The aim of the series of publications is to focus academic attention on public goods as a key prerequisite of democracy, solidarity and public welfare. It combines its intention of contemporary analysis with the interdisciplinary demand for social science and legal studies compositions, and is thus equally as much a forum for theoretical and conceptual contributions as it is for empirical studies. The series publishes both monographs and anthologies in either German or English.

As soon as assessments or classifications are developed, tested and introduced with binding effect, or evaluations of care services are carried out, statistical methods come into play. This presupposes that their application is methodologically reflected on and that individual procedures can be varied according to the issue at hand. This series allows us the scope to do this and publishes monographs and anthologies on this subject area.

Islamic Religious Education is a dynamic new discipline in German higher education, evolving alongside Islamic Theological Studies and the expansion of religious instruction in schools. This series bridges theory and practice by developing optimized learning processes for a pluralistic society. Closely linked to interreligious pedagogy, it intentionally embeds Islamic contexts into dialogical settings with other traditions to foster encounter, shared responsibility, and deeper interreligious reflection. We explore the full spectrum of Islamic Religious Education—from schools to community spaces. Our goal is to highlight concepts that enable collaborative learning among people of all religious and secular backgrounds, providing the theoretical and practical tools to meet today’s educational challenges. We provide a high-profile stage for cutting-edge research, including innovative dissertations and habilitation theses, monographs, edited volumes, and conference proceedings.
