Abstract

Continuing with the analysis of whether and how think-tanks played a role in change processes of party programmes and government policies, I turn to the German case now. The focus is on the Friedrich-Ebert- Foundation (FES), the Bertelsmann Foundation, the Social Science Research Centre Berlin (WZB) and two management consultancies — Roland Berger Strategy Consultants and McKinsey & Company.
