A friend from Berlin asked how Arendt\u2019s analysis of German history might relate to Eralp\u2019s election victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One word struck me like a bolt of lightning: concordance!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea: following the exploratory talks, Eralp could form a &#8220;concordance government\u201d that incorporates all relevant political forces! If she were to truly do this, drawing upon the strength of her own individuality, it could mark a historic turning point for all of Germany and Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With such a move she would command the attention of the global public even more than Zohran Mamdani did in New York. Eralp could use this action to transform the prevailing &#8220;everything\u2019s shit&#8221; mood (as described by the author Juli Zeh) in Germany into a positive, practical perspective. And last but not least, it would be a powerful starting point for demystifying\u2014and dismantling the allure of\u2014the AfD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>More <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.public-secrets.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Public Secrets<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Translation <\/strong>Paula Boslau<br><strong>Image<\/strong> Daniel H\u00e4ni, photo: Enno Schmidt<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What do you see?
