Exportweltmeister Deutschland -`Made in Germany´ steht weltweit für Qualität. Deutschland erzielte in den Jahren 2014 - 2019 Rekordüberschüsse. Allein im Jahr 2019 lag der Wert exportierter Waren laut Statistischem Bundesamt bei 1.328 Milliarden Euro. Das war der höchste Wert seit 1996. Schaut man sich die Entwicklung des deutschen Außenhandels im Pandemiejahr 2020 an, kommt die deutsche Wirtschaft mit einem blauen Auge davon: Immerhin wurden noch für 1.205 Milliarden Euro Waren exportiert. Fast jeder vierte Arbeitsplatz in Deutschland hängt vom Export ab. Andreas Nölke, Politikwissenschaftler,"Phoenix"-Kommentator und Blogger beim Online-Magazin "Makroskop", benennt klar und sachlich die Risiken und immer deutlicher werdende Nachteile unseres exportgetriebenen Wirtschaftsmodells, die nicht erst seit Corona sichtbar werden. Er zeigt die Ursachen und Folgen ineffizienter Exportabhängigkeit auf und sieht in der Corona-Krise die Chance einer Neuorganisation der deutschen Wirtschaft.

Michael Phillips (Edited By) Professor Mike Phillips has a BSc in Civil Engineering, an MSc in Environmental Management and a PhD in Coastal Processes and Geomorphology, which he has used in an interdisciplinary way to assess current challenges of living and working on the coast. He is Pro Vice-Chancellor (Research, Innovation, Enterprise and Commercialisation) at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David and also leads their Coastal and Marine Research Group. Professor Phillips' research expertise includes coastal processes, morphological change and adaptation to climate change and sea level rise, and this has informed his engagement in the policy arena. He has given many key note speeches, presented at many major international conferences and evaluated various international and national coastal research projects. Consultancy contracts include beach monitoring for the development of the Tidal Lagoon Swansea Bay, assessing beach processes and evolution at Fairbourne (one of the case studies in this book), beach replenishment issues, and techniques to monitor underwater sediment movement to inform beach management. Funded interdisciplinary research projects have included adaptation strategies in response to climate change and underwater sensor networks. He has published >100 academic articles and in 2010 organised a session on Coastal Tourism and Climate Change at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris in his role as a member of the Climate, Oceans and Security Working Group of the UNEP Global Forum on Oceans, Coasts, and Islands. He has successfully supervised many PhD students, and as well as research students in his own University, advises PhD students for overseas universities. These currently include the University of KwaZuluNatal, Durban, University of Technology, Mauritius and University of Aveiro, Portugal. Professor Phillips has been a Trustee/Director of the US Coastal Education and Research Foundation (CERF) since 2011 and he is on the Editorial Board of the Journal of Coastal Research. He is also an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Geography, University of Victoria, British Columbia and Visiting Professor at the University Centre of the Westfjords. He was an expert advisor for the Portuguese FCT Adaptaria (coastal adaptation to climate change) and Smartparks (planning marine conservation areas) projects and his contributions to coastal and ocean policies included: the Rio +20 World Summit, Global Forum on Oceans, Coasts and Islands; UNESCO; EU Maritime Spatial Planning; and Welsh Government Policy on Marine Aggregate Dredging. Past contributions to research agendas include the German Cluster of Excellence in Marine Environmental Sciences (MARUM) and the Portuguese Department of Science and Technology.
