The series ”Religion – Wirtschaft – Politik“ (Religion–Economy–Politics) provides a platform for academic publications by the Centre for Religion, Economy and Politics (www.zrwp.ch ), a joint venture by the Universities of Basel, Fribourg, Lausanne, Lucerne, Zurich, and the Collegium Helveticum. The ZRWP aims to analyse the interactions between religion, economy, and politics in an inter- and transdisciplinary way by encouraging innovative research on religion. By publishing monographs and edited volumes focused on content and methods, the series contributes to a better understanding and explanation of religion in society at a local, regional, national, and transnational level in a globalizing world.

The Munich Intellectual Property Law Center (MIPLC) is a project of four partners from two continents: The Max Planck Institute for Intellectual Property, Competition and Tax Law, the University of Augsburg, the Technische Universität München and the George Washington University Law School, Washington D.C. Apart from an LL.M. program in intellectual property law taught by faculty from all over the world, MIPLC is also devoted to research in all areas of intellectual property, including adjacent areas of economics and science. Together with its partner organisations worldwide, MIPLC also organizes conferences on topical intellectual property issues. In its MIPLC Studies, the best research results of the Center and proceedings of conferences organized by the Center will be published. The series will cover a wide variety of subjects of interest for academic researchers, as well as for practitioners, including policy makers interested in intellectual property and adjacent fields. They will benefit from the output of research performed by researchers from all over the world who study and work at the Center.

Many smaller polities are well known both for their special achievements as well as for particular problems of democratic governance. The political and scientific relevance of these experiences reaches well beyond the borders of the countries immediately concerned. For this reason, the study of smaller countries has long become a constituent part of international democracy and governance research. This series creates a forum specifically dedicated to the analysis of politics and democratic governance in the smaller European countries including their international aspects. The series encompasses case studies as well as comparative contributions whose focus is not necessarily strictly confined to the family of smaller democracies in Europe. The international team of accomplished editors ensures that volumes published in this series will meet the highest standards of international research.
