The Austrian Journal of Historical Studies (OeZG) has been in existence since 1990, publishing innovative contributions in German and English on women's and gender history, cultural history, history of science, social history, economic history, and political history. Empirical studies are mainly related to the European area, global comparative studies are welcome. Scientific concepts, theories, and methods are discussed in the essays and also in conversations with researchers, in workshop reports from ongoing projects, and in review essays. Authors come from German, English, Romance, and Slavic language areas. A peer review process and an international advisory board serve to ensure quality. Since 2011, OeZG has been ranked in the highest category (Int 1) in the discipline of History in the ERIH (European Refence Index for the Humanities). The OeZG is published three times a year as an open access journal (with a one-year deadline) on the OJS of the University of Vienna and as a print edition by Studienverlag.
Ernst Langthaler is co-editor of OeZG.
