New publication: "Für die Freiheit" ("For Freedom")
The civil society uprising against the Corona measures
This book not only contains a profound analysis of Corona policy. It is also intended as an appeal for society to come to terms with this dark time and as a stark warning against its repetition.
The essays describe how a broad coalition of civil resistance was able to put a stop to an unprecedented series of infringements on fundamental rights and freedoms. They recall parliamentary initiatives, legal steps, but also rallies and demonstrations by concerned people from all walks of life. Despite the many aspects that the volume addresses, it leads the reader to a number of overarching conclusions, namely: that democracy requires responsible citizens, that the rule of law and democracy are interdependent, and that democracy cannot exist without pluralism. This brochure, competently and entertainingly written by experts in their field, makes a significant contribution to civic education.
The book is only avaliable in German.
