The zentraleBotschaft of much-discussed essay with right-wing speeches by per Leo, Max Steinbeis and Daniel-Pascal Zorn is in his title: instead of excluding rights reflex from conversation, it could be conducive to discuss with m – as is The final word of book is “in a civilized way”. The strategy of authors ISTREFLEXIV: although y do not make any illusions to convince right-wing radicals with Argumentenvon of falsehood of right positions. But y recommend giving right opportunity to disavow yourself: by Manihnen “A few uncomfortable questions”, you leave it to Ihnenselbst, “wher you want to ridicule yourself”. The discourse, assumption, will bring contradictory right thinking to light. Werschlechte has arguments and has no justified antworteng on sharp questions, no one will believe it afterwards.

How difficult it is to translate this calculus into communicative practice can be observed in a field in which “casual Zwangdes better argument” actually has its homeland: in university. DasHannah Arendt Center at Bard College in New York has a conference on major issues of time every autumn. This year it was wenigüberraschend to ” Crises democracy”. Roger Berkowitz, Professor FürPolitikwissenschaft and head of Hannah Arendt Center, did what Leo and Co. suggest: He launched a transatlantic attempt to talk with rights and invited MarcJongen, Sloterdijk student and philosophy lecturer in Karlsruhe, who Often as a house philosopher of that AfD dubbed, for which he now sits in Bundestag. Where could you ask him more uncomfortable questions than at an academic meeting?
The house philosopher of AfD at a New York meeting
Jongen came Undlieferte. His talk “must democracy be more populist?” (Answer: YES) consisted of a series of ses: Germany is not a democracy, but eineDiktatur with a liberal countenance, which is why people have turned away from elites and AfD. For AfD truly represent it, this people, Populismussei real democracy – after all, Populus just like demos “people”. And because this people are “partly defined by genetic and partly KulturelleZugehörigkeit”, one can especially integrate Muslim Flüchtlingenicht. Although he is opposed to building nations on concept of Rassezu, Jongen said, but one should “not throw out child with bathwater”, every nation needs a strong we, “rooted in a common ground and united by a common history” – Freilichnicht by Nazi era, as he repeatedly assured: “GespensterHitlers” should finally be left behind.
Reactions from academic world could not be long awaited: an open letter signed by more than fifty scholars, including academic stars such as Judith Butler, Étienne Balibar and Axel Honneth, called Jongen’s invitation a serious Mistake that allowed “party philosopher” of AfD to abuse Prestigedes Arendt Center for his own agenda. Besondersgeschmacklos was invitation not least because Arendt himself had been persecuted by DenNationalsozialisten. Berkowitz should have known that “Jongen repeats xenophobic statements that make AfD in Germany such a dangerous phenomenon.” Instead, DasArendt Center has courted him in addition to his desire not to mention Hitlernoch Nazis, willing to comply.

Several times, Berkowitzinzwischen has taken a position on se accusations, his first self-justification appeared even before open protest letter. Berkowitz always defends his stance in use of DieNamensgeberin of centre: Hannah Arendt had tried her life to comprehend DasBöse and had not gone out of controversy. Therefore, SEIIHM, Berkowitz, now not afraid of “tyranny of Intellectual mob” – with this remarkable formulation, he does not think of right jongn, but signatories of protest letter, who are from left camp. For Berkowitz It is quite clear that invitation of Jongen KeinerleiUnterstützung AfD or right thought. On contrary, through invitation of a right-wing thinker, he opened a room for critical discussion with DiesenIdeen. We just want to talk, is Berkowitz ‘ liberalePosition. To talk always means to exchange more than just dry arguments, my adversaries.
