    The Death of Truth , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 225min
    From a Pulitzer Prize-winning critic comes an impassioned critique of the West’s retreat from reason.We live in a time when the very idea of objective truth is mocked and discounted by the US President. Discredited conspiracy theories and ideologies have resurfaced, proven science is once more up for debate and Russian propaganda floods our screens. The wisdom of the crowd has usurped research and expertise, and we are each left clinging to the beliefs that best confirm our biases.How did truth become an endangered species? This decline began decades ago, and in The Death of Truth, former New York Times critic Michiko Kakutani takes a penetrating look at the cultural forces that contributed to this gathering storm. In social media and literature, television, academia and political campaigns, Kakutani identifies the trends - originating on both the right and the left - that have combined to elevate subjectivity over factuality, science and common values. And she returns us to the words of the great critics of authoritarianism, writers like George Orwell and Hannah Arendt, whose work is newly and eerily relevant.With remarkable erudition and insight, Kakutani offers a provocative diagnosis of our current condition and presents a path forward for our truth-challenged times. ungekürzt.

    After the Music Stopped: The Financial Crisis, the Response, and the Work Ahead , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 950min
    Named one of the 10 best books of 2013 by Michiko Kakutani and the New York Times Book Review Alan S. Blinder - esteemed Princeton professor, Wall Street Journal columnist, and former vice chairman of the Federal Reserve Board under Alan Greenspan - is one of our wisest and most clear-eyed economic thinkers. In After the Music Stopped, he delivers a masterful narrative of how the worst economic crisis in postwar American history happened, what the government did to fight it, and what we must do to recover from it. With bracing clarity, Blinder chronicles the perfect storm of events beginning in 2007, from the bursting of the housing bubble to the implosion of the bond bubble, and how events in the U.S. spread throughout the interconnected global economy. Truly comprehensive and eminently listenable, After the Music Stopped is the essential book about the financial crisis. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Graham Vick.

    Der Tod der Wahrheit
    Das postfaktische Zeitalter ist angebrochen. In einer scharfsinnigen, geistreichen Gegenwartsanalyse deckt Michiko Kakutani historische und kulturelle Ursprünge einer Gesellschaft auf, in der die Wahrheit an Bedeutung eingebüßt hat. Vor diesem Hintergrund entlarvt sie Trump als die logische Konsequenz seiner kulturellen Voraussetzungen.Dieses Buch schürft tiefer als die bisherigen Beschreibungen der Ära Trump. Mithilfe von Philosophie und Kulturwissenschaft ergründet die einflussreichste Literaturkritikerin der USA erhellend historische und soziale Fundamente eines gesamtgesellschaftlichen Phänomens, das die modernen Demokratien bedroht. Denn »Fake News« und alternative Fakten sind Symptome eines allgemein vorherrschenden Bedeutsamkeitsverlusts der Wahrheit. Resultierend aus dem Erbe postmoderner Theorien und dem um sich greifenden Narzissmus, den das Internet befeuert, erscheint Trump nunmehr als personengewordener Ausdruck und Symbolfigur des postfaktischen Zeitalters.Ein virtuoses Manifest, das die Macht des Wortes und der Sprache betont, die die moderne Informationskultur gestalten.

    On China
    "Fascinating, shrewd . . . The book deftly traces the rhythms and patterns of Chinese history."-Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times In this sweeping and insightful history, Henry Kissinger turns for the first time at book length to a country he has known intimately for decades and whose modern relations with the West he helped shape. On China illuminates the inner workings of Chinese diplomacy during such pivotal events as the initial encounters between China and tight line modern European powers, the formation and breakdown of the Sino-Soviet alliance, the Korean War, and Richard Nixon's historic trip to Beijing. With a new final chapter on the emerging superpower's twenty-first-century role in global politics and economics, On China provides historical perspective on Chinese foreign affairs from one of the premier statesmen of our time.
