New Publication: Yearbook of Federalism 2024
The “Yearbook of Federalism 2024” is finally here. And it is a very special occasion, as this year marks the 25th anniversary of the Yearbook. That's a reason to celebrate and to say thank you.
A big thank you goes to all our authors, whose contributions over the past 25 years have made the previous volumes and the current anniversary volume possible. We would also like to thank the University of Tübingen for its ongoing and reliable funding of the ECRF. This year, we are particularly grateful to the Association of Friends of the University of Tübingen (Unibund) and the Association for the Promotion of Political Science at the University of Tübingen (POLIS; with the kind support of the Dr. Steffen Jenner Fund), which support the publication of the Yearbook with a publication grant. We would also like to thank the many Scientific Coordinators who have done the day-to-day work over the past decades and without whose commitment the Yearbook would definitely not be published reliably every fall. We are also grateful to Nomos Publishing, who have supported us from the very beginning with their great expertise in the academic book market. Last but not least, special thanks go to our readers. Many of you have been loyal to us since volume 1 in 2000, others joined us later - and will hopefully remain loyal in the future.
Ever since its inception, the Yearbook has been conceived as a thematically broad compendium, which is intended to provide readers - primarily in politics and administration, in science and research, teaching and studies as well as the interested public - with an up-to-date, reliable and summarizing overview of the various aspects of federal and regional structure and politics on an ongoing basis, without the need for them to carry out their own considerable research.
This year's yearbook also lives up to this claim: in addition to well-known sections such as “Research topics”, “German federalism” and “European country reports”, this year we are focusing on one of the major topics of our time: “Climate change – federal responses to a global challenge”. A series of articles examines how climate protection is organized in different countries and to what extent federal structures with their complex multi-level structures are beneficial or rather obstructive for climate policy.
