Abstract
It is not uncommon for the German name of the IASS to evoke confused looks on people's faces: Institut für transformative Nachhaltigkeitsforschung - "I'm sorry, but what is 'transformative' supposed to mean, and what is 'transformative research'?" A comprehensive yet straightforward answer is given in Jan Freihardt's book "Draußen ist es anders" ("Out there, it's different"), subtitled "Treading new paths towards a science of transition".
