Four big themes really matter to our world: 1. Necessary transitions to secure our survival on the planet. 2. Decreasing confidence in political will/ability to do what is necessary. 3. Structural undermining of the working class through continuous technological development and its uncritical acceptance …

I love technology. We live technology; technology is as ubiquitous as nature used to be. It has reduced biodiversity and cultural diversity, creating a dangerous global uniformity with pollution, deforestation, climate problems and boredom and loneliness, also on a global scale. A lot of technology has …

It seems to hold that organisms either remain small, flexible and adaptive, or become relatively strong and invulnerable by growing very large. Denmark vs America, or Iceland vs China. A single-celled animal, such as the slipper animalcule, has a very strong strategy, and although we have run into serious …

We have come to understand our world less and less, despite the countless one-liners (and slogans) that influencers and advertising people are constantly shooting at us via social media, among other things. We can no longer describe our world - it has simply become too complex for that.

Since the Corona pandemic, especially in the US, there has been the so-called Great Resignation, a total reconsideration. According …

Humanity has created a world where many people can live in relative wealth at the same time (7.2% of all people who have ever lived are alive right now!) It 's fantastic that mass communication has made global inequality painfully visible, resulting in increasingly one humanity. But at the same time, …

Inclusive labour contributes to the individual human need to realize a meaningful socially integrated existence. However, we are quite lost on what that could/should look like, if it is to be sustainable for both us and our planet! As impossible as it may be, the formulation of needs on a global level, …

Voltaire wrote of the Frenchwoman Gabrielle Emilie Le Tonnelier that she was a great man, with only one fault, namely that she was a woman! She was a great mathematician, but being a woman she got little credit for that. She was not alone. This is truly a global problem that we must solve together! Being …
