Genauso wie man den deutschen (deutschsprachigen) Sonderweg der Habilitation endlich aufgeben sollte, sollte man die Ausbeutung der Privatdozent*innen durch unentgeltliche Titellehre sein lassen. Sie ist ein Instrument der sozialen Auslese.
Ich habe unterschrieben. Unterschreib Du auch!

Am 11. Juli 1995 begann der Völkermord von Srebrenica. 30 Jahre später fragt Ger Duijzings auf z|o, welche Lehren sich daraus ziehen lassen und verweist auf die Gewalt im Gazastreifen.

ICMP's Podrinje Identification Project (PIP) was formed to deal with the identification primarily of victims of 1995 Srebrenica massacre. PIP includes a facility for storing, processing, and handling exhumed remains. Much of the remains are only fragments or commingled body fragments since they were recovered from secondary mass graves.

If you wondered why the EU is ignoring protests in #Serbia, look no further.

The EU (ofc in agreement with Serbia's corrupt regime, how else) has declared the Jadar mining project strategic.

This is bound to devastate an entire region, in the name of "green transition," which is anything but.
