Social Science and Economic Data
Statistics
Data is a researcher’s bread and butter so you’ll be interested in gesisDataSearch – a new search engine which holds data from across social sciences and economics. It’s now in beta mode and you can find useful data in social science areas like social work.
The search engine enables you to use one site to find information from different website data archives around the world. These include GESIS, the UK Data Archive (UKDA), SND (the Swedish National Data Service), Danish Data Archive (DDA), Finnish Social Science Data Archive (FSD), Czech Social Science Data Archive (CSDA).
In addition the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR), UK Data Archive and re3data.org are also data sites which also house data from the social sciences.
