Im Jahre 2013 veröffentlicht Göran Therborn ein Buch mit dem Titel "The Killing Fields of Inequality", das das Bild einer verwüsteten Soziallandschaft nach der politischen Revolution des Neoliberalismus zeichnet. Wieviel Tote hat die Durchsetzung eines Regimes der grenzenlosen Geldschöpfung, der ungehemmten Selbstvermarktung und trostlosen Eigenverantwortung gekostet?
Is the recent indignation against economic inequality only resentment and envy? What is the moral and civic atonal basis of a critique of inequality?
Inequality should not be measured only by the size of people's wallets. The vital inequality of life, health, and death, and the existential inequality of persons, of their autonomy, recognition, and respect have also to be taken into account.
The lecture will present a morally and theoretically grounded critique of multidimensional inequality, as well as a global empirical overview of inequality and its consequences.
Prof. Dr. Göran Therborn, Sozialtheoretiker und Soziologe; Professor für Soziologie an der University of Cambridge
Im Gespräch mit Dr. Oliver Nachtwey, Volkswirtschaftler und Soziologe; Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Institut für Soziologie der TU Darmstadt

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
