Detailed funding activities

If possible we also list more detailed funding activities of Think Tanks. This includes funds they emit as well as funds they receive.

Received funds

• http://www.stmf.bayern.de (2012) Funding of 1,468,000 €. public benefits reflection the HSS' status as foundation of a party represented in the bavarian Landtag

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.

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.
