April 2004Die europäische Stadt
by Walter Siebel
In den kurzen goldenen Jahren nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg schien die europäische Stadt der Modellfall eines sozial ausgeglichenen, kulturell integrierten und prosperierenden Gemeinwesens. Heute wird ihr Ende vorhergesagt. Ihre Gestalt verliert sich in einem gesichtslosen Siedlungsbrei. Der öffentliche Raum wird privatisiert. Leerstehende Wohnungen und Industriebrachen reißen Lücken in das städtische Gefüge. Es entstehen abgeschottete Quartiere der Armen und der Einwanderer. Die Globalisierung, die Macht der Immobilienentwickler und die Finanzmisere stellen die europäische Stadt als eine Bastion des Wohlfahrtsstaats in Frage. Aber es gibt auch soziale, kulturelle, ökonomische und politische Gegentendenzen. Sie werden in diesem Band diskutiert, der sich an Stadtplaner, Stadtpolitiker und alle stadtpolitisch Interessierten ebenso richtet wie an Architekten und Sozialwissenschaftler. Beiträger sind u. a. Dieter Läpple, Peter Marcuse, Enzo Mingione, Claus Offe, Saskia Sassen, Thomas Sieverts und Erika Spiegel.

November 1976Abhängigkeit und Entwicklung in Lateinamerika
Ins Deutsche übersetzt von Hedda Wagner
by Enzo Faletto, Fernando H. Cardoso, Hedda Wagner
Auch sogenannte »Standardwerke« haben ihre besonderen Schicksale. Dies gilt durchaus von dem Buch der beiden am Centro Brasileiro de Análise e Planejamento in São Paulo arbeitenden Wissenschaftler, das seit seinem Erscheinen im Jahre 1969 zwar in Lateinamerika zahlreiche Auflagen erzielt hat, aber erst jetzt allmählich Europa erreicht, obschon es unter Lateinamerika-Spezialisten längst Gegenstand ausführlicher Debatten ist. Die Analyse der Ursachen von Unterentwicklung, der wirtschaftlichen Abhängigkeit der Länder der Dritten Welt von den Industrieländern und der daraus folgenden »Verzerrungen« und »Verwerfungen« in der Sozialstruktur und im politischen System der abhängigen Staaten ist, im Hinblick auf die Verhältnisse in Lateinamerika, zum ersten Male von Cardoso und Faletto entfaltet und zu einer sozialwissenschaftlichen Theorie verdichtet worden. Die meisten neueren Beschreibungen der Konfliktfelder zwischen »Metropole« und »Peripherie«, zwischen reichen und armen Ländern zehren – jedenfalls was die Kriterien betrifft, unter die sie die Abhängigkeitsbeziehungen zusammenfassen – von Cardosos und Falettos Konzept oder haben aus ihm Nutzen gezogen.

Lifestyle, Sport & LeisureSeptember 2019Ford versus Ferrari
The battle for supremacy at Le Mans 1966
by John Starkey
What happened when America's richest car company, producing many thousands of cars per year, went head-to-head with Ferrari of Italy in the mid ‘60s? This is the story of an unstoppable force coming up against the stubbornness of an immovable object – that is, Ford against Ferrari. Enzo Ferrari, whose company produced fewer than four hundred cars per year in 1963, wasn’t going to bow to Ford after he had turned down its offer to buy his company. The only place left to duke it out was on the racetracks of the world … and one in particular: Le Mans ‘66.

Christian spirituality & religious experienceFebruary 2015Lectio Divina
by Enzo Bianchi
The Bible is an ancient, enigmatic text from a culture vastly different from our own and most of us find it hard to read: how then can we understand its importance in the church, and how can it enrich our lives? Central to Lectio Divina is the conviction that to read the Bible faithfully and prayerfully is to learn an art. It is also to be in community, and to enter into dialogue with the God who speaks to each of us through the biblical page. Enzo Bianchi touches on some of the key insights in the history of Christian biblical interpretation - from the brilliant thinker Origen in the third century, to the development and refinement of historical criticism and related approaches in the modern era. He explains how to do lectio divina and understand its four 'moments' - lectio, meditatio, oratio, contemplatio. This is not simply a book about how to approach to the Bible, because Scripture ultimately wants to lead us beyond itself - to the truth and mystery of Christ that can never be captured fully in the written word.

A True Story
by Cary Fagan, Enzo Lord Mariano
This is the story of one refugee family’s harrowing journey, based on author Cary Fagan’s own family history. The graphic novel follows a young Jewish boy, Maurice, and his family as they flee their home in Belgium during the Second World War.

All the while, Maurice is intent on continuing his education and growing up to be a lawyer. He overcomes obstacles to find a professor to study with, works toward a high school diploma while in the camp, and is ultimately accepted to university in Canada. His English dictionary becomes a beloved tool and beacon of hope through the danger and turmoil of the family’s migration. Moments of lightness and humor balance the darkness in this powerful story of one refugee family’s courage and resilience, and of the dictionary that came to represent their freedom.
