For many years, she has analyzed political and economic events as a business correspondent for the “taz” newspaper. Trained as a bank clerk, she studied history and philosophy, worked at the Körber Foundation and was press spokeswoman for Hamburg’s Senator for Equal Opportunities, Krista Sager. Her origins in Hamburg’s middle class shape her clear view of social justice and economic power structures. Herrmann is known for her ability to make economic contexts understandable, for example in her highly regarded books on growth criticism and climate policy. She has received numerous awards for her work; the “FAZ” newspaper called her a “voice of economic reason from the left”. (c) Ulrike Herrmann
