Abstract
Abstract As the Institute for Economic History at the GDR Academy of Science was being wound up following German reunion, the existence of the Economic History Yearbook was also threatened. Initially, its publication was only guaranteed for 1991, so in the early nineties the question was pertinent whether the Yearbook could be continued in a new form or whether it would be wound up too. As we know today, the Yearbook survived the “Wende” but with a new editorial and advisory board and a new concept. To mark the 25th anniversary of the new “Yearbook”, the editors called upon Toni Pierenkemper – as both first and long-standing Managing Editor – to provide his perspective on the situation in which the Yearbook was relaunched. The following insights are essentially based on his correspondence as managing editor today archived in Bochum.
