    Weaving the Web of European social science
    (euroCRIS, 2002-08)
    Even today nearly 50 years after Licklider’s observation and about 10 years after the invention of the World Wide Web, comparative social science research in Europe is hampered by the fragmentation of the scientific information space. Data, information and knowledge are scattered in space and divided by language and institutional barriers. As a consequence too much of the research are based on data from a single nation, carried out by a single-nation team of researcher and communicated to a single-nation audience. The state of affairs is preventing the development of a comparative and cumulative research process integrating and nurturing the entire European Research Area.
