The Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies has
four publication series:
MPIfG Books are monographs
aimed at the scientific community and at practitioners
in government, industry and associations.
MPIfG Discussion Papers
are articles reporting on research results from current projects. They are usually
subsequently published in scholarly journals.
MPIfG Working Papers
report on preliminary research results or contribute to
current debates.
The
MPIfG Journal Articles series features articles by MPIfG
researchers published in peer-reviewed scholarly journals as
well as articles by visiting researchers written at the
institute.
A
yearbook in German and a
report in English, each published every two years, inform
the general public about the results of the institute's research
as do brochures about special projects.
