It is difficult to ignore the resurgence of white nationalist movements in the United States, many of which employ symbols and slogans from Greco-Roman antiquity. A long-established neo-Nazi website incorporates an image of the Parthenon into its logo, and rioters wore Spartan helmets in the January 6, 2021, attack on the United States Capitol. These juxtapositions may appear incongruous to people who associate the ancient world with enlightened political ideals and sophisticated philosophical inquiry.

Political history often appears to be driven by ideology, strategy, or the cold arithmetic of power. Yet behind the speeches, alliances, and threats stand people whose inner world was formed long before they entered public office. This audiobook reveals the hidden psychological engines of geopolitics: childhood wounds disguised as doctrines, unacknowledged fears enlarged into national myths, infantile rivalries inflated into global crises.

What if the conflicts tearing apart your relationships, your workplace, your community—are not your fault? For decades, we have treated aggression as a personal failing. We blame “difficult people,” prescribe anger management, and search for the villain in every dispute. But groundbreaking research reveals a startling truth: conflict escalation is often a property of networks, not individuals.

When states die, there are massive consequences. Somalia's death in 1991 created a safe haven for criminal non-state actors and has unsettled the Horn of Africa for decades. When the Iraqi state was dismantled in 2003, a similar set of consequences plagued the Middle East and the international...

Helmuth James von Moltke, am 11. März 1907 auf dem Familiengut im schlesischen Kreisau geboren, war einer der wenigen, die diese Eigenschaften mit sich brachten. Anders als die meisten Mitglieder der bürgerlich-konservativen und der militärischen Opposition gegen Hitler war er ein kompromissloser Gegner des Nationalsozialismus von allem Anfang an. Und er war der Spiritus Rector des Kreisauer Kreises, jener Widerstandsgruppe, die sich wie keine zweite in einem jahrelangen mühevollen Diskussionsprozess auf ein detailliertes Programm für eine Neuordnung nach Hitler verständigte.
