For my dissertation, I collected and digitized multiple data sources. The majority of the data were gathered during my 8-11 months of fieldwork, depending on how you calculate it. Throughout that period, I was primarily located in Vienna and Budapest. As for data covering regions beyond the constituent states of the Austrian Hungarian Empire, I compiled them using a combination of secondary and primary sources. Currently, the data are not publicly accessible, but if you have any inquiries, please feel free to contact me via email at lotem [dot] halevy [at] uni-konstanz [dot] de.

Austrian State Archives, National Archives of Hungary (Budapest), Ostrava City Archives, Moravian-Silesian Scientific Library (online), The National Archives of Hungary Hajdú-Bihar County Archives branch, Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County Archives branch (Miskolc), and Bács-Kiskun County Archives branch, Provincial Archive of Lower Austria, Hungarian Jewish Museum and Archives, and Archives of the Jewish Museum in Prague.
Please note that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, my early fieldwork had to be conducted in a deductive manner, which is somewhat unconventional for historical research. However, I am grateful for the local connections I had in the countries I study, as they played a crucial role in granting me access to relevant documents during the pandemic. Thank you to those who made this possible.
