Due to its relevance to corporate law, the work was picked up in the media, for example in the ZEIT articles “Use all moral values…” / “With other people's money”, and it was part of the basis for the discussion about a party financing law (see, for example, Public Administration ).

Kulitz is controversial in political discourse. For example, he demanded the suspension of the minimum wage for refugees and clearly positioned himself in favor of the ' S 21 ' and high-speed railway line Stuttgart-Ulm through a poster campaign on the IHK building. In the run-up to the referendum on S 21, he provoked the anger of the project opponents who took legal action. As a result, Kulitz and the Ulm Chamber of Commerce were sued for an injunction before the Sigmaringen administrative court. The first-instance judgment, according to which limits were set for a general political mandate from IHK functionaries, did not stand in the following appellate instance before the Administrative Court (VGH) Mannheim, because the litigants declared the main matter to be settled in an out-of-court settlement.

His participation in delegations also ensures media coverage, for example with Winfried Kretschmann , Federal Minister of Economics Sigmar Gabriel and Federal President Joachim Gauck .
