Evidenzdossier – FreeTheBees

Das wissenschaftliche Fundament von FreeTheBees

FreeTheBees legt offen, auf welche wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten und Bewertungen sich seine Positionen stützen. So wird nachvollziehbar, was belastbare Evidenz ist, wo Nicht-Evidenz beginnt und wie unsere Schlussfolgerungen zustande kommen.

Warum wir über Evidenz und Nicht-Evidenz sprechen

FreeTheBees stützt sich in seiner Arbeit auf wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse. Gleichzeitig halten wir es für problematisch, wenn von „der Wissenschaft“ gesprochen wird, als handle es sich dabei um eine einheitliche, abschliessende und unfehlbare Instanz.

„Die Wissenschaft“ in diesem Sinne gibt es nicht. Wissenschaft ist kein Dogma, keine Autorität und kein fertiges Urteil. Wissenschaft ist ein Verfahren: Sie lebt von Beobachtung, Hypothese, Prüfung, Kritik, Replikation, Irrtumskorrektur und Gegenrede. Genau wie eine funktionierende Demokratie nicht von Einstimmigkeit lebt, sondern von Rede und Gegenrede, lebt auch Wissenschaft vom offenen, überprüfbaren Widerspruch.

Aus unserer Sicht ist dieses Prinzip heute zunehmend unter Druck geraten. Wir stellen fest, dass wissenschaftliche Institutionen, Forschungsprogramme und einzelne Arbeiten auf vielfältige Weise beeinflusst werden können: wirtschaftlich, politisch, ideologisch, moralisch oder karrierestrategisch. An die Stelle sorgfältiger Qualität tritt immer häufiger messbare Quantität: Anzahl Publikationen, Zitationsraten, Projektvolumen, Drittmittel, institutionelle Sichtbarkeit. Damit entstehen Anreize, die nicht zwingend der Wahrheitssuche dienen.

Das bedeutet nicht, dass Wissenschaft wertlos wäre. Im Gegenteil: Gerade weil Wissenschaft wertvoll ist, muss sie vor ihrer missbräuchlichen Verwendung geschützt werden.

Wer das wissenschaftliche System gut versteht, kann durch Auswahl von Fragestellung, Studiendesign, Stichprobe, Endpunkten, Statistik, Interpretation und Publikationsstrategie praktisch jedes gewünschte Resultat begünstigen — formal oft innerhalb wissenschaftlicher Regeln, inhaltlich aber mit verzerrender Wirkung. Deshalb reicht es nicht, sich pauschal auf „Studien“ oder „Evidenz“ zu berufen. Entscheidend ist, welche Studien, mit welcher Methode, welchen Annahmen, welchen Interessen, welchen Grenzen und welcher Aussagekraft herangezogen werden.

FreeTheBees hat in der Vergangenheit versucht, zwischen „objektiver“ und „subjektiver“ Wissenschaft zu unterscheiden. Diese Begriffe sind jedoch selbst mehrdeutig und können missverstanden werden. Deshalb verfolgen wir heute einen präziseren Ansatz: vollumfängliche Transparenz.

Wir legen offen, auf welche wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten wir uns beziehen. Wir zeigen, welche Evidenz aus unserer Sicht tragfähig ist, wo sie begrenzt ist, und wo Aussagen als Nicht-Evidenz, Überinterpretation oder interessengeleitete Deutung einzuordnen sind. Ebenso machen wir sichtbar, mit welchen bekannten Methoden wissenschaftliche Resultate bewusst oder unbewusst in eine gewünschte Richtung gelenkt werden können.

Damit schaffen wir die Grundlage, auf der jeder unsere Argumentation nachvollziehen, prüfen und kritisieren kann.

Man muss mit FreeTheBees nicht einverstanden sein. Im Gegenteil: Konstruktive, faktenbasierte Kritik ist ausdrücklich erwünscht. Sie ist kein Angriff auf Wissenschaft, sondern ihr Kern. Entscheidend ist, dass die Auseinandersetzung transparent, überprüfbar und sachlich bleibt.

Unser Ziel ist nicht, Wissenschaft zu delegitimieren. Unser Ziel ist, sie ernst zu nehmen. Genau deshalb unterscheiden wir zwischen belastbarer Evidenz, schwacher Evidenz, Nicht-Evidenz und interessengeleiteter Interpretation. Nur so kann eine offene, ehrliche und verantwortungsvolle Diskussion über Bienen, Imkerei, Biodiversität und Ökosysteme entstehen.

Evidenz versus Nicht-Evidenz

Die FreeTheBees Evidenzbasis rund um Honigbienen

Die nachfolgende Auflistung an Studien ist nicht abschliessend, gibt aber einen guten Überblick über die Evidenz rund um Honigbienen und deren Haltung, auf welche sich FreeTheBees stützt. Die ursprünglichen 286 Studien haben wir von der Webseite von unserer Partnerorganisation, dem Natural Beekeeping Trust in England übernommen. Die wissenschaftliche Zusammenstellung hat Dr. David Heaf gemacht, dem wir an dieser Stelle für seine akribische Arbeit danken. Die Tabelle wird von FreeTheBees in regelmässigen Abständen verifiziert und wo notwendig ergänzt oder auch korrigiert.
