history
Over the years, the publishing program expanded to include the areas of economics (especially management), professional, financial and study guides and popular non-fiction books with a focus on politics, economics, society and history.
In 1995 Thomas Carl Schwoerer, the founder's son, took over the management. In 2001, Schwoerer was named “Publisher of the Year” by Buchmarkt magazine . In July 2011 the publishing house had 36 employees. Around 200 new titles appear every year, half of which are aimed at a specialist academic audience and students. One of the publisher's most successful non-fiction books in recent times was the title Simplify your life by Werner Tikiüstenmacher and Israel abolishes itself (2012) by Gershom Gorenberg .
In February 2015, Campus-Verlag was completely taken over by the Beltz publishing group , which had previously held 50% of the shares.
