For several years, Pollux has been offering political scientists in Germany free access to the Polit-X political monitoring and analysis database. Now there is a new database: Komm-X. Komm-X operates at the local government level. This tool can be used to monitor publications by local authorities, districts and independent cities. Political processes are often carried out and implemented at the local level.

On February 24th 2026, at 12 p.m., we are offering a webinar to introduce Komm-X and explore how the database can be a useful tool in your political science research. There will be plenty of time for questions and comments at the end of the webinar.
