  • - En personlig rejse
    af Timothy Garton Ash
    238,95 - 293,95 kr.

    Europa. En personlig rejse bygger på et halvt århundredes rejser og erfaringer og fortæller historien om Europa i slutningen af det 20. og begyndelsen af det 21. århundrede. Det er historien om, hvordan vores verdensdel efter i 1945 at være sluppet fri af krigens helvede, langsomt rejste sig igen og blev genopbygget, befriet og forenet og nærmede sig idealet om at blive ”helt, frit og fredeligt”. Og derefter snublede. Bogen er fyldt med mennesker, samtaler og anekdoter, der fremstilles med menneskelighed, indsigt og engagement. Det er også en meget personlig beretning: Timothy Garton Ash har brugt en menneskealder på at studere og tænke over Europa, og denne bog er i sig selv fuld af levet liv, lige fra hans fars oplevelse af D-dag til sit eget møde med Frankrig som ung, interviews med polske værftsarbejdere, albanske guerillasoldater og vrede unge i Paris’ fattigste kvarterer, men også rådgivning af regeringsledere og præsidenter i Storbritannien, Europa og USA. Europa. En personlig historie er både den enestående historie om en tid med større fremskridt end nogensinde og en klarsynet beretning om de mange ting, der gik galt, lige fra finanskrisen i 2008 til krigen i Ukraine. Den slutter med en stærk appel til alle det store, gamle kontinents borgere om at forstå og forsvare det, vi i fællesskab har udrettet.

    One of the great political writers of our time offers a manifesto for global free speech in the digital age

  • af Timothy Garton Ash
    223,95 kr.

    "We, the free, face a daunting opportunity. Previous generations could only dream of a free world. Now we can begin to make it." In his welcome alternative to the rampant pessimism about Euro-American relations, award-winning historian Timothy Garton Ash shares an inspiring vision for how the United States and Europe can collaborate to promote a free world.At the start of the twenty-first century, the West has plunged into crisis. Europe tries to define itself in opposition to America, and America increasingly regards Europe as troublesome and irrelevant. What is to become of what we used to call "the free world"? Part history, part manifesto, Free World offers both a scintillating assessment of our current geopolitical quandary and a vitally important argument for the future of liberty and the shared values of the West.
