Paul Mason Bücher

Was ist Faschismus? Eine Bewegung? Ein gleichgeschaltetes Herrschaftssystem? Für Paul Mason ist Faschismus nicht zuletzt ein Gedankengebäude. In dessen Zentrum steht eine ethnisch definierte Mehrheit, die sich als Opfer emanzipatorischer Bestrebungen sieht und alles ablehnt, was sie in ihrem Widerstand dagegen einschränken könnte: liberale Demokratie, Medien, Wissenschaft. Blickt man durch diese Linse auf den Hindunationalismus eines Narendra Modi, auf den queerfeindlichen Kurs bestimmter osteuropäischer Regierungen oder die Lügen eines Donald Trump, sind Übereinstimmungen unverkennbar. Wie der Faschismus der Zwischenkriegszeit gedeihen diese Phänomene in einer Phase tiefgreifender Umbrüche. Doch wie kann man sie aufhalten? Um diese Frage zu beantworten, bringt Mason seine großen Begabungen zum Einsatz: historische Neugier und das Talent, Theorien griffig zusammenzufassen. Die Hoffnung, man müsse nur die Unwahrheiten der Autoritären aufdecken, ist aus seiner Sicht naiv. Stattdessen müssen Liberale und Linke gemeinsam eine positive Gegenvision entwickeln und mit ökonomischen Reformen das Leben aller Menschen verbessern.

Borderline-Verhalten ist nicht nur für die Betroffenen anstrengend, zermürbend und oft zerstörerisch, sondern auch für Angehörige, Partner und Freunde. Sie laufen Gefahr, ebenfalls von den höchst prekären Verhaltensweisen der Erkrankten dominiert zu werden, und stehen täglich vor Fragen wie diesen: Wie gehe ich mit den verwirrenden Nähe-Distanz-Angeboten um? Wie schütze ich mich gegen die abwertenden und destruktiven Vorwürfe? Wie reagiere ich auf die extremen Stimmungswechsel? Und nicht zuletzt: Wie handle ich bei selbstverletzendem Verhalten? Dieser Ratgeber gibt nicht nur einen guten Einblick in die Borderline-Erkrankung und in das Fühlen der Betroffenen, die Autoren entwickeln Kapitel für Kapitel konkrete Anregungen und Tipps für das Verhalten von Angehörigen. Ziel des Buches ist es, den Angehörigen darin zu unterstützen, selbst psychisch stabil zu bleiben und dennoch hilfreich zu sein für den Erkrankten.

Drei Dinge wissen wir: Der Kapitalismus hat den Feudalismus abgelöst; seither durchlief er zyklische Tiefs, spätestens seit 2008 stottert der Motor. Was wir nicht wissen: Erleben wir eine der üblichen Krisen oder den Anbruch einer postkapitalistischen Ordnung? Paul Mason blickt auf die Daten, sichtet Krisentheorien – und sagt: Wir stehen am Anfang von etwas Neuem. Er nimmt dabei Überlegungen auf, die vor über 150 Jahren in einer Londoner Bibliothek entwickelt wurden und laut denen Wissen und intelligente Maschinen den Kapitalismus eines Tages »in die Luft sprengen « könnten. Im Zeitalter des Stahls und der Schrauben, der Hierarchien und der Knappheit war diese Vision so radikal, dass Marx sie schnell in der Schublade verschwinden ließ. In der Welt der Netzwerke, der Kooperation und des digitalen Überflusses ist sie aktueller denn je. In seinem atemberaubenden Buch führt Paul Mason durch Schreibstuben, Gefängniszellen, Flugzeugfabriken und an die Orte, an denen sich der Widerstand Bahn bricht. Mason verknüpft das Abstrakte mit dem Konkreten, bündelt die Überlegungen von Autoren wie Thomas Piketty, David Graeber, Jeremy Rifkin und Antonio Negri und zeigt, wie wir aus den Trümmern des Neoliberalismus eine gerechtere und nachhaltigere Gesellschaft errichten können.

Stellen Sie sich vor, Sie geben die Kontrolle über große Teile Ihres Lebens an ein Computerprogramm ab, von dem es heißt, es regele das Zusammenleben effektiver als jeder Staat. Was vielen als undenkbar erscheinen mag, erweist sich als bittere Realität, wenn man »Computerprogramm« durch »Markt« ersetzt. Ging der Kapitalismus bislang mit liberalen Freiheitsrechten einher, so nimmt er unter Herrschern wie Putin oder Trump zunehmend autoritäre Züge an. Können diese nun auch noch auf die Möglichkeiten künstlicher Intelligenz und digitaler Überwachung zurückgreifen, ist der Mensch als autonomes Wesen in Gefahr. Um die Werte der Aufklärung in die Zukunft zu retten, legt Paul Mason eine radikale Verteidigung des Humanismus vor. Ausgehend von Karl Marx’ Frühschriften entwirft er ein Bild vom Menschen, das ihn als ein selbstbestimmtes und zugleich gemeinschaftliches Wesen zeigt. Mason begleitet uns an die Orte vergangener und gegenwärtiger Kämpfe um Würde und Gerechtigkeit, von der Pariser Kommune über das von der Sparpolitik gebeutelte Griechenland bis hin zum Protest indigener Aktivisten auf der Inselgruppe Neukaledonien. Die Erben der Frauen und Männer auf den Barrikaden von damals, so Mason, sind die vernetzten Individuen von heute.

The Dassault Mirage IIIO was the RAAF’s first supersonic combat aircraft, and served as its front-line fighter for over 20 years. During that time, it wore a great many color schemes, official and unofficial, and was adorned with many unit and individual markings. For the first time, the evolution and details of all these color schemes and markings is described and illustrated. The colors of this elegant aircraft changed with its roles and the changes in official thinking with regard to camouflage; the infamous Aussie sense of humor added some striking and unusual markings to Mirages over the years too!The authors have researched this topic in great depth, helped by access to official and private photo collections and the memories of Mirage pilots and ground crew. The manufacturers, Dassault, have also helped with information and photos of the very first Australian Mirages. Many of these photos are being published for the very first time, and they provide a striking visual record of the many colors carried by this much-loved French Lady - "The old adage often spoken about many aircraft rings true for the Mirage, if it looks right, it probably is right. The Mirage, in my opinion, was, is, and forever will be the most beautiful aircraft ever flown" (Paul Mason).

In Live Working or Die Fighting, Paul Mason tells the story of this new working class alongside the epic history of the global labour movement, from its formation in the factories of the 1800s through its near destruction by fascism in the 1930s and up to today's anti-globalisation movement.

'The emerging rock-star of Europe's anti-austerity uprising.' Daily Telegraph 'A spirited book.' New Yorker In this remarkable and provocative book, Yanis Varoufakis, former finance minister of Greece, explodes the myth that financialisation, ineffectual regulation of banks, greed and globalisation were the root causes of both the Eurozone crisis and the global economic crisis. Rather, they are symptoms of a much deeper malaise which can be traced all the way back to the Great Crash of 1929, then on through to the 1970s: the time when a Global Minotaur was born. Today's deepening crisis in Europe is just one of the inevitable symptoms of the weakening Minotaur; of a global system which is now as unsustainable as it is imbalanced. Going beyond this, Varoufakis reveals how we might reintroduce a modicum of reason into what has become a perniciously irrational economic order. An essential account of the socio-economic events and hidden histories that have shaped the world as we now know it.

In this fully updated new edition, he recounts how the credit crunch became a full-blown financial crisis, and explores its impact on capitalist ideology and politics in our new age of austerity.

Co takiego się stało, że coraz więcej ludzi decyduje się wyjść na ulice? I czy łączy ich jakiś wspólny interes, który może sprawić, że zmieni się oblicze świata, który znamy? Paul Mason twierdzi, że tak. Wytrawnym okiem reportera BBC opisuje miejsca i przyczyny buntów, starć i okupacji. Nie szczędząc kontekstu ekonomicznego, historycznego i socjologicznego, błyskotliwie pokazuje źródła toczącej się rewolucji. Entuzjazm i ciekawość Paula Masona są po prostu zaraźliwe. „Observer” Ta książka oferuje nie tylko pogłębiony pogląd na mechanizmy globalnej polityki, ale również osobiste spojrzenie człowieka, który zajmował pierwsze miejsce na widowni teatru światowych protestów. Mamy szczęście, że BBC wciąż zatrudnia dziennikarzy, których logiczne myślenie i niezawodna dociekliwość przynosi nam taką analizę. „Camden New Journal” Mason stał się prawdopodobnie najbardziej zaangażowanym mainstreamowym dziennikarzem naszych czasów. „New Statesman” Wyjaśniając, jak powstały i rozwinęły się nowe kultury protestu, Mason jest o wiele bardziej przenikliwy i precyzyjny niż większość dziennikarzy. „Guardian”
