The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution. In these moments, fear is contagious, but so is courage:

»Ein solch feudalistisches Geldverhältnis halte ich für unvereinbar mit den Grundwerten einer demokratischen Ordnung.« @katharinapistor.bsky.social im Interview mit Stephan Kaufmann (@nd-aktuell.de) über die Geldverfassung der Gegenwart (Adorno-Vorlesungen 2025). www.nd-aktuell.de/artikel/1195...

On the blog, Prof Neil Buchanan recounts how faculty disempowerment in Florida laid the groundwork for the broader assault on academic freedom and indeed higher education, first in the Sunshine State's war on woke, and then nationwide. 👇

Come join us this evening @nyhistory.bsky.social for a lost history of the 1920s -- and the paths that got us through eerily similar democratic crisis a century ago. With the great David Blight, 6:30 pm at 77th & CPW. @simonandschuster.bsky.social

Thanks for posting this

Important reminder that history is not deterministic. There is no one-way road to fascism, but neither one out of it. There is hope in the plurality of (well-funded) resistance. What gave me pause, however, was the role of media then and now.

Zentralbanken dienen nicht den Menschen, sondern dem Finanzwesen. Es ist Zeit für Reformen, schreibt @katharinapistor.bsky.social

My latest on Project Syndicate. Given that institutions like central banks are under attack, we might just as well rethink what they should do in a democracy www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/c...

At Balkinization, @katharinapistor.bsky.social and David Pozen argue that if Columbia is going to review its University Senate, the same scrutiny should be applied to the more powerful, less democratic components of Columbia’s governance regime.

Es ist im Grunde schon eine Festlegung in der Sache. Nach dem Grundgesetz sind verfassungswidrige Parteien keine Konkurrenten. Wer sie Konkurrenten nennt, beantwortet damit für sich die Frage der Verfassungsfeindlichkeit
