Max Planck LawcastBridging the Divide: Mediation and Intractable ConflictsGuest: Valérie Rosoux (University of Louvain (Belgium) and Max Planck Law Fellow)
Today's episode explores the complexities of mediation in some of the world's most intractable conflicts. Valérie Rosoux joins Christopher Murphy to discuss how deep-rooted animosity and intergenerational mistrust make third-party brokered mediation particularly difficult in such situations.
Given these complexities, what tools can mediators utilize to bring conflicting parties to the discussion table? When is the optimal time for them to intervene (to avoid acting either too prematurely or too belatedly)? And, perhaps most importantly, how can ingrained mistrust and animosity be...2025-07-1843 minMax Planck LawcastGlobal Gatekeepers: Online Oversight and Internet Content ModerationGuest: Erik Tuchtfeld (Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law)
The Internet connects people from across the globe: it facilitates communication and has single-handedly transformed education, commerce, and entertainment. But who controls what we can say and find on the Internet? Or better put, who are the Internet’s Global Gatekeepers?
In this episode, Erik Tuchtfeld and Christopher Murphy dive into the complex world of online content moderation and discuss its far-reaching implications.

This episode delves into the US Supreme Court's 2022 decision to overturn the constitutional right to abortion, a ruling that sparked intense national protest and division. Janne Mende and Christopher Murphy analyse the decision, connecting it to the concept of norm decoupling, which describes the increasing separation of liberal-democratic norms from their traditional interpretations and applications. The discussion then turns to whether the handling of abortion rights in the US is indicative of a more general backsliding of liberal-democratic norms.

During the years that it was in power, the Nazi regime made far-reaching changes to German civil law, especially family law. Marriage was understood as a societal 'service', children were deemed to be the nation's 'most precious asset', and mothers were idolized as the backbone of society. In today's Lawcast episode, Lara Bucholski details how these civil law changes serve as proof that law is rarely truly neutral as seen by the fact that the value-based jurisprudence of the Nazi regime influenced and modified existing...2025-02-1739 minMax Planck LawcastThe International Regulation of Warfare: A History of Power, Law, and HumanityGuest: Raphael Schäfer (Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law)
One of international law’s greatest concerns is ensuring peace. However, sometimes this simply isn't possible. In such instances, the goal of international law then swings towards guaranteeing ‘humane’ warfare and resolving conflicts as quickly as possible.
In today's Lawcast episode, Raphael Schäfer elaborates on the functioning of the laws of war based on their historical context. Although warfare has rapidly evolved over the centuries, the associated death and destruction have not. So what can today’s politicians learn from the politi...2025-01-2842 min

Max Planck Florida’s Neurotransmissions Podcast78. Could Sleep be Nature's Time-out? | Giorgio F. GilestroSleep is a highly conserved behavior among the animal kingdom, appearing as distant as jellyfish and elephants. It is generally believed that sleep serves a crucially important yet mysterious “core function” that is shared among all animals and that drives its evolution, but the evidence behind this hypothesis is lacking.
In this episode, Lesley has a fun chat with Dr. Giorgio F. Gilestro, an Associate Professor from Imperial College in London, England who for the past 15 years has been researching sleep and its link to biology and behavior.

Excerpts from Aesthetical SermonsEp. 15 Sermon on Passion and Consequence (part II)
In the concluding episode of our 2-part special on Joris Planck's "Sermon on Passion and Consequence," we hear a story of captivating pathos told by our beloved Chief Zealot.
Transcription of Joris:
The Maple was not always Maple to the Cedar. At one point, the two looked upon each other and saw no difference. ’Twas a love marked by rapture and moistened brows. Such was their love that one unto the other would whisper the sweetest of nothings, all the while continuously churning the surrounding air with leaféd limbs. Such was their love. But...2017-08-1500 minExcerpts from Aesthetical SermonsEp. 14 Sermon On Passion And Consequence (part I)
This week's episode will be the first of two excerpts taken from Joris Planck's "Sermon on Passion and Consequence."
Part I will address Passion. It should help us come to new knowledge about the human experience.
Transcription of Joris:
"I have no measurable love for man or woman. I've barely love for myself, save that particular sort of love that manifests in resentment and pity. The sort that we might feel for an old donkey that staves off predatory species but that brays terribly whenever he sees your face. And I have visited...2017-07-2600 min
Max Planck Florida’s Neurotransmissions Podcast#16: Metabolic Mayhem: Energy Homeostasis with Dr. Jens BruningEverything we do requires energy, so it's not surprising that our brains are wired to regulate how we acquire and use that energy for survival. In this episode, Joe is joined by Dr. Jens Bruning, Director at the Max Planck Institute for Metabolism Research in Cologne, Germany, to discuss how the brain regulates feeding behavior and energy use in the body. Dr. Bruning also describes the surprising ways in which our evolutionary history conflicts with our current lifestyles in a way that contributes to modern day health problems. After hearing this, you won't think about food the same way again!2017-07-2532 minExcerpts from Aesthetical SermonsEp. 11 Symphonic Interlude
Episode 11 will provide us with a momentary break from our beloved Joris Planck, to give our minds a moment to breathe. Instead, we will be sharing an a cappella creation by Philip that should inspire both terror and joy in us. 2017-06-2900 minExcerpts from Aesthetical SermonsEp. 9 Sermon on Familiar Stories
Episode 9 gives us insight into Joris Planck's belief in the gods of mythology. The excerpt is taken from his "Sermon on Familiar Stories," which tackles the epic task of weaving together every story under the sun.
Transcription of Joris:
"I wonder, should we maintain a perverse belief in these gods of old once sung of in metered hymn and marbled relief? They were as various as my moods and just as lackluster about mankind. Their intention has never been to inspire faith, nor even love, nor even fear: fear in their elemental p...2017-06-1200 minExcerpts from Aesthetical SermonsEp. 8 Sermon on Companionship
Episode 8 excerpts a moment from Joris Planck's "Sermon on Companionship," wherein he considers how much time he wastes. We'll be challenged to decide if we, the listeners, aren't somehow implicated in his metaphors.
Transcription of Joris:
"Watching my chickens, the overbearing gravity of wasted time oppresses me. Then again, seeing anything overwhelms me with this sentiment. Why, I could have mentioned clouds dissolving, or wind carrying outrageously engineered seeds as they parachute wildly to mock the Mother Earth, who is all too desperate to cultivate each and every one. By Jove...2017-06-0200 minExcerpts from Aesthetical SermonsEp. 7 Sermon on Aesthetics
Episode 7 showcases a passage from one of Joris Planck's many sermons on aesthetics. Joris asks himself if his art is bettered or worsened by education.
Transcription of Joris:
"Sometimes I wish that I were a precocious practitioner of aesthetics able to justify having never enrolled in university or having ever proffered an art debased by learning. I would spit on education and all others instructing me to read this tome or to open my eyes to that masterpiece. My creations would be unsullied by the overbearing insufficiency accompanied by that confession that...2017-05-2600 minExcerpts from Aesthetical SermonsEp. 6 Sermon on Strolling (part II)
Episode 6 presents us with a second clip from Joris Planck's early work, the "Sermon on Strolling." In this passage, he recounts a story wherein he adopted a practice of walking in a group.
Transcription of Joris:
"I have of late partaken in a procession of playfully costumed and coiffured paraders, who on occasion flood my street in a monsoon of pageantry and vociferations. Their language is incomprehensible, but that has not stopped me from joining their rank and file. Though to be sure, my reasons for joining are vague...Despite having p...2017-05-1900 minExcerpts from Aesthetical SermonsEp. 5 Sermon on Strolling (part I)
In episode 5, we hear the first of 2 clips from Joris Planck's "Sermon on Strolling." We hope to shine some light on what Joris thought when he took walks.
Transcription of Joris:
"My friends, by which I mean my thoughts suggest leaving my incommodious apartment to visit some public venue or market square. Where wears are whimsically strung betwixt wooden post and lintel, and shrieking children confuse every tall individual within arms reach as their parent.... They tell me to visit manicured gardens where I might espy the governors family eating paté. They tell m...2017-05-1200 minExcerpts from Aesthetical SermonsEp. 4 Sermon On Natural Philosophy
In episode 4, we hear a clip from Joris Planck's "Sermon on Natural Philosophy." In it, Joris seems to waver on his opinions of science and what it "offers."
Transcription of Joris:
"Why should I care for the sciences, which blast my otherwise illiterate hours with images and scream light upon my gloom. And what of this tedious landscape it proposes? Should we not protest? Aseptic laboratories and perfect mathematics offer a vision of purgatory or worse. I say, show me a mathematics frequently tormented by a trickster god, who adds five daffodils together...2017-05-0500 minExcerpts from Aesthetical SermonsEp. 3 Sermon On Whimsy
In episode 3, we will hear a passage from Joris Planck's "Sermon on Whimsy." Plus, we will hear some feedback from you our listeners!
Transcription of Joris:
"Sometimes I imagine myself some relation of mercurial puck. Perhaps a melancholy uncle who delights not in faerie politics, but the gainful exploitation of their eldritch pastimes of counting winged creatures and wheezing upon too too pollinated air. I would happily take up those less then glamorous occupations of flower disposal and tree maintenance. And while my dainty companions argued over the distribution of magical powders or...2017-04-2800 minExcerpts from Aesthetical SermonsEp. 2 Sermon On Respiration
In episode 2, we will hear a passage from Joris Planck's "Sermon on Respiration."
I hope to provide some pragmatic insight into this passage, but I wouldn't hold your breath if I were you.
Transcription of Joris:
"Grim, grim, and ever grimmer grow the weary days as they assault me with their vulgar passings. And with them go all hope of ever catching my breath. I swear, if the air could grow hands from out of its vaporous nothingness, I'm most certain that those moist claws would reach their awful talons around my wr...2017-04-2000 min
Max Planck Florida’s Neurotransmissions Podcast#6: Biology and Sexism - Equality for Women in Scientific CareersWomen are awarded over half of all doctorate degrees in the life sciences, but account for a small fraction of high-ranking academic positions. To investigate this phenomenon, Joe and Misha explore the various barriers and experiences unique to women in science with Dr. Leslie Vosshall of The Rockefeller University, Dr. Na Ji of Janelia Research Campus, and Ellie Hozhabri at the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience.2016-06-2430 min

Fakultät für Physik - Digitale Hochschulschriften der LMU - Teil 05/05Constraining the cosmic microwave background temperature evolution and the population and structure of galaxy clusters and groups from the South Pole Telescope and the Planck SurveyorGalaxy clusters, the massive systems host hundreds of galaxies, are invaluable cosmological probes and astrophysical laboratories. Besides these fascinating galaxies, the concentration of dark matter creates a deep gravitational potential well, where even light passing by is bended and the background image is distorted. The baryonic gas falling into the potential well is heated up to more than 10^7 K that free electrons start to emitting in X-ray. Observing those phenomena leads to a throughout understanding of gravity, particle physics and hydrodynamics. In addition, residing on the top of the density perturbations, clusters are sensitive to the initial condition of the...2014-07-2900 min

Das Weltraumteleskop zur Erforschung der Entstehung des Universums
Das Planck-Weltraumteleskop ist ein ambitioniertes Projekt der ESA, das sich der Beobachtung der Kosmischen Hintergrundstrahlung verschrieben hat, die als Überbleibsel des Urknalls das erste zu beobachtende Ereignis des Universums ist.
Das 13 Milliarden alte, ausgesprochen schwache Licht wird dabei aus allen Richtungen empfangen im Mikrowellenbereich empfangen. Durch massiv heruntergekühlte, langsam rotierende Instrumente gelang es Planck, eine hochauflösende, lückenlose Karte von der Entstehung unseres Universums zu erzeugen. 2013 konnte die 2009 in Betrieb gegangene Sonde ihren Auftrag erfolgreich abschließen.

Right AscensionHerschel and Planck - two great names, two amazing spacecraft<p>Why take a risk when you can take two? That was the nailbiting scenario planned by the European Space Agency on Thursday when it launched two highly sensitive and extremely important astronomical probes in the same launch vehicle. Planck and Herschel are now on their way on the next stage of their journey to an orbital position known as L2. <a href="http://http//sci.esa.int/science-e/www/area/index.cfm?fareaid=16">Herschel </a>is the largest ever space telescope with a mirror twice the size of that of Hubble, but operating...2009-05-1716 min
