The book series “THE NEW INSTITUTE.Interventions” aims at strengthening the voice of the humanities in public and political discourse. Its publications present the work of the fellows of THE NEW INSTITUTE, based in Hamburg, which brings together changemakers from academia, activism, the arts, media, government, and business to collectively generate new ideas and solutions for the most pressing problems facing humanity today. By linking up such diverse perspectives and mindsets in a highly collaborative effort, THE NEW INSTITUTE strives to create fresh, groundbreaking approaches for tackling some of the most complex challenges of our time. Through such a collectively produced body of knowledge that includes both astute analyses and fundamental reconfigurations in various key areas of society, our “Interventions” will hopefully provoke and fuel constructive debates across disciplinary and sectoral boundaries. All texts in the series are published Open Access under a CC license to facilitate the widest possible reach for these conceptual and practical impulses.
