Ivan Krastev

The populist moment

Unlike the extremist parties of the 1930s, the new populist movements do not aim to abolish democracy: quite the opposite, writes Ivan Krastev. What we are witnessing is a conflict between elites suspicious of democracy and increasingly illiberal publics. [Slovak version added] [ more ]

The malady of infinite aspiration

"Esprit" watches market prophecies self-fulfil; "Blätter" calls off the bets in the financial casino; "Mute" refutes the received wisdom about inflation; "Dilema veche" notes how the financial crisis is reimposing the East-West divide; "New Humanist" turns to Durkheim to make sense of the depression; "Wespennest" doesn't give in to resignation; "Le Monde diplomatique" (Berlin) enters the belly of the piggy bank; "Vikerkaar" heeds cultures' anthropophagic appeal; "Dialogi" warns of a cultural wasteland in Maribor; and "Kritika & Kontext" returns a lost son to Bratislava.

Hannah Arendt, Hans-Jürgen Benedict

Briefwechsel

Einer kleinen Sensation kommt die Erstveröffentlichung eines Briefwechsels zwischen dem damals 25-jährigen Theologiestudenten Hans-Jürgen Benedict und Hanna Arendt in den Jahren 1967-68 gleich. Flammende Empathie und Überzeugungen eines jungen Studenten treffen darin auf sachliche aber vehemente Argumentation der Philosophin. Diese Korrespondenz bietet einen genauen Einblick in Arendts Beurteilung der Studentenbewegung.

Zum weiterlesen: Wolfgang Kraushaar, Hannah Arendt und die Studentenbewegung. Anmerkungen zum Briefwechsel zwischen Hans-Jürgen Benedict und Hannah Arendt.
