Wie schützt man die Geschichtswissenschaft vor rechtspopulistischem Aktivismus? In diesem Text für Geschichte und Gesellschaft argumentiere ich, dass Wissenschaft besser verstanden und verteidigt werden kann, wenn man sie pragmatisch, und nicht bloß normativ, begreift.

Wieviel Globalgeschichte verträgt der Lehrplan? Plädoyer für eine Revolution. Als ehemaliger Gymnasiallehrer ist es mir eine besondere Freude, diesen Text in der Zeitschrift des Verbandes der Geschichtslehrerinnen und -lehrer Deutschland (@wochenschauverlag.bsky.social) veröffentlichen zu dürfen.

Humanitarian aid is under attack. But where are the attacks coming from? In this short piece, I argue that one should distinguish between two different critiques of humanitarian aid. Progressive (Marxist, decolonial, feminist..) critiques on the one hand, and far-right critiques on the other.
