Vereinbarkeit von Forschungsprozess und Datenmanagement in den Geisteswissenschaften

Forschungsdatenmanagement nüchtern betrachtet

Abstract

In the humanities, the term research data management encounters much incomprehension and seems to researchers incompatible with their daily work. Based on practical examples with the virtual research environment FuD, this article shows that data management is inherent in the research process. The transfer of traditional research processes to the digital domain is merely a reinterpretation, although many aspects have to be defined more explicitly already in the planning phase. However, this is conducive to sharpening the research process. Furthermore, the humanities scientists have most of the necessary skills for this transformation process due to their education.
