Summary/Abstract: In of about the mid-20th century, the first major doubts about historiography’s basic aim and purpose occurred. Due to its extraordinary social importance, a doubt initially occurred in practice about whether historiography is an instrument of proving or an instrument of reconsidering historical awareness. The interests in the investigation of historiography were to a large extent determined by the question whether a society was sufficiently politically and economically developed. It has actually been shown that insufficiently strong democratic regimes, ideologies and political movements seriously impair the investigation of historiography. In such societies the purpose of studying history had almost exclusively political and ideological aspects, which caused the investigation to predominantly be in the area of political phenomena.
