In the decades after World War II and the atrocities of the Holocaust, Germany deliberately underinvested in its military.

In this episode, Niki, Neil, and Natalia discuss the life and legacy of Mikhail Gorbachev. Support Past Present on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/pastpresentpodcast   Here are some links and references mentioned during this week's show:   Former leader of the Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev has died. We reflected on the slew of essays in S. publications remembering Gorbachev through a mostly positive light. Neil mentioned Saturday Night Live's frequent send-ups of Gorbachev.     In our regular closing feature, What's Making History: Natalia discussed Sarah Mervosh's New York Times article, “The Pandemic Erased Two Decades of Progress in Math and Reading,” which she also discussed on KCRW. Neil commented on Katrin Bennhold's New York Times article, “In Finland, a Partying Prime Minister Draws Tuts, and Cheers.” Niki recommended Bonnie Garmus' novel Lessons in Chemistry.

"David Perdue hat Gouverneur Brian Kemp als RINO entlarvt ... Es hat gezeigt, wie wichtig es für die MAGA-Wähler ist, Perdue zu unterstützen ... David Perdue … ist der einzige Republikaner, der Stacey 'The Hoax' Abrams schlagen kann." Auszüge aus E-Mails von Donald Trump, die in diesen Tagen wieder häufiger in den Postfächern seiner Anhänger auftauchen. RINO, "Republican In Name Only"; MAGA, "Make America Great Again". Der Ex-Präsident der USA nutzt alte Schlagworte, um im Wahlkampf seiner Partei vor den Midterms im November den Königsmacher zu spielen. Per E-Mail oder Interviews verteilt er seine Unterstützung an die Kandidatinnen und Kandidaten, die ihm passen. Von seinem Resort Mar-a-Lago in Florida aus regiert er und verbreitet weiter seine Lüge von der gestohlenen Wahl. Und diejenigen, die hoffen, in diesem Jahr gewählt oder wiedergewählt zu werden, wiederholen diese Lügen, weil sie darauf hoffen, dass es ihnen bei Trumps Anhängern Sympathien einbringt. So sieht der Wahlkampf 2022 für einen Großteil der Republikaner aus. Doch Parteizugehörigkeit ist für Trump dabei nebensächlich. Ohne Rücksicht geht es auch gegen die eigene Partei, nur "seine" Kandidaten sollen gewinnen. Brian Kemp, den er in einer seiner Mails beschimpft, ist Republikaner. Doch Trumps Ziel ist es, entscheidende Posten in den Bundesstaaten – von Gouverneuren über Senatoren bis zu Abgeordneten – mit seinen Leuten zu besetzen. Ob dem Ex-Präsidenten das wirklich gelingen kann, welche Strategien er dabei verfolgt, warum das auch für die Präsidentschaftswahl 2024 wichtig ist und wie seine Partei dazu steht, diskutieren wir im US-Podcast. Außerdem: die veröffentlichten Mitschnitte von Telefonkonferenzen, die Kevin McCarthy, Minderheitenführer der Republikaner im Repräsentantenhaus, in Bedrängnis bringen. Und ein Blick auf die aktuelle Position der US-Regierung in Bezug auf den Ukraine-Krieg und den Besuch von Verteidigungsminister Austin Lloyd und Außenminister Antony Blinken in Kiew. Und im "Get-out": die Recherche "The Former Chancellor Who Became Putin's Man in Germany" von Katrin Bennhold, Berlin-Korrespondentin der "New York Times", über Ex-Bundeskanzler Gerhard Schröder und die neue Netflix-Dokumentation mit Barack Obama, "Our Great Nationalparks". Der Podcast erscheint alle zwei Wochen donnerstags, die nächste Folge am 12. Mai. Sie erreichen uns per Mail an okamerica@zeit.de.

If we all can't travel or see loved ones across borders, please tell me at least it's working. In May, I found myself in tears when the British government decided to impose quarantines on anyone returning from France in order to combat covid-19. That was the last straw. How dare they close *my* border? Did it even serve a purpose? When in doubt, go to the library. I turned to science to find out if I had been right to cry or if indeed, the government was doing the right thing. What I found out is... it's complicated. 

En este ARDD (A Riesgo De Demanda) revisamos un articulo de Julian E. Barnes. reportero de seguridad radicado en Washington, donde cubre la labor de las agencias de inteligencia, y de Katrin Bennhold, jefa de la corresponsalía de Berlín de The New York Times.

Im zweiten Teil beleuchten die vier Podcaster den beginnenden Abzug der internationalen Truppen aus Afghanistan. Abschließend wie immer der “Sicherheitshinweis”, der kurze Fingerzeig auf aktuelle, sicherheitspolitisch einschlägige Themen und Entwicklungen - diesmal mit Abschreckung im Pazifik, einer vermeintlichen Seeschlacht, dem Corona-Kalender der Rüstungskontrolldiplomate und dem bevorstehenden Ende des “Vertrags über den Offenen Himmel (Open Skies)”.

Two battles over the meaning of democracy are now playing out in Europe. We look at the political power maneuvers this week in Britain and Italy. Guest: Katrin Bennhold, the Berlin bureau chief for The New York Times. For more information on today’s episode, visit nytimes.com/thedaily. Background coverage: Facing a furious backlash over his decision to suspend Parliament next month, Prime Minister Boris Johnson of Britain promised to speed up Brexit negotiations with Brussels.In Italy, two political parties that had been sworn political enemies struck a deal to form a new government that sidelined Matteo Salvini, the hard-right leader.Listen to “The Battle for Europe,” a series from “The Daily” with Katrin Bennhold about the future of liberal democracy in the European Union.

Tech companies have recently been criticised for not doing enough to control the negative effects of the internet. Spreading false information and hate speech, fomenting conflict, discontent and polarisation, and threatening peace and stability are among some of the most discussed issues. On the other hand, many tech companies have invested in this field and argue that it shouldn’t be them, but governments, who decide how the internet should be regulated. But who should decide these rules and who should enforce them? Current ideas include the creation of oversight authorities, imposing fines, increasing access to data for independent observers and improving the transparency of algorithms. The parameters set now will guide the future regulation of social media like Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube, and thus require the right balance between protecting freedom of speech and addressing concerns about accurate information, healthy public discourse, user privacy and political stability. Nick Clegg, Vice President of Global Affairs and Communications at Facebook, Benoit Loutrel, former Director General of France’s Electronic Communications and Postal Regulatory Authority (Arcep) and Daniela Stockmann of Hertie School of Governance came together for a debate moderated by Katrin Bennhold, The New York Times Berlin bureau chief on the current and future challenges of regulating the internet.

Across Europe, populists are saying that it’s not democracy they aim to discard, but liberalism. To end our series, we returned to Germany, the country at the heart of a liberal Europe, to see if the rejection of liberalism had also taken hold there.Guests: Katrin Bennhold, the Berlin bureau chief for The New York Times, and Clare Toeniskoetter and Lynsea Garrison, producers for “The Daily,” went to an election party in Berlin for the far-right party Alternative for Germany. For more information on today’s episode, visit nytimes.com/thedaily. Background reading: Germany’s political establishment looks increasingly fragile after the European Parliament elections.As anti-Semitic crime rises in Germany, new forms of old hatreds are stoking fear for the nation’s estimated 200,000 Jews.Katrin Bennhold offers her main takeaway after 10 days on the road: “Europe cannot be taken for granted. But neither can its demise.”

The decades-long plan to stitch together countries and cultures into the European Union was ultimately blamed for two crises: mass migration and crippling debt. Together, those events contributed to a wave of nationalism across Europe. In a five-part series this week, we take a look at some of the movements aiming to disrupt the E.U. from within. Guest: Katrin Bennhold, the Berlin bureau chief for The New York Times. For more information on today’s episode, visit nytimes.com/thedaily.Background reading:Before the European Parliament elections last month, Katrin Bennhold and producers of “The Daily” set out on a 10-day trip to find out what Europe means to Europeans today.The results of the elections indicated that the struggle over the future direction of the European Union would only intensify.

What is the best way to preserve the liberal international order (such as it is) going forward? Some counsel conservatism. Jennifer Lind and William Wohlforth argue that “the United States and its partners should consolidate the gains the order has reaped,” back away from democracy promotion, and resist the urge to add new members to existing alliances, especially those countries that bring more liabilities than capabilities. Are they right? Must the United States practice more discernment (Bryan’s word) or restraint (Chris’s), or does the order still depend upon American military primacy? Would it collapse or atrophy if the United States were less likely to employ force in the service of certain desirable, but non-essential, ends? Or would democracy and human rights flourish if promoted chiefly by the power of America's example, and carried forward by non-governmental organizations, as opposed to entities of the U.S. government? Also, Chris remembers Rep. Walter Jones, Melanie praises California Gov. Gavin Newsom, and, in a first, Germany earns both a grievance and (minor) attaboy in the same show.   Links  Jennifer Lind and William C.
