Institute of Ethics and Transdisciplinary Sustainability Research

Organisational unit: Institute

Professorship for Ethics in Business and Sustainability

Organisation profile

In the professorship, we address three main challenges for the fulfilment of this aspiration:

Consolidate the epistemological and methodological foundations of transdisciplinary sustainability research.
Enhance research at the science/society interface that has both scientific and societal relevance.
Enable students, researchers and societal actors to contribute to societal transformation with local and global impact.

We are rooted/embedded in the Faculty of Sustainability and collaborate with different institutes at Leuphana and research institutions from around the world as well as with different societal actors and institutions from the private and public sector in Lueneburg and beyond.

We creatively combine conceptual and empirical research with the development of new formats and environments.

Topics

Im Bereich der Forschung liegt der Schwerpunkt von Dissertationen und Drittmittelprojekten im Bereich der Wirtschaftsethik im Zeichen der Globalisierung, in der Staatsphilosophie sowie in aktuellen Fragen der Medizinethik.

Auch hier ist der transdisziplinär verstandene Nachhaltigkeitsbegriff das Band, welches den Umgang mit ethischen Dilemmata in verschiedenen Wissenschafts- und Lebensbereichen miteinander verbindet.

Besonderes Gewicht wird problemorientierten Lernprozessen mit intensivem, wechselseitigem Austausch zwischen Wissenschaftlern/-innen unterschiedlicher Disziplinen sowie relevanten gesellschaftlichen Akteuren beigemessen. Ethik wird in diesem Kontext als eine Begleitwissenschaft verstanden, der eine Schlüsselrolle in inter- und transdisziplinärer Forschung zu Themen der nachhaltigen Entwicklung zukommt.
