Summary

Im Zentrum des Bandes steht die Frage, welche Rolle der Wissenschaft bei der Findung von Antworten auf die Herausforderungen der nachhaltigen Entwicklung zukommt bzw. zukommen sollte. Die Beiträge präsentieren einen ambitionierten Überblick sowohl über die Grundlagendebatten als auch über die anwendungsorientierten Reflexionen über Themen wie Wasser, das Anthropozän-Konzept und die Mensch-Tier-Beziehungen.
