Dezember 2025, Fulda, Deutschland) untersucht die Schnittstellen zwischen der Krise der liberalen Demokratie und den Herausforderungen des Anthropoz\u00e4ns. In einer Zeit, in der \u201ePolykrisen\u201c wie Klimawandel, die Erosion demokratischer Normen und \u00f6kologische Kipppunkte unsere Epoche pr\u00e4gen, stellt sich die Frage, wie soziale Vertr\u00e4ge und demokratische Regierungsformen f\u00fcr die Zukunft neu gedacht werden k\u00f6nnen. Indem die Konferenz Debatten aus der Politischen Philosophie, den Sozialwissenschaften und dem Anthropoz\u00e4n-Diskurs zusammenf\u00fchrt, sollen scheinbar gegens\u00e4tzliche Ans\u00e4tze als Ressourcen f\u00fcr innovative Dialoge genutzt werden. Wir laden Beitr\u00e4ge ein, die sich kritisch mit Demokratie, Governance und sozialen Vertr\u00e4gen unter den Bedingungen des Anthropoz\u00e4ns auseinandersetzen und kollektive Zuk\u00fcnfte jenseits der Krise entwerfen.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Abstracts:<\/strong>300-500 W\u00f6rter<\/li>\n<li><strong>Deadline: <\/strong>October 26, 2025<\/li>\n<li><strong>Einreichung:<\/strong> <a title=\"muriel.wenzel@sk.hs-fulda.de\" href=\"mailto:muriel.wenzel@sk.hs-fulda.de\">muriel.wenzel@sk.hs-fulda.de<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-229e116 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"229e116\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c9ba0e6\" data-id=\"c9ba0e6\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-27e1bd1 elementor-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"27e1bd1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pari-geisa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Call-for-Papers_Thinking-beyond-Crisis_Dec-2025.pdf\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"far fa-file-pdf\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Call for papers<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>International Conference &#8221;Social Contracts and Democracy in Times of the Anthropocene&#8221;-Call for Papers Fulda University of Applied Sciences 16.12.2025-18.12.2025 The international conference Social Contracts and Democracy in Times of the Anthropocene: Thinking Beyond Crisis (December 16\u201318, 2025, Fulda, Germany) explores the intersections between the crisis of liberal democracy and the challenges of the Anthropocene.
