Family and sociopolitical issues and decisions are of great importance for families, because they often have direct consequences for family life. At the ZFG these general developments are observed, analyzed and commented on. On the other hand, individual questions in this area are investigated within the framework of research and dissertation projects.

The aim is to anchor basic family policy research more firmly in politics, economy and society.

Further information on the projects in this area of research can be found here:

  • Wohlfahrtsstaat (completed dissertation project of Dr. Marion Kühn)
