About the Journal German Policy Studies focuses on policy research • with an emphasis on German speaking countries, issues and studies (and/or) • which take a comparative approach (and/or) • which can build a bridge between Anglo-American and continental European/German policy research. The underlying argument is that in German speaking countries there is a kind of common tradition or way of solving problems which, if at all, only slowly adapts to Anglo-American viewpoints, concepts and developments.
