Simon Schaupp thinks things through together and, as \u201eDie Zeit\u201c wrote, you come out of this reading a different person than when you went in. The \u201eFrankfurter Allgemeine\u201c wrote that this study was \u201ecaptivating\u201c.<\/p>\n<p>If we want to understand the ecological crisis, we need to understand the world of work, says the author. It is through labour that societies carry out their metabolism with nature. For Simon Schaupp, labour policy is therefore always also environmental policy - or \u00bbmetabolic policy\u00ab. Nature itself plays an active role in this: the further its utilisation is driven forward, the more drastically it affects the world of work.<\/p>\n<p>The sociologist uses a number of historical examples to show how productive this perspective is: Without mosquitoes, neither the rise nor the decline of the plantation economy can be understood. The enforcement of trade unions was made possible, among other things, by the new levers of power that the material properties of coal gave the workers. And in early slaughterhouses, striking workers put pressure on the employers by bringing the newly introduced assembly lines to a standstill, so that the decaying animal carcasses soon piled up.<\/p>\n<p>Moderation <strong>Robert Misik<\/strong>, Author and journalist<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Simon Schaupp<\/strong><\/em> is a senior assistant at the Chair of Social Structure Analysis. His research focuses on the transformation of the world of work, digitalisation and the ecological crisis. He is currently also leading the research project \"ecological stubbornness\" at the Frankfurt Institute for Social Research. His award-winning dissertation \u201eTechnopolitics from Below\u201c was published by Matthes &amp; Seitz Berlin in 2021. He is a member of the editorial board of the journal \u201eWork, Employment and Society\u201c. Simon Schaupp studied sociology, social sciences and law in Bielefeld and Vienna. From 2016-2018 he was a research associate at the Munich Centre for Technology in Society at the Technical University of Munich and in 2022\/23 a visiting professor at KIT, Karlsruhe.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Robert Misik im Gespr\u00e4ch mit Simon Schaupp STOFFWECHSELPOLITIK Eine ganz gro\u00dfe Geschichte der Wechselwirkung von Produktion und Natur.
