In the nineties, Habermas redirected his political writings to the post-national constellation (global and European) and the possibilities of a society politically integrated through transnational democracy (or post-national democracy). This thematic reorientation took place on two fronts. The first one is the global transnational democracy, which includes the impacts of the economic globalization on national democracies, as well the proposal for a political Constitution for a pluralistic world society, based on a constitutionalization of international law. The second one is the European transnational democracy, which includes the redefinition of the political profile of European welfare state for an economic liberal profile, as well the paradox of democratic technocracy operated by European institutions and the proposal to overcome the decoupled technocratic policy model. This paper will address only this last topic, describing the reasons of the democratic deficit and the consequent delay of European political Union. Despite numerous reforms, the technocratic policies have not eliminated the discrepancy between centralization and democratization, and mistakenly indicate another direction further reinforcing the problem of European undemocratic institutions. In contrast, Habermas argues that the democratic deficit could only be overcome replacing the technocratic approach by a deeper democratization of European institutions.
Der Club-Nomade
(2015)
Er gilt als Urgestein unter Frankfurts Partymachern: Hans Romanov, übrigens ein Alumnus der Goethe-Uni, hat schon viele Clubs und Veranstaltungen in Frankfurt gemacht: Dazu zählen der Ostklub, das Rotary in Offenbach, aber auch der Yachtclub am Main. Der gebürtige Berliner arbeitet nebenbei als Ruderlehrer. Am 25. Januar 2016 ist er zu Gast bei der Frankfurter Bürgeruni.
Flüchtlinge, Schuldenkrise, Diskriminierung. Drei hochaktuelle, weltumspannende Themen, die eines verbindet: die Frage nach Gerechtigkeit. An der Goethe-Universität denkt die Forschergruppe »Justitia Amplificata: Erweiterte Gerechtigkeit – konkret und global« über Gerechtigkeitstheorien nach. Die Gruppe untersucht Theorien der Gerechtigkeit und ihre praktischen Implikationen. Die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft fördert die Arbeit der interdisziplinärangelegten Kolleg- Forschergruppe. Diese vernetzt Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler unterschiedlicher Karrierestufen.

2015 wurde das Grabungshaus der Abteilung Vorderasiatische Archäologie an der Goethe-Universität in Tell-Chuera, im Nordosten Syriens nur wenige Kilometer von der Grenze zur Türkei gelegen, zum großen Teil zerstört. Das Gebäude wurde 15 Jahre lang von Forschern und Studierenden der Uni im Rahmen eines Projektes zur frühen Urbanisation in Mesopotamien genutzt.
This book explores the emergent character of social orders in Sudan and South Sudan. It provides vivid insights into multitudes of ordering practices and their complex negotiation. Recurring patterns of exclusion and ongoing struggles to reconfigure disadvantaged positions are investigated as are shifting borders, changing alliances and relationships with land and language. The book takes a careful and close look at institutional arrangements that shape everyday life in the Sudans, probing how social forms have persisted or changed. It proposes reading the post-colonial history of the Sudans as a continuous struggle to find institutional orders valid for all citizens. The separation of Sudan and South Sudan in 2011 has not solved this dilemma. Exclusionary and exploitative practices endure and inhibit the rule of law, distributive justice, political participation and functioning infrastructure. Analyses of historical records and recent ethnographic data assembled here show that orders do not result directly from intended courses of action, planning and orchestration but from contingently emerging patterns. The studies included look beyond dominant elites caught in violent fights for powers, cycles of civil war and fragile peace agreements to explore a broad range of social formations, some of which may have the potential to glue people and things together in peaceful co-existence, while others give way to new violence.
El artículo presenta cómo el filósofo alemán Theodor W. Adorno concibe el estado social de la música de la primera mitad del siglo XX. Para ello recurro a
una serie de conceptos utilizados por el autor y cuyas raíces están en el pensamiento filosófico de la modernidad. Con gran influencia de Walter Benjamin, cada concepto en Adorno es una constelación, es decir, una idea que debe ser desarrollada y que al relacionarse con otros conceptos se llega a una interpretación más abarcadora del problema a considerarse. Así pues, divido el escrito en dos partes: uno dedicado al análisis de la ideología y el otro al de reificación. Cada capítulo así mismo está dividido en distintos apartados, con el ánimo de dar una visión más amplia de cómo Adorno entendió el problema de la experiencia musical para al final dar cuenta de la importancia del pensamiento estético de Adorno al compararlo con otros autores que reflexionaron sobre el mismo tema.
In my paper, I intend firmly to criticize Taubes' interpretation of Benjamin's Theology as a modern form of Gnosticism (Benjamin as a modern Marcionit). In a positive way, I sustain rather the thesis that Benjamin's Messianism is in close connection with his conception of reason (“the sharpened axe of reason”) and, in particularly, with the paradoxical unity of Mysticism and Enlightenment, which, according to the famous definition of Adorno, distinguishes his thought. As a radically anti-magical and anti-mythical conception of the historical time, Benjamin's Messianism has to be considered as an original synthesis between motifs of the mystical tradition of the Jewish Kabbalah and motifs belonging to the rationalist tradition of the Jewish philosophy. Moving from Cohen's standpoint of a continuity between Maimonides and Kant, I consider therefore the affinity between his messianic conception of history and that of Benjamin. Both, Benjamin and Cohen, share, together with the reference to the a priori of the idea of justice, the reference to the Kantian connection between rationality and hope. Hence originates the non-eschatological Messianism of both. Motives of difference between Cohen and Benjamin’s messianic idea are to be found, conversely, in their different way to consider the idea of "the infinite task" and of its infinite fulfillment in the context of the historical time. Unlike the fundamentally ethical interpretation that Cohen gives of this relationship, Benjamin understands it ontologically in a monadological sense. This explains the constitutive relationship that exists, in Benjamin's philosophy, between Origin, Fragment and Revelation. In the light of this connection, Benjamin's messianic understanding of the historical time exceeds the Scholemian alternative between a restorative and a utopian conception of Messianism. Consequently, the Krausian motto “Ursprung ist das Ziel” (“The Origin is the Goal”) displays its truth in the idea of the messianic fragment or spark.
