Non-profit law reform
Germany’s federal government has partially reformed the country’s non-profit and donation law. But, in the federal Ministry of Finance, the socio-political dimension of this project was almost completely ignored. It is about appropriate framework conditions for civil society organisations in a modern civil society, about the conscious promotion of civic engagement, about the elimination of authoritarian state supervision. The Maecenata Institute offers analyses, opinions and arguments for real reform.
If you would like to contribute an argument or comment on the Institute’s publications, please email Dr Rupert Graf Strachwitz:
