Eine Ersatzsendung zu Themen die gerade am Laufen sind. Wir aber nichts dazu gemacht haben. ## Die anti-israelische Obsession. Ein Jahr nach dem 7. Oktober Wie man spätestens am 7. Oktober 2023 lernen mußte, war es keine süffisante Pointe und auch keine rhetorische Übertreibung, den israelischen Grenzzaun als antifaschistischen Schutzwall zu bezeichnen. Er wurde vor einem Jahr gewaltsam überwunden und massenhafte Pogrome nahmen ihren Lauf. Über das politische Urteilsvermögen mancher Zeitgenossen indes muß man sich sorgen: In Europa kann sich Antisemitismus – aus historischen Gründen – nicht mehr so plump, offensiv und rabiat ausagieren wie noch vor hundert Jahren, umso subtiler und verdruckster gebärdet er sich, zunehmend auch akademisch oder humanitär verbrämt. Die neoliberale, postmoderne Regression der Bildung, Filterblasen und gefühlte Wahrheiten ohnehin, haben auch vor der gesellschaftlichen Linken nicht halt gemacht. Als hätte es nie eine Erforschung und Kritik der Spezifika des Judenhasses gegeben, wird lautstark (und im Chor mit Klerikalfaschisten) einem Schablonendenken gefrönt, wie es noch jedem Stammtisch zur Ehre gereicht: Die anti-israelische Obsession äußert sich vor allem in Empörung und Pseudokritik im Modus des Shitstorms. Etliche Beiträge sind zu hören: * Jutta Ditfurth: "Die humanitäre Desinformation" (9 Minuten) * Ingo Elbe: "Die Postkoloniale Theorie und ihre Folgen" (5 Minuten) * Anmerkungen von Matthias Küntzel und Ingo Elbe (54 Minuten) * Miriam Dagan: "Ihre Heiligkeit die UNO" (9 Minuten) * "Historikerstreit 2.0 – Was wollen wir erinnern?" Ein Gespräch mit Lars Rensmann und Ingo Elbe (29 Minuten) Eine Sendung vom 20. Oktober 2024, produziert von Querfunk aus Karlsruhe. # Ersatzsendung Verschiedeneste Sendungen aus dem Umfeld der Freien Radios im deutschprachigem Raum. Immer mit einem Thema was uns hier im Radio beschäftigt, aber keiner was bei uns gemacht hat.

Understanding the Socio-psychological Roots of Contemporary Right-wing Populism Samir Gandesha One of the key problems of contemporary politics is the presence and growing power of right-wing populist movements throughout the Western world from the US "Tea Party," to Britain's UKIP to Pegida in Germany and Golden Dawn in Greece. This paper poses the following question: To what extent is it possible to draw upon the social-psychological concept of the "authoritarian personality" in the work of Erich Fromm and Theodor W. Adorno et. al. to understand the distinctive populist personality structure of contemporary neo-liberal capitalism?

In his new book, The Politics of Unreason: The Frankfurt School and the Origins of Modern Antisemitism (SUNY Press, 2017) , Lars Rensmann, Professor of European Politics and Society at the University of Groningen, argues that even scholars of the Frankfurt school have often treated the theme of antisemitism with scant attention. However, as Rensmann argues, the problem of antisemitism had been a central motivating dynamic for their interdisciplinary research, from the very early years of the Institute. In this episode, we begin by discussing the general silence surrounding the Holocaust that presided in Germany into the 1990s, and how this can be understood as part of a phenomenon that Critical Theory called “secondary antisemitism.” We then circle back to explore how the Critical Theorists explained the “primary” phenomenon of antisemitism as an interplay of psychological, social-historical, and economic dynamics. As we learn from this book’s rich analyses, the insights developed by the Frankfurt School on the authoritarian disposition, on hatred and racism, and on the pathologies of modernity retain deep relevance and applicability for the further understanding of today’s politics of unreason.
