Blockchain Challenge 2021 – from valuable experiences to future-oriented technologies

Felix Novotny

Since 2017, the University of Basel has been hosting an annual challenge where students are once again “lured” out of the lecture halls, or even by the pending COVID-19 chaos, from their desks at home and can prove their technical, business development and presentation skills. For this year, a remote only event has been created for the first time.

Fight for the right to love

Bronwyn Hoskins-Davies

I am sure you can think of a million ways to spend time with the person you love. I am also sure that ‘getting arrested and beaten for holding hands’ is not on that list. Sadly, for people living in Zimbabwe and Zambia, loving each other without fear is more than they could ever hope for.

Am 15. April 2021 hatte die studentische Initiative Frankfurt School Economy & Politics die Ehre, ein Event mit dem parlamentarischen Staatssekretär Dr. Peter Tauber (MdB) zu veranstalten. Der promovierte Historiker und Politikwissenschaftler ist für seine langjährige Tätigkeit als Generalsekretär der CDU bekannt.

Scottish Independence from Past to Present – A historical perspective

Konstantin Schroeter

Scotland - Romantic highland sceneries, traditional bagpipe bands and spooky castle ruins on the edge of Loch Ness. Those are the things that come to our mind when thinking of this beautiful country covering the entire north of Great Britain. Welcome to the first part of a two-piece editorial on Scotland.

This council represents the foreign residents in Hessen, hence, it makes absolute sense especially for international students to take priority interest in it and vote. Vote on March 14th from 8AM to 6PM at your polling station.

Stop hiding who you are and express your true colours

Mona Jasmin Baumann

As part of society, we are cautious to express our true colours. We disguise ourselves in order to meet the rules of social normativity. The real shame in this is that by being cautious, we not only put obstacles in our own way and cause our own unhappiness, but also prevent those around us, colleagues, friends, and family, from getting to know the real us.

Belarus – The struggle of Europe’s Last Dictatorship

The fallacy of dictators is that they never know which repression event will turn out to be the last for them. Alexander Lukasahenko, often referred to as the last dictator in Europe, had thought of 9th August presidential elections as a repeat of the election engineering that he has mastered for the last 26 years.

I selected Frankfurt School within the partners of my university because of its reputation in finance. When I arrived, I didn’t know many people, but many events were organized to make us feel welcome and connect with each other.

Diversity and inclusiveness as drivers of economic growth

There were many positive developments for LGBTIQ* rights in the last decade, but despite many victories, there were also some setbacks with the increase of the populism and extremist right movements in many countries.

In December 2020, two Master of Finance students, Hauke Lehnhoff and Lucas Peikert, won the prestigious GARP Research Award to conduct research on the ”Impact of Fiscal and Monetary Policy on Asset Liquidity Metrics”.

The most ignored humanitarian catastrophe – Yemen

Tatjana Tokovic

The crisis in Yemen, caused by prolonged conflict, has led to staggering impacts on human life, basic public services, and the economy. Yemen was already one of the poorest countries in the Middle East and the war has pushed an already struggling population to the brink of famine.

I was lucky to arrive in Frankfurt on a warm and sunny August day. Leaving home is never easy, especially given the current situation with the COVID-19 global pandemic. Prior to my arrival, I had been paired with Tim, a German student from the Frankfurt School Buddy Program, who was extremely helpful.
