Love! Daniel Schreiber on the political power of love
Powerlessness has become the underlying political sentiment of our time. The narrative has been seized by a rhetoric of hate and contempt for humanity. Violence is again becoming a bigger factor in public life. It is no wonder that growing numbers of people are abandoning their belief in political action and retreating into the private realm. But we know for sure that now, especially, is the time for protest and collective action. How can we find a political stance that is able to stand up to the spreading climate of hate? Liebe! [“Love!”], by bestselling author Daniel Schreiber, is a personal and gripping appeal to actively resist a culture of hate. Drawing on political, philosophical and sociohistorical examples, he reminds us of the political power of love. A book about revolt and comfort – and rediscovering one’s own political voice. Host: Bettina Böttinger
