Thinking About Social Policy: The German Tradition Franz-Xaver Kaufmann 1 Introduction Social policy [Sozialpolitik] is a scholarly term that has had a career in practical politics. It arose first in the German-speaking realm, within the horizon of the Hegelian distinction between state and civil society. It was gradually codified academically by scholars belonging to the Verein fur€ Socialpolitik [Association for Social Policy], which was founded in 1873. Its institutional career began with Bismarck’s social reforms, though it took quite some time before it won out over competing German as well as international terms. Until the end of the Weimar Republic, social policy remained chiefly an academic term for the institutional developments taking place under different names. Its introduction into practical affairs took place gradually and especially after the Second World War. The international career of the term dates only to the last three decades. Unlike the term itself, the subject matter of social policy did not originate in the German-speaking realm.
