Proposals for a new conservative climate narrative

Engaging conservative groups for a technology-open, market-based, and internationally climate policy

The German climate debate is highly polarized and hardly convinces the conservative middle. The gap between aspiration and reality is too large. This conservative middle takes the climate problem seriously but feels patronized by state interventions. A new narrative is needed to reach this middle and win them over for effective and efficient climate policy. This conservative climate narrative is based on market-based, technology-open, and internationally oriented approaches, with emissions trading as the key instrument of climate policy.

Stress test for Germany's domestic security

Responses to multiple crises and internationally networked actors

In 2024, the Federal Republic of Germany faces various threats in the area of domestic security. International crises not only influence extremist actors in their ideological developments, but also motivate them to commit criminal offences and acts of violence. At the same time, the lines between the individual groups and phenomena are becoming blurred as selective collaborations and structural ideological overlaps are emerging. In addition, the influence of foreign actors is growing and links between Germany and abroad are increasing significantly.

Securing prosperity and sustainably

Successful structural change through climate-neutral industrialisation

How can the generally desired structural change towards climate-neutral industries be achieved? In Germany, the path to this goal can vary considerably from state to state: Federal States with existing industries need to secure a larger supply of clean energy, while states in the north in particular already produce more than enough clean electricity but do not have enough industrial customers for it. In our study the authors look particularly at Schleswig-Holstein as an example.

Key regional players in the new global order

India, Kenya, Columbia, Turkey

In times of global power shifts and geopolitical fragmentation, it is a challenge for Germany and the European Union to build stable and mutually attractive partnerships. The perspective of the (potential) partner countries is rarely taken into account. What are their central interests, what specific dependencies characterise their foreign policy decisions, in which regional orders are they integrated? And what determines their view of Germany and the EU? This project is dedicated to these and other questions. With India, Kenya, Colombia and Turkey, four countries from four regions of the world were analysed and their foreign policy positions examined more closely. The result is an attempt to draw conclusions for the (foreign) policy of Germany and the European Union in dealing with these and other countries with which strategic partnerships are to be intensified and expanded.

Islamism in East Germany

Current trends and challenges

In the eastern German federal states, the activities and membership numbers of groups in the Islamist phenomenon are relatively modest. However, this should not obscure the fact that the scene has changed significantly over the last ten years, both quantitatively and qualitatively: the potential number of Islamist individuals has grown steadily in all eastern German federal states during this period and Islamist actors and organisations have increased their local activities, founded associations, taken over prayer rooms and recruited followers.

Synergies of Blockchain and AI

Improving Europe’s Digital Sovereignty

The study analyzes the development of a European AI ecosystem underpinned by a sovereign data marketplace and federated learning. The approach presented aims to strengthen Europe's technological sovereignty in the age of Artificial Intelligence (AI) by outlining a blockchain-based vision for ‘AI Made in Europe’. The approach focuses on three main components: the optimization of digital infrastructures and data management, the support of companies, especially start-ups and SMEs, and the development and use of innovative data marketplaces.’ Potential use cases include healthcare, urban development, and industry.

Social market economy - what does it really mean?

The principles and goals of the social market economy explained in ten chapters.

The social market economy is one of the most successful economic and social models that has ever existed. It makes it possible to combine economic growth with social cohesion. The promise made in Ludwig Erhard's programme "Prosperity through Competition" has largely come true. In order to be able to fulfil this promise in the future, it is worth constantly reminding ourselves of the central elements of the social market economy. These include private property, competition, price stability and a fair distribution of income and wealth.
