English summary: Why is it that culture nowadays is hardly considered powerful whereas Jacob Burckhardt in his days declared it as a matter of course? 13 experts from a wide range of disciplines seek answers to the question of the relevance of culture during pandemia. Culture can be a vital driver for sustainability, inclusion and democracy. To do so, it needs to take back its relative autonomy, understand itself politically, and be self-critical. What needs to be upheld? And where do we need to examine our tasks in order to bring about a transfor-mation? “Culture on the Move” offers a multi-perspective approach for making one’s own judgement. German description: Woran liegt es, dass der Kultur heute kaum mehr die Kraft zugestanden wird, die ihr ein Jacob Burckhardt noch wie selbstverstandlich bescheinigte? 13 Kulturexpert:innen suchen Antworten auf die gerade in der Pandemie gestellte Frage nach der Relevanz von Kultur. Kultur kann vitale Treiberin fur Nachhaltigkeit, Inklusion und Demokratie sein. Dazu muss sie ihre relative Autonomie zurucknehmen, sich politisch verstehen und selbstkritisch begegnen. Was ist zu verteidigen und wo steht Aufgabenkritik fur eine Transformation an? Kultur unterwegs leuchtet multiperspektivische Zugange fur ein eigenes Urteil aus.
