Powers\, Processes and Persistence \;is the final manifestation of the DFG-Network on Change and Change-Makers (CCM). The goal of CCM was to enable a dialogue about the future of the debate about persistence. In contrast to the standard debate about persistence\, where change is simply presupposed\, CCM looks closer at how changes come about and how they are mitigated through time. The working hypotheses was that powers are the change makers bringing about change\, which unfold as processes over time. These\, in turn\, are the basis for persistence. \;Powers\, Processes and Persistence \;is thus not just a random sequence of words\, but a blueprint for a deeper understanding of the \;ontological connections between these three fields. These connections will be illuminated from various sides by contributions from experts of all three fields.
