German philosophy is often put on a level with Hegel, Heidegger, Gadamer and Habermas.
Sound philosophy has no nationality.
Hans Albert's philosophy is critical rationalism. He would be put in his right place if philosophy were a science, i.e. if philosophy only had the habits of science . Just one example. In Habermas' new book about truth and justification Albert is quoted nowhere, though as for truth and justification no other critic has given Habermas more stuff to think about than Albert did. Anyway, what is important and what is not one will be seen after some time.
