Das Lieblingsargument der Befürworter (etwa @suedekum.bsky.social gestern): “Pensionsfonds werden in Infrastrukturprojekte investieren.” In der Praxis, überall: Sie werden in *Private Equity Infrastrukturfonds* investieren. Wozu das führt? In die Infrastrukturhölle, siehe Thames Water. 9/

the FT has two pieces on the slow-motion collapse of UK higher ed. 4/5ths of unis are doing voluntary layoffs; 38% are doing compulsory. Meanwhile Britain and its flatlined productivity growth sleepwalks through its unprecedented loss of advanced capabilities www.ft.com/content/8097...

At this point we can only conclude that the German growth model deserves its inevitable oblivion.

Spain's constitution promises democracy at work. Last year, @yolandadiaz.bsky.social convened an expert group to study how to make good on that promise. Lead by @isabelleferreras.bsky.social, we have delivered what is, we think, the highest-level 400-page report on economic democracy out there. 1/2
Front page of the report, available here: https://reportondemocracyatwork.org/en/the-report/Picture of Yolanda Diaz and the expert committee members at the report's launch in Madrid, 2 Feb 2026.

I'm sure potential international students dont care if they study at a UK-based campus vs some second-tier campus that university has in their home country... what a stupid strategy to ruin one of this country's last profitable sectors www.ft.com/content/a23ce31a-d096-4294-975f-f4e92d12b54a

When the movie about the AI bubble is made, the scene where Sam Altman tells one of his investors to sell his shares after asking Sam how a company with $13B in sales can make $1.4T in commitments will win the actors an Oscar. It’s that absurd yet emblematic of this era.

Vor 35 Jahren ist die DDR-Mark verschwunden - naja fast. Die Restbestände wurden in Sachsen-Anhalt eingemauert und zur Zielscheibe von Räubern. Mehr über die irre Geschichte zum Währungswechsel gibt's im nd. www.nd-aktuell.de/artikel/1192...

Vor 35 Jahren wurde die westdeutsche D-Mark in der DDR eingeführt. Damit war die Geschichte der Mark aber noch nicht zu Ende.
