Kapp Research Prize for Ecological Economy

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Kapp Research Prize for Ecological Economy has been awarded every two years since 1998 (until 2002 under the name Schweisfurth Research Prize for Ecological Economy ) to young scientists in German-speaking countries and aims to promote application-oriented work on ecological economics . The name of the award is reminiscent of the economist Karl William Kapp , who in his book "The Social Costs of Business Enterprise" in the early 1950s drew attention to the social and ecological external costs of the market economy .

The Kapp Prize is awarded every two years in a cooperation between the Association for Ecological Economy (VÖÖ) and the Kapp Foundation (Basel), the Hatzfeldt Foundation (Knowledge), the Selbach Environment Foundation and the anstiftung & ertomis (Munich) foundation Assign rhythm. The Kapp Research Prize is endowed with 5000 euros and was last awarded in October 2016 on the subject of "Economy without growth". From 2006 to 2010, a special prize of € 2500 from the Selbach Environment Foundation (Munich) was also announced. The research award of the VÖÖ was originally awarded in cooperation with the Schweisfurth Foundation under the name Schweisfurth Research Award for Ecological Economy from 1998 to 2002 and renamed in 2004.

The jury for the Kapp Prize included Adelheid Biesecker , Christiane Busch-Lüty , Hans-Peter Dürr , Peter Finke , Hermann Graf Hatzfeldt , Helge Majer , Niko Paech , Irmi Seidl and Christa Müller .
