“Ah, Europe!” In 1987, Hans Magnus Ensensberger could still provide his “travel notes” with an optimistic exclamation mark. 20 years later, the pan -European political optimism decreased. The problems of the United Europe are now occupied by one of the main places in the works of the largest German philosopher and sociologist. Along with this, the collection includes two texts about the ongoing changes in the public sphere: we are talking in supporting the high -quality nationwide press of Germany and we are talking about creating conditions that allow the widest layers of citizens to participate in the discussion of the most important problems of society and influence the relevant solutions (about the “epistemic dimension of modern democracy”) – a speech that attracted great attention. Finally, the reader will find brilliant essays here about the outstanding contemporaries of the author (R. Rorty, J. Derrida, R. Dvorkin, V. Abendrot), demonstrating the highest professionalism and the huge erudition of Habermas.
