Klaus Lederer
Klaus Lederer gehört zu den prägenden politischen Köpfen unserer Zeit. Er ist ein Linker mit Lebenslust, ein Theoriefreudiger mit Nerv für die Tat, ein Sach-Bearbeiter mit Fantasie. Im Gespräch mit Hans-Dieter Schütt gewährt Lederer Einblicke in seine Arbeit, seine Ansichten und auch in sein Privatleben. Der erprobte A-cappella-Sänger, Ausdauersportler und leidenschaftliche Literaturfreund zeigt sich von jenen Seiten, die ihn zum beliebtesten Politiker der Hauptstadt gemacht haben, provoziert aber zugleich mit seiner Haltung wider Normen und Biederkeit. "Klaus Lederer sieht Berührungspunkte, wo andere Unvereinbarkeiten sehen. Er ist ein Mensch, der alles, das aus dem Nichts entsteht, gedeihen lässt – wie geschaffen für ein langes politisches Leben." Stefan Willeke, DIE ZEIT
Mit links die Welt retten
Meine Vision für eine bessere Zukunft Die Welt ist in einer akuten Krise, doch die politische Linke tritt auf der Stelle. Ist links zu sein aus der Zeit gefallen? Oder kann uns nicht gerade die sozialistische Idee helfen, unser Land und unseren Globus progressiv zu verändern? Vielfache Krisen und Zukunftsängste beherrschen unseren Alltag. Die Beruhigungspillen der Merkel- Jahre wirken nicht mehr. Einst ist die Linke angetreten, um ein besseres Leben für Alle zu erstreiten. Heute muss sie um ihr politisches Überleben fürchten. Ein wütender Populismus und Zerstrittenheit lähmen sie. Der frühere Kulturbürgermeister Berlins und einer der beliebtesten Politiker seiner Partei denkt Links...

The Sustainable Museum
The Sustainable Museum is the first book to outline a coherent strategy for the direction of museums, as it relates to sustainability in the museum and heritage sector. Arguing that museums must place sustainability at the centre of all their activities, if they are to become key actors with a clear societal role, Garthe considers the issues that museums will likely face as they take on their new roles. Presenting case studies from a wide range of museums around the world, the book considers different ways of implementing sustainability in different types and sizes of institutions. Whilst the book clearly outlines the need for change, it also provides guidance about how to change. Garthe doe...
Ethics and Human Rights in a Globalized World
In a globalized world, an interdisciplinary dialogue on ethics and human rights is possible, necessary and fruitful for jurisprudence. Human rights can be understood as formalized ethics, and ethics can thus serve as a foundation for human rights. They are the framework for a communication of rights, and this communication is the context in which wrongs can be transformed into rights. Ethics do however also shape existing (recognized) human rights. Human rights are ethics in action. The enforcement of human rights, especially in international criminal law, as well as the implementation structures bring the ideas and principles of rights to life in a globalized world. Thus it is advisable to ...

After Auschwitz
From the moment of its inception, the East German state sought to cast itself as a clean break from the horrors of National Socialism. Nonetheless, the precipitous rise of xenophobic, far-right parties across the present-day German East is only the latest evidence that the GDR’s legacy cannot be understood in isolation from the Nazi era nor the political upheavals of today. This provocative collection reflects on the heretofore ignored or repressed aspects of German mainstream society—including right-wing extremism, anti-Semitism and racism—to call for an ambitious renewal of historical research and political education to place East Germany in its proper historical context.
Multistable Figures
Multistable figures offer an intriguing model for arbitrating conflicting positions. Moving back and forth between different aspects, one recognizes that contradictory descriptions of a situation can be equally valid and that disputes over the correct account can be settled without dissolving differences or establishing a higher synthesis. Yet, the experience of a gestalt switch also offers a model for radical conversions and revolutions, that is, for irreversible leaps to incommensurable alternatives foiling ideals of rational choice while providing the possibility and necessity of decision. Accentuating the temporal dimensions of multistable figures, this multidisciplinary volume illuminates the critical potential and limits of multistability as a complex figure of thought.
