Inhalte
The autumn school provides an introduction to the subject area of technoscience, environment and society. Students learn about different perspectives on how the interdependence of technology, the environment and society can be analysed. The global challenges of the present are identified as they are referred to in various discourses, such as the Anthropocene, irreversible plastic pollution, the loss of biodiversity, environmental conflicts and security, science diplomacy or the opportunities and risks of emerging eco-technological artefacts. Accordingly, this course is focussed on the reciprocity of theory and practice, for example by examining technical artefacts in museums or outdoors, in working with case studies about nature-culture relationships, or doing a project in a creative collaborative virtual environment on an open simulator platform.
