Metros Cut Car Use in European Cities, but Trams Fall Short

Warum manche Gesellschaften trotz enormer Krisen nicht untergingen

Im Laufe der Geschichte haben Krisen oft zum Zusammenbruch ganzer Gesellschaften geführt. Oft, aber nicht immer. Ein internationales Team, darunter Forschende des Complexity Science Hub (CSH), untersuchte vier Fälle, wo unter extremem Druck durch Reformen ein Zusammenbru...

Despite nearly two centuries of technological revolutions, U.S. cities follow a stable pattern that shapes their ability to diversify and reinvent themselves
Hospital Stays Among Migrants in Austria Much Lower Than Among Austrians

Researchers at the Complexity Science Hub (CSH) analyzed 13 million inpatient hospital stays involving around 4 million individuals in Austria: Although about 20% of the population in Austria does not hold Austrian citizenship, this group accounts for only 9.4% of hospit...
Menschen in isolierten Städten sind stärker von Gewalt gegen Zivilist:innen betroffen
