This paper is an inquiry into the nature and characteristics of the so-called soft approaches. As point of departure, two classical references on soft approaches are critically discussed. Six well-known soft approaches are selected for further study and characterisation applying a multi-dimensional framework. In addition, the limitations of such a framework are discussed
