AB - Open Society Institute is a philanthropic foundation that is operating as a base of Soros foundation networks and it gives contributions to the civil society activities. Soros foundation networks are supposed to be a kind of syndicate of autonomous national foundations around the world. Open Society Institute and its networks have an influence on the national and international public policies with policy knowledge and expertise and put into operation a lot of initiatives for promoting “open society”. Open Society Institute offers researchers good cases for the study on the transnational strategies of private foundations. In the old socialist countries and the countries in transition to democracy, this institute functions as a great machine diffusing “the best policy model” and neoliberal policy expertise on the international dimension. This study abandons the assumption that the civil society is completely independent arena from States and emerging transnational public organizations. Focusing on the ideal and normative policy transactions, it analyses the strategy of private actors who reside in the civil society and reclaim their independence from the public sector but who promote, in reality, their specific policy models around the world.
