    Fortschreitende Revolution. Zwischen Praxis und utopischen Horizonten
    Überall auf der Welt kommen bei Protesten immer wieder reale Körper ? egal, welcher Ethnizität, welchen Geschlechts, welchen Alters und welcher sexuellen Orientierung ? auf den Straßen zusammen, um gemeinsam gegen das Machtmonopol eines Staates zu kämpfen. Wenn es um die Unterdrückung dieses zivilen Widerstands geht, zeigt der Autoritarismus verschiedene Gesichter und wendet vielfältige Strategien an, die bis zu brutaler Gewalt reichen. Eine Gemeinsamkeit autoritärer Regime ist ihre Angst vor Versammlungen ? vor den tanzenden, singenden und kämpfenden Körpern ?, als würden sie diese für die kraftvollste Waffe halten. Doch sind sie das tatsächlich?Unter welchen Umständen siegen derartige Proteste, die sich gewaltsamen Methoden verweigern? Was erreichen sie? Fortschritt, einen anhaltenden Prozess oder Rückschritt? Wo liegt ihr Ausgangspunkt, und was ist ihr endgültiges Ziel? Wie lässt sich die Spannung zwischen der Praxis der friedlichen Proteste und ihren utopischen Horizonten erfassen? Gemeinsam mit den Gesprächsteilnehmer:innen werden diese Fragen in Hinblick auf unterschiedliche Weltgegenden und politische Systeme diskutiert.________________________________________________________________________________________It is the real bodies of different races, genders, ages and sexual orientations that go to the streets and gather together in different places around the world, fighting for power against the monopoly of the state. Authoritarianism has various faces and strategies for the suppression of civic protests, with brutal violence at the extreme end of the spectrum. One thing authoritarian regimes have in common is the fear of people gatherings ? of the bodies that dance, sing and fight ? as if it is the most powerful weapon. Is it?When do these protests, which refuse violent methods, win? What do they result in ? progress, a process or regress? What is their starting point, and what is their final destination? How can this tension between the praxis of peaceful protests and their utopian horizons be grasped? Together with the speakers, we will reflect upon these and other questions from the perspective of different geographies and political systems.

    Plato’s Republic, Apology, and Phaedo: The Grandfather of Metaphysics, Ethics, Epistemology, and Political Philosophy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1000min
    Plato was one of the first Greek philosophers to make a great impact on the way we look at the world. He was a student of Socrates, and a mentor to Aristotle. Plato's most notable work was his Theory of Forms, Theory of Knowledge, and political philosophy.This audio program is comprised of Plato's three most noteworthy books: Republic, Phaedo, and Apology.Inside, you will discover....Metaphysics: In Plato's dialogues, Socrates and his company of disputants had something to say on many subjects, including several aspects of metaphysics. These include religion and science, human nature, love, and sexuality. More than one dialogue contrasts perception and reality, nature and custom, and body and soul.The Forms: "Platonism" and its theory of Forms (or theory of Ideas) denies the reality of the material world, considering it only an image or copy of the real world. The theory of Forms is first introduced in the Phaedo dialogue. According to this theory of Forms there are at least two worlds: the apparent world of concrete objects, grasped by the senses, which constantly changes, and an unchanging and unseen world of Forms or abstract objects, grasped by pure reason.Epistemology: Several aspects of epistemology are also discussed by Socrates, such as wisdom. More than one dialogue contrasts knowledge and opinion. Plato's epistemology involves Socrates arguing that knowledge is not empirical, and that it comes from divine insight. The Forms are also responsible for both knowledge or certainty, and are grasped by pure reason.Ethics: Several dialogues discuss ethics including virtue and vice, pleasure and pain, crime and punishment, and justice and medicine. Plato views "The Good" as the supreme Form, somehow existing even "beyond being".And much, much more....Begin listening today and learn how Plato lived a truthful and ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Art of Genes
    Over the past twenty years there has been a revolution in biology; for the first time, scientists have been able to unravel the details of how organisms make themselves. The mechanisms by which a fertilized egg develops into an adult can now be grasped in a way that was unimaginable a few decades ago. This book is the first account of these exciting new findings, and of their broader significance in how we view ourselves. Through a highly original synthesis of science and art, Enrico Coen vividly describes this revolution in our understanding of how plants and animals develop. He draws parallels between the way genes respond to the developing pattern of an organism and the way an artist responds to a painting being created on canvas -- a memorable analogy that shows how the organism develops through an interactive dialogue in which there is no separation between plan and execution.
