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.
- Reduction of public expenditures (Austerity Politics): on sub/optimal methods to reduce public expenditures - The author of the referenced article, Eduardo L. Giménez-Fernández, critizes the pay cuts for public servants as counterproductive but subscribes to the objective of budget consolidation by expenditure reduction.[1]
