The critical dictionary Colorful & Totalitarian by Rudolph Bauer closes many of the gaps in linguistic and conceptual under-standing that have emerged since the 1980s.
The critical dictionary "Colorful & Totalitarian" by Rudolph Bauer closes many of the gaps in linguistic and conceptual understanding that have emerged since the 1980s, resulting from the triumph of neoliberalism, which manifests itself in global financial capitalism and finds its negative expression in the phrase saying that there is "no alternative." This makes this dictionary an indispensable tool for analyzing prevailing conditions and developing counter-strategies. ... Barbarism is a chameleon. It hides, cleverly camouflages itself, and adapts. It attempts to penetrate people's minds through its language in order to manipulate people's thoughts and, with its poison, to undermine political, intellectual, and moral reservations and implant intellectual uniformity. Bauer's dictionary is a remedy for this infestation... Gunther SosnaThe brochure is full of keywords - .... Anyone who thinks they have a good grasp of these terms will be surprised by some of the new references.What an excellent idea to offer a dictionary of political keywords in alphabetical order! ... Who knows that Julian Sorel Huxley, brother of Aldous Huxley and a member and later president of the British Eugenic Society, proposed in 1945 melting the polar ice caps with atomic bombs to create a more pleasant global climate? Julian Sorel Huxley was also involved in the founding of UNESCO in 1946 and served as its Director-General until 1948.... This dictionary is not only suitable as a reference work for political terms, but it is also worth reading keyword by key-word to discover many unknown and unfamiliar things.Angelika GutscheThe dictionary deconstructs the language of hypocrisy and exposes the goal associated with the separation of appearance and reality. The recent developments surrounding the long-established ban on cynicism and the suppression of any criticism based on ominous "values" require a clear stance. Olaf Arndt
