      Politische Propaganda und wie wir sie durchschauen können

      5,0(1)Abgeben

      So werden wir durch Sprache manipuliert Deutschland muss „fit für die Zukunft“ gemacht, die „Wettbewerbsfähigkeit“ gesteigert werden – das ist „alternativlos“! Solche Sprüche hören wir Tag für Tag. Dass die „Reformen“ meist den Unternehmen nutzen und zu unseren Lasten gehen, wird verschwiegen. Dieses Buch entlarvt die Floskeln der Macht. Die „Kostenexplosion“ gefährdet unseren Sozialstaat, die „demografische Katastrophe“ die Zukunft des Landes und steigende „Arbeitskosten“ den Wirtschaftsstandort Deutschland. Mit solchen vermeintlichen Gewissheiten wird in Deutschland Politik gemacht, werden „Reformen“, die meistens Kürzungen für Normalbürger bedeuten, als „alternativlos“ verkauft. Doch was ist dran? Stephan Hebel und Daniel Baumann übersetzen die wichtigsten Begriffe aus dem Wörterbuch der Irreführung in leicht verständlichen Klartext und benennen Alternativen. Ein Begleiter für alle, die die Sprache der Macht durchschauen wollen.

      "The 2013 Carnegie International at Carnegie Museum of Art celebrates art as play, experimentation and dissonance, welcoming difference as an alternative to the standardization of cultural production. A major exhibition of new international art, the survey also encompasses an experimental playground project, a display and examination of the museum's permanent collection of postwar art, and a pioneering engagement with the city of Pittsburgh, putting the 2013 Carnegie International at the forefront of contemporary art and thinking. Organized by the curatorial team of Daniel Baumann, Dan Byers and Tina Kukielski, the catalogue provides rich background on each of the exhibition's components--including never-before-published pictures of projects and artworks--with an expanded artist section that features original interviews and in-depth texts on specific works by 35 artists from 19 countries in Asia, North America, South America, Europe, Africa and the Middle East: Ei Arakawa/Henning Bohl, Phyllida Barlow, Yael Bartana, Sadie Benning, Bidoun Library, Nicole Eisenman, Lara Favaretto, Vincent Fecteau, Rodney Graham, Guo Fengyi, Wade Guyton, Rokni Haerizadeh, He An, Amar Kanwar, Dinh Q.
