Die Debatte mit Natascha Freundel, Kerstin Kohlenberg und Timo Lochocki --- "Deutschland ist aktuell wahrscheinlich die mächtigste Liberaldemokratie der Welt." (Timo Lochocki) --- Viele Prognosen zur 60. Präsidentschaftswahl der USA sagten ein Kopf-an-Kopf-Rennen der beiden Kandidaten voraus. Am 6. November 2024 mittags, dem Tag nach der Wahlnacht, zeichnen wir diese Podcast-Folge auf – und der klare Wahlsieg für Donald Trump steht fest: ein von seiner Partei, den Republikanern, fast kultisch gefeierter Ex-Präsident, ein notorischer Lügner, Hochstapler und verurteilter Sexualstraftäter. Kamala Harris, die Kandidatin der Demokraten, Juristin mit jamaikanisch-indischem Hintergrund, wollte das Weiße Haus als erste Frau in der Geschichte der USA erobern. Derzeit könne keine Institution die US-Demokratie wirkmächtig schützen, glaubt der Politologe Timo Lochocki. Er fordert die deutsche Politik zur Besinnung auf die Stärken der Mitte und der sozialen Marktwirtschaft auf. Kann Deutschland das neue Amerika werden? ZEIT-Journalistin Kerstin Kohlenberg ist skeptisch und der Bruch der Regierungskoalition nach dieser Aufzeichnung scheint ihre Zweifel zu bestätigen. --- Kerstin Kohlenberg war von 2014 bis 2021 USA-Korrespondentin der ZEIT. Kürzlich erschien ihr Buch: „Das amerikanische Versprechen. Vom Streben nach Glück in einem zerstrittenen Land“ (Tropen). --- Timo Lochocki ist Politologe und Experte für Rechtspopulismus und lehrt am Bard College Berlin. Im Februar 2025 erscheint sein neues Buch: „Deutsche Interessen: Wie wir zur stärksten Demokratie der Welt werden – und damit den liberalen Westen retten“ (Herder). -- Mehr Infos s. https://www.radiodrei.de/derzweitegedanke Wir freuen uns über Ihre Kommentare, gern an derzweitegedanke@radiodrei.de.

Wenn am 5. November in den USA gewählt wird, dann geht es nicht nur um “America”, das Donald Trump wieder “great” machen will. Es geht auch um die Rolle der USA in der Welt. Die Unterstützung der Ukraine hängt maßgeblich vom Ausgang dieser Wahl ab, ebenso die Frage, wie man mit dem Krieg in Gaza umgeht. Es geht um die Finanzierung der NATO und die Rolle des Weltpolizisten USA. Dabei meinen wir, den einen Kandidaten genau zu kennen und viele fürchten seine Wiederwahl. Sein Gegenüber aber ist, vor allem was die Außenpolitik angeht, ein relativ unbeschriebenes Blatt. Welche Auswirkungen diese Wahl hat, für das große Land jenseits des Atlantiks und für uns hier in Europa, darüber wollen wir heute reden: mit dem Amerikanisten, Christian Lammert, über die Innenpolitik der USA, mit Boris Vormann, dem Leiter der Politics-Section am Bard College Berlin, über die Auswirkungen für Europa, mit dem Philosophen, Werner Peters, über das Wahlsystem und die Wertschätzung der Demokratie in den USA und mit dem Kommunikationswissenschaftler, Jörg-Uwe Nieland, über die Macht der Stars, wie George Clooney oder Taylor Swift. Podcast-Tipp: Heute haben wir gleich zwei Podcast-Tipps für Sie. Die Podcasts „11km“ und „PlusMinus“ haben sich nämlich intensiver mit der Wirtschaftspolitik von Donald Trump und Kamala Harris beschäftigt. Wirtschaftspläne entscheiden immer mit über Präsident:innen und haben nach der Wahl Effekte auf die weltweite Ökonomie. In 11KM erzählt BR-Wirtschaftsjournalistin Christine Bergmann von Donald Trumps Versprechen und Drohungen, sollte er US-Präsident werden - und den möglichen Auswirkungen in den USA, Deutschland und weltweit. Und den Deepdive in Kamala Harris' Wirtschaftspolitik gibt's im PlusMinus-Podcast. 11km: https://www.ardaudiothek.de/episode/11km-der-tagesschau-podcast/america-first-was-donald-trumps-wirtschaftsplaene-fuer-deutschland-bedeuten/tagesschau/13815911/ PlusMinus: https://1.ard.de/plusminus-podcast-USWahl

Die Alternative für Deutschland wird in den Umfragen immer stärker. In Sachsen, Thüringen und Brandenburg wird sie ziemlich sicher als stärkste Kraft die Landtagswahlen gewinnen. Bei der Europawahl ist sie für jeden vierten Wähler attraktiv. Das kann sich noch ändern, klar aber ist: die Rechten werden zur maßgeblichen Kraft in der Demokratie. SPD, Grüne, FDP und Linke laufen ihr hinterher. Was bedeutet das für Deutschland? Was erhoffen sich die Wähler von der AfD? Und warum sind die anderen Parteien so schwach?

In this episode, we encounter the show's very first featured geographer.  UK-born Doreen Massey was a pioneer in her field. She challenged existing ideas about space, place and power, was compassionate, politically active, and hopeful.   She worked in academia and as a public intellectual, including at British early-morning TV fans' beloved Open University – teaching students who didn't have access to a traditional university education – and also in Nicaragua, Venezuela and South Africa. That work focused on economic geography and the geography of gender, and she spoke eloquently about place or space as “a pincushion of a million stories”. Her list of publications vies in length with her honors and awards – including a pretty impressive total of six honorary degrees.  Our talk is presented by Agata Lisiak, a professor of Migration Studies at Bard College Berlin, and a DLS regular, who has previously talked about Marie Curie and Rosa Luxemburg.  DLS co-founder Katy Derbyshire joins producer/host Susan Stone to introduce the episode, and talk a bit about the Open University, an important place for Doreen Massey and many others.  You can find Agata's podcast series on Doreen Massey, Spatial Delight, where ever you like to listen, and also here, where there are additional features: https://thesociologicalreview.org/podcasts/spatial-delight/ Photos and clips of Massey can also be found on our podcast episode page here:  https://deadladiesshow.com/2023/08/17/podcast-66-doreen-massey To get tickets for our upcoming PodFest Berlin event in October just click here: https://www.podfestberlin.com/event-details/dead-ladies-show-Oct2023-special Sign up for the Dead Ladies Show newsletter here: https://tinyletter.com/deadladiesshow  and find us on social media @deadladiesshow and @deadladiesshow.bsky.social For DLS NYC info and tickets, sign up to their newsletter here: https://tinyletter.com/DeadLadiesShowNYC or follow them on Instagram @deadladiesnyc Our theme music is “Little Lily Swing” by Tri-Tachyon https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Tri-Tachyon/the-kleptotonic-ep/little-lily-swing Find our Patreon page here:  www.patreon.com/deadladiesshowpodcast The TeePublic shop for DLS logo treats is here: https://www.teepublic.com/user/dead-ladies-show Thanks for listening!

"I know you are in there. I wonder if you can hear my voice or feel my presence, my touch. You might not even look like a human being yet. I once saw pictures in a biology book and I know that a human fetus looks pretty much the same as a piglet for a long time. But those look cute when they come out. Nothing like a baby, with its big head, all blue and squishy, covered in yellowish paste. I have seen it before, a long time ago, and the images have never left me. You will most likely be even more ugly. Being evil leaves its marks..."In this episode, Erin O'Loughlin, Sharon Mertins and special guest Rebecca Rukeyser talk about dystopias, dark stories, and why we love  grim narratives so much!REBECCA RUKEYSER is the recipient of a 2018 Grant for Non-German Literature, awarded by the Berlin Senate Department for Culture and Europe.

Shriver has received the Defense Distinguished Service medal, and Treasury's highest award, the Alexander Hamilton Medal.

In this episode I speak with Titus Techera about Dune, Bladerunner, science fiction, dystopian film, technocratic view of humanity, and the formative power of science fiction on the imagination. We discuss contemporary technological society, social breakdown, loneliness, men and women and decline in marriage, technology and trans-humanism/ transgenderism, and the predictive power of dystopian film. We talk about what it means to be human and the relationship between digital technology and humanity. Titus argues that much of sport, military, modern manliness and excellence has been reduced to science and creatures of technology. He argues that one of the “catalysts for science fiction stories is disappointment with the world. The dead hand of the past is too powerful. People are always a problem; tradition gets in the way of radical innovation. Science fiction is aware of the problem of our decadence, but technical daring can solve it.” And yet in the science fiction societies like Bladerunner there is a wealthy technical class amidst brutality, societal decline where everyone has lost their humanity. He writes As with all science fiction set in the near future, Blade Runner is an attempt to make us look at ourselves as though we were strangers to ourselves, allowing for the possibility that serious changes can come suddenly and overcome our beliefs or preferences. Could we end up like Deckard, Harrison Ford's character, a bounty hunter, or “blade runner?” We need not embrace this kind of despair, but only need understand its appeal. The social landscape of Blade Runner seems plausible enough. The film presents American cities overrun by crime and poverty while technological corporations become immensely wealthy… A suitably dramatic expression of something we see around us quite often; indeed, perhaps exaggeration is necessary, since we have an excusable, but unfortunate tendency to ignore the misery of American cities. Themes we discuss include Science and scientism, Atheism and religion, Nihilism and utopianism, Social engineering of people, Medicine Covid pandemic and vaccine mandates Tension between scientific progress in digital technology and scientific and technological stagnation in other areas.

Das Konjunkturpaket der USA für Wirtschaft und Klima schadet massiv europäischen Firmen. Inflation, Energiekrise, die Nachwirkungen von Corona, Ukrainekrieg und russische Aggression, schließlich der Konflikt mit China – der Westen wird überall herausgefordert. Ein Handelskrieg zwischen Partnern und Verbündeten käme in dieser Weltlage einer Katastrophe gleich. Doch genau auf diese Katastrophe steuern wir zu.Thomas Ihm diskutiert mit Julia Friedlander – Geschäftsführerin der Atlantik-Brücke, Berlin; Ulrich Ladurner – Korrespondent der ZEIT, Brüssel; Prof. Boris Vormann – Politikwissenschaftler, Bard-College Berlin

Bei den Midterm-Wahlen geht es traditionell darum, „dem amtierenden Präsidenten eins auszuwischen“, meint Boris Vormann, Politikwissenschaftler vom Bard-College Berlin im SWR2 Gespräch. Die aufgeheizte Stimmung dieser Midterms zeige das vor allem, dass der ehemalige Präsident Donald Trump die republikanische Partei noch fest im Griff habe. Bisher seien deshalb die meisten Wahlen gegen die amtierende Partei aus. Den Begriff „Schicksalswahl“ würde er jedoch vermeiden wollen, weil dann mehr „Hype“ entstünde, als es notwendig sei.

In conversation with Annie Liontas, author of Let Me Explain You and co-editor of the anthology A Manner of Being: Writers on their Mentors Praised by Carmen Maria Machado as ''a sharp, flawless ... sexy and dark and strange and absolutely perfect'' debut novel, Rebecca Rukeyser's The Seaplane on Final Approach is about the increasingly elaborate erotic desires of a young woman working on a remote and chaotic Alaskan tourist island. A professor of fiction writing at Bard College Berlin and the recipient of the inaugural Berlin Senate Endowment for non-German literature, Rukeyser has published stories in a variety of publications, including ZYZZYVA, The Massachusetts Review, and The Best American Nonrequired Reading. Annie Liontas' debut novel, Let Me Explain You (Scribner), was featured in The New York Times Book Review as Editor's Choice and was selected by the ABA as an Indies Introduce Debut and Indies Next title.  She is the co-editor of the anthology A Manner of Being: Writers on their Mentors.  Annie's work has appeared in The New York Times Book Review, NPR, Gay Magazine, BOMB, Guernica, McSweeney's, and elsewhere.  The Gloss, her interview series with women and genderqueer writers, is running at BOMB, The Believer, and Electric Literature.  Her informed memoir, Sex with a Brain Injury will be published in January 2024.  Annie is a member of The Claw, a Philadelphia salon for women and genderqueer writers.

US-Präsident Joe Biden ist mit dem Anspruch angetreten, die tief gespaltene amerikanische Gesellschaft zu versöhnen. Nach den toxischen Trump-Jahren wollte er eine neue Einigkeit in dem polarisierten Land herstellen. Seine Reformanstrengungen, oder besser gesagt Reparaturarbeiten, richteten sich also von Tag eins seiner Amtszeit auf das Inland. „Build back better“ nennen der Präsident und seine Regierung dieses umfassende Programm. Doch diese innenpolitische Agenda droht bereits jetzt, in sich zusammenzufallen. Biden ist in seiner ersten ernsten Krise. Zwar konnte er mit dem nun unterzeichneten Infrastrukturgesetz nach einer langen parlamentarischen Hängepartie einen Teilerfolg feiern, auch weil einige Republikaner dem riesigen Vorhaben ihre Unterstützung gaben. Allerdings befindet sich das im Vergleich dazu noch ambitioniertere Sozialpaket nach wie vor im Gesetzgebungsverfahren. Dies liegt zum Erstaunen von Beobachtern in erster Linie an Bidens Demokratischer Partei, obwohl diese über eine Mehrheit im Kongress verfügt. Nach den Midterm Elections in knapp einem Jahr könnte der Präsident schon eine „Lame Duck“ sein. Was waren bzw. sind die strittigen Punkte in den beiden umfangreichen Vorhaben zur Infrastruktur und Sozial-, Familien- und Klimapolitik? Warum bekommt Biden, der während seiner gesamten Laufbahn Kompromisse im Kongress geschmiedet hat, seine eigenen Parteikollegen sowohl des progressiven Flügels als auch im konservativen Spektrum nicht auf Linie? Sollte Biden mit seiner innenpolitischen Agenda scheitern, ist es sehr wahrscheinlich, dass die Demokraten in den Zwischenwahlen beide Kammern des Kongresses an die Republikaner verlieren. Bleibt Biden in der zweiten Hälfte seiner Präsidentschaft dann nur noch die internationale Bühne, um Fortschritte zu erzielen? Wo liegt die Zukunft der Demokratischen Partei nach Joe Biden? Wie realistisch ist es, dass Donald Trump nach einem republikanischen Wahlerfolg im nächsten Herbst 2024 erneut für das Amt des US-Präsidenten kandidiert? Die Podcast-Hosts David Deißner, Atlantik-Brücke, und Stormy-Annika Mildner, Aspen Institute Deutschland, diskutieren diese Fragen mit Ines Pohl, Leiterin des Studios der Deutschen Welle in Washington, D.C. und Professor Boris Vormann, Director Politics Concentration des Bard College Berlin.

**This episode contains brief mentions of suicide and suicide attempts, as well as some humorous profanity**   In this edition of the Dead Ladies Show Podcast, DLS co-founder Florian Duijsens introduces us to the eccentric Dada artist Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven.  An eternally eclectic, German-born New Yorker, the Baroness was known for living life as a work of art, wearing a collage of found items, from tin cans to postage stamps to live birds, seducing almost everyone she met, and creating mind-blowing poetry and sculptures, and never making money for her art, leading to her poverty. These days, she deserves some reclaimed recognition for creating the found art genre known as Readymades, including a particular infamous sculpture credited to French artist Marcel Duchamp (or Marcel Dushit, as the Baroness called him). DLS other co-founder Katy Derbyshire joins producer/host Susan Stone to introduce the show, which was recorded in front of a live audience of enthusiastic college students as part of the Bard College Berlin event Pankumenta back in 2019.  Find our more about Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven and see her art and self-fashioned fashions on our show notes page here: https://deadladiesshow.com/2021/10/16/podcast-47-elsa-von-freytag-loringhoven/ Our theme music is “Little Lily Swing” by Tri-Tachyon.

In seinen ersten 100 Tage hat sich Joe Biden als progressivster Präsident seit Lyndon B. Johnson etabliert, zieht Boris Vormann, Politikwissenschaftler am Bard College Berlin, Bilanz. Seine politische Vision habe Biden in seiner Rede vor dem US-Kongress klar formuliert, so Vormann.

Die Welt vergisst schnell. Donald Trump ist Geschichte, US-Präsident Biden schreibt sie gerade. In nur 100 Tagen hat er viele Entscheidungen seines Vorgängers abgewickelt, doch nicht alle. Biden erneuert alte Bündnisse, aber es bleibt beim harten Kurs gegen China. Der alte Mann im Weißen Haus ist ein Profi, der jetzt die Weichen stellt, die die Zukunft Amerikas und der Welt bestimmen werden.

In February 2015, the former Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) released a video showing their destruction of Mesopotamian antiquities at the museum of Mosul. Although perhaps ironic that images are used to show the destruction of images, a video intended to shock can be turned against its makers when analysed thoughtfully. Our guest this episode, Dr. Aaron Tugendhaft, argues in his latest book "The Idols of ISIS: From Assyria to the Internet" that iconoclasm at heart is a political manifesto a matter understood by Abbasid philosopher Abū Naṣr al-Farābī (d.951CE). Dr. Tugendhaft received his PhD from the Department of Hebrew and Judaic Studies at New York University in 2012 and also holds degrees in Art History and Social Thought from the University of Chicago. In 2013, he received the Jonas Greenfield Prize for Younger Semitists from the American Oriental Society. He currently teaches at Bard College Berlin. Timestamps 00.00 Introduction 02.40 Abū Naṣr al-Farābī (ca. 870–950) thought deeply about the relation between images and politics. He adapted the insights of ancient political philosophers—especially Plato and Aristotle—to make sense of prophetic religion. How do his political treatises shed light on Abraham's iconoclasm that ISIS claimed to uphold? 06.30 Where ISIS spoke of the need to cleanse the world of idols, their critics refer to a moral and legal imperative to protect cultural heritage. How do we see Al-Farābī's thesis play out in our contemporary context? 10.20 You also mention in your book how once archaeologists commonly removed so-called late levels—that is, medieval and modern Islamic remains—without recording them to get to the ancient layers underneath eliding the Islamic Middle East as though only the West beholds antiquity’s beauty today. What is called the "secular" can also have their idols, right? 13.30 Your book ends creatively employing al-Farābī's thoughts on images and politics in the age of video games. How would the philosopher have advised Trump? 22.55 Your book "The Idols of ISIS: From Assyria to the Internet" is published by University of Chicago Press. What are other current projects that listeners can anticipate? Dr. Tugendhaft, Thank you for being a guest on the Abbasid History Podcast! Sponsors We are sponsored by IHRC bookshop.

Neun Tage noch ist Donald Trump der US-Präsident. Die US-Demokraten wollen noch vorher ein Amtsenthebungsverfahren einleiten. Welche Bedeutung hat das für die US-Demokratie und Trump persönlich? Darüber sprechen wir mit Boris Vormann, Professor für Politikwissenschaft am Bard College Berlin.

Trump-Anhänger auf den Stufen des Kapitols, im Sitzungsraum des Parlaments, in den Büros der Abgeordneten und Senatoren, grölend, marodierend, prügelnd. Auch am Tag nach den dramatischen Ereignissen haben die Bilder aus Washington nichts von ihrer verstörenden Wirkung verloren. Ein gewaltsamer Putschversuch, sagen manche.

With the coronavirus pandemic, Modern Monetary Theory met its moment. A sudden and massive loss of output globally was met with an unprecedented response by governments and central banks and at least some official regret about excessive fiscal austerity after the 2008-09 crisis. Stephanie Kelton's The Deficit Myth: Modern Monetary Theory and the Birth of the People's Economy found a ready audience and remains in the New York Times Hardcover Nonfiction Best-Seller List six months after publication. Yet, one criticism of her book and of MMT generally is that its proponents, examples and policy proposals are overwhelmingly American and built on assumptions about having a sovereign and dominant global currency. Dirk Ehnts, a leading MMT proponent, seeks to address this criticism in  Modern Monetary Theory and European Macroeconomics (Routledge, 2016). In 2020, he published an updated edition in German as Money and Credit: A European Perspective (Metropolis, 2020). Dirk Ehnts earned his doctorate at the Carl von Ossietzky University in Oldenburg and has worked as an academic economist at the Berlin School of Economics and Law, the Free University Berlin, Bard College Berlin, the Technical University of Chemnitz and the University of Flensburg. In 2019, he organised the first European MMT conference and has scheduled the second for September 2021. *His own book recommendation is Reclaiming the State by William Mitchell and Thomas Fazi (Pluto Press, 2017).

A sudden and massive loss of output globally was met with an unprecedented response by governments and central banks and at least some official regret about excessive fiscal austerity after the 2008-09 crisis. Stephanie Kelton's The Deficit Myth: Modern Monetary Theory and the Birth of the People's Economy found a ready audience and remains in the New York Times Hardcover Nonfiction Best-Seller List six months after publication. Yet, one criticism of her book and of MMT generally is that its proponents, examples and policy proposals are overwhelmingly American and built on assumptions about having a sovereign and dominant global currency. Dirk Ehnts, a leading MMT proponent, seeks to address this criticism in  Modern Monetary Theory and European Macroeconomics (Routledge, 2016). In 2020, he published an updated edition in German as Money and Credit: A European Perspective (Metropolis, 2020). Dirk Ehnts earned his doctorate at the Carl von Ossietzky University in Oldenburg and has worked as an academic economist at the Berlin School of Economics and Law, the Free University Berlin, Bard College Berlin, the Technical University of Chemnitz and the University of Flensburg. In 2019, he organised the first European MMT conference and has scheduled the second for September 2021. *His own book recommendation is Reclaiming the State by William Mitchell and Thomas Fazi (Pluto Press, 2017).

The third edition of DICE Forum took place at Prinzessinnengärten in Neukölln on September 17th, featuring guests Dr. Edna Bonhomme and Daddypuss Rex. Our guest mix was made by Detroit-based dj ETTA. DICE Forum is a nomadic event series which explores artists’ personal biographies and artistic practices as well as their relationships to larger cultural movements and art forms. Each installment represents a different artistic perspective, delving into working environments, socio-political influences, creative processes, and more. Each in-depth artist talk is followed by a DJ set, in changing venues throughout Berlin. All talks and DJ mixes will be made available online shortly after each event, to allow everyone to participate regardless of location or current restrictions. About the Artists: Edna Bonhomme is a Black feminist, art worker, historian, lecturer, and writer whose work interrogates the archaeology of (post)colonial science, healing, and liberation. A central question of her work asks: what makes people sick? As a researcher, she answers this question by exploring the spaces and modalities of care and toxicity that shape the possibility for repair. She has collaborated and exhibited critical multimedia projects in Berlin, Copenhagen, Prague, and Vienna which explore the genealogical mutations of archives and memory. She is a co-host of the podcast Decolonization in Action through her Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science. In addition to her creative work, Edna has written for publications such as A frica is a Country, Aljazeera, The Baffler Magazine, Missy Magazine, The Nation Magazine, and other publications. She has taught courses at Humboldt University, Bard College Berlin, Drexel University and will be teaching a course entitled "Fear of a Pandemic" at Freie Universität this fall. You can follow her on Twitter at jacobinoire. By night, Daddypuss Rex is an intersectional gender terrorist with a big mouth and who isn’t afraid to use it. Based in Berlin, they are a multidisciplinary artist/poet/stand-up comedian and co-producer of the QueerTrans talk show ‘Just The T’. They often use a mix of poetry and humour to navigate topics such as white supremacy, misogynoir, transphobia and general colonial fuckery. With appearances and performances at the Schwules Museum, OWP nights, CurlCon, Maxim Gorki Theatre, Soho House as well as featuring on city-wide podcast and radio shows (Decolonization in Action, Love in the Time of Corona, Tipsy Bear Radio). Most recently, they co-created and facilitated a QueerTrans stand-up comedy workshop as part of the Outreach nGbK Scholarship 2020 (Vermittlungsstipendium nGbK 2020) - their goal is to touch hearts, minds and butts...with active consent! Conversely, by day, Daddypuss is a trauma-informed yoga teacher whose classes center Black and Queer experiences, narratives and bodies of all shapes, sizes and abilities - giving space to practitioners to fully exercise their agency on and off the mat and to hopefully (re)connecting them to their own bodies.

„Ich glaube, dass die USA momentan vor der größten Bewährungsprobe stehen seit dem Bürgerkrieg, also seit über 140 Jahren", sagt Prof. Boris Vormann, Politikwissenschaftler am Bard College Berlin in SWR2 am Morgen. Wenn die Wahlen angezweifelt würden, dann sei es nicht mehr klar, dass eine Partei abgelöst werden könnte. Und dann würde es schwierig für den Rest der Bevölkerung zu akzeptieren eine Wahl verloren zu haben mit der eigenen Partei. „Und die Spaltung ist extrem, die Spaltung war in den USA immer tief, aber sie ist so extrem, dass es jetzt einen Riss in der Bevölkerung zu geben scheint. Und das zu kitten, wird enorm schwierig", so Vormann.

As we head into the election in a rapidly changing country, we can see the ways that liberal politics are giving way to more radical policies around the world. Dean Shanahan and Professor of Practice Elaine Monaghan speak with Michael Weinman, Professor of Policy at Bard College Berlin, about his new coedited volume, “The Emergence of Illiberalism: Understanding a Global Phenomenon.” The trio discuss how we can understand trends away from liberal policies and politics, and what we might expect to replace them.

Roland Augustine is an art dealer, tireless activist, and active member at the Bard College Prison Initiative. We discuss the necessity of finding new ways of activism for social justice in our daily lives. Be an Advocate: Civic engagement means becoming an advocate for social equality and social justice. It can begin at the most basic level such as your town or school. You can give hands-on support and/or money to a cause that is important to you. Consistent and rigorous advocacy creates more knowledge and inspire change. Art Matters: The visual arts can effectively transform one's thinking. There are many powerful works of art, from paintings to monuments, that serve as beautiful and potent reminders of inhumanity in our collective history. Use your voice: Our silence on the world's humanitarian crises is deafening. Use your voice in your community to start a conversation about what we can do right now. Start with forwarding this podcast to your friends and family. Find out more: Roland Augustine is on the board of trustees at Bard College, where he is actively involved in the Bard Prison Initiative, as well as in supporting refugees at Bard College Berlin. He is also an active member of the Equal Justice Initiative in the US.
