I’ve often wondered where I come from, where I’m going and what “binds creation’s inmost energies”. I’m interested in economics – but not the kind that is limited exclusively to mathematics, strives for-profit, and leaves people out with its complex needs for simple cost/benefit analyses.
I’ve always wondered why it’s always economists that tell us about crises in the media and philosophers are never asked for a solution. I wonder whether our politicians have ever read Hobbes, Marx, or Kierkegaard. I don’t want to choose between a world of numbers and one of words and deeds.
I long for answers to the questions about the equitable coexistence of fair trade and fair society reforms and often only find criticism of the thinkers’ and philosophers’ suggestions. I’m interested in politics as a practical tool of reason and am fascinated by the differences in cultures that clash with the globalization of economies.
I also wonder if there’s an economic system that doesn’t have a long-term effect of destroying the planet. Maybe there’s a different approach that brings prosperity for all and is an alternative to what we already have.

University location
Situated in the Rhine River plain, between the Black Forest, Alsace, and Palatinate, Karlsruhe is a lively cultural and academic centre with some 290,000 inhabitants. It is situated at the centre of a dynamically growing industrial and technology region with the highest concentration of researchers in Europe.
The city is renowned for its “joie de vivre” – people here know how to enjoy life. The city boasts a varied cultural scene with concerts, museums, galleries, and several theatres. “Das Fest” – the largest non-commercial open-air event in Germany, with over 100,000 spectators annually – takes place in Karlsruhe. With 30,000 students, it is an exceptionally lively city for young people. More than 1,800 hours of sun per year, a relaxed, southern ambience, extensive parks right in the middle of the city, cafés, cinemas, and a lively pedestrian shopping area offer a broad range of leisure activities.
