One crisis follows the next - we live in a permanent state of emergency. But what exactly does that mean? Can crises only be diagnosed and mitigated, but no longer overcome? Is stability an irredeemable wish? Do all attempts at control only create new problems? The lecture series presents different approaches and actors in dealing with social crises: from theoretical approaches to practical procedures and collegial search processes.
Demographic change and the restructuring of the welfare state have created care gaps, so that the commitment of associations, neighborhoods or digital networks is increasingly being called upon. At the same time, scientific studies on climate change and biodiversity also show the persistent unsustainability and "carelessness" of socio-technical and socio-ecological systems. The opening session combines two crisis diagnoses that are often separated in public discourse: the care crisis and the technology crisis.
