We investigate complex processes of communication and interaction in the conflict-laden triangle of politics, economy, and civil society. Our research team has special expertise in social scientific approaches and is familiar with methods and advanced techniques of qualitative and quantitative social research. In our research we employ mainly discursive methods of investigation. This means, that we use structured dialogue in order to systematically collect information about perspectives, arguments and values of social groups and individuals and include this information into our analyses.
