'Es ist die Kultur, ihr Trottel!'

On the topic why natural sciences alone may not suffice to understand humans, the German quality daily Zeit wonders today about the image and purposes of Geisteswissenschaften in the real world here, and also has a site dedicated to the (German) Year of the Human Sciences, and questions related to this. Only in German, I'm afraid!

Well, what good guidlines for how to defend our discplines. Unfortunately I always forget about them when really being in the situations of having to defend. Maybe we should write a kind of "fact sheet" as remembrance :-)
