ZusammenfassungDialogische Kommunikation ist von zentraler Bedeutung für die Plurale Ökonomik. Der Beitrag verfolgt das Anliegen, eine ‚gute Diskurskultur‘ als Grundlage Pluraler Ökonomik zu stärken. Vor dem Hintergrund der sozialökologischen Krisen unserer Zeit wird zudem das Ziel einer anwendungsbezogenen, gestaltenden Pluralen Ökonomik erörtert. Das beschriebene innovative Vorgehen stellt einen Versuch dar, beide Aspekte in die Lehre zu integrieren. Zudem wird diskutiert, welche Herausforderungen sich didaktisch ergeben.

Taking the climate crisis and the need for greenhouse gas emission reduction as a starting point, the following article illustrates the variety of areas for action to have an impact via the financial sector. Leading principles are future orientation, focus on the real economy and additionality. The leverage points described include ambitious planning, allocative financial market regulation, target-oriented deregulation, the establishment of pragmatic clarity, addressing fundamental uncertainty, and coordination and capacity building. All leverage points are illustrated with concrete examples of measures. The results presented in this article are based on the designoriented, participatory research project "change finance for resilience and sustainability".

In the aftermath of the global financial crisis, international criticism of the lack of pluralism in economics teaching climaxed in the open letter of the International Student Initiative for Pluralism in Economics (ISIPE). The feeling seemed to be widespread but data is lacking. This study is the first to gather data at an international level about the way economics is taught at universities. Fourteen countries were surveyed. The results show a clear domination of quantitative methods, macroeconomics and microeconomics courses, as well as management courses. Reflective courses, such as the history of economic thought, are marginalised.

Ausgehend von der Klimakrise und der Notwendigkeit zur Treibhausgasemission zeigt der folgende Artikel die Vielfalt der Handlungsräume auf, über den Finanzsektor klimapolitisch zu wirken. Dabei werden die Prinzipien Zukunftsorientierung, realwirtschaftlicher Fokus sowie Zusätzlichkeit verfolgt. Die beschriebenen Eingriffspunkte umfassen eine ambitionierte Planung, allokative Finanzmarktregulierung, zieladäquate Deregulierung, die Etablierung pragmatischer Klarheit, die Adressierung fundamentaler Unsicherheit sowie Koordination und Capacity Building und werden jeweils mit konkreten Maßnahmenbeispielen illustriert. Die vorgestellten Ergebnisse beruhen auf dem gestaltungsorientierten, partizipativen Forschungsprojekt „Finanzwende für Resilienz und Nachhaltigkeit“.

Against the backdrop of a simultaneous dynamization of sustainable finance and intensifying environmental and social crises, the following article carries out an analysis of the transformation potential of the sustainable finance discourse that is present in German governance discussions. The discourse is illustrated through a content analysis of the German government's Sustainable Finance Strategy and the final report of the first Sustainable Finance Advisory Council. In order to evaluate the transformation potential, a frame analysis is conducted. Subsequently, the analyzed frames are linked to the concept of institutional logics, which allows for an assessment of their transformation potential. The article comes to the conclusion that the governance discourse on sustainable finance in Germany is dominated by an integrative frame, which describes sustainable finance per se as desirable, and a frame, which emphasizes financial risks. With regard to institutional logics, a state logic that is motivated by location specific competitiveness policies and a financial market logic dominate. This is consistent with the interpretation that the mainstreaming of sustainable finance is accompanied by an increasingly financialized discourse that derives its goals largely from its own system logics, i.e. those inherent in the financial system. Based on the analysis, the article concludes that the transformation potential of the assessed governance discourse on Sustainable Finance in Germany is relatively low.
