New series “Vertrauensfragen” in the Frankfurter Rundschau initiated by Hendrik Simon
Democracy thrives on debate – if it serves the joint search for solutions. There is often a problem with this cooperation. The new FR series “Vertrauensfragen”, initiated by Hendrik Simon (Research Institute Social Cohesion (RISC) Frankfurt location at Research Centre Normative Orders of Goethe University), examines why this is the case and how we can do better. The trust questions expand the spectrum of the Frankfurter Rundschau and are intended to build on the “Friedensfragen” series that has been running since 2022. Since the first weeks of the Russian war against Ukraine, this model has been looking for ways out of the logic of war and towards peace. Both series are to be published on a regular basis in future.
The guest article “Der demokratische Streit kann Welten umstürzen, aber er nimmt die Gesellschaft mit” by Nicole Deitelhoff, Christopher Daase and Hendrik Simon, as well as the interview “Sonntagsreden werden den gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalt nicht retten” with Hendrik Simon were published to mark the launch of the “Vertrauensfragen” series.
