ISI

The Social Indicators Information Service – ISI is considered as a contribution to regular social reporting. It is edited and published by the Department Monitoring Society and Social Change of GESIS. The Social Indicators Information Service aims to reach both an academic as well as an interested non-academic public with or without a background in the social sciences. It is published twice a year and provides information – data and analytical views – on different issues of well-being as well as on selected aspects of general social change, also in comparative perspective. At the same time ISI seeks to contribute empirical data and analyses considered as an information input to significant topics of current socio-political discourses. In addition to that, the Social Indicators Information Service keeps its readers up to date with activities and events from social indicators research and social reporting, thus providing a platform for all those who are interested in these topical fields.

Please note that ISI is published predominantly in German

Thus all further pages on ISI are not available in English. You can find links to the German pages and pdf-files for all ISI issues starting with No. 1 (1989) on this page. The existing ISI articles published in English and some ISI articles translated into English can be accessed below (Publications in English).
