Abstract:
This paper consider the subject of re-using oral history data. I will consider what we know about how archived oral histories are being collected and being (re)used in Great Britain, Germany and Poland. Then I reviewed several methodological debates about field research or/and re-using oral archived data that continue to be intensive discussed. I close the paper with some reflections about reusing oral history data, that might be useful for other oral historians.
