Education. A Comparative Study. Stanford: Stanford University Press.
Abstract: "This chapter is concerned with the growth, the internal differentiation and
the inequalities of access in the German system of tertiary education. German higher
education has been the topic of an almost constant debate and subject to major institutional
reforms at least since the 1960s. Three aspects dominated these debates and
reforms which were especially pronounced between 1965 and 1975 and between
1993 and the present. The first aspect was growth and adaptation to changing demand.
Here economic and demographic arguments were most salient. The second
aspect focused on the cultural goals and institutional forms of the university. The
third aspect related to inequalities of access and the role of higher education for a
democratic society. […] What are the expected relationships between expansion,
institutional differentiation and inequalities of access? Growth periods should favour
the inclusion of social groups which did not at all or hardly ever participated in higher
education and therefore should decrease inequalities of opportunities. Externally,
but more so internally differentiated systems should create barriers of access in the
sense that lower tier parts of higher education should be more open to groups which
have been excluded before than the higher ranking institutions. Cultural distance,
duration, expected success and returns as well as real and opportunity costs would all
be factors pushing in that direction. [...] [The] results are based on a pooled data set
using four different data sources: 1) the German general social survey (ALLBUS)
1980-2000, 2) the ZUMA-Standarddemographie 1976-1982, 3) the German socioeconomic
panel (GSOEP) 1986, 1999, and 2006 and 4) the West German Life History
Studies (conducted in the 1980s)"

Problem der Überregelung im Spiegel der öffentlichen Meinung. Die Verwaltung,
15: 281-300.
Abstract: Die in der Bundesrepublik weit verbreitete Bürokratiekritik, welche sich
vor allem auf das Verhältnis von Staat und Gesellschaft sowie auf das Verhältnis von
öffentlicher Verwaltung und Bürgern richtet, bezieht sich im wesentlichen auf das
Problem der Überregelung. Die Frage ist, ob das Problem der Überregelung nur von
bestimmten Minderheiten der Gesellschaft thematisiert wird, während sich der Normalbürger
eher auf seine alltäglichen Erfahrungen mit Behörden und Behördenpersonal
konzentriert, ohne das Niveau staatlicher Aktivitäten prinzipell zu kritisieren.
