(2) The reason for the decision has not been the “Schwarze Hefte”
Ok, the decision was obviously taken 2013, but things have changed since. If the Black Notebooks were not the reason for dropping the focus on Heidegger in Freiburg, they should be the reason to change plans now. Heidegger poses a serious problem to 20th century philosophy on various levels an you cannot deal with this seriously only by causally doing Heidegger-research as the planed now or by eventually organizing a conference or two. Responsibilities have to be taken now, not three years ago. Be flexibel, come on!
