Introduction: Partisan influence upon Public Policy in Decentralised Polities -- Do Parties Matter in the German �Lnder? -- Education, Family and Childcare, and Labour Market Policies at a Land level -- The Case of Hesse, 1999-2003 -- The Saarland, 1999-2004 -- Saxony Anhalt, 2002-2006 -- Conclusion -- Appendix 1: Bibliography -- Appendix 2: List of Interviews -- Appendix 3: Commonly Used German Terms and Abbreviations -- --.

When Parties Matter looks at the extent to which political parties can make a difference to public policy, focusing on the regional level in Germany. Politicians of the left and the right sometimes have radically different views, but inevitably the combined forces of legal and financial constraints, bureaucracy, public expectations and the 'weight of history' restrict their ability to translate political disagreement into policy change. Giving a detailed examination of education policy, childcare and family policy, and labour market policy in three German regions between 1999 and 2006, this book provides insights into what politicians can and cannot achieve, in particular at the level below the nation-state.
