Max Czolleks legendäre Bücher "Desintegriert Euch!" und "Gegenwartsbewältigung" streuten lustvoll Zweifel an den deutschen Narrativen von Integration bis Leitkultur. Scharf, gewitzt und an jeder Stelle überraschend, schließt Versöhnungstheater diesen Kreis, wenn es nach der aktuellen Erinnerung an die Verbrechen der Vergangenheit fragt.

In this comprehensive biography, Anne C. Heller tracks the source of Arendt’s contradictions and achievements to her sense of being a “conscious pariah”.

Dieses Buch beginnt nicht mit einer Forderung, sondern mit einer Erschütterung: mit zwei Fenstern, eines in Israel, eines in Deutschland, und mit der Frage, was Geschichte aus Menschen macht, wenn sie nicht vergeht, sondern in ihnen weiterlebt. Es spricht von Schuld und Bedrängnis, von Orten...

The lack of intellect has caused the mind’s attachment to spouses, children, wealth, religion, practically everything. The virus of attachment has reached epidemic proportions and the world is in a state of emergency. Yet none seems to recognise the problem, much less tackle it. The solution lies in a concerted effort worldwide to resurrect the fallen intellect. A powerful intellect alone would destroy the virus and generate peace and harmony in the society.
