Dear colleagues, dear Manuela Caiani,

I write you on behalf of German Society for Ecological Economics, a
small organization part of Stop TTIP. I was contacted by Manuela Caiani
asking me to take part of a survey, trying to understand the structure
of the movement. Find the mail below.

I see several risks related to that, at least in Germany we have some
rather questionable examples of scientists/companies trying to
understand the organizational structures of civil society, such as:

https://www.lobbycontrol.de/2013/02/bp-lasst-burgerproteste-untersuchen-was-steckt-dahinter/
TL,DR: oil company BP tries to understand civil protests to improve
       their outrage management

I'm curious to hear what you think about this research and hope that
Manuela Caiani will tell us more about the ideas, concepts, financial
support of her studies via these lists.

Kind regards,
Oliver Richters,

chairman of Vereinigung für Ökologische Ökonomie e.V.
