Das pandemische Manifest
(Oekom verlag, 2021-09-17)
Die Corona-Krise wird häufig als Zeitenwende beschrieben. Zwei Wege scheinen von nun an möglich: Der eine überhöht den vorpandemischen Zustand als positiv besetzte Normalität und dreht das Rad zurück. Doch wir können nicht zum Normalen zurück. Denn das Normale war das Problem.
Der andere Weg zieht Lehren aus der Pandemie und beginnt, unser Zusammenleben neu auszubuchstabieren. Der Horizont ist klar: Die Reduzierung von Ungleichheit ohne Gleichmacherei; die Begründung einer freien und leistungsgerechten ...

In this study, we advance an understanding of the socio-cultural values of temporary rivers principally in a European context. We used an ecosystem services-based approach for a participatory and deliberative exercise with 16 researchers and managers. Our results ...

Most sustainability innovations are adapted to the needs of urban areas. These innovations are either not offered at all in rural areas (e.g., car sharing) or require massive effort and restrictions to be usable or effective (e.g., ride sharing). Delving deeper than the description scholarly research needs to clarify consumers' conceptualization of sustainability in urban and rural areas. Notably, the extent to which sustainable innovations are adopted and their associated adoption dynamics with the consequences for ...
