The Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies (<strong>MPIfG</strong>) is an institute of the<br />

Max Planck Society for the Advancement of the Sciences e.V. (MPS), an independent,<br />

non-profit organization that is largely publicly funded by the German<br />

federal government and the states. Five percent of the MPS budget stems from<br />

membership dues, donations, and the Society’s own earnings. By acquiring external<br />

grants, the MPS is able to match ten percent of its public funding with funds<br />

from the private sector. The institutional budget of the <strong>MPIfG</strong> is provided annually<br />

by the Max Planck Society (1999: 6.0 million DM; 2000: 6.1 million DM; 2001:<br />

3.4 million EUR; 2002: 3.6 million EUR). The institute’s budget covers personnel<br />

and operating costs, special funding for young German scientists and research<br />

cooperation with other countries.<br />
