A Union Battle in late 2026 in Germany | Countercurrents (opens the original)
Read excerpt
With Germany’s export capitalism in deep crisis, German capital has gone on the attack, seeking to destroy the eight-hour workday, lower wages, and push workers ever deeper into job insecurity. German trade unions like IG Metall have vowed to resist this. Most expect a big showdown between labor and capital this coming fall and winter. This might well indicate a move from nationwide efforts to defend jobs, wages and working conditions in the automotive industry to an expansion of workers’ protes
The Magical Four of German Sustainability | Countercurrents (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Recently capitalism in Germany did not do too well – despite the neoliberal promise of eternal growth – economic output increased only slightly in 2025 and 2026, after two years of a marked recession. Germans semi-console themselves with the fact that GDP is hardly higher than in the years of the coronavirus pandemic. In the meantime, the usual crisis of capitalism, cranked up by Russia’s war against Ukraine and Trump’s war against Iran – both unprovoked and with devastating consequences for con
Global Warming and Forest Fire in Germany in 2026 | Countercurrents (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Long before Little Red Riding Hood — or Rotkäppchen — and even before Tacitus’s Germania (98 AD), Germans had a quasi-mythical relationship to their forests. About 150 years ago, the German forest became very important. At that time, a young lawyer by the name of Karl Marx wrote a series of articles published in 1842 in the famous Rheinische Zeitung, or Rhineland News. In English, it is known as “Debates on the Law on Thefts of Wood.” Marx’s articles are about the criminalization of a traditiona
How Workers Use AI in Germany | Countercurrents (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A recent study from Germany shows that those who understand artificial intelligence (AI) are more scared of losing their jobs. So far, experts on Germany’s labor market (a market that sells nothing) and AI had — wrongly — “assumed” that people who know very little about AI were those who most feared losing their jobs because of AI. This assumption was not supported by the recent study. This is why sociological research is needed. It can correct “assumptions” that many people hold — at times with
AI and Deliberative Participation | Countercurrents (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One of the most common empty phrases about artificial intelligence (AI) is that it offers opportunities and challenges. Yet, AI can improve citizen participation when AI is not corrupted by large corporations using AI for profit. Interestingly, in May 2026, the New Yorker asked, “The A.I. Industry Is Booming. When Will It Actually Make Money?” To steer the commercially — and seemingly not yet profitable — defined so-called “landscape of AI” that might be used for participation, the democratic es
