Humanities & Social SciencesJanuary 2021Karl Polanyi and twenty-first-century capitalism
by Radhika Desai, Kari Polanyi Levitt
As far right movements, social disintegration and international conflict emerge from the decay of the neoliberal order, Karl Polanyi's warnings against the unbridled domination of markets, is ever more relevant. The essays in Karl Polanyi for the 21st Century extend the boundaries of our understanding of Polanyi's life and work. They will interest Polanyi scholars and all interested in socialism and our future after neoliberalism. One asks whether, following Keynes and Hayek, Polanyi's ideas will shape the twenty-first century. Some clarify, for the meaning of money as a fictitious commodity. Others resolve difficulties in understanding the building blocks of Polanyi's thought: fictitious commodities, the double movement, the United States' exceptional development, the reality of society, and socialism as freedom in a complex society. And yes others explore how Polanyi sheds light on income inequality, world systems theory, comparative political economy.

Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2006Germany, pacifism and peace enforcement
by Anja Dalgaard-Nielsen, Emil Kirchner, Thomas Christiansen
Germany, pacifism and peace enforcement is about the transformation of Germany's security and defence policy in the time between the 1991 Gulf War and the 2003 war against Iraq. The book traces and explains the reaction of Europe's biggest and potentially most powerful country to the ethnic wars of the 1990s, the emergence of large-scale terrorism, and the new US emphasis on pre-emptive strikes. Based on an analysis of Germany's strategic culture it portrays Germany as a security actor and indicates the conditions and limits of the new German willingness to participate in international military crisis management that developed over the 1990s. It debates the implications of Germany's transformation for Germany's partners and neighbours and explains why Germany said 'yes' to the war in Afghanistan, but 'no' to the Iraq War. ;

July 2013Sprachengerechtigkeit
für Europa und die Welt
by Michael Adrian, Nikolaus Gramm, Philippe Van Parijs
»Do you speak English?« Nicht nur in Europa erhält man als Antwort darauf immer häufiger ein »Yes«. Und in der Tat: Quasi unter der Hand scheint sich Englisch zu einer neuen »lingua franca« zu entwickeln, wie auch empirische Daten belegen. Aber ist das gerecht? Oder vielmehr ein Menetekel der »Amerikanisierung« der Welt, respektlos und »unfair« – der Anfang vom Ende der kulturellen Vielfalt, die gerade Europa so besonders macht? Philippe Van Parijs vertritt in seinem Buch die provokante These, dass wir diese Entwicklung nicht nur begrüßen, sondern auch aktiv beschleunigen sollten. Eine gemeinsame Sprache, so seine Überzeugung, ermögliche mehr Bürgern die Teilhabe an politischen und wirtschaftlichen Prozessen und sei eine effektive Waffe im Kampf um mehr Gerechtigkeit. Seine Devise lautet daher: »Go English!« Aber ist das wirklich gerecht? Schließlich wären englische Muttersprachler im Vorteil, und es spricht viel dafür, die Sprachenvielfalt gerade aus Gründen der Gerechtigkeit zu schützen. Van Parijs stellt sich diesen und weiteren Einwänden in gehaltvoller Auseinandersetzung mit den maßgeblichen Paradigmen der Gerechtigkeitstheorie und diskutiert dann praktische Maßnahmen zur Durchsetzung der Sprachengerechtigkeit – etwa eine Sprachsteuer für anglophone Länder oder ein Verbot der Synchronisierung englischsprachiger Filme. »Sprachengerechtigkeit für Europa und die Welt« ist kein Buch gegen die Vielfalt der Sprachen und Kulturen. Aber es behauptet, dass Sprachenvielfalt kein Wert an sich ist, anders als Gerechtigkeit. Ein außergewöhnlicher Beitrag zur Debatte um die Zukunft Europas.
