Editorial Profile

Climate change, pandemic, financial crisis, global migration: in the 21st century, crises are ­omnipresent and closely linked to scientific, technical and social issues. Technical innovations, for example, can help to mitigate climate change. Research and science play a crucial role here ­because they explain how the global ecosystem functions and at the same time point out ­measures to be taken. However, the ecological crisis is above all a social problem, because political actors must regulate wisely and distribute the social consequences of this regulation fairly.
