Seminar paper from the year 2022 in the subject Didactics - Common Didactics, Educational Objectives, Methods, grade: 1,0, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, language: English, abstract: The aim of this paper is to show to what extent matters of environmental sustainability are anchored in the Norwegian curriculum in comparison to the Bavarian curriculum. Specifically, this means examining how many areas of the curricula address environmental aspects by looking at the chapters for mentions of them. This is to be done with the help of a qualitative content analysis of the curricula, followed by a critical comparison. However, this is by no means a complete evaluation of the Norwegian or the German curriculum but merely a review of the presence and interdisciplinary inclusion of environmental sustainability, sustainable development, and education for sustainable development in the various curricula. Responsible use of the earth's available resources is one of the most fundamental guiding themes of our time. Environmental changes affect society and everyday life, creating enormous challenges for the present, but especially for future generations. Whether it is energy consumption, the use of raw materials, waste disposal or the volume of traffic – new solutions need to be found urgently so that the basis of human life can be permanently preserved. However, all aspects of sustainable development and their interactions shall always be taken into account. The fact that children and in particular teenagers see sustainable development as a pressing issue for the future is demonstrated, for example, by the worldwide activities of "Fridays for Future" and similar global social movements. And since one essential goal of education is to provide young people with orientation and enable them to take responsibility for shaping their own future, the education system has a crucial role to play here.

This book builds on the insights of Günther Bachmann, former Secretary General for the German Sustainability Council, who spent almost 20 years advising the German government on sustainability policy. The book discusses his experiences in negotiating stakeholder statements at the highest national levels. Bachmann takes the reader behind the scenes of German sustainable policy and practice, whilst also comparing Germany with other national approaches. He tells the story of political events from his insider perspective, unfolding the narrative of sustainable development goals and how activists in their respective countries could and should relate to it. Furthermore, he suggests new lines of vision through the tangle of conference fatigue and buzzwords. The book argues that environmentalists often display entrenched attitudes that too often downplay success. The rhetoric of crisis and doom, if overstretched and reduced to alarm, paralyses action and innovation. Bachmann, who on the contrary argues positively and concretely, shows unusual but significant signs of hope and confidence in action and how these can be made effective in the politics of sustainable development. This book will be of global relevance to sustainability professionals and policy makers and will advise them on how to successfully move ahead with sustainability policies.

New knowledge, created in international cooperation, is essential for global sustainability. Set against this background, this study focuses on German science policy for research cooperation with developing countries and emerging economies in sustainability research. Based on interviews with policy makers and researchers, the book scrutinizes the actors, processes and contents of science policy in Germany. The author argues that science policy mainly aims at German economic benefits and technology development. This, however, negatively influences global sustainability. To counter existing path dependencies, the author provides recommendations for sustainability-oriented scientific practice and science policy.

Japan and Germany as the number two and three of the economic powers base their success more than others on their industries. These have created in the past heavy environmental hazards (Minamata disease and 'Waldsterben'), which again led to the fact that they have become leaders in environmental technologies and protection. This volume presents the most outstanding contributions of a conference organised at the Musashi Institute of Technology, Yokohama, in October 2002, by the German-Japanese Society of Social Sciences, which assembles some of the most prominent specialists in the field of both countries.

German competition law has been witnessing a long-standing discussion on how and to what extent non-economic goals can and should play a role in the application of the German Act against Restraints of Competition (GWB). Recently, this discussion has centered on sustainability as a partly economic, partly non-economic goal, which is universally recognised, but seems to lack a clear-cut definition (see Section 2.1). Indeed, promoting sustainability, in particular with regard to climate protection and the protection of human rights in supply chains, is currently one of the most prominent hot topics in economic law in many jurisdictions. In Germany as well as in Europe, not only company law and capital market law, but also competition law has come into the focus of this debate. At the outset, it should be stressed that most scholars and practitioners in Germany share the view that sustainability, in particular climate protection, and competition law do not usually collide, as competition promotes an efficient use of resources in line with sustainability targets (see Section 3.1). However, conflicts may arise, in particular in situations of market failure (see Section 2.2). This discussion is not completely new. As a spin-off of the debate and the vast scholarship on (certain) non-economic goals and competition policy, the period between (at least) the early 1970s and the late 1990s saw an intense discussion on German competition law vis-á-vis environmental protection, in particular with regard to so-called self-restraint agreements by undertakings (Selbstbeschränkungsvereinbarungen) and regulation on waste disposal. Besides, since the 1990s, several German monographs have been devoted to the topic, placing a focus on European competition law. Especially since 2020, the discussion has gained traction again in light of the broader concept of sustainability, but is still focussing on environmental aspects, as evidenced by a steady stream of recent articles in German journals and commemorative publications. From a legal perspective, this renewed attention on sustainability-related matters is motivated by international law obligations for climate protection, both by European law and by German constitutional law (see Section 2.1). Another important driver is the practical need for companies to react to the aforementioned developments: Companies must adapt to new laws on supply chain liability and sustainable finance, to increasing societal pressure to stop ESG-irresponsible practices and to growing consumer demand for ESG compatible business behaviour and products. For these reasons, several companies have already approached the German Federal Cartel Office for advice on whether they can pursue joint sustainability initiatives (see Section 3). Against this background and in view of recent policy activities in other jurisdictions such as the Netherlands and on EU level, the current German government has announced that it will examine whether changes in the German Act against restraints of competition (Gesetz gegen Wettbewerbsbeschränkungen - GWB) to facilitate sustainability initiatives are in order (see Section 4).
