• Resumen

  • Agenda-setting focuses on how political issues emerge within society, enterparliamentary debates and are responded to by government decisions. Weintroduce a database that traces policy issues in Germany between 1978 and2017. These political activities include political inputs (public opinion),processes (party manifestos, parliamentary questions and governmentspeeches), as well as outputs (laws). Each activity’s topic is identified usingtheComparative Policy Agendasscheme. Collectively, these observationscomprise the policy agendas of Germany. We highlight the databasepotential by describing all German policy issues for the 39-year period andby tracking how immigration became a political issue
