Is Covid-19 a dread risk? The death toll of the pandemic year 2020 in long-term and transnational perspective
Dread risks" are threats that can have catastrophic consequences. To analyse this issue we use excess mortality and corresponding life years lost as simple measures of the severity of pandemic events. As such, they are more robust than figures from models and testing procedures that usually inform public responses. We analyse data from OECD countries that are already fully available for the whole of 2020. To assess the severity of the pandemic, w…

Having or Doing Intellectual Property Rights? Transgenic Seed on the Edge between Refeudalisation and Napsterisation
In contrast to neoliberal rhetoric, the commercialisation of knowledge has proved to be an intricate endeavour that implies unexpected effects. Taking Monsanto's transgenic canola and its propertisation regime as an example, we will shed some light on the counterintuitive phenomenon that strong intellectual property rights are in heavy contrast to the liberal utopia of full commodification,i.e.universal competition and ideal type market relations…
Schule in der Wissensgesellschaft
Das deutsche Schulsystem ist in seiner Struktur, Organisation und Ã1⁄4berwiegend praktizierten Unterrichtsform ein Dinosaurier des Industriezeitalters - so die These des Buches. Daher auch das schlechte Abschneiden bei PISA. Wechselseitige SchuldvorwÃ1⁄4rfe zwischen Elternhaus, Schule und Politik helfen hier nichts, das Gerede vom Erziehungsnotstand in den Familien, von den faulen Lehrern und den dummen SchÃ1⁄4ler ist erstens empirisch haltlos un…

Germany
Germany is the EU member state with the most difficult situation (besides Austria) for marketing genetically modified (GM) crops and food. At the same time, it shows the least administrative effort to respond to the reasons for this situation – public suspicion and protest. Regulators advocate specific precaution-related measures, including marketstage monitoring; these measures, however, do not relate to the primary demands of critics and oppone…
Reflexive Modernisierung und technisch-industriell erzeugte Umweltprobleme - Ein Rekonstruktionsversuch in präzisierender Absicht
Die Theorie reflexiver Modernisierung argumentiert, daß sich insbesondere aufgrund der ökologischen Rückwirkungen industrieller Expansion gegenwärtig ein grundlegender Wandel hin zu einer ’anderen‘, ’zweiten Moderne‘ vollziehe. In einer kritischen Rekonstruktion wird versucht, diese These systematischer auf die empirischen Details der ’Umweltgeschichte‘ moderner Gesellschaften zu beziehen. Dazu wird modelltheoretisch zwischen drei aufeinander auf…
