Prof. Dr. Ludger Heidbrink, KCG Senior Research Fellow and Chair of Practical Philosophy, is engaged in a new research project “Finite world and open future. Finality and growth criticism in contemporary political thought” in cooperation with Prof. Dr. Tine Stein from the University Göttingen.

The linkage between life-time and world-time did not only contribute to the persistency of the modern idea of growth, but led equally to a crisis of the growth-based model of society[…]

Many industrialised countries have initiated new policy measures and/or adjusted the existing ones to support the implementation of the AfT Initiative. One example is Germany[…]
