The core activities of EIN are organized in permanent working groups. Furthermore EIN hosts programs such as summer universities and seminars. Within EIN there are 10 working groups concerned with the following range of topics: Economy/ Environmental Policy, Governance/ Values and Foreign Affairs. Those themes and accordingly the EIN working groups are structured and coordinated by the corresponding EPP working groups.

The EIN actively promotes networking among center-right oriented think tanks in Europe. The pursued aim of the EIN is to provide conservative parties in Europe especially those sitting in the European Parliament with intellectual resources and thus find innovative solutions to problems on all relevant policy areas.

|Value=Hökmark, Gunnar
The EIN operates through reports and working results compiled by their working groups and through a task force. Furthermore EIN organizes an annual conference - the summer university, which since 2002 takes place in different European cities every year. Additional activities comprise seminars and communications among the member think tanks and the EPP group.

Virtual Networks A "Virtual Network" is a group of Think Tanks identified by certain semantic and normative (ideological) commonalities (e.g. climate change scepticism). Such a virtual network constitutes a research field that differs from the study of formal networks. Formal networks are real in the sense of officially acknowledged and immediately open to empirical validation. Virtual networks on the other hand display shared ideas. Social network analysis tools can be applied to find out if or to what extent virtual networks are real networks that display linkages (membership in networks, personnel, resources etc.). Unconnected think tanks in turn can be considered special cases in need of explanation independent from network structures (unless we have to assume invisible, hidden or covered ties).

Organizational Structure and Funding

Address

c/o EPP Group, rue Wiertz 60, 1047, Brüssel

People

Executive board

People leading the Think Tank in the day to day business (CEOs, directorates etc.).

Staff

People working for the Think Tank (Fellows etc.). This includes also part-time employees.







Topics

We used the DGs of the EU to generate a basic list of topics. This list is going to be steadily extended. However we try to preserve a persistent list of topics.

  • Foreign and Security Policy
  • Institutional Reform/Public Services
  • Energy
  • European Integration
  • International Trade/Globalization
  • Environment/Climate Action
  • Political Movements, Parties, Thought
  • Economic and Monetary Affairs

Semantic Fields

What we call here a semantic field is the idea to categorize think tanks in a two level system. The first levels are so called 'Virtual Networks' and the second are the semantic fields. Accordingly every semantic field entered here has to be attached to a virtual network. If you would like to follow a special phenomenon among think tanks please contact us and we are going to add a new virtual network. Semantic fields are topics that promote a virtual network. Lets take climate change as an example: 'climate change skeptics' is the virtual network and 'adaption instead of mitigation' would be one possible semantic field.
