For the first time, the story of Leonida's wife, the hero of Thermopilai, recreated according to Herodotus's texts. This is a very strong woman, educated, emancipated. She lives in Sparta 2500 years ago and fights for women's rights. She lives during the wars between Greeks and Persians and she'll lose her husband in the war, but her bravery and love for the homeland will always remain.

The market is growing for homeopathic remedies, diets and all kinds of miracle cures. Although homeopathic practitioners in Germany are largely unregulated, their supporters are growing in number. An industry has sprung up around alternative medicine that draws on the mistrust towards the pharmaceutical industry, medicine and the media. Many products are as harmless as they are ineffective – but some are dangerous or even lethal. Beate Frenkel investigates: where is the source of this boom? What role do conspiracy theories play as well as the influence of the internet? Why do politicians and the German Medical Association take so few preventive steps? Powerful examples are backed up with statements from doctors, patients and alternative medicine practitioners.

Zygmunt Bauman entwirft das Bild einer Moderne, die sich durch exterritorial und mobil gewordene Machtstrukturen auszeichnet. Das Individuum ist zwar in die Freiheit entlassen, muß das soziale Gewebe jedoch in Heimarbeit selbst herstellen. Es gibt kein Schaltzentrum der Macht mehr, die Strukturen sind flüchtig, die Freiheit beliebig. In seiner mitreißenden Analyse wagt Zygmunt Bauman einen Ausblick auf eine Zeit nach der Zweiten Moderne; die Risikogesellschaft mit ihren flexiblen Menschen läuft auf eine flüchtige Moderne zu, in der Revolutionen, die ja etwas Bestehendes auflösen sollen, keinen Ansatzpunkt mehr haben.
