collection traces the history and legacies of social surveys up to the present day. Recent publications in this field each explore the development and legacy of a particular researcher, organization, or national tradition. Surveys and Society employs new modes of analysis to significantly expand the history of social surveys that has been told. Surveys and Society reveals the contributions of Australian researchers to social science and tracks the spread of social survey culture internationally, including in Asia and South America. Crucially, we identify more connections between and among researchers, disciplines, nations, and across the fields of commerce, government and scholarship.
