| Summary: | As part of a larger research project on price formation on the wine market in Germany, we conducted a quantitative content analysis of German newspapers covering a time span of more than 60 years, from 1947 to 2008. In the present case, we discuss the key stages of this research project, namely, developing the research question, embedding the research question within the theoretical debate, drawing an appropriate sample of newspaper articles, developing a codebook, training interviewers, coding, and data analysis and interpretation. We wish to give students and researchers practical insights into the research process and the strengths and limitations of quantitative content analysis in addressing historically oriented questions in economic sociology. |
