War Is a Force that Gives Us Meaning

War Is a Force that Gives Us Meaning

Chris Hedges

Als erfahrener Kriegskorrespondent hat Chris Hedges Hinterhalte in Mittelamerika, eine Inhaftierung im Sudan und eine Prügelstrafe durch die saudische Militärpolizei überlebt.

Basierend auf seinen eigenen Erfahrungen und der Kampfliteratur von Homer bis Michael Herr zeigt Hedges, wie der Krieg nicht nur diejenigen an der Front, sondern ganze Gesellschaften verführt, die Politik korrumpiert, die Kultur zerstört und die grundlegendsten menschlichen Wünsche pervertiert. „War Is a Force That Gives Us Meaning“ mischt nüchternen Realismus mit tiefgreifenden moralischen und philosophischen Einsichten und ist ein Werk von schrecklicher Kraft und erlösender Klarheit, dessen Wahrheiten noch nie so notwendig waren.
