Ein aktueller Blick auf unser Land von den Machern der "Lage der Nation" – Deutschlands beliebtestem Politik-Podcast. Es bröckelt an den Fundamenten unseres Staates. Ob beim maroden Gesundheitssystem, den katastrophalen Defiziten im Bildungssektor oder der wenig beherzten Energiewende: Deutschland hat Reformen und Investitionen jahrelang verschlafen und ausgebremst. Nun kommt es nur schwer in die Gänge. In zehn Kapiteln beschreiben Philip Banse und Ulf Buermeyer die wichtigsten Probleme.

Part of a coordinated, nationwide Vietnam moratorium effort that confounded and infuriated the Nixon White House, the San Marcos 10 challenged their suspension, taking their case all the way to the United States Supreme Court. Author E. R. Bills offers this fascinating glimpse into the 1960s antiwar movement in Texas, the extraordinary measures to quell it, and the broader social activism in which it participated.

Moralisch Weltspitze, klimabewusst, divers, postkolonial, aber voller Illusionen – ein Sittenbild der bunten deutschen Republik. Man kratzt sich am Kopf. War Deutschland nicht eben noch das beliebteste Land der Welt, beneideter Exportweltmeister und begehrter Investitionsstandort mit einer funktionierenden Verwaltung und bestens ausgebildeten Fachkräften? Der Dreiklang aus Demokratie, Marktwirtschaft und einer Arbeitsdisziplin, die im Rest der Welt zugleich gefürchtet und belächelt wird, hat den Ruf „Made in Germany" zum Weltkulturerbe gemacht.

Die Mordserie des NSU (2000–2006), der Terroranschlag von Anders Breivik (2011), das Attentat in München (2016), das Massaker von Christchurch, der Mord an Walter Lübcke (2019), die Anschläge von Halle (2019) und Hanau (2020): Rechtsextreme Gewalt beschäftigt uns schon lange – und in den letzten Jahren besonders massiv. Mit Wahlerfolgen radikaler Parteien, wie zuletzt in Schweden und Italien, droht der Rechtsextremismus mehrheitsfähig zu werden; im Zuge sozialer Proteste könnten extreme Gruppierungen zu einer umfassenden Bewegung zusammenfinden.

Sinkende Wahlbeteiligung, Kirchenaustritte, fallende TV-Quoten und Zeitungs-Auflagen: Viele Menschen fühlen sich vom Angebot, das ihnen die politische und mediale Öffentlichkeit in Deutschland macht, nicht mehr angesprochen. Zugleich erhöhen Multi-Krisen und eine immer kaputtere Daseinsvorsorge – Schienenverkehr, die Schulen, die Verwaltung – den Stress der Bürgerinnen und Bürger. Jetzt wird das Erbe von vier Jahrzehnten neoliberaler Fehlsteuerung des Staates als Erosion der materiellen und mentalen Infrastrukturen erkennbar.

When #BlackLivesMatter emerged in 2013, it animated the most consequential Black-led mobilization since the civil rights and Black power era. Today, the hashtag turned rallying cry is but one expression of a radical reorientation toward Black politics, protest, and political thought. To Build a Black Future examines the spirit and significance of this insurgency, offering a revelatory account of a new political culture—responsive to pain, suffused with joy, and premised on care—emergent from the centuries-long arc of Black rebellion, a tradition that traces back to the Black slave.

Are you increasingly alarmed by the moral, cultural, and political condition of America today? Does the direction our country and society are headed give you hope and encouragement regarding the future for your children and grandchildren, or cause you concern? Why have we veered so far off course from the Judeo-Christian values and principles on which our nation was founded? How can we as concerned citizens and people of faith re-embrace the best of our rich history and heritage in the 21st century?

Mallory McMorrow was on the verge of giving up. She knew the work of legislating wouldn’t be easy, but she hadn’t been expecting an insidious culture of sexual harassment, armed protestors storming the state Capitol, or colleagues who had zero interest in reaching across the aisle to get anything meaningful done—and things really needed to get done. Where could one even start? But then fate forced her hand.

Most of us want our lives to have meaning and purpose, but too often we don’t know where to start. Each of us has unique gifts, talents, and perspectives that the world needs right now. We just have to find the courage to realize what they are. Flip the Tables is for people who have been told that they cannot change the world, even though they know otherwise. Alencia Johnson shares her personal stories—from working through insecurities and overcoming adversity, to advocating for women’s rights at Planned Parenthood, and advising on presidential campaigns.

Power to the People addresses growing voter apathy and disenchantment worldwide - that familiar sense that governments have become decoupled from their constituencies, that votes no longer count, and that politicians and institutions are too focused on short-term issues to grapple with complex global issues such as climate change and rising inequality. The book is structured into two halves, the first half diagnosing problems and the second half proposing solutions. Danny urges listeners to make a positive difference through engagement and active citizenry.

Am 7. Dezember 2022 rückten mehr als 3 000 Polizisten zur wohl größten Anti-Terror-Razzia in der Geschichte der Bundesrepublik aus. Sie verhafteten die Rädelsführer einer Gruppe aus dem Reichsbürgermilieu, die einen gewaltsamen Umsturz der Regierung geplant hatte. Wer aber sind diese Reichsbürger, die die Bundesrepublik Deutschland nicht als legitimen Staat anerkennen, von einer BRD GmbH fabulieren und sich immer noch im Deutschen Reich wähnen?

In the 1970s, Washington’s center of power began to shift away from elected officials in big marble buildings to a handful of savvy, handsomely paid operators who didn’t answer to any fixed constituency. The cigar-chomping son of an influential congressman, an illustrious political fixer with a weakness for modern art, a Watergate-era dirty trickster, the city’s favorite cocktail party host—these were the sort of men who now ran Washington.

American Identity in Crisis weaves together three remarkable stories: the making of an activist in the wake of the 2016 presidential election; the fight against the onerous rules that are being used to keep vulnerable and targeted populations from participating in all facets of American life -from obtaining jobs and housing to going to the polls—and how we can solve a problem that impacts millions of American adults. Kat Calvin ties all of these threads together in profound ways.

After a series of escapades both online and off that brought him in and out of 4chan forums, the halls of power, heroin addiction, and federal prison, Barrett Brown is a free man. He was arrested for his part in an attempt to catalog, interpret, and disseminate top-secret documents exposed in a security lapse by the intelligence contractor Stratfor in 2011. An influential journalist who is also active in the hacktivist collective Anonymous, Brown recounts exploits from a life shaped by an often self-destructive drive to speak truth to power.

Rules to Win By: Participation and Power in Union Negotiations is a book for anyone who wants to understand how to build the power required to effectively challenge and reverse income inequality and attacks on democracy.

Demokratie in Gefahr – und was wir dagegen tun können. Es sind beunruhigende Zeiten: Vor wenigen Jahren waren Rechtsextremisten im Parteienspektrum noch weitgehend isoliert. Heute denken Teile der Union offen über eine Koalition mit ihnen nach. Und während antidemokratische Positionen in der Breite der Gesellschaft stetig an Zustimmung gewinnen, verzeichnet die AfD in den Wahlumfragen für 2024 Spitzenwerte. Höchste Zeit, sich mit der realen Gefahr einer autoritären Machtübernahme auseinanderzusetzen.

It Takes Chutzpah is an inspirational call to action by a senior U.S. politician, describing how Americans of all age groups, persuasions, and occupations can defy convention, chart new pathways for their communities, schools, at work and in life. US Senator Ron Wyden is widely praised for coming up with sensible-sounding ideas no one else had thought of and making the counter-intuitive political alliances that prove helpful in passing bills. In It Takes Chutzpah, he offers a progressive leader’s manifesto for being a courageous warrior during turbulent times.

It has been the source of some of the most explosive scandals in American politics over the last century, quietly shaping U.S. foreign policy while producing lucrative paydays for some of the biggest names in Washington. But the foreign influence industry has remained shrouded in mystery, defying understanding and explanation—until now. Selling America shines a harsh light on the shadowy intersection of U.S. government diplomacy and private dealmaking.
