About this listen
Ein großes Hörbuch von gewaltiger intellektueller Bandbreite, neugierig, visionär, und ein Plädoyer für die Macht des direkten Handelns.
David Graeber, der bedeutendste Anthropologe unserer Zeit, und David Wengrow, einer der führenden Archäologen, entfalten in ihrer großen Menschheitsgeschichte, wie sich die Anfänge unserer Zivilisation mit der Zukunft der Menschheit neu denken und verbinden lässt. Sie revidieren unser bisheriges Menschenbild und erzählen Menschheitsgeschichte, wie sie noch nie erzählt wurde. Über Jahrtausende hinweg, lange vor der Aufklärung, wurde schon jede erdenkliche Form sozialer Organisation erfunden und nach Freiheit, Wissen und Glück gestrebt. Graeber und Wengrow zeigen, wie stark die indigene Perspektive das westliche Denken beeinflusst hat und wie wichtig ihre Rückgewinnung ist. Lebendig und überzeugend ermuntern sie uns, mutiger und entschiedener für eine andere Zukunft der Menschheit einzutreten und sie durch unser Handeln zu verändern.
David Graeber war der bedeutendste Kulturanthropologe seiner Generation, der wichtigste Vordenker der Occupy-Bewegung und ein weltbekannter Intellektueller. Er lebte seine Ideen von sozialer Gerechtigkeit und Befreiung, gab den Unterdrückten Hoffnung und inspirierte zahllose andere zur Nachfolge. Am 2. September 2020 starb David Graeber völlig überraschend im Alter von 59 Jahren in Venedig; drei Wochen zuvor hatten er und David Wengrow Anfänge. Eine neue Geschichte der Menschheit beendet. Vor mehr als zehn Jahren hatten beide Autoren begonnen an diesem Opus magnum außerhalb ihrer akademischen Verpflichtungen aufgenommen: Ein Anthropologe und ein Archäologe beleben mit dem heute vorhandenen Quellenmaterial den großen Dialog über die menschliche Geschichte wieder. Dieses Meisterwerk ist das Vermächtnis von David Graeber.

'Anfänge. Eine neue Geschichte der Menschheit' ist eine Synthese neuerer Forschungen. Dieses Buch verwirft alte und überholte Annahmen über die Vergangenheit, erneuert unsere intellektuellen und spirituellen Ressourcen und enthüllt auf wundersame Weise die Zukunft der Menschheit als offenes Ende. Es ist das erfrischendste Buch, das ich in den letzten Jahren gelesen habe.
-- Pankaj Mishra, Autor von Das Zeitalter des Zorns: Eine Geschichte der Gegenwart
Indem Graeber und Wengrow die neuesten archäologischen Forschungen und die jüngsten anthropologischen Aufzeichnungen durchforsten, zeigen uns die Autoren eine Welt, die vielfältiger und unerwarteter ist, als wir sie kannten, und offener und freier, als wir sie uns vorstellen. Dies ist Sozialtheorie im großen, altmodischen Sinne, vorgetragen mit fesselnder Geschwindigkeit und einem erheiternden Gefühl der Entdeckung.
-- Corey Robin
Das ist kein Buch. Das ist ein intellektuelles Fest. Es gibt kein einziges Kapitel, das (spielerisch) angepasste und eingeschliffene intellektuelle Überzeugungen umstößt. Es ist tiefgründig, mühelos ikonoklastisch, faktisch rigoros und angenehm zu lesen.
-- Nassim Nicholas Taleb, Autor von Der schwarze Schwan
Ein faszinierendes Werk, das uns dazu bringt, die Natur der menschlichen Fähigkeiten neu zu überdenken. Es handelt von den stolzesten Momente unserer eigenen Geschichte, unserem Austausch und unserer Schuld gegenüber indigenen Kulturen und ihren vergessenen Intellektuellen. Herausfordernd und erhellend.
-- Noam Chomsky
Graeber und Wengrow entlarven Klischees über die weit zurückreichende Geschichte der Menschheit, um unserem Denken zu erschließen, was in der Zukunft möglich ist. Es gibt kein vitaleres, kein unserer Zeit angemesseneres Projekt.
-- Jaron Lanier, Autor von Anbruch einer neuen Zeit

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu.

Story5 out of 5 stars 3,694
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Over the next five years, millions of more Americans are expected to take Ozempic and other GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, which are rapidly being recognized as the miracle drugs of this century. If you’re not on them, you’ll probably know someone who is. What are the implications of the widespread use of these drugs, both on our bodies and our society? In this show, you’ll meet people across America who are either taking the jab or thinking about it, and the shocking intentional and unintentional results they are seeing.

Will Johnnie Veal—convicted of the murder of two police officers in 1970—be granted parole after 50 years in prison? How can he convince the parole board he’s reformed when he insists he’s innocent? What is prison time even supposed to accomplish? These are the questions that propel The Parole Room forward as it builds toward Johnnie’s 20th parole hearing—after 19 rejections.
