Der Fall Ulrike Guérot
Wissenschaftsfreiheit adé? Wer die zum Teil mit großem, ja exzessivem Eifer vorgebrachten Anwürfe an Ulrike Guérot einordnen will, sollte deren politischen Hintergrund kennen: In einer prominenten Talk-Show- Sendung sprach sich Ulrike Guérot ungeheuerlicherweise dafür aus, dass Diplomatie und Politik vor allem darauf abzielen sollten, die Möglichkeit nach Friedensverhandlungen im aktuellen Krieg in und um die Ukraine auszuloten. Am Tag nach der Ausstrahlung der Sendung wurden mit zunehmenden Verfolgungseifer Plagiatsvorwürfe laut, obwohl ihr Buch "Wer schweigt, stimmt zu" seit dem frühen Frühjahr auf dem Markt und allgemein erhältlich war, wochenlang die Spiegelbestellerliste in oberen Rängen besuchte und in etlichen Medien besprochen wurde. Angebote von Frau Guérot an Kritiker , sich zu einem Austausch, öffentlich oder nichtöffentlich, zu treffen, wurden ausgeschlagen, die Universität Bonn versucht aktuell Ulrike Guérot vom universitären Betrieb zu entfernen. Der vorliegende Band zeichnet diese Geschehnisse nach. Klar wird: Wer stört - wird mundtot gemacht. Wehren wir diesen Anfängen.
The European Balcony Project
#weproclaim! Das Buch zur Vision: Ulrike Guérot, Robert Menasse und Milo Rau riefen am 10. November 2018 in einem eindrucksvollen performativen Akt gemeinsam mit 30 000 Menschen und in über zwanzig Ländern in ganz Europa die Europäische Republik aus. Was für ein historischer Moment! Die Initiatorinnen und Initiatoren des European Balcony Project wollten damit einen Kontrapunkt zum europaweiten Wiedererstarken von Nationalismen setzen. Die rege Beteiligung zahlreicher Bürger sowie Institutionen hat gezeigt, dass der Wunsch nach einem demokratischen Europa, in dem für alle Bürger gleicher Zugang zu allen Rechten gewährleistet wird, nicht mehr ignoriert werden kann. Diese Publikation spiegelt die Intention des andauernden Projekts der Europäischen Republik
Our European Future: Charting a Progressive Course in the World
The world is facing many great challenges: from pandemics to climate change, and from increasing inequality to the issues surrounding digitalization. In a new and rapidly changing global landscape, Europe must look for solutions to these difficulties to follow up on its impressive decades-long process of integration. Europe has the capacity to chart a progressive course in the world. Our European Future offers solutions to rethink our socioeconomic model in the glare of the environmental and digital transformations; to redefine Europe’s role in the world to contribute to renewed multilateralism; to strengthen investment in public goods; and finally, to re-invent our democratic contract. The book brings together the insights of renowned experts from across Europe, and it should prove a handy guide for any progressive thinker, policymaker or activist, and for any citizen who would like to take part in the necessary democratic debate about our future. This book, edited by Maria João Rodrigues with the collaboration of François Balate, is a first contribution from the Foundation for European Progressives Studies to the Conference on the Future of Europe and beyond.
Memory and the Future of Europe
This book examines the role of collective memory in the origins and development of the European Union. It traces Europe's political, economic and financial crisis to the loss of these memories of the rupture of 1945. In order to survive the EU will have to prove that it can act effectively in the face of future challenges.
Exploring the EU’s Legitimacy Crisis
Exploring the EU’s Legitimacy Crisis provides a profound analysis of the causes and the consequences of the EU's growing legitimacy problem. The prior permissive consensus in the EU has been markedly declining under persistent crisis conditions. Since the onset of the eurozone crisis the EU's governance has been narrowly driven by the semi-hegemonial leadership of Germany – manifesting itself in functionalist and technocratic policy reforms concentrated on strengthening economic governance coordination. Other crucial policy areas have been neglected as member states show decreasing solidarity and a growing emphasis on national interests in response to mounting external challenges. This book examines these developments in detail by scrutinising the EU's ability to maintain legitimacy through political leadership, democratic accountability and governance efficiency.

The Vital Partnership
The Vital Partnership is a political, historical, and intellectual assessment of the transatlantic relationship between the United States and Europe that is, according to Simon Serfaty, clearly at a crossroads. Serfaty calls on the Bush administration to work with the Europeans to craft a new transatlantic charter, which will require three things: the EU and member states must assume a larger role in global relations; NATO must be willing and able to act locally to protect European security; America and the EU must implement a strategic security compact in the post-9/11 world.
Embattled Europe
A bracing corrective to predictions of the European Union’s decline, by a leading historian of modern Europe Is the European Union in decline? Recent history, from the debt and migration crises to Brexit, has led many observers to argue that the EU’s best days are behind it. Over the past decade, right-wing populists have come to power in Poland, Hungary, and beyond—many of them winning elections using strident anti-EU rhetoric. At the same time, Russia poses a continuing military threat, and the rise of Asia has challenged the EU's economic power. But in Embattled Europe, renowned European historian Konrad Jarausch counters the prevailing pessimistic narrative of European obsolescence...
Suits and Uniforms
This text examines the origins, organic political make-up and direction of Turkish foreign policy since the Cold War. Using four case studies, the author contends that since 1989 domestic factors have determined foreign policy.
Joschka Fischer and the Making of the Berlin Republic
Over the course of his long and controversial career, Joschka Fischer evolved from an archetypal 1960s radical--a firebrand street activist--into a shrewd political insider, operating at the heights of German politics. In the 1980s he was one of the first elected Greens and went on to become Germany's foreign minister from 1998 to 2005. His famous challenge to Donald Rumsfeld's case for invading Iraq--"Excuse me, I am not convinced"--won him worldwide recognition, and the Bush administration's contempt.Here is both a lively biography of Joschka Fischer and a gripping history 'from below'of postwar Germany. Paul Hockenos begins in the ruins of postwar Germany and guides us through the flashpo...
