In the meantime, all parties want to protect the climate. However, it is still disputed what the concrete steps and measures should look like. Most politicians, but also economists, still cling to the illusion of "green growth. In fact, however, "green shrinkage" is necessary if we do not want to destroy the earth. The committed economic historian and journalist Ulrike Herrmann shows what "the end of capitalism" could look like. Her lecture in the series "Contours of the Next Society" is also part of the conference "Tun und Lassen. Renunciation between sustainability policy and spiritual search for meaning" of the Commission for Religiosity and Spirituality in the German Society for Empirical Cultural Studies (DGEKW). Speaker: Ulrike Herrmann (economic historian/ author, Berlin) Director of Studies: Josef Mackert
