Introduction to a divided country
by Roland Benedikter

(Heinrich Neisser, Jean Monnet Chair of European Integration, University of Innsbruck) — "Refreshingly different." (Herbert Dorfmann, Member of the European Parliament) Joe Biden's America is deeply divided. Donald Trump's term in office made many problems of modern US society visible, which Biden now has to solve. What do American politics look like under Joe Biden? What legacy did Donald Trump leave behind, and what kind of impact does it have? How can the deeper causes, factors and drivers of current US developments be put in a historical context? Roland Benedikter provides a thorough insight into a complex country. In a compact and comprehensible way, he explains the background, challenges and perspectives of the Biden era, while also providing an overview of the current state of US society and culture in general.

October 2022From Dream to Trauma: Mental abuse in partnerships
by Caroline Wenzel
The level of domestic abuse has been increasing for years, but often only cases of physical abuse hit the headlines. Hardly anyone talks about the mental, or psychological, abuse that usually precedes a physical or sexual assault. Those affected do not usually recognise the destructive dynamic in their relationship until far too late. In this book, three case histories illustrate the typical forms of mental abuse in relationships. In addition, experts explain the topic from psychological, therapeutic, political and legal perspectives, and the head of a counselling centre for male victims of mental abuse also has his say. An important and startling book.

October 2020Joe Biden
Ein Porträt
by Evan Osnos, Ulrike Bischoff, Stephan Gebauer
Das erste deutschsprachige Buch über Joe Biden »Joe Biden ist zugleich der unglücklichste und der glücklichste Mensch, den ich kenne.« Das sagt ein Weggefährte über den 46. Präsidenten der Vereinigen Staaten. Der vielfach ausgezeichnete Journalist Evan Osnos begleitet den Politiker aus Delaware seit Jahren und hat ihn immer wieder interviewt, zuletzt im Sommer 2020. Diese und weitere Gespräche mit Angehörigen und Weggefährten wie Barack Obama bilden die Grundlage dieser brillanten Nahaufnahme des 1942 geborenen Biden, in dessen Werdegang sich die Veränderungen der politischen Kultur der USA spiegeln. Mit gerade einmal 29 Jahren wurde der Sohn eines Autohändlers in den US-Senat gewählt. Seinen Amtseid legte er ab, nachdem er nur wenige Wochen zuvor seine erste Frau und seine Tochter bei einem Autounfall verloren hatte. Nach Höhen und Tiefen führte ihn seine Karriere schließlich als Vizepräsident ins Weiße Haus. Joe Biden hat dramatische Schicksalsschläge und überraschende Wendungen erlebt. Vielleicht versetzt ihn gerade das in die Lage, eine zerrissene Nation zu einen, die Wunden der Trump-Ära zu heilen und einen neuen politischen Aufbruch zu ermöglichen.

Roman
by Joe R. Lansdale, Heide Franck

Immer dann, wenn er an den Ort eines Verbrechens gelangt, geschieht es: der Lärm, das Licht, die Wärme. Und die unerträglichen Bilder der Gewalt.

Denn um die Schreckensszenarien aus seinem Gedächtnis zu verbannen, betäubt er sich mit Alkohol. Eines Tages taucht Harrys Jugendschwarm Kayla auf und bittet ihn, mithilfe seines besonderen Talents den Mord an ihrem Vater aufzuklären. Harrys Schicksal scheint sich zu wenden … Ein unheimlicher Thriller, die bewegende Geschichte einer geplagten Seele und ein weiteres literarisches Meisterstück im facettenreichen Werk von Joe R. Lansdale, der auch hier wieder alle Genregrenzen sprengt.

Health & Personal DevelopmentJerks!
And how to spot them
by Tere Díaz Sendra
Are you tired of asking your partner and explaining what you need, and receive noresponse? Are you frustrated by feeling that your needs are not considered? Do you fearthat your relationship will limit your personal growth? Do you feel that there is love, butalso that his love catches you and wears you down? Many people, particularly women, seek therapy for symptoms like depression and anxiety, but without clear awareness of what causes them. Many blame themselves for not being “good enough, ” and not understanding to their partners.The common denominator of their mental health challenge is the minimization and invisibility caused by the oppression in in their exchanges with their partner, as opposed to receiving encouragement and support for their personal and professional development. This oppression will lead to diminishment and limiting their decisions through silences,gestures, humiliations or even physical violence, while they protect themselves byassuming a role that is lower than that of his/her partner. Jerks are not always easy to identify; they tend to confuse their partners with effusivedisplays of love that cover up their high doses of control and abuse. We talk about thejerks, those men who make people fall in love with sweet words, flowers and attention and who, little by little, display their crude, aggressive and even dangerous ways of “loving”. They destroy self-esteem and make their prey feel guilty for their behaviors. This book is a guide that speaks to the person trapped in a pitiful relationship. To reflect on your daily life and identify the characteristics of an abusive relationship, leading her by the hand to recognize the beliefs that trap her, to distinguish the patterns that she repeats, and to put into practice techniques that will allow her to get out of the abuse,recover, and bloom again.

Filme für den SDR
by Samuel Beckett
Berühmt wurde Samuel Beckett als Theaterinnovateur (Warten auf Godot) und Romancier (Der Namenlose), der Literaturnobelpreisträger schrieb jedoch auch Hörspiele und inszenierte Kurzfilme für das Fernsehen. 1966 produzierte er für den Süddeutschen Rundfunk (SDR) im Rahmen der Reihe »Der Autor als Regisseur« das Fernsehspiel He Joe und schuf damit ein revolutionäres Stück Medienkunst. Bis 1986 folgten sieben weitere »crazy inventions«, wie Beckett seine TV-Arbeiten nannte. Immer wieder erprobt er, von den technischen Möglichkeiten des Theaters zunehmend enttäuscht, neue Arrangements für Stimme und Schweigen, für Raum, Kamera und Musik. Damit erfand Beckett, so Gilles Deleuze in dem Essay Erschöpft, neben den Sprachen des Romans und der Theaterstücke eine »Sprache III«: »Das Entscheidende beim Bild ist nicht sein kläglicher Inhalt, sondern die wahnsinnige Energie, die jederzeit explodieren kann.«
