German: Lehrauftrag in Berufsethik an der Hochschule für Polizei Baden-Württemberg im SoSe2025

Die Hochschule für Polizei Baden-Württemberg in Villingen-Schwenningen hat einen Lehrauftrag in Polizeilicher Berufsethik im Bachelorstudium im Umfang von 4 Wochenstunden zu vergeben.

Für das Sommersemester 2025 geht es um Berufsethik-Seminare im 3. fachtheoretischen Studiensemester. Inhaltliche Schwerpunkte sind:

1. Praxis des staatlichen Gewaltmonopols (Legitime und illegitime Gewaltanwendung, moralische Dilemmata und Gewissenskonflikte, insbes. bei lebensbedrohlichen Einsatzlagen)

2. Polizeiarbeit in der pluralistischen Gesellschaft (Diversität, Migration und Prozesse der Akkulturation, Herausforderungen kultureller Überschneidungssituationen, stereotype Wahrnehmung, Rassismus / Racial Profiling)

Die Lehrveranstaltungen finden in Präsenz statt; die Studiengruppen von jeweils 44–45 Mitgliedern werden für das Berufsethik-Seminar in Halbgruppen geteilt, für die das Seminar dann jeweils vierzehntägig zweistündig stattfindet. Der vierstündige Lehrauftrag beinhaltet also Lehre in zwei Studiengruppen mit jeweils zwei Wochenstunden. Als Leistungsnachweis sind von den Studierenden schriftliche Ausarbeitungen abzufassen.  

Bei den Studierenden handelt es sich um Polizeikommissarsanwärter:innen, d.h. Direkteinsteiger:innen, die bis Beginn des Sommersemesters eine 9monatige Vorausbildung, zwei fachtheoretische Studiensemester an der Hochschule und 12 Monate Praktikum im Polizeidienst absolviert haben.

Üblich ist an der Hochschule für Polizei eine enge Abstimmung der verschiedenen Dozierenden. Es findet eine gemeinsame Vorbereitungssitzung statt; ausgearbeitete Seminarmaterialien werden zur Verfügung gestellt, können aber individuell abgewandelt werden.

 Die Vorlesungszeit geht vom 01.04. bis 25.07. 2025, unterbrochen durch eine zweiwöchige Pfingstpause. Der Wochentag für den Lehrauftrag kann frei gewählt werden.

Voraussetzungen für die Übernahme eines Lehrauftrags: Masterabschluss oder gleichwertiger Abschluss in Philosophie, Theologie oder Religionspädagogik, Bereitschaft zur Kooperation mit den hauptamtlichen Lehrenden.

Wenn jemand an der HfPol einen Lehrauftrag übernimmt, bieten wir gerne vorbereitend die Möglichkeit zu einer Hospitation in der Polizeipraxis an.

New Presidium

Dear Members of Societas Ethica,

During the General Assembly at our 60th Annual Conference held at the wonderful Sigtunastiftelsen in Sweden I have been elected as the President of Societas Ethica. I am both honored and excited to assume this role, and I would like to take this opportunity to provide an update on our plans as the new presidency, as well as to introduce myself to those who were unable to attend the conference.

First and foremost, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to my predecessor, Elena Namli, and her scriba, Martin Langby, and quaestor, Johanna Ohlsson, as well as to the entire board for their great work. Their efforts have facilitated a smooth transition into the new presidency. Under their leadership, the Society has experienced growth in membership and has maintained a stable financial status, enabling a rich environment for scholarly exchange at exciting conferences. Societas Ethica has been a society of scholars engaged in ethical discourse across various and diverse academic disciplines, transcending the boundaries of theology, philosophy, and applied ethics and we are looking forward to contributing to this tradition.

I would also like to acknowledge my colleagues in the new leadership team: Sebastian Mense has been appointed as our new Scriba. He is a Protestant theologian and research fellow involved in the “GenderVariations” project of the German Research Foundation at the Protestant University of Applied Sciences Darmstadt, as well as a PhD candidate at Amsterdam University. Lea Schlenker has been confirmed as Quaestor. She is a Protestant theologian and Islamic studies scholar, currently pursuing her PhD at Tübingen University. Together, we are committed to serving Societas Ethica and maintaining ongoing communication with all of you. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions, suggestions, or contributions.

During the General Assembly, we also elected new board members, Michelle Becka and Elena Namli. We look forward to collaborating with them and with our current board members: Michael Coors, Christof Mandry, Johanna Romare, and Lars Lindblom in the coming years.

Picture shows the new and former presidency, from left to right: Sebastian Mense, Lea Schlenker, Gotlind Ulshöfer, Elena Namli, Johanna Ohlsson, Martin Langby.

In my introduction at the Assembly, I shared my academic background for those unfamiliar with my work and gave an outlook on my ideas and motivation for the presidency of the Societas Ethica:

“Since April of last year, I have been serving as a professor of diaconical studies, ethics, and digitalization at the Protestant University of Applied Sciences in Darmstadt, alongside my role as an extraordinary professor at Tübingen University. My academic foundation encompasses Protestant theology and economics, with studies undertaken at Tübingen and Heidelberg in Germany, Princeton Theological Seminary in the United States, and at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. My journey in ethics began at Heidelberg and continued through my doctoral studies at the Centre of Ethics at Tübingen University, culminating in a Ph.D. at Heidelberg University and focused on process theology and economics. My habilitation at Tübingen University explored social responsibility from a Protestant perspective. Currently, my research encompasses economic, business, and finance ethics, the ethical implications of digitalization, 20th-century Protestant ethics, social politics and ethics, diaconical management, and interreligious ethics.

I believe Societas Ethica plays a crucial role in fostering ethical discussions across diverse academic backgrounds and interests. As a European society, our mission is to enhance intellectual discourse on ethical matters in relation to the pressing global and European developments we observe today. We, as ethicists, possess the skills necessary to analyze moral dilemmas and illuminate issues in applied ethics, such as migration, new nationalism, and assisted suicide, etc., etc. etc. while also refining theories of normative and metaethics. Our unique position allows us to address ethical concerns at both intellectual and societal levels particularly in response to European and global developments.

Looking ahead, I would like to outline five key priorities that will guide our future endeavors:

1. Developing Societas Ethica: Our society thrives on the contributions of its members, and I am committed to nurturing this collaborative spirit. The annual conference remains a cornerstone of our activities. We are pleased to announce that the next annual conference will be held in Germany, at the Evangelische Akademie Hofgeismar, from August 21 to 24, 2025, focusing on the theme “Ethics in Diversity. Intercultural and Interreligious Ethics”.

2. Intensifying the Europeanization of the Society and the Membership: Given our diverse backgrounds and strong presence in Northern and Western Europe, we aim to enhance our connections with Southern and Eastern Europe. My university will support this initiative through a research project examining our membership structure, including a membership survey planned for next year.

3. Enhancing International Outreach: Recognizing that ethical research transcends borders, we will work to strengthen our relationships with organizations such as the Society of Christian Ethics in the United States and the European Academy of Religion, fostering a global exchange of ideas.

4. Securing Financial Resources: While we currently maintain financial stability, we will seek additional funding opportunities to support conferences and assist colleagues from the Global South who may encounter barriers to participation.

5. Expanding Our Social Media Presence: In today’s digital age, it is imperative for Societas Ethica to establish a robust presence on social media platforms. Together with the board, we will develop strategies to enhance our visibility on platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, ensuring our work reaches a wider audience.”

Currently, we are preparing for the next conference by securing funding and inviting keynote speakers. The call for papers has been distributed, and I encourage you to submit your abstracts and share the Call for Papers within your networks. Attached, you will find the Call for Papers as a PDF.

We are reaching out to our partner universities across Europe to expand our network further. Additionally, we are enhancing our social media presence and will let you know when we extended our presence on the different channels. Part of this initiative is that we have new Email-addresses for the presidency and the newsletter. This newsletter is still sent from Sebastian Mense as scriba directly, but we already sent the CfP out from the new address and will do so in future, so please: check also your spam mails and allow these addresses to reach you:

president@societasethica.info
scriba@societasethica.info
quaestor@societasethica.info
newsletter@societasethica.info

Societas Ethica thrives on the active participation of its members. If you have further ideas to promote our Society or enrich our academic pursuits, please do share. We are also open to including information about conferences, publications, and open positions in our newsletters.

I appreciate the efforts made by the Young Societas, particularly their Preconference Workshop at the Annual Meeting and the Young Scholar’s Award, which provide valuable support for emerging scholars. If you know of any young scholars in ethics, please encourage them to engage with the Young Societas Ethica.

As we embark on this journey over the next three years, I look forward to working together with all of you to advance the field of ethics in Europe and to further develop Societas Ethica for the future.

Sincerely,
Gotlind Ulshöfer

International Conference: Global Challenges and Global Ethics in a time of Pandemic and Climate Change

Please see the following invitation from Prof. Emeritus Dr. Göran Collste, a long-standing member and previous president of Societas Ethica.

International Conference: Global Challenges and Global Ethics in a time of Pandemic and Climate Change
https://isdp.eu/event/global-challenges-and-global-ethics-in-a-time-of-pandemic-and-climate-change/

Welcome to the Second CIPSH International Academy on Chinese Cultures
and Global Humanities Seminar 6–7 December 2021!

The first CIPSH International Academy on Chinese Cultures and global Humanities Seminar organized by the Union Académique Internationale (UAI) in collaboration with the Stockholm China Center at the Institute for Security and Development Policy (ISDP) in Stockholm, and the topic was “Chinese and European Resources for a Global Ethic”. As a sequel to this first seminar, a second CIPSH International Academy on Chinese Cultures and Global Humanities Seminar will be held on December 6–7 2021. The topic of this second seminar will be “Global Challenges and Global Ethics in a time of pandemic and climate change”, and just like last time, the Stockholm China Center will provide the digital platform.

Our time faces two major global challenges: climate change and the corona pandemic.
Human-induced climate change has been widely known since the 1990s. Global warming is no longer a future threat but has become an acute crisis, affecting the world through devastating storms, flooding, and droughts. And the poorest nations are hit the worst. The corona pandemic has so far led to five million deceased and many more hospitalized. It has shaken economies and social institutions around the world. Both these global crises demand unified global responses and global solidarity. However, so far, the responses are far from what is needed, and states and regions are acting from self-interests and in conflict. This workshop explores the meaning and implications of global ethics in a time of climate change and pandemics. Scholars from different parts of the world and with different cultural backgrounds will present their views and engage in discussions. How can religious, cultural, and secular traditions be used as resources for reflection and inspire decision-making? How can global ethics contribute to resilience and hope?

Find additional information about the seminar and its speakers in the Seminar Program.

This event is organized by the Union Académique Internationale (UAI) in collaboration with the Stockholm China Center at the Institute for Security and Development Policy (ISDP) in Stockholm.

A note from the president

Dear members of Societas Ethica,

It is a great honor for me to address you as the president of Societas Ethica for 2021-2024. I am confident that the board and the presidium will serve the society and organize annual conferences of high academic quality and social importance.

Societas Ethica is a generous and constructively challenging environment. We all – members from different countries, traditions, and academic contexts – are trained to enjoy critique and questioning, scrutiny of positions, arguments, and assumptions of others, but most importantly, our own. But we also cultivate the ability to support each other and show solidarity towards others whose uniqueness is a treasure and not a threat. In research and functional democracy, differences and not likeness are the source of energy and progress.

Therefore, my vision for the coming three years is, together with my team – doctor Johanna Ohlsson and doctoral student Martin Langby – the board, and most importantly with you – members of the society, to further develop the scientific and humanistic heritage of Societas Ethica. I believe that research in ethics demands international cooperation and cooperation between ethicists from different academic traditions. I also believe that high qualitative and free research in ethics, although not alone, strengthens humanistic, emancipatory elements of European cultures and counteracts racism and desire to dominate. 

We have new wonderful meetings to look forward to – Zurich, Sarajevo, and Uppsala, to begin with, are ready to welcome Societas Ethica’s members for their annual conferences. Vulnerability and integrity; Challenges from inter-religious perspectives on ethics; Moral philosophical and moral theological critique of human rights are themes that, I hope, correlate with your theoretical interests. But even when they don’t, we will secure the possibility to present and discuss the results of novel research projects conducted by ethicists all across Europe.

I look forward to developing Societas Ethica’s cooperation with other societies, such as the Society for Christian Ethics. I also want to ensure all of you that the board and I hope for new initiatives and suggestions from all of you. 

I wish you an excellent academic year. On behalf of the board and Professor Michael Coors’s team, I invite you all to join us in Zurich for the conference on Vulnerability and Integrity. 

New presidium

Societas Ethica has a new presidium for the period 2021-2024. Professor Dr. Elena Namli is president. She is the professor of theological ethics at the Department of Theology, Uppsala University, Sweden. Dr. Johanna Ohlsson is questor. She holds a post-doc position at the Institute for Russian and Eurasian Studies (IRES), Uppsala University, Sweden. Martin Langby is scriba.

Journal of Ethics in Antiquity and Christianity (www.jeac.de)

Seit 2019 gibt der Mainzer Forschungsbereich „Ethik in Antike und Christentum" die Open Access Zeitschrift „Journal of Ethics in Antiquity and Christianity (JEAC)" heraus.

Die Zeitschrift etabliert einen Dialog zwischen exegetischen, judaistischen und patristischen Beiträgen mit philosophischen und systematisch-theologischen Ansätzen zu gegenwartsrelevanten ethischen Fragestellungen und bringt damit die ethischen Dimensionen antiker Texte in die gegenwärtigen Ethikdiskurse ein. Ethische Frage­stellungen ziehen sich nicht nur gegenwärtig quer durch die verschiedenen Wissenschaften, sondern waren bereits in der Antike in vielen Kontexten präsent. Die Art der Bearbeitung ethischer Thematiken in Texten der Antike erbringt für die Gegenwart weit über das Verständnis der eigenen Tradition hinaus methodische und inhaltliche Impulse. Es wird aber weder den Texten noch dem gegenwärtigen Diskurs gerecht, wenn der Beitrag der antiken Texte nur in Form von einzelnen Argumenten oder Motiven aus der Vergangenheit in die Gegenwart übertragen wird. Es bedarf einer sorgfältigen Explikation der ethischen Dimensionen biblischer und außerbiblischer Texte aus ihren antiken Kontexten und Diskurskonstellationen heraus, um diese in ihnen angemessener Weise zur Sprache zu bringen.

Dieser Vielstimmigkeit der Zeiten und Disziplinen wird das „Journal of Ethics in Antiquity and Christianity" durch die Vielfalt der vertretenen Fachdisziplinen und Textformen gerecht: Jede Ausgabe stellt zu einer spezifischen ethischen Fragestellung Artikel aus verschiedenen theologischen und nicht-theologischen Disziplinen mit einem Dialog zweiter konträrer Positionen, Miszellen und Rezensionen zusammen.

Um die Ergebnisse für den ethischen Diskurs der Gegenwart in breitem Rahmen verfügbar zu machen, erscheint das Journal kostenfrei zugänglich als Open Access-Veröffentlichung. Die Artikel werden auf Anfrage durch das Herausgebergremium in deutscher oder englischer Sprache verfasst und durchlaufen ein doppeltes Peer Review, das die Qualität und interdisziplinäre Verständlichkeit der Beiträge fördert.

Beitragsangebote zu ethischen Themen mit Bezug zur Antike sind in allen Kategorien (Artikel, Miszellen, Dialog, Rezensionen) der Zeitschrift sehr willkommen und können unter www.jeac.de eingereicht werden.

ENGLISH

Since 2019 the Mainz Research Unit "Ethics in Antiquity and Christianity" publishes the open access journal "Journal of Ethics in Antiquity and Christianity (JEAC)".

The Journal establishes a dialogue between exegetical, jewish, patristic, philosophical and systematic theological approaches to current ethical issues. In so doing, it seeks to introduce the ethical dimensions of ancient texts to the contemporary ethical discourse. Ethical issues are not only present in most modern sciences but were also discussed in numerous ancient contexts as well. The manner in which ethical topics are addressed in these texts not only helps us understand our own traditions but offers methodological and conceptual insights in our present contexts. At the same time, however, justice is done neither to the texts nor to the present discourses if only individual arguments or motifs are taken up and adopted from the past. A careful explanation and elaboration of the ethical dimensions of biblical and extrabiblical texts based on their ancient context and situation is needed in order to introduce them into contemporary discourse in an appropriate way.

The „Journal for Ethics in Antiquity and Christianity" embraces the many voices heard across many eras and disciplines by embracing a diversity of academic disciplines and textual forms: Every volume includes articles devoted to a specific ethical question from different theological and non-theological disciplines and a dialogue between advocates of two contrary positions on the question, miscellanies, and reviews.

In order to make the results broadly available for the ethical discourse the journal is published open access. All contributions will be solicited by the editors and written in either German or English language. The articles are peer reviewed by at least two reviewers, assuring both quality and interdisciplinary comprehensibility.

Contributions on ethical topics related to antiquity are very welcome in all categories (articles, miscellanies, dialogue, reviews) of the journal and can be submitted at www.jeac.de.

Abschied von Martin Honecker, Präsident der Societas Ethica von 1988 bis 1992 - Farewell to Martin Honecker, President of Societas Ethica from 1988 to 1992

Der am 2. Juni 2021 verstorbene Bonner Professor für Systematische Theologie und Sozialethik, Dr. Martin Honecker, war der erste deutsche Präsident der Societas Ethica. Noch bevor die unvorhersehbaren Entwicklungen zur "Deutschen Wende" (oder "Wiedervereinigung") erkennbar wurden, hatte der Vorstand der SE in Verabredung mit vor allem den osteuropäischen Mitgliedern (und deren staatlichen Behörden) beschlossen, erstmalig einen deutschen Professor zur Wahl für die Präsidentschaft vorzuschlagen. Bis ca. 1985 musste der Präsident aus einem "neutralen" Land (etwa der Schweiz oder Skandinavien) kommen – und dort  musste auch die Geschäftsführung lokalisiert sein. Ebenso mussten dort nach Möglichkeit die Jahrestagungen stattfinden. Andernfalls hätten die osteuropäischen Mitglieder keine Ausreisegenehmigung in ein "Nato-Land" erhalten. Als erster Deutscher wurde dann Martin Honecker zum Präsidenten der SE. vorgeschlagen und gewählt. 

In die Zeit seiner Präsidentschaft fallen zugleich erste Diskussionen (und  Auseinandersetzungen!) darüber, ob und wie sich die ursprünglich interkonfessionell-theologisch dominierte Societas Ethica den stark aufkommenden Strömungen und Interessen an der philosophischen Ethik sowie an einer empirisch-humanwissenschaftlich fundierten Angewandten Ethik thematisch und auch im Blick auf die Mitgliedschaft öffnen sollte. Martin Honecker hat seine Präsidentschaft dezidiert als Moderator und Vermittler zwischen den unterschiedlichen Intentionen verstanden und wahrgenommen. Er hat sich insbesondere dafür engagiert, dass die Societas Ethica durch solche Auseinandersetzungen nicht auseinanderbrach. In seiner persönlichen Haltung und Meinung hat er dabei die theologische Tradition und eine lose-kooperative Zusammenarbeit mit den Kirchen deutlicher zu begründen und zu vertreten versucht.

Die Societas Ethica wird ihm ein dankbares und  ehrendes Andenken bewahren.

Arne Manzeschke

ENGLISH

Dr. Martin Honecker, Professor of Systematic Theology and Social Ethics in Bonn, died on 2 June 2021. He was the first German President of Societas Ethica. Even before the unpredictable developments of the "Deutsche Wende" (fall of the Berlin wall, the German "reunification") became evident, the Board of the SE, in consultation with mainly the Eastern European members (and their state authorities), had decided to propose for the first time a German professor for the presidency. Until around 1985, the president had to come from a "neutral" country (such as Switzerland or Scandinavian countries) - and the board also had to be localised there. The annual conferences had to be held also in a "neutral" country if possible. Otherwise, the Eastern European members would not have received permission to travel to a "Nato country". Martin Honecker was the first German to be proposed and elected as president of the SE.

Also, during the time of his presidency first discussions (and debates!) took place about whether and how the Societas Ethica, originally dominated by interdenominational theology, should open up thematically and also in terms of membership to the strongly emerging currents and interests in philosophical ethics as well as in applied ethics based on empirical human science. Martin Honecker understood and perceived his presidency firmly as a moderator and mediator between different intentions. He was especially committed to ensuring that the Societas Ethica did not break apart as a result of such controversies. In his personal attitude and views, he tried to establish and represent more clearly the theological tradition and a loosely cooperative collaboration with the churches.

The Societas Ethica will keep him in grateful and honourable memory.
