Organizational Structure and Funding

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.


Advisory board

People advising the Think Tank (mainly in scientific questions)


Experts

Experts are not permanently employed at the Think Tank. They are paid for contract research when their expertise is needed. Some Think Tanks call a database of hundred or even more experts their own.




Cooperations with Think Tanks

Think Tanks that claim to cooperate with the Civismo

While the section above shows Think Tanks the Civismo claims to cooperate with, the list below shows Think Tanks that claim to cooperate with the Civismo.


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.

  • Liberalism
  • Financial Programming and the Budget
  • Competition
  • Taxation

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.

  • Austerity measures (Austerity Politics): Promoting state spending cuts[1] Keyfigures: Eguidazu, Fernando
