Historische BoekenCastAfl. 47 – Geert Mak over de ‘fluisteraar’ van Franklin RooseveltHet waren andere tijden, waarin een Amerikaanse president de democratie niet ondermijnde maar vooruithielp. Natuurlijk kwam Franklin D. Roosevelts hulp aan de Europese democratie niet alleen voort uit idealisme, maar ook uit eigenbelang: een voet tussen de deur in Europa paste in het plan van Franklin D. Roosevelt en zijn diplomatieke adviseur Harry Hopkins. In Wisselwachter beschrijft Geert Mak hun politieke avontuur in Amerika en Europa, met nadruk op de rol van Roosevelts onbekende rechterhand Hopkins. ‘Ik zag tijdens mijn onderzoek steeds meer gelijkenissen met de huidige situatie in Europa, Amerika en de wereld.’Historicus en publicist Tony Judt keek met...2025-04-141h 15

Comprendre le monde - par Pascal BonifaceNetanyahou : La force pour seul horizon ? Avec Sylvain Cypel | Entretiens géopo« La déprimante vérité n’est pas que le comportement présent d’Israël est mauvais pour les États-Unis, bien que cela soit le cas, pas même qu’il soit mauvais pour Israël lui-même, comme beaucoup d’Israéliens le reconnaissent implicitement. Non, la vérité est qu’Israël est devenu mauvais pour les juifs. », Tony Judt, 2003. Cette citation de l’historien américain Tony Judt apparaît aujourd’hui aussi vraie qu’elle ne l’était autrefois. Près d’un an après les attentats du Hamas en Israël, l'ampleur de la riposte interroge. La non-reconnais...2024-10-0226 min

Europa FelixCan EU law save European football? | Miguel Poiares MaduroIn his book 'Postwar' the historian Tony Judt wrote of the ‘largely un-European mental universe of most Europeans’. Yet, he also identified one ubiquitous exception: sports – and especially football, ‘a game without frontiers, for players, managers and spectators alike’. He even wrote: ‘What really united Europe, is football.’Whether or not that’s true, it’s hard to deny that sports are a major part of social and economic life in Europe. How sport is governed, how it is regulated and by whom, is a question that is worth taking seriously. And it’s a question on which EU law has som...2023-05-2545 min
A Conversation Before The World EndsThe Third Way: New Democrats, New Labour and a New CenterHistorian Tony Judt once said in a New York Times article in 1998 that “Each age has its Cliché. Ours in the third way”. The 1990s were always at least in popular memory considered the nonpolitical decade. The Soviet Union dissolved effectively, bringing the end to the cold war. Fukuyama wrote that “"not just ... the passing of a particular period of post-war history, but the end of history as such: That is, the end-point of mankind's ideological evolution and the universalization of Western liberal democracy as the final form of human government”. This was the birth of new world order as British Pri...2023-01-161h 30

Good and evil are inescapable categories for human thought and action, yet Christianity alone deals in these categories in its underlying philosophies. Everywhere we turn, we see this question: how can we be clean? If we don’t have Jesus’ life and death in our place, we try to figure out some way on our own… yet in our sins we continue to defy God and harm our neighbors and even ourselves, and we know something’s still wrong. In this episode we discuss some of the popular ways to...2020-03-1648 min

ALOUD @ Los Angeles Public LibraryThinking the Twentieth CenturyWhat is the power of historical perspective? How can we learn from the past to reform our society of the future?
