Thomas Straubhaar on the difficulty of finding societal consensus in the age of digitalization and the differentiation of minorities: “If there are no clear majorities, but only many minorities, it will not be easier to achieve a societal consensus on important future issues or a political compromise to solve upcoming challenges. Without an average that is representative for the whole, it will become increasingly difficult to find a generally accepted compass in which direction Germany should develop in the age of digitalization and what should hold society together.”
