This article reports on the research project “Source Collection on the History of German Social Policy, 1867–1914”, founded in 1950 by the Academy of Sciences and Literature Mainz.

In addition, there is information on the role played by various actors including the Reichstag and political parties, associations and the civil service, with short biographies of all the people mentioned.
