This time we are talking about a subject that particularly many people would rather avoid – and that makes it all the more urgent: the closing of ranks between radical left-wing identity politics and Islamist activism, which is increasingly permeating the academic world and challenging our open society. Our guests, Franziska Sittig and Noam Petri, have written a wake-up call with their book “Die intellektuelle Selbstzerstörung – Wie der Westen seine eigene Zukunft verspielt”. They analyse how this ideological alliance not only undermines free thinking, but also fuels antisemitism – and that affects not only Jews, but shakes the very foundations of our free and democratic order.
