There are no human races, only a “human race”. Whether genetics or crime statistics - many racist narratives claim “the science” for themselves. “MAITHINK X” puts this to the test.

Food security and environmental protection are always in conflict. However, we have to feed the population and at the same time safeguard our biological basis of life. A large proportion of our native animal and plant species are threatened with extinction and the situation is getting worse. Agricultural policy has no answer to this, nor does it help agriculture to take more sustainable paths. Science says that we must not play agriculture and nature conservation off against each other. So what do we need to do for biodiversity and food security?

He is attracting attention through controversial appearances, but in the background Republican hardliners have been planning a systematic shift of power to the right and the undermining of democratic institutions for years. “MAITHINK X” looks behind Trump's theater at the concrete plans of the American right, which are less sensational but all the more dangerous. How can even a supposedly stable democracy start to topple and what are the gateways for this to happen in Germany too?

There is a shortage of workers in many sectors - often precisely where relief is urgently needed. At the same time, more and more younger people no longer want to work full-time or are burnt out. Typical GenZ, say some - New Work 2.0 claim others. “MAITHINK X” also works on Sundays and gets to the bottom of the question: Is the 4-day week a sensible working model for the future?
