Wissenschaft oder Dummheit

Abstract

Several technocratic reforms, which tried to adapt universities to the requirement of capitalist economy took place in Germany during the last forty years. Not only the content of the subjects but also the way of education have changed, the stress put on the students has increased. By all this the character of scientific training, the possibility to develop a scientific attitude has altered fundamentally towards a neoliberal "Halbbildung", a systematically reduced view on the world and the society.
