The Roman Herzog Institute e. V., based in Munich, is an interdisciplinary think tank that is financed by Bavarian employers' and business associations. It deals with socio-political issues relating to the future of work and with ethics in the social market economy . The institute organizes workshops, salon disputes and specialist symposia on topics such as "Freedom", "Generations", "Justice", "CSR", "Family", "Trust", "Megatrends in work".

History and structure

The institute was founded in 2002 on the initiative of the entrepreneur and economic functionary Randolf Rodenstock . Former Federal President Roman Herzog was the patron and namesake of RHI. RHI regards his thinking - especially with regard to educational policy and freedom of economic restructuring - as groundbreaking for the direction of the institute.

The winner of the RHI are the Bavarian Business Association , the Bavarian business association metal and electrical and the Association of the Bavarian Metal and Electrical Industry .

In terms of organization, structure and strategic orientation, the RHI is similar to the employer-financed Initiative New Social Market Economy (INSM). There is some overlap at the personnel level: RHI Chairman Rodenstock is, for example, ambassador for INSM. Roman Herzog appeared for INSM campaigns. The Cologne Institute of the German Economy, which is close to the employer, is an equally close scientific cooperation partner of RHI and INSM.

Since 2014, the RHI has been awarding the Roman Herzog Social Market Economy Research Prize once a year to three young scientists who deal with the topic of social market economy in their dissertations or habilitation theses .

Publications

In its publications, RHI develops and publishes approaches and concrete suggestions and, according to its own understanding, provides discussion material for a new model of the social market economy, among other things. Current discussions are constantly flowing into this - such as the debate about the advantages and disadvantages of an unconditional basic income for all citizens, as well as the ethical responsibility of managers and entrepreneurs. The publications are made available for download free of charge from the RHI website .

Advisory Board

The institute is supported and advised by a scientific advisory board in the fundamental orientation of the research work. Members of the advisory board are Werner Abelshauser , Bruno S. Frey , Dieter Frey , Nils Goldschmidt , Rolf Gröschner , Karl Homann , Stefan Hradil and Dagmar Schipanski .
