The main theme of this year's congress is 'Animal lives worth living'. This theme focuses on our responsibility for all animals kept or influenced by humans, to ensure that we can provide a life for them that takes into account all relevant aspects of animal welfare, aided by applied ethology as the key scientific discipline. This not only means avoiding and alleviating suffering but also promoting resilience and positive experiences. By monitoring and interpreting animal behaviour, we gain important insights into each of these aspects of quality of life.

Diese Sozialgeschichte untersucht am Beispiel einer repräsentativen Unternehmergruppe das Berliner Bürgertum. Mit der modernen Methode der nominalen Record Linkage werden die Mobilität und das soziale Netzwerk von bürgerlichen Familien und Familiengruppen bis weit in das 18. Jahrhundert zurückverfolgt. Die Arbeit basiert maßgeblich auf einer komplexen Auswertung von Kirchenbüchern. Eingebettet in den sozialen Kontext der Haupt- und Residenzstadt Berlin wird hier für die brandenburgisch-preußische Geschichte die lebhaft debattierte Problematik von Kontinuität und Diskontinuität im Prozeß der Herausbildung des modernen Bürgertums behandelt. Das Berliner Bürgertum mit seinen herausragenden Unternehmern, den Beamten und hofnahen Handwerkern, bedeutenden Kirchenmännern, Ärzten, Gelehrten und Künstlern nimmt in dieser Arbeit konkrete Gestalt an.
