Abstract

Friedrich Hielscher (1902-1990) ist eine der widersprüchlichsten Gestalten der deutschen Geistesgeschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts: Freikorpskämpfer und Agitator, Schriftsteller und Mystiker, Gegner der Nationalsozialisten, Gründer einer heidnischen Kirche, Freund und Gesprächspartner von Theodor Heuß, Ernst Jünger, Alfred Kantorowicz und Martin Buber. Hielscher zählte in der Weimarer Republik zu den führenden nationalrevolutionären Publizisten und entwickelte ein mystisches, nicht völkisch-rassistisches Verständnis von Deutschtum. Als Kritiker des Nationalsozialismus versuchte er eine Widerstandsgruppe aufzubauen. In den 1960er Jahren zunächst als magischer Guru des Dritten Reichs verklärt, verschwand Hielscher aus dem öffentlichen Bewusstsein und widmete sich seiner weitgehend geheimen »Unabhängigen Freikirche«, deren Glaubensinhalte auf die germanische Mythologie Bezug nahmen. Mit seiner Kapitalismus-Kritik und Fortschrittsskepsis steht Hielscher auch im Zusammenhang mit Ursprüngen der Alternativbewegung. Der Band enthält einen Bildteil mit teils noch nie publizierten Fotografien Hielschers.

Abstract

Since its emergence at the end of the seventeenth century, industrial capitalism as a specific form of social organisation has set recurrent challenges to its own persistence, and until today, it has proved to be successful to develop new ways of accumulation based on its capacity of adaptation. Is this process of transition now accelerating or reaching an end point? This book is a critical exploration of capitalism in transition, bringing together cutting edge, world renowned scholars who reflect from different disciplinary points of view. This collection engages with the primarily Western themes of welfare capitalism and social fragmentation. Structured over three parts, the book analyses; the transformations of welfare societies and capitalism with a focus on South European welfare states and their (in)capacity to tackle poverty; the transformation of work and migration with a special attention to informality and the question of social rights; and the transformation of cities.This book is relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 1, No poverty.

Abstract

Elinor Ostrom was both a groundbreaking thinker and one of the foremost economists of our age. The first and only woman to win the Nobel Prize for Economics, her revolutionary theorizing of the commons opened the way for non-capitalist economic alternatives on a massive scale. And yet, astonishingly, most modern radicals know little about her. This book fixes that injustice, revealing the indispensability of her work on green politics, alternative economics, and radical democracy.--Publisher's description.

Abstract

"Where has capitalism gone wrong? Why are advanced capitalist economies so sick and why do conventional policy solutions, such as reduced taxes and increased money supply, produce only wider income disparity and inequality? We now live in a new world in which we enjoy the highest living standard in history, acquiring ever more goods and services as necessary luxuries. Yet current policies only serve to expand public debt and exacerbate socio-economic inequality. In Too much stuff, Yamamura upends conventional capitalist wisdom to provide a new approach. He suggests the only way for capitalism and democracy to thrive is to increase investment to meet societal needs such as improving social safety nets, infrastructure, and better education and health care for all, but this means raising taxes. Both solutions-orientated and accessibly written, this book argues that this will help reduce the growing wealth gap which threatens global democracy. With fascinating examples from the US, Japan and Germany, as well as convincing evidence from across the Western world, this bold book challenges the economic orthodoxy and offers practical steps forward that we can all support"--Publisher's website.
