        Born White, Zulu Bred

        A Memoir of a Third World Child

        by GG Alcock

        Born White Zulu Bred is the story of a white child and his brother raised in poverty in a Zulu community in rural South Africa during the apartheid era. His extraordinary parents, Creina and Neil Alcock, gave up lives of comfort and privilege to live and work among the destitute people of Msinga, whose material and social well-being became their mission. But more than that, this is a story about life in South Africa today which, through GG’s unique perspective, explores the huge diversity of the country’s people – from tribal Zulu warriors to sophisticated urban black township entrepreneurs. A journey from the arid wastes of Msinga into the thriving informal economies of urban townships. GG’s view is that we do not live in a black and white world but in a world of contrast and diversity, one which he wants South Africans, and a world audience, to see for what it is without descending into racial and historical clichés. He takes us through the mazes of township marketplaces, shacks and crowded streets to reveal the proud and dignified world of township entrepreneurs who are transforming South Africa’s economy. This is the world that he moves in today as a successful businessman, still walking those spaces and celebrating the vibrant informal economies that are taking part in the Kasinomic Revolution. GG’s story is about being truly African, even as a white person, and it draws on the adventures, the cultural challenges, the informal spaces and the future possibilities of South Africa.

        Born Hutsi

        by Fiston Mudacumura

        The author was raised in a family of only survivors from the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsis. Even FARG (A survivors fund) allegedly paid for his school fees for some time. Through FARG reform, he learned that his father had associated with perpetrators even if he was also killed in 1994. Digesting that information as a teenager was not easy. In this book, you read about his other close-to-normal upbringing like infatuation, sex advice from fellow teenagers, getting conned in Paris and arrested on his first trip to France, his take from the "Ndi umunyarwanda" campaign, #PK saving him from getting expelled at the university, joining a political party at the university,...

        Auf verlorenem Posten

        by Slavoj Žižek, Frank Born

        Der Kapitalismus, so Slavoj Žižek, gleiche einer Comicfigur, die stolz über den Dachfirst hinaus ins Leere läuft – um dann jäh abzustürzen. In seinem neuen, kämpferischen Buch setzt sich Žižek mit den Perspektiven der Linken auseinander: Er entlarvt die Widersprüche des Neoliberalismus, diskutiert die Positionen von Alain Badiou und Antonio Negri und erklärt, warum wir angesichts von Wirtschaftskrise, Biotechnologie und Umweltkollaps der Diktatur des Proletariats eine neue Chance geben sollten. Dabei erweist er sich wieder einmal als das externe Hirn seiner Leser: Er sieht die Filme, registriert die Nachrichten und macht sich darüber die Gedanken, für die wir keine Zeit haben.
