The on-going debate in Germany about so-called green genetic engineering has caused a deep divide in both the relevant research and in society in general. Both the opponents and the proponents of this technology provide support for their respective positions by referring to scientific studies. At the center of the discussion lie not just the new technologies that are emerging, but also the very different ways in which people can view nature. This volume tries to show how green genetic engineering is part of the on-going discussion about nature and culture in general, the goal being to remove the classical barriers to mutual understanding.
