Abstract: With which policy goals and positions did the German parties compete for votes in the 2025 election to the German Bundestag? On which issues did the parties agree and where did they make distinct policy offers? To answer these questions the article examines the manifestos published for the 2025 election. The analysis relies on data from the Manifesto Project, which codes manifestos based on a long-established method in political science. Before applying the data for the analysis of the German parties, the article describes the project and its content analytical ap-proach. It then examines the distinct policy offers made to the electorate with regard to issue salience and policy position in a two-dimensional space.
