Gerda Henkel Funding Programme: Democracy

The funding initiative is divided into two subsections with different perspectives:
1. A historically oriented subsection on the topic of Democracy as a Utopia, Experience and Threats. Projects in this subsection should analyze the history of conflicts over the  foundation of the social order.
2. A subsection which is oriented towards the analysis of the present situation and  predictions for the future on the topic of Transformations of Democracy? Or: The Contours of Future Democratic Society. Projects in this subsection should contribute to the analysis of the complex present-day situation and the processes of profound transformation that are taking shape while also trying to trace the contours of future society. 

Project teams must consist of 2-3 applicants. 
Funding: not specified. Duration: 3 years
