Can solidarity still work today?

In times of Corona, we need social cohesion more than ever. In this crisis situation everyone is asked to take responsibility for others as well, everyone has to participate if it is a matter of bearing the economic consequences together. But for the last twenty years, a development has emerged in our society that has split our public into partial interest groups.

What else connects us when fake news no longer allows truth, when values ​​have become controversial, when opinions count instead of arguments, when the social divides us more and more? Only with solidarity will we cope with the tasks of the future, and only with solidarity can democratic rights be protected. But how is solidarity still possible today? Lukas Bärfuss, author and Büchner Prize winner, talks about this in our podcast.

Information on the last event in the DenkArt series (Solidarity_What role do emotions, rules, infrastructures play? On Tuesday, June 8, 2021, 7.30 p.m.) is available here.
