As part of the Jena Future Workshop , she explores the question of what a humane and livable society could look like in the future, and gives lectures on planetary load limits . Her perspective as a native citizen of the GDR , who was familiar with the prevailing philosophy there, justifies her special interest in the "events around the end of the GDR and the related questions about the causes of the collapse and possible perspectives for further development". In addition, Annette Schlemm is involved in various initiatives in the alternative scene with a focus on climate policy and in some social movements.

Life

Born in a small town, Annette Schlemm grew up in Karl-Marx-Stadt . She first completed an apprenticeship as a zoo technician and then studied physics at the University of Jena . In 2005 she was awarded a thesis on the philosophy of science at the University of Kassel on the subject of How Real are Natural Laws? PhD . Reviewers were Rainer E. Zimmermann and Wolfdietrich Schmied-Kowarzik , the dissertation was published that same year. Using the example of physics, she deals with the relation to reality of physical laws by drawing conclusions from Hegel's understanding of the position of laws in relation to reality , from non- dialectical theories of science and from dialectical epistemology (she speaks of "onto-epistomology") in the term of scientific laws derives.

Among other things, Schlemm is the author of the journals Streifzüge and Contraste and published by the Packpapier-Verlag. She is a member of the Ernst Bloch Association , at whose annual meetings she has repeatedly given lectures. She is also a member of the Society for Dialectical Philosophy . She participates in various initiatives in the alternative scene and in social movements .

In September 2018, Schlemm took part in the holiday university of the Alice Salomon University in Berlin on the subject of critical psychology and organized the introductory event there under the title Dialectics in Critical Psychology .

At the end of 2018, Schlemm took up a position at the University of Bonn , dealing with the subject of society without money . In the context of this project work, the project group published the book Postmonetary Thinking - Opening a Dialogue in 2019 , in which Schlemm wrote the contribution Das Geld als Alien. Post-monetary in utopian literature and science fiction . In it she works out "under which conditions the worlds with or without other forms of money can be imagined".

Schlemm has a grown daughter, lives in the village of Milda and used to work as an application engineer . On their website, on which u. a. Christoph Spehr , Herbert Hörz and Rainer Zimmermann published articles, she runs a philosophical blog . In it, she provides information, for example, about the climate strike as part of the Fridays for Future movement or about activities by the Jena Climate Network , whose efforts in the run-up to the state elections in October 2019 were reported in the Ostthüringer Zeitung .

Positions

In 2008, futurologist Werner Mittelstaedt interviewed Schlemm for the magazine Blickpunkt Zukunft, which he founded and edited . Mittelstaedt asks about the "three most important future threats". Schlemm initially sees this in the "ecologically drastic consequences of global warming", for which "medium-term worst-case scenarios" would have to be considered. For the problems that are created by globalization , they rely "on the development of the 'anti-globalization' movements". At the beginning of the 1990s, she and her colleagues from the future workshop were "laughed at" because of their warnings. It is true that each and every one of us can contribute a small part to improvement, but essentially the economy has to change, "which is not oriented towards the needs of people, but rather towards profit". In doing so, people should not cede their interests, "their freedom of decision and action" to politics, "but rather develop completely new cooperative social structures". She would like people, regardless of the country, to "defend themselves against the capitalization of their homeland". When asked about the living conditions in the new federal states, Schlemm said that the “real gap in terms of living conditions” does not exist between the regions, “but still between 'above' and 'below' in the social hierarchy” - and those people who come after If they were sorted “below”, they lived “more in the areas of the former GDR”. You have u. a. dealt with chaos theory, but has meanwhile become cautious about deriving action orientations from abstract theories: "It is very arbitrary what is read out there." However, they would help to expand knowledge about complex processes.

"I am convinced that the ecological or climate-political fight against symptoms, in which the economy in its capitalist form is not called into question, will not be enough to save the highly developed life on this planet."

review

The journalist Christian Fuchs wrote in his review to the second volume of slam book That nothing remains as it is ... , Schlemm coming of the capitalist mode of production to the conclusion in its analysis that the capitalism that global problems can not be solved, but rather self-causing or sharpen. “The concept of social self-organization can help to find ways out of capitalism into a post-economic society in which there is no longer any primacy of economy , value and profit .” In this context, Schlemm understands social self-organization as a “social organization from below, which is turns against outside determination , as well as the non- rule- shaped, federal-networked associations of free people ”. Finally, Fuchs recommends Schlemm's book reading to all “those who are interested in visionary and critical social analysis”.
