byThomas Robert Malthus

Genres: Philosophy Modern Ethical Dilemmas

Who is this book for? Readers interested in philosophy, economics, and social sciences.

Topics SurvivalPowerMoralitySocial Class

MoodReflective

Der Entdecker der »Bevölkerungsfalle« neu gelesen: ein Klassiker der Nationalökonomie aus dem Giftschrank der Ideengeschichte. Seinen Kritikern galt er als Vertreter eines brutalen Sozialdarwinismus, seinen Bewunderern als wirtschaftswissenschaftlicher Realist. Die einen beschimpften ihn als Apologeten einer Ausbeutung bis zum Tode, andere sahen ihn als Vordenker des staatlichen Interventionismus gegen die Willkür der Marktgesetze. Von seinen Zeitgenossen Darwin, Ricardo und Shelley, über Marx und Keynes bis Foucault ist die Auseinandersetzung mit Malthus ein konstanter Topos der kritischen Sozialwissenschaften. Gleichzeitig hat jede Generation des soziologischen und ökonomischen Diskurses auch ihre Neomalthusianer, die beharrlich auf das Wachstum als Heilsbringer setzen. In Zeiten der Klimakrise und zunehmender Migrationsbewegungen ist Malthus’ Hauptwerk Das Bevölkerungsgesetz wieder brandaktuell. Nicht weil er die Antworten auf die Probleme unserer Gegenwart zu liefern vermag, sondern weil das berühmt-berüchtigte Paradigma vom Zusammenhang von Bevölkerungsgröße und Armut auf ihn zurückgeht. Ein gefährlicher Klassiker, der heute mehr denn je nach einer Neulektüre verlangt.
