    Abstract: Main description: Georg Forster (1754-1794) hat in seiner berühmten »Reise um die Welt« sowie in den Aufsätzen »Noch etwas über die Menschenraßen« und »Leitfaden zu einer künftigen Geschichte der Menschheit« kenntnisreich und engagiert zu den zentralen Streitfragen der physischen Anthropologie Stellung bezogen. Die vorliegende Untersuchung macht in einer quellenbezogenen Rekonstruktion erstmalig den wissenschaftsgeschichtlichen Anspielungs- und Diskussionshorizont dieser Texte sichtbar und zeigt, wie Forster sich im Spannungsfeld der einschlägigen Debatten und Kontroversen positioniert: Die geplante »neue Anthropologie« hat er nie geschrieben - in ihren Grundlinien wird sie hier dennoch erkennbar.
    Abstract: Main description: In his famous »Voyage Round the World«, and also in his essays »More on the Human Races and Outline for a Future History of Mankind«, Georg Forster (1754-1794) took a knowledgeable and committed stand on the central controversies of physical anthropology. In the form of a source-related reconstruction, the present study is the first to point up the allusions and references to the scientific discussion of the day to be found in these texts, and indicates Forster's position in the context of the relevant debates and controversies. Though he did not live to write the 〉new anthropology〈 that he was planning, its basic outline thus becomes discernible.

    Abstract: Making consumption patterns sustainable is a prerequisite to achieve the goal of sustainable development. Ten years after the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, it is time to ask: are OECD countries moving towards sustainable consumption? What are the best policy options to effectively promote sustainable consumption?. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of household consumption patterns in five key areas: food, tourism-related travel, energy, water and waste generation. It brings together the various elements of household consumption that are necessary to better understand consumpti
