ARCHITEKTURMACHT UND VERBRECHEN MACHT 4 Ein Wort voraus 26 Macht und Herrschaft Monica Hoffmann Cornelius Tafel 6 Macht 30 In eigener Sache Lothar Katz 31 Brisant 10 Wo der Elefant tanzt ... 36 Sieben Fragen an Erwien Wachter Volkwin Marg 15 Schoßhunde der Mächtigen? 39 BDA Michael Gebhard 49 Persönliches 17 Farben der Macht Monica Hoffmann 51 Lesen – Lust und Frust 22 Mensch unter Maschine 56 Notiz Fritz Hubert 58 Impressum 24 Die Macht der Vielen Erwien Wachter EIN WORT VORAUS Gerne hätte ich manchmal mehr Macht, um meine Vorstellungen gegen den Widerstand anderer durchsetzen zu können. Richtig: Macht kommt nicht von machen, wie sich vor- dergründig aufdrängt, sondern von vermögen im Sinne von können. So jedenfalls ist dem etymologischen Lexikon zu entnehmen. An- sonsten ist der Begriff Macht ein schillernder, wie unzählige Definitionen von Macht aus allen möglichen Wissenschaftsdisziplinen bele- gen. In diesem Wirrwarr ist eine Definition von Christine Bauer-Jelinek hilfreich, die nicht nur alltagstauglich und für jedermann, sondern zunächst auch ohne moralische Bewertung ist: „Macht ist das Vermögen, einen Willen gegen einen Widerstand durchzusetzen.“ Welcher Architekt kann kein Lied davon singen, wie sich seinen Entwürfen Widerstände Mächtiger entgegenstellen. Dann braucht er selbst Macht, um seine Ideen gegen die Interessen 4 anderer vertreten zu können. Macht ganz wertfrei betrachtet legt nahe, dass man Macht durchaus erwerben kann und auch sollte – sofern man bereit ist, sich selbst auf den Prüfstand zu stellen. Macht ist nicht gleich Macht. Die Ursachen und Unterschiede von destruktiver und legitimer Macht erläutert Lothar Katz aus psycho- logischer Sicht und kommt zu der Erkenntnis, dass dieses Thema eine Frage von Raum ist (Seite 6). -

Nein, darum soll es im Kontext mit Architekten nicht gehen. Obwohl…? Na ja, lassen wir das. Doch müssen sich die Architekten wahrlich nicht verstecken, stehen sie bei Frauen in Statistiken zu attraktiven Männerberufen sehr hoch im Kurs, wie übrigens auch ihre Kolleginnen, wenn auch von Männern nicht ganz so be- gehrt. Im Ranking der angesehensten Berufe rangieren Architekten allerdings nur noch im Mittelfeld oder werden erst gar nicht als eigene Gruppe geführt, sondern laufen unter der Kategorie der Ingenieure mit. Das war einmal besser, viel besser. Doch seit geraumer Zeit kann nicht geleugnet werden, dass eine Menge negativer Klischees über sie kursieren. 4 Die in komplexen Zusammenhängen zu betrachten und scheinbar Die Königin im Märchen hatte es mit einem schwierig auszuräumen sind, wie der Beitrag von Michael Geb- ehrlichen Spiegel zu tun, der nicht ein ge- hard nur zu deutlich macht (Seite 6).

Kontaktum Special Issue
KontakTUM Special Issue For Alumni of the Technical University of Munich Spring / Summer 2019 It was a pleasure! An Interview Issue on the Anniversary’s Final Round Nominal fee 5,- Euro Campus . Commitment . Network ISSN 1868-4084 HEARTFELT THANKS TO OUR JUBILEE DONORS OF THE TUM ALUMNI JUBILEE CIRCLE 1868 The 150th Jubilee of the Technical University of Munich was a special year. Obviously we have celebrated our history and our present – we are after all one of the best universities in Europe. Yet, as an educational and research community the path into the future is especially important to us, and we are not treading it alone. We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all the supporters of the university. Yours Wolfgang A. Herrmann President 2 E d i to r i a l Dr. Verena Schmöller and Dr. Sabrina Eisele from the KontakTUM editorial team. It is one of the peculiarities of our everyday lives that there is really no such thing as an ending. While we are finishing up one project, we are already getting new ideas. Many a journey completed stirs dreams of other, still undiscovered destinations. An interaction with a person does not end with the conversation, but continues to have an effect on us. On the 12th of April 2019, TUM’s Anniversary Year comes to a close. It was on this day, 151 years ago, that our university was founded. The TUM Family is now not only looking back on many years of innovative cutting-edge research, but also on a fantastic anniver- sary year.
