Kölner Universitäts Magazin, 14.12.2022 | Charlotte Pekel & Felix Kölle

“Die klassische Ökonomie geht davon aus, dass Menschen egoistisch sind. […] Aber Felix Kölle sieht in seiner Forschung oft etwas Anderes: ‘Wir sind soziale Wesen, denen Gerechtigkeit am Herzen liegt.’ […] Nach einem Jahr der Krisen lassen diese Erkenntnisse aufhorchen. Krieg, Klimawandel und die Coronapandemie – ihre schlimmsten Folgen resultieren aus egoistischem Verhalten. Sie können jedoch nur durch Kooperation bewältigt werden. […] ‘Kooperationsprobleme sind soziale Dilemmata’, sagt Felix Kölle. Zur Sorge, selbst nicht vom eigenen Einsatz zu profitieren, kommt die Unsicherheit, ob die anderen überhaupt kooperieren wollen.”
