    in Germany at least, there has been a huge shift in academic psychology from being a more or less liberal arts (Geisteswissenschaften?) subject to becoming much more grounded in the natural sciences (read: biology, neurosciences, medicine, experiments, statistics). thus, when i did my degree Reich was only mentioned in history of psychology courses, Adorno not all. my understanding is that Freud et al are still discussed in liberal arts subjects

    i Kind of doubt it. in a video i saw if the process they were using hardfired bricks. i don’t believe any organic compounds would survive the heat.

    (dung might be a better term for what you were referring to. i seem to remember that because of the way they feed their cattle the dung has a very high fibre content which makes it a good source for building material. it’s nowhere as gross as the diarrhea like consistency we get from cows in Europe)

    this is my impression. back when i still was in academia it would pop up from time to time but i never published there since i never cited any of their journals in the first place. (why would one publish there when all your peers are somewhere else). nowadays i sometimes get requests from them to my personal email for special issues which i just ignore. (it’s academic spam essentially).

    have a look at retraction watch https://retractionwatch.com/?s=mdpi
