Теорія напівосвіти Адорно була вперше представлена як доповідь на З’їзді німецьких соціологів (1959). В ній розглядаються тенденції, що відбуваються у сучасній освіті і обумовлюють її кризу, яка загострюється у соціокультурних контекстах пізнього капіталізму. Теорія напівосвіти переосмислює і актуалізує концептуалізації освіти та культури у німецькій класичній філософії, марксизмі і фройдизмі, розкриваючи діалектику просвітництва через діагностику спотворень і деформацій освіти в опціях відчуженого духа, що криє у собі небезпеку ліквідації культури, яка перетворюється на масову, і руйнації людського буття через інструменталізацію свідомості та примусову адаптацію. Напівосвіта паразитує на ідеї освіти, яка є внутрішньо суперечливою через поєднання настанов на автономію та адаптацію. Подолання цієї суперечності можливе через негативну діалектику, яка комплементарно поєднує критику суспільства і критику освіти, відкриваючи для них нові горизонти
У статті розглядаються соціокультурні контексти створення і рецепції теорії напівосвіти Т. Адорно на основі широкого застосування біографічного методу, що дозволило розкрити інтенціональність цієї теорії крізь призму спогадів учнів і колег. Запропоновано аргументативне підкріплення тези Ю. Габермаса про внутрішню роздвоєність теоретизування Адорно. Аналізуються інтерпретаційні схеми поняття Bildung (освіта, культура, формування) у німецькому ідеалізмі, де домінує семантика формування, а патології цього процесу відповідно концептуалізуються як деформації та розпад форм у різноманітніх маніфестаціях напівосвіти. Теорія напівосвіти є передусім діагностикою стану сучасних розвинутих суспільств, де засобами масової культури постійно продукуються такі патології, як відчуження і стани масового психозу. Цьому сприяє також тенденція рефеодалізації, яка, в свою чергу, виступає також симптоматикою духовної кризи постсучасності. Одним з проявів цієї кризи є радикальний антипод освіти - антиосвіта, яка є наслідком відмови сучасних навчальних і виховних практик від гуманістичної ідеї освіти. Для виходу із стану кризи критичної рефлексії потребують не тільки напівосвіта і антиосвіта, а й сама ідея освіти.
Er kam als junger Syrer Anfang der 60er Jahre nach Frankfurt. Am Studienkolleg der Goethe-Universität lernte er Deutsch, später dann studierte er bei Theodor W. Adorno und Iring Fetscher politische Philosophie. Mit 28 wurde Bassam Tibi Professor für Politikwissenschaft an der Universität Göttingen. Mittlerweile ist er emeritiert, aber seine Expertise ist nicht nur beim Thema Islam immer noch gefragt. Anfang Dezember diskutierte Tibi auf Einladung des Studienkollegs mit Geflüchteten des Academic Welcome Program. Und der Besuch des Adorno-Denkmals auf dem Campus Westend war für den 72-Jährigen natürlich Ehrensache.
Rechtspopulistische Bewegungen machen sich zur Zeit in vielen westlichen Staaten zum Sprachrohr angeblich bisher unterdrückter Bevölkerungsgruppen und Meinungen. Die identitäre Bewegung entwickelt diesen Ansatz weiter zu einem Projekt der autoritären Staatlichkeit gegen Multikulturalismus, Islam und Einwanderung. Dabei verbindet sie ihre Kampagne für einen ethnisch geschlossen Nationalstaat mit der Kritik an der kapitalistischen Globalisierung. Mit einem Sprachduktus, der Politik emotionalisiert, wird durch «geistige Verschärfung» das Programm eines defensiven Ethnonationalismus entfaltet. Dieser beruft sich auf Traditionsbestandteile eines völkischen Antimodernismus und eine von dem russischen Philosophen Alexander Dugin entworfene eurasische Geopolitik.
Ein europäischer Keynesianismus als Grundlage für ein gesamteuropäisches Wirtschaftskonzept würde als offensive Gegenstrategie die Idee einer sozialstaatlichen Erneuerung propagieren können. Zudem sind Akteure aus der Zivilgesellschaft aufgefordert, gegen Fremdenfeindlichkeit und Orientierungsverlust aufklärerisch zu wirken.
Das Internet ist allgegenwärtig - so allgegenwärtig, dass es inzwischen in gewissen Kreisen en vogue ist, sich ab und an komplett vom Internet abzukapseln. Passend zur vorösterlichen Zeit könnte man von Internetfasten sprechen. Aber was passiert, wenn das Internet einfach komplett abgestellt wird, für alle? Was für uns primär eine akademische Fragestellung ist, ist in Kamerun, Indien, Pakistan und vielen anderen Ländern Realität. Diese Beispiele verdeutlichen nicht nur wie Internetabschaltung ein Instrument sozialer und politischer Kontrolle sind, sie zeigen auch ihre dramatischen Auswirkungen. Das Thema sollte uns auch hier interessieren...
When is a crisis a crisis?
(2017)
Far-right parties gained considerable support in many European countries in recent years. Austria comes within a whisker of becoming the first country in the history of the European Union to elect a far-right president, Horbert Hofer, the candidate from the Freedom Party. Similarly, in France, Marie Le Pen is expected to be Front National’s (FN) candidate in the 2017 presidential election and probably to make it to the second round of voting...
Much of today’s conflicts and challenges, globally and locally, can be in part attributed to or are influenced by the hegemony of Western over non-Western cultures and politics. Long-standing and still reproduced Western dominance and power are directed at the protection of own interests, thereby re-creating power imbalances, inequalities and practices of exclusion...
Prof. Brigitte Geißel und ihr Team von der Forschungsstelle Demokratische Innovationen an der Goethe-Universität beschäftigen sich mit der Krise der repräsentativen Demokratie, wie sie im Augenblick unter dem Eindruck der letzten Bundestagswahl verstärkt auch in der Öffentlichkeit diskutiert wird. „Wahlen und Parteienwettbewerb sind lediglich die Form, die wir heute am besten kennen; dieses institutionelle Set ist aber nicht der innerste Kern von Demokratie“, so das Team der Forschungsstelle in seinem folgenden Beitrag.
Warum werden Frauen Terroristinnen? Wider eine stereotype Betrachtung des weiblichen Terrorismus
(2017)
Punk-Band Frontfrau, Ex-Katholikin, Kosmetikverkäuferin – für die meisten klingt das nicht nach der Biographie einer der aktivsten Anhängerinnen des sogenannten Islamischen Staates (IS). Und doch: Bis Sally Jones jüngst bei einem US-Drohnenangriff ums Leben gekommen ist, war die Britin für mehr als vier Jahre das weibliche Gesicht des IS. Die Geschichte von Jones wirft eine grundlegende Frage auf: Wieso werden Frauen Terroristinnen? Ein Blick auf das breite Spektrum und die Geschichte des weiblichen Terrorismus zeigt, dass Terroristinnen weder neu noch selten, weder vor allem Opfer noch rein persönlich motiviert sind. Wenn an solchen Stereotypen festgehalten wird, steht dies nicht nur einer umfassenden Analyse der Gründe, sondern auch der Prävention von weiblichem Terrorismus im Wege.
Sally Jones Tod im Juni wurde erst vor Kurzem bekannt, und eine letztgültige Bestätigung steht noch aus – genauso wie die Antwort auf die Frage, ob der Drohnenangriff legal war, da angeblich auch ihr 12-jähriger Sohn getötet wurde. So wie Sally Jones möglicherweise posthum als erstes explizit weibliches Ziel eines solchen Angriffs Prominenz erlangen könnte, gibt ihre Person der regelmäßig wiederkehrenden öffentlichen wie wissenschaftlichen Diskussion über die Gründe für weiblichen Terrorismus neue Nahrung. In dieser Debatte sind Antworten auf die Frage, ob Frauen „auch“ Terroristinnen sein können, inzwischen zu einem Dickicht aus Stereotypen und Fantasien mutiert. Wird Religion – vulgo Islam – dieser Mischung hinzugefügt, begibt sich die Diskussion oft vollends auf Abwege. Von den vielen Argumenten, die dabei angeführt werden, halten sich drei mit besonderer Vehemenz: Weiblicher Terrorismus sei erstens ein neues und seltenes Phänomen; Frauen seien zweitens in der Regel Opfer; und drittens hätten Terroristinnen – im Gegensatz zu ihren männlichen Counterparts – in der Regel persönliche Motive. Die beiden ersten Argumente sind schlicht falsch und das dritte greift entschieden zu kurz. Es lohnt also, ein paar Breschen in das Dickicht zu schlagen...
Ransomware wie WannaCry und Petya/NotPetya versetzten weltweit Unternehmen in Sorge und verursachen erheblichen Schaden. Dabei sind sie nur der sichtbare Teil einer unzureichenden Sicherheitskultur, die dringend ein Update benötigt.
Ransomware, auch Kryptotrojaner genannt, sind kein neues Phänomen, sondern die zunehmend sichtbare Begleiterscheinung kollektiver IT-Unsicherheit. Die Ransomware WannaCry infizierte Mitte Mai weltweit mindestens 220.000 Windows Rechner. Dabei verschaffte sich der Trojaner Zugang zu den Dateien der Computer und verschlüsseln diese um eine Lösegeldzahlung zu erpressen. Dies war möglich über die als EternalBlue bekannte Lücke, die seit dem Betriebssystem Windwos XP auftrat und erst in diesem Jahr im Februar durch Microsoft geschlossen wurde. EternalBlue war für eine unbekannte Zeit in den Händen der NSA bis sie Anfang dieses Jahres durch eine Hackergruppe namens Shadow Brokers von der NSA „gestohlen“ und veröffentlicht wurde. Und obwohl Microsoft eiligst einen Patch veröffentlichte, offenbarten die bisher folgenreichsten bekannte Kryptowurm das Dilemma, in dem sich die Cyber-Sicherheitskultur aktuell befindet: Es ist eine Kultur des Schweigens, die dazu führt, dass das Sammeln und der Missbrauch von Sicherheitslücken gefördert statt verhindert wird....
Este artigo tem como objetivo principal analisar a relação entre utopia negativa e catástrofe na Estética de Adorno. O filósofo argumenta que a arte moderna é associada a um tipo de utopia que não é uma representação positiva do que a sociedade deveria ser. A utopia negativa apenas mostra o que a sociedade não deveria ser. A obra de arte está então carregada de contradições de uma sociedade não reconciliada. Tal explica por que a arte moderna e nova é tão recorrentemente caracterizada pelo feio, o repulsivo, o negro e o catastrófico. Na formulação de Adorno, a obra de arte se constitui como negação determinada da sociedade administrada. Como tal, a obra de arte é também negação determinada da cultura administrada, isto é, sua constituição é dada pela negação determinada dos padrões da Indústria Cultural e da tradição artística.
The diagnosis that we are living in a world risk society formulated by Ulrich Beck 20 years ago (Beck, Kölner Z Soziol Sozialpsychol 36:119–147, 1996) has lost nothing of its power, especially against the background of the Anthropocene debate. “Global risks” have been identified which are caused by human activities, technology, and modernization processes. Microplastics are a by-product of exactly these modernization processes, being distributed globally by physical processes like ocean currents, and causing effects far from their place of origin. In recent years, the topic has gained great prominence, as microplastics have been discovered nearly everywhere in the environment, raising questions about the impacts on food for human consumption. But are microplastics really a new phenomenon or rather a symptom of an old problem? And exactly what risks are involved? It seems that the phenomenon has accelerated political action—the USA has passed the Microbead-Free Waters Act 2015—and industries have pledged to fade out the use of microbeads in their cosmetic products. At first sight, is it a success for environmentalists and the protection of our planet?
This chapter deals with these questions by adopting a social-ecological perspective, discussing microplastics as a global risk. Taking four main characteristics of global risks, we develop four arguments to discuss (a) the everyday production of risk by societies, (b) scientific risk evaluation of microplastics, (c) social responses, and (d) problems of risk management. To illustrate these four issues, we draw on different aspects of the current scientific and public debate. In doing so, we contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the social-ecological implications of microplastics.
O artigo apresenta brevemente as possíveis implicações da recusa da clonagem, do DGPI e da eugenia liberal para o formalismo da ética discursiva, pois tal recusa poderia sugerir a eleição de um modo de vida privilegiado, (uma vida humana baseada na “inteireza do patrimônio genético”). Apresentamos os elementos do formalismo ético de Habermas e os argumentos centrais de sua crítica às intervenções eugênicas. Sugerimos que a defesa habermasiana da manutenção da indisponibilidade do patrimônio genético (por seu papel na autocompreensão ética do humano como ser livre e autônomo) situa essa matéria da filosofia moral na tensão entre a ação comunicativa, no qual o debate deveria ter sede, e a ação instrumental, que ameaça monopolizar as decisões sobre o tema.
The concept of the "comprehensive approach" has become a paradigm for international state engagement in the field of fostering sustainable peace in crisis-ridden countries. This approach stipulates joint actions of different governmental institutions. The ministry of defence, providing interventionist armed forces; the ministry of interior, providing police personal; the ministry of foreign affairs, providing crisis aid and the ministry of economic cooperation and development define the core actors on the highest level, whilst the implementation of this approach is left to the various, highly heterogeneous employees of the ministries and their sub-contractors...
El texto se propone exponer críticamente algunos contenidos fundamentales del concepto de totalidad y su importancia para el pensamiento dialéctico. Partiendo de una crítica de la concepción hegeliana de totalidad, busca sin embargo defender este concepto, aunque reconstruido desde un giro materialista a partir de la filosofía desarrollada por Theodor W. Adorno. El concepto de totalidad cambiaría su significado y función a partir de la crítica materialista, pasando de la idea de un todo determinado y definitivo, a un criterio epistemológico y normativo para oponerse con efectividad a la imposición de una totalidad social.
To imitate all that is hidden. The place of mimesis in Adorno’s theory of musical performance
(2017)
The article examines the use of the concept of mimesis in Adorno’s notes towards a theory of musical performance. In trying to idiosyncratically define the latter as “reproduction”, Adorno relied on a framework elaborating on concepts introduced by Arnold Schoenberg, Hugo Riemann and Walter Benjamin – a framework that the article discusses insofar as it deals with the problem of mimesis. Specific attention is devoted to the relation between Benjamin’s essays on language and translation and Adorno’s theory of notation, that soon became the crucial aspect of his theory of reproduction. Given the shortcomings of Adorno’s theory, which in the end did not achieve its goals, the article proposes to capitalize on his terminology while at the same time rethinking his framework in the light of recent musicological paradigms for the study of musical performance. On the whole, the article shows that it was Adorno’s philosophical assumptions – in particular the theses of music’s non-intentionality and of its non-similarity to language – that prevented him from convincingly theorizing musical performance, and suggests an alternative framework for future research.
Examina-se aqui um estudo realizado por Theodor Adorno acerca das locuções radiofônicas do ativista político de extrema direita nos EUA, o pastor Martin Luther Thomas, à década de 30. Detendo-se nestes discursos por meio do método da análise de conteúdo, Adorno buscava entender os motivos que levaram os indivíduos a perpetuarem as mesmas relações econômicas que suas forças haviam superado, em vez de substituí-los por uma forma de organização social superior e mais racional. Passados mais de 70 anos, este estudo é, sem dúvidas, um instrumental precípuo para compreendermos o atual cenário social, principalmente o político.
When Donald Trump arrived to power, many experts were concerned regarding his ideas on U.S. nuclear weapons. Particular attention was paid to his tweet about strengthening the U.S. nuclear arsenal after 25 years of the consistent WMD-disarmament under "The Cooperative Threat Reduction Program" (aka "Nunn-Lugar Program" an array of START treaties). In that preiod, U.S. and Russia removed more than 8,000 warheads and elements of the nuclear triad – submarines, ICBMs and long-range bombers. Now, experts worry that Trump’s aspirations will bury the U.S.-Russian nuclear cooperation aimed at global security...
Megaregional trade negotiations have become the subject of heated debate, above all in the context of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) and the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). In this article, I argue that the justice of the global order suffers from its institutional fragmentation into regime complexes. From a republican perspective, which aspires to non-domination as a guiding principles and idea of global justice, regime complexes raise specific and important challenges in that they open the door to specific forms of domination. I thereby challenge a more optimistic outlook in regime complexes, which paints a positive normative picture of regime complexes, arguing that they enable the enhancement of democracy beyond the state and, consequently, have the potential to reduce the democratic deficit in global governance. By drawing attention to how regime complexes reinforce domination-related injustice, this article contributes an original perspective on megaregionals and to exploring the implications of global justice as non-domination.
his articles discusses and contextualises tripleC's republication of Franz L. Neumann's essay Anxiety and Politics. It provides some background information on Neumann's life and works. The essay ascertains that in the age of new nationalisms, rising right-wing authoritarianism and authoritarian capitalism, Franz L Neumann's works can help us to critically understand contemporary society.
Advances in information and communication technologies enable more decentralized and individualized mechanisms for coordination and for managing societal complexity. This has important consequences for the role of conditionality and the idea of individual responsibility in two seemingly unrelated policy areas. First, the changing information infrastructure enables an extension of conditionality in the area of welfare through greater activation, enhanced self-management, and a personalization of risks. Second, conditionality and personal responsibility also form an important ideational template and a legitimatory basis for facilitating value creation that is based on data as a raw material. This argument is illustrated looking at the trajectories of the digital strategies in the United Kingdom and Germany. In both cases, data protection is depicted as a question of individual responsibility and tied to certain forms of individual conduct.
Threat perceptions is a popular topic among scholars of international relations, yet the focus is oftentimes how two states perceive and misperceive threats (Robert Jervis, David Singer among others). Threats are generally understood as potential harm directed against the territorial integrity or the political regime of the states in question or both. Wandering on the borders of the mainstream realist theory and the rational choice theory – popular since when behavioralism entered into IR literature in the 1960s – and the constructivism of the reflectivist era (Wendt), the topic has been made a subject of study through such several different conceptual lenses but mostly on an international/state level of analysis a la Waltz...
On the 28th of July, a 26 year old man, Ahmad A. launched a knife attack in a supermarket in the Barmbek area of Hamburg, wounding four people and killing one. He fled the scene of the attack before being forcefully apprehended by some bystanders. The attacker, a rejected asylum seeker, was understood by the police to have been recently religiously radicalised. Hamburg’s Interior Minister Andy Grote explained that he was known to the police as an “Islamist but not a jihadist” and was suspected of having psychological problems. Prosecutors have asserted that he had no known connections with any organized radical network or group and that he had planned on dying as a martyr...
A growing number of defense-industrial 3D printing fairs, print-a-thons and the amount of defense dollars, particularly in the US, going into the technology of 3D printing speak to the fact that the defense industry and some countries’ armed forces recognize the great potential of the technology. 3D printing indeed allows the quicker, cheaper, and easier development of weapons, and even entirely new weapon designs. This applies to the full range of weapons categories: Small arms and light weapons (e.g. guns, guns, guns and grenade launchers), conventional weapon systems (drones, tanks, missiles, hypersonic scramjets) – and possibly even weapons of mass destruction.
Scholars are coming to terms with the fact that something is rotten in the new democracies of Central Europe. The corrosion has multiple symptoms: declining trust in democratic institutions, emboldened uncivil society, the rise of oligarchs and populists as political leaders, assaults on an independent judiciary, the colonization of public administration by political proxies, increased political control over media, civic apathy, nationalistic contestation and Russian meddling. These processes signal that the liberal-democratic project in the so-called Visegrad Four (the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia) has been either stalled, diverted or reversed. This article investigates the “illiberal turn” in the Visegrad Four (V4) countries. It develops an analytical distinction between illiberal “turns” and “swerves”, with the former representing more permanent political changes, and offers evidence that Hungary is the only country in the V4 at the brink of a decisive illiberal turn.
This article reports the results of a replication of Bobbitt-Zeher’s 2007 article "The Gender Income Gap and the Role of Education". Models that emulate the original specifications (by and large) reproduce the original results. However, models that adhere to Bobbitt-Zeher’s theory concerning the gendered effect of family formation call into question her finding that "values appear to matter only modestly, while family formation has virtually no effect on the income gap".
The paper will outline a research project – its goals and methods – that focuses on what 1) makes humans flee from their home, land and country, at the risk of losing their lives, 2) seek refuge in another place, 3) what individual assessments they made before, during and after flight, and 4) how they assess the question of return to their countries/places of origin when the original causes of their flight – e.g. civil unrest, civil strife or civil war – are not any more directly present in the country or place from which they fled...
Readers of Hannah Arendt’s now classic formulation of the statelessness problem in her 1951 book The Origins of Totalitarianism abound at a moment when the number of stateless peoples worldwide continues to rise exponentially. Along with statelessness, few concepts in Arendt scholarship have spawned such a volume of literature, and perhaps none have provoked as much interest outside of the field of philosophy, as ‘the right to have rights.’ Interpreting this enigmatic term exposes the heart of our beliefs about the nature of the political and has important consequences for how we practice politics on a global scale because it implicitly takes plural human beings, and not the citizen, as its subjects. Arendt’s conceptualization of this problem remains unsurpassed in its diagnosis of the political situation of statelessness, as well as its intimate description of the human cost of what she refers to as ‘world loss,’ a phenomenon that the prevailing human rights and global justice discourse does not take into account. And yet, as an alternative framework for thinking about global politics, the right to have rights resists easy interpretation, let alone practical application.
Atheism remains one of the most extreme taboos in Saudi Arabia. It is a red line that no one can cross. Atheists in Saudi Arabia have been suffering from imprisonment, maginalisation, slander, ostracisation and even execution. Indeed, atheists in Saudi are considered terrorists. Efforts for normalisation between those who believe and those who don’t remain bleak in the kingdom.
Despite constant warnings of Saudi religious authorities of “the danger of atheism”, which is, according to them, “equal to disbelieving in God”, many citizens in the kingdom are turning their back on Islam. Perhaps inter alia the Saudi dehumanising strict laws in the name of Islam, easy access to information and mass communication are the primary driving forces pushing Saudis to leave religion. Unfortunately, those who explicitly do, find themselves harshly punished or forced to live dual lives.
Conflict and insecurity have largely been the major driving factors behind the current wave of population influx in Europe. It is desirable that to understand the current migrant crisis in Europe, it is essential to understand the nature of the on-going conflict and existing insecurities in the home states from where the migrants are coming...
Women’s protection has been largely discussed in conflict and gender scholarship and promoted as a key priority for governments, NGOs and international community. However, when critically analysed, the meaning of protection in conflict settings and the understanding of who should provide protection in emergencies, conflict and complex humanitarian crisis remain ambiguous. In long-term conflict settings for example, it is unclear whose role it is to protect civilians...
O presente trabalho aborda o problema da compreensão e justificação do conceito habermasiano de tolerância (Toleranz) nas sociedades marcadas por diferentes e incompatíveis (conflitantes) imagens de mundo (verschiedene und unverträgliche Weltbildern), onde se elaboram e articulam os contextos da justificação (Kontexte der Rechtfertigung) e o contexto da tolerância (Kontext der Toleranz). A meu ver, Habermas estabelece uma distinção ambivalente entre tolerância e não discriminação, baseada em uma dissonância cognitiva (kognitive Uneinheitlichkeit) aplicável às imagens de mundo (Weltbildern) concorrentes e mutuamente excludentes, resultando em uma diferenciação das expectativas normativas referente à resolução de dilemas que envolvem formas de vida culturalmente diferenciadas. Nas situações em que as objeções a crenças e práticas de uma forma de vida particular não se encontram baseadas em razões públicas (öffentliche Gründe), não caberia falar em tolerância, mas na luta pela igualdade de direitos de cidadania e reconhecimento de direitos culturais. A dificuldade consiste em declarar quais crenças e práticas seriam “eticamente objetáveis ou erradas”, mas que não poderiam ser igualmente julgadas, com base em “razões públicas”, como “moralmente rejeitáveis”, dada a existência de razões de aceitação (que não eliminam, mas superam as razões de objeção) e, portanto, objeto da tolerância, bem como aquelas crenças e práticas que não poderiam ser toleradas sob qualquer justificação moral baseada em “razões públicas” (crenças e práticas igualmente “eticamente objetáveis ou erradas” e “moralmente rejeitáveis”). Além disso, como ressalta Forst, nem sempre é possível estabelecer quais razões são “públicas” e podem constituir o fundamento de objeções razoáveis às crenças e práticas de alguém considerado “eticamente diferente” de “nós” ou ainda, como assevera Lafont, se estas mesmas razões estariam “disponíveis”.
Security, arms control, disarmament and confidence building measures in the Baltic sea region
(2017)
Taking into consideration the stalemete of all disarmament negotiations as well as the worsening situation in the Baltic Sea region, I would like to present another paper as well, discussing the security trends in the Baltic Sea region and the potential of confidence building measures in this region as well as to discuss in this context the prospects of arms control and disarmament in general as well as specifically in Europeparticularly in the Baltic Sea region...
Not unlike the recent report Filling the ranks on the recruitment problems of the British Army shows for the UK, the German armed forces (Bundeswehr) struggle badly to meet their recruitment goals and to fulfill the “Trendwende Personal” (the turnaround in the personnel strength) as proclaimed by the German Defence Minister Ursula von der Leyen. Last year the recruitment department of the Bundeswehr tried a new way of targeting especially young people on YouTube. With a series of 59 episodes called Die Rekruten (The Recruits) YouTube users followed a couple of German Navy recruits through their basic training at the German Navy Technical School.
The series was widely criticised for not showing the serious implications of military service. Two weeks ago, the new series MALI on the deployment of German forces with the United Nations mission MINUSMA in Mali started as a sequel. But does the new series give a realistic impression of the challenges and risks of being a German soldier today and why should this be a requirement for a YouTube series?
