The German Institute of Development and Sustainability (IDOS) publishes four independent publication series. IDOS researchers publish their current research results in Discussion Papers, Policy Briefs and Studies. Visiting scholars and cooperation partners also have the opportunity to publish their research results in one of the IDOS series. Publications from the series Analysen und Stellungnahmen, Briefing Paper and Two-Pager / Zweiseiter, which will be discontinued in 2022, will continue to be available online. The fourth publication series is for opinion pieces: The Current Column regularly comments on the latest developments and issues in international development policy.
IDOS researchers also regularly publish their research results in peer-reviewed and non-peer-reviewed German and international journals and publication series of other research institutes and institutions as well as with renowned book publishers. In addition, they use blogs and online platforms of partner institutions to communicate the Institute's research and advisory activities to an interested public.

What makes the DCF, which is little known outside expert groups, an important platform for future debates on development policy? This question can be answered by presenting four theses.
EZ-Organisationen sind in Zeiten der globalen Wirtschaftskrise einem vermehrten Legitimationsdruck ausgesetzt. Dieses Papier analysiert die Risiken und Grenzen einer Ergebnisberichterstattung, die primär auf die Erfüllung von Rechenschaftsplichten in Geberländern ausgerichtet ist.
Is the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change an effective science-policy institution? How is it governed? Have recent reforms after error-finding improved the workings of the Panel? What are strengths and weaknesses of the IPCC model? This discussion paper sheds light on these questions.
This arcticle scrutinises the state of RMB internationalisation and its likely progress over the coming years and discusses its implications for currency co-operation in East Asia. As part of its internationalisation, the RMB is gradually delinked from the dollar, which will effectively put an end to the East Asian dollar standard that has shaped the region's financial architecture over the last three decades and that has provided a relatively high degree of intra-regional exchange rate stability. Because of the close trade and investment ties that have developed across the region, the East Asian countries, especially the ASEAN countries which are striving to create an ASEAN Economic Community, will continue to manage their exchange rates and stabilise their currencies against one another to facilitate cross-border investment and commerce. But instead of a replacing of the dollar standard with an RMB standard we are likely to see some rather loose and informal exchange rate co-operation in East Asia based on currency baskets, with China herself moving towards a managed exchange rate system guided by a currency basket.

Economists and climate politicians agree that a price for CO2 emissions would be the best instrument to reduce emissions and steer investors towards investments in low-carbon energy production, but this is still a long way away.
