visionary/visionär这个词我很喜欢，它有两个意思，第一个是幻觉的，幻象的，天马行空的：in der Art einer Vision, traumhaft；第二个是有远见的，有洞察力的（并且能以艺术、技艺的方式实现的）：Visionen der Zukunft habend (und künstlerisch gestaltend), seherisch. 这两个意思连接在一个词里指出了“洞察力”和“预见性”的一个重要方面就是想象力和非理性，这是用中文没法直接发现和理解的联系。扼杀想象力也是在扼杀有远见的人。

Klimaaktivisten haben offenbar ein bekanntes Motiv auf einem ehemaligen Stück der Berliner Mauer beschmiert. Der Slogan in roter Farbe ist demnach eine klare politische Botschaft Richtung Nahost.

Participate the IAREP in Tartu, Estonia. I presented my first year’s PhD work: Modern Slavery and Mistrust. I am glad that I am awarded the second best PhD student paper by IAREP and ELSEVIER! This recognition is truly motivating, especially given the high quality of research presented! #IAREP2025

The difference between influence and academic achievement 😂

Gewei Cao @karlcao.bsky.social · Feb 20

Hayek wrote the book “The road to serfdom”, and now Stiglitz wrote the book “The road to freedom”. Social democratic institutions are preferred by some economists now. Volkswirtschaftwissenschaft is now needed to be addressed the political part
