  • Solidarische Stadt: Soziale Kämpfe und ein Masterplan gegen Armut

    Solidarische Stadt: Soziale Kämpfe und ein Masterplan gegen Armut
    Jul 29 2024
    In dieser Folge spricht Isette Schuhmacher mit Katja Kipping, der ehemaligen Berliner Senatorin für Integration, Arbeit und Soziales, dem Stadtforscher und Aktivisten Andrej Holm und Susanne Hinneberg, die für querstadtein e.V. Stadtrundgänge zum Thema Obdachlosigkeit anbietet, über das Thema „Solidarische Stadt: Soziale Kämpfe und ein Masterplan gegen Armut“. Armut meint dabei nicht nur das Leben am Existenzminimum. Sie betrifft die gesellschaftliche Teilhabe und bedeutet den Ausschluss von den Qualitäten und Infrastrukturen der Stadt. Die augenscheinlichste Form von Armut ist Obdach- und Wohnungslosigkeit, die Berlin bis 2030 mit einem „Masterplan“ abschaffen will. Wir diskutieren in dieser Folge, was dieser Masterplan vorsieht, was es braucht um Obdachlosigkeit abzuschaffen und welche strukturellen Hindernisse einem solidarischen Miteinander im Wege stehen.

  • „A Precarious Happiness“ – Peter E. Gordon on the Sources of Normativity in Adorno

    „A Precarious Happiness“ – Peter E. Gordon on the Sources of Normativity in Adorno
    Jun 9 2024
    In this episode, Marvin Ester interviews Peter E. Gordon about his new book, 'Precarious Happiness: Adorno and the Sources of Normativity.' Gordon is the Amabel B. James Professor of History and a faculty affiliate in the Departments of Germanic Languages and Literatures, Government, and Philosophy at Harvard University. In 'Precarious Happiness,' Gordon argues that Theodor W. Adorno's social critique—contrary to what is often assumed—is, in all its ruthlessness, still grounded in the however fragile experience of happiness that hints at an unfulfilled potential for human flourishing. Peter E. Gordon, A Precarious Happiness: Adorno and the Sources of Normativity, The University of Chicago Press, 320 pages, 2023. Peter E. Gordon, Prekäres Glück: Adorno und die Quellen der Normativität, 470 pages, Suhrkamp, 2023.

This is so good. It is such a hard thing to explain, how all of these extremely important aspect of life tie together - but when people don't have this understanding, that this is the situation, there is then really no way they can understand what we are talking about... and this explains it so well. I'm going to emulate this starting point to bring people into understanding.

This is it. They tie everything together so well.
