Empörungsgemeinschaften: A Permanent Error
Beginning with Goldschmidt’s remarks on outrage in the seventh chapter of Contradiction Set Free, the author examines the function of outrage in social movements in a sort of dialogue with Goldschmidt’s work. While in our time common outrage against this or that bad “other” establishes only the smallest bond of “communities of outrage,” marking by the same token a relapse from civilized into scapegoating societies, Goldschmidt seems to view outra…
On Ways of Looking at Europe’s Troubled Geist, Part 2: Introduction
‘The only remedy for bad public debate is more good public debate’, this advice, originally stated by Éric Weil and quoted by Patrice Canivez in the present collection, could stand as the motto of
Saying 'No' to Power: From Diasporic Knowledge to Reclaiming Ethical Monotheism
In European philosophies of history, the linear paradigm that has prevailed for centuries as a derivative of Christian salvation history (Heilsgeschichte), ultimately lost its monopoly with the arrival of the “post-age.” The result of this has been that ideas that have survived on the margins, even the cyclical interpretation of time attached to religious traditions, now seem capable of outliving the short-lived belief in continuous progress. Acc…
No Holy Marriage: Luther and Rosenzweig as Translators Driven by Belief
As is well known, the German language as we know it today, was created largely by Martin Luther's translation of the Bible into German. His amalgam from the Kanzleideutsch of his time and several d
The Management of Hate: Nation, Affect, and the Governance of Right-Wing Extremism in Germany
It still touches a remote colonial nerve in Western, even German, solidly leftist postwar self-awareness, to find fellow-Germans in the town one lives in to be frankly seen as objects of study. Thi
The Republic of Letters and Political Reality: Introduction
As is well known, in Part 7 of Plato’s Republic, Socrates favoured the idea of uniting the philosopher and the king into the ideal ruler of the ideal republic.1 Modern concepts of open societies re
Europe 2016: The Rhetoric of Unity and the Rise of Neo-Authoritarianism
Over the past few years, even before the Brexit campaign and the outcome of the 2016 referendum in the United Kingdom, Europe has been haunted by the spectre of an impending split and disintegration of the Union. Self-appointed “kings” and “philosophers” of greater Europe seem to have been competing for the “unity award,” with more and more of them failing dramatically. One indicator of the public alarm at the prospect of the Union’s split is the…
Religion und Politik: Das Messianische in Theologien, Religionswissenschaften und Philosophien des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts
Die Verhältnisse von religiösen und säkularen Ordnungen stehen neu zur Debatte. Sah es lange so aus, als würden die säkularen Ordnungen sich nach und nach gegen die religiösen durchsetzen, so hat sich dieses Bild entschieden verkehrt: Die neue Hinwendung zu Religionen ist ein politisch relevantes Thema geworden. Das Phänomen des Messianismus hat in allen Umbruchzeiten eine schillernde Zwischenstellung gehalten. So könnten einerseits die christlic…

Propheten des Mitleids: Herman Cohens Mitleidsbegriff als Tor zum Stern der Erlösung
The German-Jewish philosophers Hermann Cohen and Franz Rosenzweig, have - both in their own ways - produced systems of philosophy at a time that was supposed to be the time after systems. With their respective systems they - both in their own ways - transcended the apologetic stance of Jewish thought by placing the Jewishness of their thinking at a methodologically central point for ?general philosophy.? However, the link between Cohen?s system a…
Fragen nach dem einen Gott: Die Monotheismusdebatte im Kontext
In den gegenwärtigen globalen Konflikten, die von vielen als »Kulturkämpfe« wahrgenommen werden, spielen Religionen, speziell die monotheistischen, eine umstrittene Rolle. Die Autoren der Beiträge in diesem Buch gehen aus verschiedenen Perspektiven der Frage nach, inwiefern es das Denken des Einen Gottes ist, das einerseits einen unhintergehbaren »Fortschritt in der Geistigkeit« darstellt, andererseits eine Quelle permanenter und teilweise gewalt…
