Welcome to the Think Tank Network Initiative! Think Tanks have become influential organizations both in expert circles and in public media. Social scientific research on think tanks at the same time has remained underdeveloped, and is not currently up to the task of adequately capturing and explaining the think tank phenomenon. The Think Tank Network Initiative has been founded to meet this challenge and to narrow the gap. In addition to becoming a home for a wide range of comparative think tank studies we also aim to advance the discussion on legal foundations of and other rules and regulations for think tanks. The Think Tank Network Initiative comes out in favor of comprehensive transparency rules for all think tanks, not for profit organizations and others. The need for research (and advocacy) in this area is particularly important in order to improve the conditions for think tank research in general. An example of a related project is provided by a group studying the regulation of lobbying acitivities [1]

Wir haben uns gegenüber der SSRC Initiative bewußt für den leicht abgewandelten Namen Think Tank Netzwerk Initiative entschieden, weil das Think Tank Phänomen vor dem Hintergrund der zum Teil systematischen Vernetzung von einzelnen Think Tanks erklärt werden muss. Die häufig grenzüberschreitenden Netzwerke von Think Tanks sind wesentliche Akteure und Infrastrukturzusammenhänge im Zuge der intensiven transnationalen Vergesellschaftung der vergangenen Jahrzehnte. Die Initiative untersucht die Think Tank-Landschaften somit insbesondere auf neue, aus Netzwerkzusammenhängen erwachsende Arbeitsformen und Handlungsmöglichkeiten. Dabei gehen wir zunächst schwerpunktmäßig der Inter/-Transnationalisierung der Arbeit von Think Tanks in der EU nach, beschränken die Perspektive aber bewusst nicht auf die europäischen Verhältnisse. Z.B. soll im Rahmen der Initiative auch das u.a. von der Weltbank 1998 gegründete Global Development Netzwerk Gegenstand kritischer Analyse werden.

Die Think Tank Netzwerk Initiative will umfassende Informationen zu Think Tank Netzwerken (Gesamtdokumentationen, die über Selbstdarstellungsmaterial hinaus recherchierte Informationen bieten)und den in diesen Netzwerken arbeitenden Einzelinstituten bereit stellen, um Fachleuten und der interessierten Öffentlichkeit insgesamt das Verständnis der Think Tank Landschaft und -politik zu erleichtern. Darüber hinaus werden vertiefende Forschungsprojekte entwickelt. Z.B. soll die Frage geklärt werden, ob bzw. inwiefern durch die Netzwerkzusammenhänge eine die thematische Kohäsion von themenzentrierten oder ideologisch orientierten Think Tanks geeignet ist, politische Positionen netzwerkübergreifend zu vereinheitlichen und über die Netzwerkgrenzen hinaus systematisch zu vermitteln. Unabhängig von vielen anderen Möglichkeiten der Think Tank Arbeit werden Think Tanks somit als Organisationen verstanden, die in Diskursgemeinschaften und -koalitionen bestimmte Zwecke verfolgen.

Think Tank Network Initiative

Welcome to the Think Tank Network Initiative! Think Tanks have become influential organizations both in expert circles and in public media. Social scientific research on think tanks at the same time has remained underdeveloped, and is not currently up to the task of adequately capturing and explaining the think tank phenomenon. The Think Tank Network Initiative was founded to meet this challenge and to narrow the gap. In addition to becoming a home for a wide range of comparative think tank studies we also aim to advance the discussion on the legal foundations of, and other rules and regulations for think tanks. The Think Tank Network Initiative advocates comprehensive transparency rules for all think tanks and other not-for-profit organizations. The need for research and advocacy in this area is particularly important in order to improve the conditions for think tank research in general.
