Radicals & Rogues: The Women Who Made New York Modern (Reaktion, 2023) is the story of a group of women whose experiments in art and life set the tone for the rise of New York as the twentieth-century capital of modern culture. Across the 1910s and '20s, through provocative creative acts, shocking fashion, political activism, and dynamic social networks, these women reimagined modern life and fought for the chance to realize their visions. Taking the reader on a journey through the city's salons and bohemian hangouts, Radicals and Rogues celebrates the tastemakers, collectors, curators, artists, and poets at the forefront of the early avant-garde scene. Focusing on these trailblazers at the center of artistic innovation—including Beatrice Wood, Mina Loy, the Stettheimer sisters, Clara Tice, the Baroness Elsa von Freytag Loringhoven, Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, Marguerite Zorach, and Louise Arensberg—Lottie Whalen offers a lively new history of remarkable women in early twentieth-century New York City.

Sind wir plötzlich alle introvertiert? Im vergangenem Jahr haben wir in einer kurzen Folge darüber gesprochen und die Resonanz war groß. Wir schauen also nochmal hin: Was bedeutet eigentlich "introvertiert sein"? In dieser Folge fragen wir uns, was eigentlich passiert, wenn wir unsere Erschöpfung, das Bedürfnis nach Rückzug nicht mehr als Reaktion auf unsere Lebensumstände lesen, sondern als fest geschriebene Eigenschaft unserer Persönlichkeit. Wenn „Ich bin introvertiert“ zu einer Entschuldigung für das Vermeiden gewisser sozialer Interaktion wird und manchmal auch zu einer Abkürzung für Dinge, die eigentlich mehr Aufmerksamkeit bräuchten. Wir sprechen über die psychologischen Ursprünge von Intro- und Extraversion, über die Rolle von Social Media, Persönlichkeitstests und Selbstdiagnosen, aber auch über eine gesellschaftliche Verschiebung: Weg von permanenter Verfügbarkeit, hin zu Rückzug, Abgrenzung und Ruhe – zumindest für manche. Denn Ruhe ist kein neutraler Zustand. Denn wann heißt "zu laut", "zu viel" nur nicht "nach unseren Regeln"?

18.01. um 10 Uhr. Melde dich hier kostenfrei zum Webinar "Liebe ohne Angst - Werde ein sicherer Bindungstyp" an. Hier klicken 30 Sekunden Zusammenfassung Der schmerzhafte Tanz: Ängstlich gebundene Menschen suchen Nähe, um sich sicher zu fühlen – vermeidend gebundene brauchen Distanz für dasselbe Gefühl. Beide wollen Liebe und Sicherheit, aber ihre Strategien sind exakt gegensätzlich, was sie in einen Teufelskreis aus Annäherung und Rückzug zieht. Die Wurzeln liegen in der Kindheit: Ängstliche Bindung entsteht durch inkonsistente Zuwendung („Liebe ist da, aber nicht verlässlich"), vermeidende Bindung durch emotionale Nichtverfügbarkeit oder überbetonte Unabhängigkeit („Nähe bedeutet Schmerz, ich muss allein klarkommen"). Frauen tendieren statistisch eher zu ängstlicher, Männer zu vermeidender Bindung: Eine Meta-Analyse mit über 66.000 Teilnehmern (Del Giudice, 2011) bestätigt diesen Trend – geformt durch Biologie UND Sozialisation. Das erklärt, warum „sie will reden, er macht zu" so häufig vorkommt. Die Angst erzeugt, was sie fürchtet: Studien zeigen, dass ängstlich gebundene Menschen beim Dating bedürftiger wirken und dadurch weniger Erfolg haben – eine Self-fulfilling Prophecy. Die Angst vor Ablehnung führt zu Verhalten, das Ablehnung provoziert. Heilung ist möglich, aber braucht Bewusstheit: Beide müssen das Muster erkennen und benennen, aus der Verletzlichkeit statt aus der Reaktion kommunizieren, sich selbst regulieren lernen – und oft professionelle Unterstützung holen, um die tiefen Nervensystem-Prägungen zu verändern.

Es war ein Frontalangriff auf die deutsche Coronapolitik: Am Wochenende erhob Robert F. Kennedy in einer Videobotschaft weitreichende Vorwürfe gegen Deutschland. „Was in Deutschland gerade passiert, erfordert eine klare, öffentliche Reaktion“, sagte der US-Gesundheitsminister. Im Zentrum seiner Kritik: Die strafrechtliche Verfolgung von Ärzten und Patienten aufgrund von Attesten zur Maskenbefreiung und vor der Coronaimpfung.Weiterlesen
Donald Trumps Start ins neue Jahr: Erst der US-Showdown in Caracas und dann geht's gleich mit Grönland weiter? Gab es zwischen Washington und Moskau eventuell eine Absprache, dass jeder in seiner Hemisphäre nach Belieben schalten kann? Mit diesen Fragen gehen Markus Lanz und Richard David Precht in diese Folge. Precht erinnert daran, dass 1989 nach dem gleichen Muster Panamas Diktator Noriega von den USA gestürzt wurde. Auch damals war die Kritik aus dem Westen verhalten. Dabei ist gerade heute das Völkerrecht so essentiell wichtig, besonders für uns in Europa. Warum aber fällt die Reaktion der Bundesregierung dann wieder so kleinlaut aus? Wir haben gerade wenig zu gewinnen, aber viel zu verlieren, meint Markus Lanz. Fällt die Welt unter die Räuber?
Machtpolitik, Militäraktionen, Ölinteressen: In der ersten Folge von „Amerika-Effekt“ geht es nach Lateinamerika. US-Korrespondentin Stefanie Bolzen spricht mit WELT-Reporter Steffen Schwarzkopf, der an der Grenze zu Venezuela ist, über die aktuelle Lage, die Reaktion der Bevölkerung und das neue Machtgefüge in Caracas. Außerdem analysiert sie gemeinsam mit WELT-Lateinamerika-Korrespondent Tobias Käufer den Einfluss von Donald Trump auf Lateinamerika insgesamt. Redaktion: Antonia Beckermann, Stefanie Bolzen, Wim Orth Produktion: Sermet Agartan „Amerika-Effekt – Donald Trump und die neue Weltordnung“ nimmt jede Woche unter die Lupe, wie die USA – und vor allem Donald Trump – die globale Politik neu vermessen. WELT-USA-Korrespondentin Stefanie Bolzen spricht mit den WELT-Redakteuren Antonia Beckermann und Wim Orth sowie internationalen Korrespondenten über Machtverschiebungen, Allianzen und Konflikte. Ob harte Handelspolitik und neue Zölle, der veränderte Umgang mit NATO-Partnern oder der Druck auf internationale Institutionen – der Podcast zeigt, wie Trumps Kurs bereits konkrete Folgen für Europa, China und den Nahen Osten hat. Analytisch, nah dran und verständlich erklärt, ordnet „Der Amerika-Effekt“ das tägliche Washington-Rauschen ein und macht klar, warum Entscheidungen im Weißen Haus die Welt weit über die USA hinaus verändern.

Breakfast Cereal: A Global History (Reaktion, 2023) by Dr. Kathryn Dolan presents the long, distinguished and surprising history of breakfast cereal. Simple, healthy and comforting, breakfast cereals are a perennially popular way to start the day around the world. They have a long, distinguished and surprising history – around 10,000 years ago, with the advent of agriculture, people began breaking their fast with porridges made from wheat, rice, corn and other grains. It was only in the second half of the nineteenth century, however, in the United States, that a series of entrepreneurs and food reformers created the breakfast cereals we recognize today: Kellogg's Corn Flakes, Cheerios and Quaker Oats, among others. In this global, entertaining and well-illustrated account, Dr. Dolan explores the history of breakfast cereals, including many historical and modern recipes that the reader can try at home. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

✨ Neues Ich erschaffen Shownotes In dieser Episode von TomsTalkTime.com dreht sich alles um die Frage, wie du dir Schritt für Schritt dein neues Ich erschaffen kannst – und warum genau das die Grundlage für jedes Wachstum im Business ist. Wir sprechen darüber, wie deine Identität entsteht, warum dein altes Ich deine heutigen Ergebnisse bestimmt und weshalb echte Veränderung immer im Kopf beginnt. Tom zeigt ruhig, klar und ohne Druck, wie du innere Muster erkennst, die nicht mehr zu dir passen, und wie du bewusst ein neues Selbstbild formst, das zu dem Unternehmer wird, der du sein möchtest. Im ersten Teil geht es darum, dass dein altes Ich wie ein Betriebssystem im Hintergrund arbeitet. Es entscheidet, welche Chancen du wahrnimmst, wie mutig du handelst und wie du mit Rückschlägen umgehst. Wenn du immer wieder dieselben Ergebnisse bekommst, obwohl du Dinge verändern willst, liegt das oft an der alten Identität. Und erst wenn du dir ein neues Ich erschaffen möchtest, beginnt dieser Mechanismus sichtbar zu werden. Anschließend erklärt Tom, wie Identität entsteht – nämlich nicht durch einen einzelnen Moment, sondern durch viele kleine Wiederholungen. Der Satz „Ich bin jemand, der …" wird zum Dreh- und Angelpunkt. So entsteht ein Selbstbild, das nicht laut oder dramatisch sein muss, sondern still und kraftvoll. Identität ist eine Entscheidung, die man immer wieder trifft. Und genau das öffnet den Weg zur inneren Transformation. Ein weiterer zentraler Punkt ist der Moment, in dem du spürst, dass ein altes Muster nicht mehr zu dir passt. Dieses Gefühl ist oft der erste Hinweis, dass du gewachsen bist. Wenn du plötzlich merkst: „Das bin ich eigentlich gar nicht mehr", dann beginnt der Prozess bewusst zu werden. Dieser Moment ist nicht unbequem – er ist ein Zeichen. Ein Hinweis darauf, dass es Zeit ist, dir dein neues Ich zu erschaffen und alte Muster loszulassen. Im zweiten Teil der Episode geht Tom darauf ein, warum das Gehirn Veränderung zuerst bekämpft. Nicht, weil die Veränderung falsch ist, sondern weil sie unbekannt ist. Das Gehirn liebt Energieeffizienz. Neues Denken braucht Energie. Erst fühlt es sich ungewohnt an, später normal und schließlich selbstverständlich. Wer versteht, dass dieser Widerstand Teil des natürlichen Prozesses ist, bleibt deutlich entspannter im Wandel. Danach geht es darum, wie du innere Zweifel erkennst, bevor sie dich bremsen. Zweifel sind keine Feinde – sie sind Erinnerungen des alten Ichs, das dich schützen will. Wenn du lernst, diese Gedanken zu bemerken, ohne ihnen zu folgen, öffnet sich ein Raum für Entscheidungen, die zu deinem neuen Ich passen. Zum Abschluss erklärt Tom, wie ein neues Selbstbild wirklich stabil wird: nicht durch riesige Veränderungen, sondern durch kleine Handlungen, die zu deiner neuen Identität passen. Ein neuer Satz. Eine kleine Entscheidung. Ein ruhiger Schritt. Genau das macht Transformation nachhaltig und real.
Alle Thyng Hath Tyme: Time and Medieval Life (Reaktion, 2023) recreates medieval people's experience of time: as continuous and discontinuous, linear and cyclical, embracing Creation and Judgement, shrinking to ‘atoms' or ‘droplets' and extending to the silent spaces of eternity. They might measure time by natural phenomena such as sunrise and sunset, the motion of the stars or the progress of the seasons, even as the late medieval invention of the mechanical clock was making time-reckoning more precise. Negotiating these mixed and competing systems, medieval people gained a nuanced and expansive sense of time that rewards attention today. Gillian Adler is Associate Professor of Literature and Esther Raushenbush Chair in Humanities at Sarah Lawrence College in New York. She is the author of Chaucer and the Ethics of Time (2022) Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature.

How the Country House Became English (Reaktion, 2023) by Dr. Stephanie Barczewski is an exploration of the evolution of the quintessentially English country house. Country houses have come to be regarded as quintessentially English, not only in terms of their architectural style but because they appear to embody national values of continuity and insularity. The histories of country houses and England, however, have featured episodes of violence and disruption, so how did country houses come to represent one version of English history, when in reality they reflect its full range of contradictions and complexities? This book explores the evolution of the country house, beginning with the violent impact of the Reformation and Civil War and showing how the political events of the eighteenth century, which culminated in the reaction against the French Revolution, led to country houses being recast as symbols of England's political stability. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Herzlich willkommen zu Ihrem morgendlichen Newsletter! Düstere Aussichten für Kiew: US-Vize Vance erwartet den Verlust des Donbass, während Friedensgespräche scheitern. Ein Desaster meldet Frankreich: Das Insekten-Start-up Ynsect ist trotz Millionen-Förderung insolvent. Im Finanzkrieg zwischen der EU und Russland herrscht ein bisher kaum beachtetes Patt: Moskau blockierte als Reaktion auf die EU bereits 2022 ebenfalls westliche Milliarden.
Die Behörden von Gemeinden an der Schweizer Grenze sind immer häufiger mit gefälschten Ausweisen konfrontiert. Doch die Fälschungen zu erkennen ist schwierig und die systematische Prüfung eine Herausforderung. Umfragen des Bundes, die Radio SRF vorliegen, zeigen nun das ganze Ausmass des Problems. Weitere Themen: Donald Trump hat den Gouverneur von Louisiana, Jeff Landry, am Sonntag zum neuen «Sondergesandten» für Grönland ernannt. Landrys unmittelbare Reaktion auf die Ernennung hat in Dänemark und Grönland grosse Empörung ausgelöst. Muss sich Grönland nun ernsthaft Sorgen machen? Nach dem Attentat an Sydneys Bondi Beach wird immer deutlicher, welch zentrale Rolle die Terror-Miliz IS gespielt hat. Sie hat zwar als Organisation und auch als strukturiertes Netzwerk enorm an Bedeutung verloren, doch die Ideologie des IS bleibt brandgefährlich.

Die Ukraine erhält in den nächsten zwei Jahren ein zinsloses Darlehen im Umfang von 90 Milliarden Euro. Darauf haben sich die Staats- und Regierungsspitzen der EU in der Nacht geeinigt. Weitere Themen: Das Parlament will Nachtzüge nicht mit 10 Millionen Franken subventionieren. Das wurde in der Wintersession beschlossen, die heute zu Ende geht. Allerdings wird das Geld nicht eingespart, sondern kommt der Luftfahrbranche zugute. Australiens Regierung hat ein Rückkauf-Programm für Schusswaffen angekündigt. Damit sollen Waffen eingesammelt und zerstört werden. Es ist eine Reaktion auf den Anschlag in Sydney, bei dem am vergangenen Sonntag 16 Menschen getötet wurden.

A radical history of England, Contested Commons: A History of Protest and Public Space in England (Reaktion, 2025) by Dr. Katrina Navickas is a gripping overview of increasingly restrictive policing and legislation against protest in public spaces. It tells the long history of contests over Trafalgar Square, Hyde Park, Cable Street and Kinder Scout, as well as sites in towns and rural areas across the country. Dr. Navickas reveals how protesters claimed these spaces as their own commons, resisting their continuing enclosure and exclusion by social and political elites. She investigates famous and less well-known demonstrations and protest marches, from early democracy, trade union movements and the Suffragettes to anti-fascist, Black rights and environmental campaigners in more recent times. Contested Commons offers positive as well as troubling lessons on how we protect the right to protest. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

For centuries, sailors crossing the Atlantic believed they were not alone – haunted by ghost ships, watched by mermaids, and stalked by sea monsters. Historian Karl Bell talks to Jon Bauckham about the stories that dominated the maritime imagination, and what role these fishy tales might play in our understanding of the ocean today.

Taylor McCall's The Art of Anatomy in Medieval Europe (Reaktion, 2023) is the first history of medieval European anatomical images. Richly illustrated, The Art of Anatomy in Medieval Europe explores the many ways in which medieval surgeons, doctors, monks, and artists understood and depicted human anatomy. Taylor McCall refutes the common misconception that Renaissance artists and anatomists such as Leonardo da Vinci and Andreas Vesalius were the fathers of anatomy who performed the first human dissections. On the contrary, she argues that these Renaissance figures drew upon centuries of visual and written tradition in their works.

Ein Forscherteam aus Wien hat Schwachstellen im Messengerdienst WhatsApp aufgedeckt, die es ermöglichten, die Daten von Milliarden Nutzern einzusehen. Die Forscher kritisieren Sicherheitslücken, fehlende Schutzmechanismen und eine verzögerte Reaktion des Meta-Konzerns.
Zucht nach Schönheitsidealen verursacht Tierleid: Atemnot und körperliche Beschwerden. Das Problem: Hunde werden immer kleiner gezüchtet, Katzen immer exotischer. Social Media befeuert den Trend. «Einstein» zeigt, wie Forschung gegensteuert und warum Tierwohl wichtiger ist als ein Statussymbol. Katze unter der Dusche – Vorbereitung auf die Show Vor Katzenausstellungen geht es für Zucht-Katzen oft unter die Dusche – schamponieren und föhnen inklusive. Ein ungewohnter Anblick, doch die Reaktion der Tiere ist erstaunlich. Katzenausstellungen haben eine ganz eigene Szene: Man vergleicht sich und bewertet Zuchtlinien. Während Maine Coons beliebt sind, sind gesundheitlich belastete Rassen wie Nacktkatzen und Perser in der Schweiz an Ausstellungen mittlerweile verboten. Erziehung statt Vorurteil Kampfhunde sind in der Schweiz umstritten und sorgen regelmässig für Schlagzeilen. Moderator Tobias Müller begleitet Baileys Besitzer, die trotz Beschimpfungen alles für ihre Erziehung tun. Bailey liebt Menschen, doch bei Hundebegegnungen fehlt ihr die Kontrolle. Freundliches Verhalten gegenüber Hunden und das Zügeln ihrer Energie muss sie erst lernen. Gelingt so ein friedliches Miteinander? Das Leiden der Modehunde Runde Köpfe, Kulleraugen, Stupsnase – Modehunde wie Mops, Bulldogge oder Pomeranians sind beliebt, leiden aber oft unter schweren gesundheitlichen Problemen. Die Kleintierklinik der Universität Bern will das ändern: Mit Studien und Dialog mit Zuchtverbänden sollen die Zuchtstandards verbessert und das Tierwohl gestärkt werden. Ziel ist es, dass Schönheit nicht länger auf Kosten der Gesundheit geht. Zwischen Wildtier und Stubentiger Hybridkatzen wie Bengalen oder Savannahs faszinieren mit ihrem exotischen Aussehen – doch die Kreuzung von Wild- und Hauskatzen bringt oft gravierende Probleme mit sich. Verhaltensstörungen, Stress und gesundheitliche Beschwerden sind keine Seltenheit.
