Chair Sustainable Development
The Chair of Political Science with a focus on sustainable development was established in November 2016. The empirical-analytical policy field research related to current and future problems of the governance of sustainability is the focus of the chair's activities. Amongst others, political processes of bioeconomy policy, climate policy, environmental policy and sustainable regional development are researched. This includes the linkage to current concepts of sustainability reserach. Another special focus of the research is the question of how knowledge transfer and policy advisory systems must be designed in order to promote political change towards sustainable development. Concepts of sustainability research such as interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity as well as the idea of "transformative science" and its promises are critically examined from a political science perspective. The medium and long-term objective of the professorship's research is to develop a specific political science research approach to sustainable development.
