Reference excerpt

Maik Tändler (born in 1979) is a German historian.

Life and work Maik Tändler was born in Kassel in 1979. He obtained a doctorate from the University of Göttingen in 2015. He has researched German psychology and psychotherapy in the 1970s as cultural history, which was the subject of his PhD dissertation and a 2016 monograph. He has studied the intellectual history of the political right and radical right in Germany. In 2025, he published a monograph about Armin Mohler, a central person of the post-war German New Right, as well as the intellectual milieu around him and how contemporary right-wingers continue to build on his work.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Maik Tändler

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Maik Tändler claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In astronomy, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Maik Tändler before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Maik Tändler ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Maik Tändler

In research: Maik Tändler appears in astronomy research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Maik Tändler in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Maik Tändler is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1979 births, 21st-century German historians, Academic staff of the University of Jena, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Maik Tändler outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
