Director

at time of fellowship
2006 to 2007
Wolfgang Streeck, Director of the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies, will spend the spring at the Foundation finishing a book on the ongoing liberalization of the postwar German political economy. He will examine the process by which markets begin to take on tasks once handled by social regulation, asking how such reforms can be put in place when political resistance to them is high.
