Ukraine war

The search for Europe's identity

EUROPE: Peter Sloterdijk saw Europe as a kind of theater, with ever-new attempts to recreate and imitate the Roman Empire. The continent stands for humanistic ideals, but has nevertheless produced imperialism and countless wars. Why does a Europe characterized by a stoic ethic of self-restraint and a Christian message of peace and love lead to so much exploitation and oppression in practice?

The Ukraine war is really about a new world order

CONFLICTS: Glenn Diesen believes it is time to look at the relationship with Russia and 'the others' – at least an attempt to observe the situation from their side. Meanwhile, the US defines 'democracy' as its 'rules-based order' – eagerly promoted with 800 US military aces around the world. A graveyard democracy, an illusion of peace.
