    Transparency Vs. Delegitimization? Shrinking Space for Foreign-Funded Organizations in Democracies: Hungary and Israel
    (2018-12) Horvath, Kinga Zsofia; Herrold, Catherine; Badertscher, Kathi; Adelman, Carol
    The shrinking space for civil society and the increasing number of unfavorable legislation affecting the work of non-governmental organizations continue to be burning issues for global philanthropy. Using a case study approach, this thesis explores how democracies regulate the operation of foreign-funded non-governmental organizations in Hungary and Israel. This thesis examines what the presumed and real motivations of democratic governments are to adapt such regulations and how the political, economic and socio-cultural environments might influence their enactment. This thesis also compares the Hungarian and Israeli regulations to the 1938 Foreign Agents Registration Act.
