Dieses Hörspiel ist eine sorgfältig recherchierte und umfassende Tatsachensammlung zum Ukraine-Krieg. Mit eigenen Vermutungen hält sich der Autor zurück. Die blossen Vorgänge sind dramatisch genug. Wie ist der Konflikt historisch entstanden? Mit welchen Weichenstellungen wurde auf den Krieg hingesteuert? Um was geht es wirklich? Wie haben die Ukraine, die USA, die NATO und Russland die Eskalations-Spirale angetrieben? Es geht nicht darum, wer "gut" oder "böse" ist, wer "gewinnt" oder "verliert". Es geht darum, die Zusammenhänge zu verstehen.

Fr. Vincent Miceli breaks ground in this analysis of seventeen Enlightenment theologians and philosophers who contributed to the rise of atheism. He explores their efforts and successes in convincing mankind to deny the existence of God, and he demonstrates how atheism has succeeded by creating mythical gods to stand in the place of God. What Fr. Miceli shows is that each tenet of atheism doesn't deny the existence of a Higher Power; it simply replaces the true Power with a false power.

Messerscharf analysiert Top-Ökonom Thomas Mayer die fatalen Fehlentwicklungen der Wirtschafts- und Außenpolitik Deutschlands unter der Führung von Angela Merkel.

Dr. Thom Mayer knows first-hand that true leadership stems from our actions, not our positions, especially in times of crisis. Drawing on his experiences heading the 9/11 Pentagon rescue efforts, dealing with on-field emergencies in the NFL (he was at Damar Hamlin's bedside after his injury), training mobile response medical teams in Ukraine, and more, Mayer covers such topics as why trust is vital for innovation; the critical role of failure in devising new ways of leading; and more.

Information is power, and the time is now for digital liberation. Access Rules mounts a strong and hopeful argument for how informational tools at present in the hands of a few could instead become empowering machines for everyone.

Authors Viktor Mayer-Schönberger and Thomas Ramge contend that if we disrupt monopoly power and create a level playing field, digital innovations can emerge to benefit us all.
