Under­stand­ing Ukraine

The Center for Liberal Moder­nity (LibMod) is a think tank devoted to democ­racy, indi­vid­ual liberty and cos­mopoli­tanism, in short: to the defense and renewal of open society.

Liberal moder­nity is under pres­sure all over the world. In a time of fun­da­men­tal changes, we promote cross-par­ti­san reflec­tion about the future of our common society and the inter­na­tional order. We serve as a ral­ly­ing point for free thinkers of all polit­i­cal per­sua­sions and search for answers to the great chal­lenges of our time.

LibMod was founded by Marieluise Beck and Ralf Fücks in 2017.
