2017: Anti! Kommunismus. Struktur einer antiemanzipatorischen Ideologie
The focus is on the anti-emancipatory ideology of anticommunism. Although it was one of the most influential ideologies of the 20th century, it has hardly been researched. During the Cold War, anticommunism presented itself as the guarantor of individualism, freedom, family and tradition, and fought against the external and internal enemy in their name. And now? Does the ideological ‘glue’ simply disappear, or do its tickets and structural elements serve new and different enemies?
