SOCHIST on LISTSERV@USCVM    New Social History List
        or LISTSERV@VM.USC.EDU

   Briefly, this list will address three aspects of what is called the
   "New Social History":

      (1) emphasis on quantitative data rather than an analysis of prose
      sources.

      (2) borrowing of methodologies from the social sciences, such as
      linguistics, demographics, anthropology, etc.

      (3) the examination of groups which have been ignored by traditional
      disciplines (i.e.  the history of women, families, children, labor,
      etc.)
