What are your tricks to become tenured in our competitive Field? A friend of mine told me this; focus on top publications: that means not caring about students except for your teaching evaluation, Cheap teaching, always the same exam, little to no office hours, minimum time on reading students papers, feedback only if requested unsolid but fancy results with a great story & marketing, hiding data, hiding bad results, stop doing regressions one you find effects, be overconfident while describing results, acting skills are crucial, selective citing of papers and evidence, get a Twitter account, choose research question supporting important think tanks and the zeitgeist, become connected with influential researchers and institutions

In other words, playing a great dazzler and foamer. Coming soon to your theater.
yes, there is a larger number of this type of Schaumschlaeger around with high importance. Nobody will care about them in 20 years. But they rule, manipulate, play strategic powerhouse, and are basically an obstacle for real insights...

yes, there is a larger number of this type of Schaumschlaeger around with high importance. Nobody will care about them in 20 years.That's not true for the main reason that they will still be on W3s in 20 years.
Why care? If you gained tenure (even as a postdoc on A13 or A14-level) you can have a decent living as a deadwood. These Schaumschläger*innen ultimately have no power over you any longer and you can enjoy your live. So what is the problem? Do not care about those Schaumschläger*innen

Because Schaumschlaeger*innen distort many things: competition for a low number of (tenure) positions, teaching standards, the publication process and scientific progress.
Schaumschläger hin oder her. Das Grundproblem weiter Teile der Wirtschaftswissenschaften ist ein anderes: Sie sind auserzählt. Keine neuen Ideen, stattdessen billige Datenschubserei. Ich hab früher Finance gemacht, da gab es mal intellektuell fordernde Konzepte. Jetzt mach ich Methoden im Machine Learning. Da hat man Fortschritt und gute Leute.

Prinzipienreiterei-damit kann man sich unglücklich machen. Man muss nicht Karriere machen,um gut leben zu können

Hier muss man leider zustimmen. Mit diesen Aussagen wirst Du aber logischerweise in einem Jobforum für Ökonomen nicht auf viel Gegenliebe stoßen, weil diese Nutzlosigkeit, Redundanz, Ineffizienz und politische Rente suggerieren. Da wird man tendenziell eingeschnappt sein, obwohl man innerlich möglicherweise auch zustimmt.
