You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 18.208.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 01:01, 24 April 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

==History==

[[Ernst von Siemens]], Chairman of the Supervisory Board of [[Siemens AG]] from 1956 to 1971, established the Foundation from his private assets. It bears the name of his father Carl Friedrich von Siemens, who was also Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Siemens Group between 1919 and 1941. From 1964 the foundation's managing director was the publicist [[Armin Mohler]], and in 1985 [[Heinrich Meier]] succeeded Mohler. Since October 2023, the foundation has had a award-winning politician and administrative official as its managing director, [[Isabel Pfeiffer-Poensgen]].

===The foundation under Armin Mohler 1964–1985===
Mohler used the foundation mainly for political events. An example of this is a famos series on [[Carl Schmitt]] organized by Mohler in 1978. The lectures were then published by ''Propyläen-Verlag'' under the title ''Der Ernstfall'' as the second volume in the Foundation's series of publications, even though Schmitt was academically and journalistically isolated because of his commitment to [[Nazi Germany]]. Speakers were Among others [[Knut Borchardt]], [[Paul Carell]], [[Hellmut Diwald]] and [[Christian Meier (historian)|Christian Meier]]. The series was understood as a tribute to Schmitt. Other publications of the foundations also dealt with persons or topics related to the [[New Right]].

In 1980, the historian [[Ernst Nolte]] gave a lecture at the Carl Friedrich von Siemens Foundation entitled ''Zwischen Geschichtslegende und Revisionismus'' (Between Historical Legend and Revisionism), which the ''[[Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung]]'' published, thus triggering the ''[[Historikerstreit]]'', the so-called historians' dispute.

===The foundation under Heinrich Meier 1985–2022===
Today the foundation has the following priorities:

* To organize scientific, interdisciplinary lecture series by individual speakers and to publish them.<br />Some speakers who have given lectures at the Foundation includes [[Jan Assmann]], [[Ernst-Wolfgang Böckenförde]], [[Jean Bollack]], [[J. M. Coetzee]], [[Richard Dawkins]], [[Daniel Dennett]], [[Philippe Descola]], [[Louis Dumont]], [[Ronald Dworkin]], [[Ágnes Heller]], [[Paul Kirchhof]], [[Jean-François Lyotard]], [[Peter von Matt]], [[Ernst Mayr]], [[Ilya Prigogine]], [[Martin Rees]], [[Karl Schlögel]], [[Wolf Singer]], [[Andreas Urs Sommer]] and [[Helen Vendler]]. Some of the lectures are published in the series ''Themen der Carl Friedrich von Siemens Stiftung'' (since 1985 more than 40 volumes have been published).
* To award the Carl Friedrich von Siemens Fellowships to outstanding scientists (since 1993). These fellowships support the completion of research by outstanding scientists.
* To support the supplement of scientific literature, which includes the supply of university libraries.
* To organize guest events, scientific conferences and international symposia. Special emphasis is placed on promoting contact between German and foreign scientists.

==Critique==
Numerous experts on right-wing extremism, such as [[Peter Glotz]] consider the Carl Friedrich von Siemens Foundation under the management of Armin Mohlers to be a think tank of the New Right and assign the foundation to the New Right.
