Paul Edward Gottfried Bücher

Multikulturalismus prägt die moderne westliche Zivilisation, und Paul Gottfried analysiert dieses Phänomen im politischen und religiösen Kontext. Die neue politische Elite legt weniger Wert auf staatliche Wirtschaftslenkung und soziale Umverteilungen, sondern strebt die Kontrolle über Meinungen und Redefreiheit an. Eine von den Medien verstärkte Feindschaft gegenüber traditionellen christlichen Werten kennzeichnet den „therapeutischen Staat“, den Gottfried beschreibt. In den protestantisch geprägten westlichen Gesellschaften hat eine aufdringliche political correctness das traditionelle Christentum in eine aggressive Zivilreligion verwandelt. Religion wird zunehmend auf Sozialarbeit reduziert, während das liberale Christentum des späten 20. Jahrhunderts die „Politik der Schuld“ propagiert. Etablierte weiße Kirchen transformieren metaphysische Schuld in politische Selbsterniedrigung, wobei Opferrollen mit rassischen, kulturellen und lifestyle-basierten Minderheiten identifiziert werden. Diese Stilisierung ist ein Merkmal des therapeutischen Staates. Zudem warnt der Autor vor einem amerikanischen „Empire“, das europäische Werte beeinflussen und verändern möchte. Europäer stellen die aus dem amerikanischen Protestantismus entstandene multikulturelle Bewegung als notwendig für die Demokratie dar und übernehmen autoritär amerikanische Vorstellungen. Gottfried argumentiert, dass eine sinnvolle Abkehr von der schädlichen „Politik der

From inauspicious beginnings, Hawksmoor has become a restaurant institution. Both the company and the restaurants have won numerous awards, and the distinctly British food, revolving around charcoal-grilled steaks and seafood, has made Hawksmoor amongst the busiest restaurants in the country. Now with seven restaurants, including a dedicated cocktail bar, Hawksmoor brings you an essential read for anyone interested in the realities of restaurants, revealing the trials and tribulations faced along the way, as well as the people, places and plates that have made it so successful. From refined, tweaked and perfected Hawksmoor favorites like Mac ’n’ Cheese to the Steak Slice that caused a social media storm, and from a light and elegant Lobster Slaw to big carnivorous sharing feasts, this book will make you look at the classics anew and fall in love with a whole new collection of dishes for the first time. Bringing together recipes from all the Hawksmoor restaurants, and with insights like how to cook the titans of steaks like the Tomahawk, and the intricate cocktail spec sheets used by the bar staff, Restaurants & Recipes is the ultimate bible for booze and beefy perfection—an immaculately researched, sometimes irreverent look into Hawksmoor’s obsessions and inspirations.

At the beginning of the '90s, conservative commentators have increasingly focused on the growing fragmentation of the American political & intellectual Right. From the early postwar years, when a small band of intellectual dissidents emerged in response to the Soviet threat, to the '80s & the Reagan years, when the coalition of journalists, politicians & lobbyists known as the New Right reached its height of influence, the conservative movement has always been a complex, shifting set of ideologies & factions. In this revised, updated study, Paul Gottfried provides an insider's look at the factions & controversies, the personalities & ideologies, the rival journals & institutes. He argues that the scope of this war on the Right has been misrepresented by journalists, who've been sympathetic to the moderates & have consistently downplayed the strength & intelligence of the paleoconservatives. A striking feature of the book is a detailed, well-informed exposition of conservative foundations & think tanks--revealing who funds whom & who controls whom--information that has never before appeared in print. Gottfried discusses the implications of the '92 electoral campaign for the future of the Right: from paleocon Pat Buchanan's controversial bid for the Republican nomination to the migration of several leading neocons over to Bill Clinton's camp. Certain to spark both attention & controversy, this book is required reading for anyone who wants to understand a complex conservative landscape & its prospects.
