Bei der dringend gebotenen Dekarbonisierung des Verkehrssektors sollte die deutsche Autoindustrie eine doppelte Rolle spielen - einerseits die Antriebswende voranbringen, andererseits ihre Technologieführerschaft behaupten. Allerdings droht sie an beiden Aufgaben zu scheitern: Tesla war und ist der Innovationstreiber beim E-Auto, während die Belieferung des Massenmarkts eher chinesischen Unternehmen zugetraut wird. Warum hat die deutsche Autoindustrie die Elektrifizierung so zögerlich und widerwillig betrieben? Timo Daum zeigt, warum die Branche ihren gewohnten technologischen Kurs nicht verlassen konnte - auch nicht angesichts der von Tesla vorgelegten Innovationsdynamik und trotz des absehbaren Ausstiegs aus fossilen Brennstoffen.

Teslas Rolle beim Niedergang der deutschen Autoindustrie

Der Abschied von Golf und Diesel

Modernity was characterised by a belief that progress would automatically lead to a better future. Today, that optimism has evaporated. In its place we have global heating, multiple wars, economic austerity and a prevailing sense of malaise. Now the primary concern is to limit the damage and avert the catastrophe. Even if that succeeds, we will still be faced with unprecedented change. We are looking at a future where collective survival will take precedence over individual and collective self-fulfilment. Adaptation will be the guiding principle of society. This is raising momentous questions about our understanding of time, of politics and of ourselves - to which progressive political forces and humanity as a whole are going to have to find answers.

Automating Government: How AI Will Revolutionise Public Services is a timely and authoritative guide for political leaders, senior managers, and public officials confronting the challenges and opportunities of artificial intelligence. Through dozens of global case studies and clear analysis, it explores how AI can transform public services, such as predictive healthcare, automated social services, and real-time transport systems, leading to improved outcomes and lower costs.While the potential is considerable, the implications are far from straightforward. The book addresses the following critical questions: What will happen to jobs? Can we trust machines to make decisions about people's lives? Will AI reduce inequality or entrench it further?Rich in practical insight and grounded in real-world examples, Automating Government sets out a roadmap for responsible, effective AI adoption in the public sector. It challenges readers to see AI not simply as a tool for efficiency but as a means to build a more capable, inclusive and accountable state fit for the demands of the twenty-first century.

Oxford Handbooks

This handbook on the "New" Space Economy (NSE) offers the first comprehensive analysis of the contemporary space economy. The "new" is characterized by commercialization, greater participation of the private sector, innovation, and increased engagement of national governments. Using multiple approaches, the volume conceptualizes the boundaries of an emerging field of inquiry, characterized by continuity and change and involving terrestrial and extraterrestrial activities. It covers the fundamental economic, institutional, and technological dynamics and assesses the socio-economic impact of the NSE. Largely a US and European phenomenon, the evolution of the NSE in other spacefaring nations such as China, India, Japan, and Russia is also examined. In The Oxford Handbook of the New Space Economy, chapters by both academics and practitioners systematically address the changing institutional arrangements, interactions between public and private actors, and the role of innovations and entrepreneurship. As constellations of satellites for earth observations, telecommunications, the internet, GPS, and other civilian applications tackle climate change and monitor natural disasters, the unsustainability of space activities due to orbital congestion and space debris is a reality. The 1967 UN Outer Space Treaty, which views space as a "global commons," needs revisiting to address regulatory challenges in space mining and other uses of extraterrestrial resources. This volume advances the state of knowledge on the dynamics of an emerging new space economy, identifies key stakeholders, and opens up future research areas for policymaking.

Hacking for Defense: Innovation Doctrine

Urban Future-Making

In an era of rapid change and growing uncertainty, we are facing an urgent question: How can cities be built for futures that defy prediction? The contributors to this volume tackle this challenge by exploring the role of contingency in urban future-making. Through a range of case studies, they examine relevant aims, strategies, and decision-making processes in both past and present contexts. They reveal how unexpected events and unpredictable factors unsettle established urban conditions but also spark new ideas and possibilities for rethinking and reshaping the city. The volume shows how urban future-making involves navigating highly uncertain environments and extreme conditions, opening new spaces of knowledge and action.

This book presents an integrative and in-depth approach to understanding electricity markets. It combines engineering, economics, and regulatory and public policy, with business analysis. The first part of the book presents the key concepts in these fields relevant to the study of electricity markets. Starting with power engineering basics, the book proceeds to explain how these engineering fundamentals, combined with economic and regulatory theory, are used to design and operate successful electricity markets. With this foundation, business analyses of all sectors of the electric power industry -- generation, transmission, distribution, retail supply, energy efficiency, and demand response -- are conducted. The second part of the book contains several chapters on advanced electricity market topics that use the integrative approach developed in the first section. These advanced topics include the history of restructured electricity markets, regulating electricity derivatives, and how to run an energy services company.
