Mission Textbook
Textbook revision and research have historically been two of the central pillars of the work of the Georg Eckert Institute, and remain so today. The history of the Institute demonstrates just how intertwined they are. Against this backdrop, the development of the Institute is presented and critically examined from different perspectives, using a broad range of source materials. The book pays particular attention to the collection of textbooks for the humanities and social sciences, which has been important from the beginning and is now the largest in the world. The history of the Institute illustrates how academic perspectives, as well as political and financial instruments, related to textbook research and revision have changed as part of the shift from bilateral cooperation to global networks. The Institute has always responded to changing social contexts and its foci have provided important stimuli for economists, education practitioners and policy makers.

The Palgrave Handbook of Textbook Studies
This volume examines the present status and future trends of textbook studies. Cutting-edge essays by leading experts and emerging scholars explore the field’s theories, methodologies, and topics with the goal of generating debate and providing new perspectives. The Georg Eckert Institute’s unique transdisciplinary focus on international textbook research has shaped this handbook, which explores the history of the discipline, the production processes and contexts that influence textbooks, the concepts they incorporate, how this medium itself is received and future trends. The book maps and discusses approaches based in cultural studies as well as in the social and educational sciences in addition to contemporary methodologies used in the field. The book aims to become the central interdisciplinary reference for textbook researchers, students, and educational practitioners.
Schulbuch als Mission
Schulbuchforschung und Schulbuchrevision bilden bis heute zwei zentrale Pfeiler der Arbeit des Georg-Eckert-Instituts. Die Geschichte des Instituts zeigt, dass beide nicht unabhängig voneinander denkbar sind. Vor diesem Hintergrund wird die Entwicklung des Instituts auf einer breiten Quellengrundlage aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln dargestellt und kritisch hinterfragt. Die von Anfang an bedeutende und heute weltweit größte Schulbuchsammlung der geistes- und sozialwissenschaftlichen Fächer findet dabei besondere Aufmerksamkeit. Die Institutsgeschichte zeigt, wie sich wissenschaftliche Perspektiven sowie politische und finanzielle Steuerungsinstrumente der Schulbuchforschung und -revision mit Blick auf den Wandel von der bilateralen Zusammenarbeit zur globalen Vernetzung veränderten. Das Institut hat dabei immer auf veränderte gesellschaftliche Kontexte reagiert und setzte mit eigenen Schwerpunkten wichtige Impulse für die Wissenschaft, Bildungspolitik und -praxis.
