I hope some of the Swiss ZornListers can help out, but my take on the Swiss funding system is, that every corporation that makes any profit, is obliged to donate to Swiss culture.
I live next to Switzerland, still I don't know about the laws for sure. Since Switzerland is very proud of its democratic system, the fact that they are politically "neutral" (sp?), I find it hard to believe that such a funding system would be possible. There are however some very big corporations that voluntarily put quite a bit of money into arts/music. (The most famous and established one in Switzerland being supermarket chain Migros.) patRice np: Jeff Mills, From The 21st nr: Christopher Moore, Minor Wife
