Wer gehört zu uns?


Book Description

Über den Verfall jahrzehntealter Paradigmen im Zeichen von Migration und Populismus. In vielen Ländern der Welt wird die Idee des Wohlfahrtsstaates derzeit infrage gestellt, während das Thema Flucht und Migration dem Rechtspopulismus rasanten Auftrieb verschafft. Jahrzehntelang wirkmächtige Paradigmen wie das der gesellschaftlichen Solidarität und der globalen Gerechtigkeit verlieren an Akzeptanz, während die Furcht vor "unkontrollierter Einwanderung" das Vertrauen in das Funktionieren des Wohlfahrtsstaates untergräbt. Antworten auf die Frage, wer unter welchen Bedingungen zu "uns" gehört und an wohlfahrtsstaatlichen Leistungen teilhaben darf, erleben eine dramatische Verschiebung. David Abraham untersucht das Wechselverhältnis von Einwanderung, Integration und Solidarität im kapitalistisch geprägten Westen des 20. und 21. Jahrhunderts. Am Beispiel von Deutschland, den USA und Israel zeigt der Jurist und Historiker, warum "soft on the inside, hard on the outside", die einst für die Etablierung stabiler Wohlfahrtsstaaten grundlegende Formel, in Zukunft nicht mehr tragfähig sein wird. Ergänzung und Vertiefung finden diese Einsichten in einem lebensgeschichtlichen Interview über Geschichte und Herkunft, über Recht und Populismus, aber auch über Abrahams wechselhafte wissenschaftliche Laufbahn.







Heidegger’s Metahistory of Philosophy: Amor Fati, Being and Truth


Book Description

Martin Heidegger's fame and influence are based, for the most part, on his first work, Being and Time. That this was to have been the first half of a larger two-volume project, the second half of which was never completed, is well known. That Heidegger's subsequent writings have been continuous developments of that project, in some sense, is generally acknowledged, although there is considerable disagreement concerning the manner in which his later works stand related to Being and Time. Heidegger scholars are deeply divided over that question. Some maintain that there is a sharp thematic cleavage in Heidegger's thought, so that the later works either refute or, at best, abandon the earlier themes. Others maintain that even to speak of a shift or a "reversal" in Heidegger's thinking is mistaken and argue, in conse quence, that his thinking develops entirely consistently. Lastly, there are those who admit a shift in emphasis and themes in his works but introduce a principle of complementarity - the shift is said to repre sent a logical development of his thi.nking. Too often the groups re semble armed camps.
