    Germany is a case study — perhaps the case study — of a Western middle power which made a strategic bet on a full embrace of interdependence and globalization in the late 20th century: it outsourced its security to the U.S., its export-led growth to China, and its energy needs to Russia. It is now finding itself excruciatingly vulnerable in an early 21st century characterized by great power competition and an increasing weaponization of interdependence by allies and adversaries alike. The war in Ukraine, which touches on almost every one of Germany’s bilateral, regional, and global interests, only accentuates its exposure. That this horrific conflict is taking place in the region that was part of the “Bloodlands” (the term coined by Yale historian Timothy Snyder), where Hitler and (to a lesser degree) Stalin murdered tens of millions of people is lost on few of my fellow citizens.

    For much of the three decades after German reunification in 1990, Berlin saw Moscow (as well as Beijing) as a reliable strategic partner in a two-way bargain: Germany would import cheap energy, and export good governance in much the way that Eastern Europe had been transformed through entry into NATO and the EU. Ultimately, German policymakers hoped, this would transform not only these countries’ economies but also their political systems. And they believed — in an attempt to reconfigure West Germany’s Cold War Ostpolitik for a united Germany in the middle of Europe — that NATO and the European Union could and should be encompassed in a pan-European security architecture that included Russia.

    The Kremlin, for its part, saw Germany as a friend, a partner, and as a strategic bridgehead into Europe — not least because it was importing roughly a third of its oil and gas from Russia. What the Germans called their “modernization partnership” with Moscow made for excellent business for a while; but in every other way, it proved to be a failure. Economic integration turned out to be strictly downstream, while many German businesses got burned by corruption and organized crime; political reform remained elusive.

    Abstract
    The purpose of the article is to present the evolution of the political agenda of the German Green Party (Die Grünen) between 1980 (establishment of the party, its first program manifesto – Das Bundesprogramm) and 2017 (recent German federal elections program – Zukunft Wird aus Mut Gemacht. Bundestagswahlprogramm). The research was conducted on the basis of the literature and the comparison of the two mentioned program manifestos. The hypothesis of the work is that the successes of the Greens in West Germany mainly result from the ideological, program, and strategic reorientation of the party that took place at the turn of 1980s and 1990s.

    TUHO: Decarbonization efforts and sustainability transformations represent highly contested socio-political projects. Yet, they often encounter various forms of depoliticization. This article illuminates how a grand socio-ecological challenge like the energy transition gets depoliticized by an unusual suspect, namely Germany's Green Party. Based on a qualitative content analysis of Green Party programs, party conventions, and additional documents published between 1980 and 2021, this article traces how the Green Party has depoliticized the energy transition over time, emphasizing a shift from radical societal change to ecological modernization. The changing stance of the German Greens on the country's energy transition reflects more profound changes of a future society the party collectively envisions through their energy and climate change agenda. These changes result from a struggle between moderates advocating incremental political reforms and radicals aiming for more fundamental and systemic societal change. By merging sustainability transition research with science and technology studies, this article makes a twofold contribution: First, it proposes a conceptual framework to investigate social and political futures envisioned through energy and climate politics. Second, the article empirically demonstrates the long process of depoliticization for an unusual but critical case. Germany's Green Party has embraced a technocentric vision of the energy transition, thereby suppressing earlier notions of broader societal change, such as anti-capitalism and energy democracy. This article spells out implications for the wider field of energy and climate politics and concludes with suggestions for future research.

    MATT: ... but hedge funds will be ok .)

    Hedge funds have made major bets on the price of the commodity this year, with speculators gambling more than $8bn (£6.3bn) that prices would continue to rise, according to the Financial Times. But none of the money will make it to smallholder producers in west Africa, with Ghana and Ivory Coast having already sold this year’s crop through a cartel, leaving many farmers disgruntled

    Macron calls proposed EU-Mercosur trade pact ‘very bad deal’ lacking strong climate commitments | Emmanuel Macron | The Guardian
    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/28/emmanuel-macron-eu-mercosur-trade-pact-bad-deal-climate-commitments

    “There is nothing that takes into consideration the subject of biodiversity and climate – nothing,” Macron said. “Let’s forge a new deal in light of our goals and reality, a trade deal that is responsible on development, climate and biodiversity.”

    While Brazil has said it is ready to sign a deal, France has repeatedly expressed reservations and said its farmers have objected to the prospect that could allow in agricultural imports, notably beef, that do not meet strict EU standards.

    Drilling Deeper 2024: Global Oil & Gas Extraction Tracker - Global Energy Monitor
    https://globalenergymonitor.org/report/drilling-deeper-2024-global-oil-gas-extraction-tracker/

    Globally last year, oil and gas producers sanctioned and discovered the equivalent of all the proven oil reserves in Europe. They aim to quadruple the amount sanctioned by the end of the decade, despite scientific consensus that any new field developments are incompatible with scenarios to limit temperature increases to 1.5°C, finds a new report from Global Energy Monitor.

    Data in the Global Oil and Gas Extraction Tracker show at least 20 fields reached final investment decision in 2023, sanctioning the extraction of eight billion barrels of oil equivalent (boe). By the end of the decade, companies are aiming to sanction nearly four times that amount — 31.2 billion boe across 64 additional fields. In addition, 19 new fields containing roughly 7.7 boe were discovered in 2023.

    pokud je predmetem studia takovy system, kde clovek pusobi tak, ze to vede k podporeni procesu vzniku biomasy+nekromasy pudy (od fotosyntezy ke stsbilnim formam uhliku v pude), tak aby se toto dalo studovat, musi to take existovat, probihat. muze to byt zcasti v domene pedologie, z jinych casti to bude v domene vedy o systemech.

    TADEAS: no víš, mě by zajímaly i jiný parametry, než obsah C v humusovým horizontu. různý půdy mají různej režim a různej obsah živin, kterej když nebudeš dodávat, tak vyčerpáš. agronomové to vědí a dodávají půdě živiny zvenku, aby se nevyčerpala, případně aby vůbec plodila, a to i když chceš například vypěstovat les pro dřevo. jsou na to letitý tabulky kolik čeho pro co.
    v prezentacích o regeneračním zemědělství mi zatím chybí celkový vyhodnocení bonity v čase, případně elementární informace, na jakým typu půdy pracují. základní pedologická charakteristika má svou strukturu a sorvnání metod a výsledků nemůžeš dělat na obecným materiálu. no a tak stále dokola :)

    ad veda - nemáš tak pravdu, viz výše, pokud nemáš kontrolovaný podmínky, můžeš chybně považovat koincidenci za kauzalitu atp.

    PALEONTOLOG: "co jde" muze vyzkoumat veda na zaklade toho, ze to nekdo udelal, at uz v zavislosti nebo nezavisle na nejakem typu vědění.

    tema je management systémů, podtema je management ekosystemu, napr. ekosystemu pudy. "regenerace", regenerativita muze byt kontext cloveka, ktery ten management vykonava, uplatnuje svou agency vuci tomu systemu. ten kontext, definice toho co chce a jak toho dosahuje je klicova pro ty rozhodnuti.

    "hospodaření"/management neni veda. existuje urcite veda/vedeni o managementu systémů, potazmo o regenerativnim managementu ekosystemu.

    "regenerativni zpusob hospodareni neni vhodnej pro XY" -- regenerace muze byt kontext pro management toho daneho eko/systemu, neexistuje nic jako "regenerativni zpusob hospodareni" ve smyslu nejaky dokola uplatnovany sady praktik. to je predstava traktoristy se zakladkou .]

    Paleontologu, vyrábím půdu, když na pozemku s mizernou bonitou (10cm drn, pak už jíl, jíl s kamením a kamení, Vysočina, údolní niva u potoka) vyhrabu díru do 50-70 cm, nahážu tam větve, dřevěné uhlí, písek, hnůj a kompost, promíchám s ornicí (z místa nebo odjinud)? Nebo bys to nazval jen "zúrodnění" - a půda vznikne, až už mi to bude jedno ...

    TADEAS: víš, míchat pojmy je prostě na hovno, vracíme se k tomu stále dokola. každý si to pak vykládá jak chce a takhle věda skutečně nefunguje. a pak si myslím, že regenerativní způsob hospodaření není vhodnej pro každou půdu, specificky jílovitější půdy takhle obdělávat nejdou a na chudých půdách s implicitně nízkou bonitou se bez hnojiv neobejdeš vůbec. a tak by se dalo pokračovat. tady míš seznam půd k pokochání:

    to že ty si napíšeš - já chci udělat černozem - naráží na to, že ani netušíš, v jakých podmínkách může exitovat a co ji definuje, na jakým substrátu vzniká. pak prostě plácáš, což odhalí odborník na první dobrou. možná ti to přijde ok, mě ne, je to plácání laika v louži o hloubce 0,5cm.
