Research Kolloquium: Think Tanks, Education and Democratic Backsliding ...

This project examines the role of right-wing think tanks in producing and disseminating ethnonational narratives in Israel and Hungary. It analyses how these institutions define "the people", where they draw its boundaries, and how these narratives enter public discourse and education. The study approaches think tanks as intellectual actors in struggle over hegemony.
