GIGA Working Paper Series

GIGA Working Papers

The GIGA Working Papers series serves to disseminate research results prior to publication in order to encourage academic debate and the exchange of ideas. An objective of the series is to get the findings out quickly, even if the presentations are less than fully polished. Inclusion of a paper in the Working Papers series does not constitute publication and should not limit publication in any other venue. Copyright remains with the authors. All working papers are available free of charge as pdf files.

Die GIGA Working Papers zirkulieren Forschungsergebnisse als "work in progress" in Manuskriptform bereits vor ihrer Veröffentlichung, um die wissenschaftliche Diskussion zu befördern. Die Aufnahme in die Working-Papers-Serie stellt keine Veröffentlichung dar und sollte die Publikation des Manuskripts in einer wissenschaftlichen Zeitschrift oder Buch in keinster Weise beeinträchtigen. Das Copyright verbleibt bei den Autoren. Alle Working Papers sind als PDF-Dateien kostenlos erhältlich.
