Claus Peter Ortlieb (1 May 1947, in Reinbek – 15 September 2019) was a German mathematician (PhD), critic of work, critic of political economy, and a critic of contemporary science, especially regarding its use of mathematics.[1][2][3] He was an editor for the journal EXIT!.[4]
Ortlieb studied the University of Hamburg where he earned his doctorate 1976 under the supervision of Lothar Collatz.[5] The name of his dissertation was Dualität und Näherungsverfahren bei konvexen Steuerungsproblemen (English: "Duality and approximation methods in convex control problems").[6] Ortlieb taught at the University of Hamburg as a professor at the faculty of mathematics from 1985 to 2011. Ortlieb was one of the most known names of the writers in the magazine Krisis among Robert Kurz, Roswitha Scholz, Ernst Lohoff and Norbert Trenkle. Other than his mathematical work, Ortlieb was critical against contemporary science and its problem with mathematical models, particularly within biology and economics. Ortlieb also wrote polemic articles in the paper Konkret.[4] Ortlieb died on 15 September 2019 at the age of 72.[7]
