The Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies is an<br />

institute for advanced research in the social sciences. It<br />

builds a bridge between theory and policy by conducting<br />

basic research on the self-organization and governance of<br />

modern societies.<br />

The <strong>MPIfG</strong> was founded in 1985. Today, some forty to fifty<br />

scholars from Germany and abroad, including research<br />

fellows, doctoral students, scholarship recipients, visiting<br />

researchers and grant-funded researchers work at the<br />

institute.<br />

The <strong>MPIfG</strong> is one of the smaller institutes in the Max<br />

Planck Society for the Advancement of Science (MPG),<br />

which is made up of some 80 research institutes. The MPG<br />

is an independent, non-profit research organization funded<br />

by public funds from the German federal and state<br />

governments.
