Abstract: Abstract Some months ago I had the honor to be invited to Mannheim for a conference organized by Thomas Koenig and Marc Debus. The subject matter was “Reform Processes and Policy Change,” and the organizers thought that my book Veto Players would be a good starting point for their study. I thought that the conference was an excellent idea, particularly since the reputation of Mannheim on policy studies is outstanding. Little did I know that this would be only a first step, because they now have received an interdisciplinary multimillion grant from the German Government (SFB 884) to “Political Economy of Reforms”
