Description

The Germans have a word for it—can the rest of the world learn from them, too? Philosopher Susan Neiman joins the Prospect podcast to discuss her book Learning From the Germans. From her travels in the American South to the complex arguments over Vergangenheitsaufarbeitung, and from Hannah Arendt to the Enlightenment focus on happiness, Professor Neiman explores what it means to work with our history. Plus: Rebecca Liu and Stephanie Boland talk Rhodes Must Fall—and a strange Lithuanian tourist attraction. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
