IN SEARCH OF BERLIN : the story of a reinvented city John Kampfner Atlantic Books, Limited, S.l, 2023

'A masterful portrait of one of the world's greatest cities... A must-read' PETER FRANKOPAN'Such a delightful read' KATJA HOYER, The TimesNo other city has had so many lives, survived so many disasters and has reinvented itself so many times. No other city is like Berlin.Ever since John Kampfner was a young journalist in Communist East Berlin, he hasn't been able to get the city out of his mind. It is a place tortured by its past, obsessed with memories, a place where traumas are unleashed and the traumatised have gathered.Over the past four years Kampfner has walked the length and breadth of Berlin, delving into the archives, and talking to historians and writers, architects and archaeologists. He clambers onto a fallen statue of Lenin; he rummages in boxes of early Medieval bones; he learns about the cabaret star so outrageous she was thrown out of the city.Berlin has been a military barracks, industrial powerhouse, centre of learning, hotbed of decadence - and the laboratory for the worst experiment in horror known to man. Now a city of refuge, it is home to 180 nationalities, and more than a quarter of the population has a migrant background. Berlin never stands still. It is never satisfied. But it is now the irresistible capital to which the world is gravitating.In Search of Berlin is an 800-year story, a dialogue between past and present; it is a new way of looking at this turbulent and beguiling city on its never-ending journey of reinvention.

Blair's Wars Kampfner, John Gardners Books, London, cop.2004

No Prime Minister in modern times has led Britain into as many wars as Tony Blair. In seven years in office he has committed soldiers to action in Kosovo, in Operation Desert Fox against Iraq, in Sierra Leone and Afghanistan -- and, most controversially, in the final battle with Saddam Hussein in 2003. It has been a dramatic course of action for a man who, until he won the 1997 General Election, showed only a rudimentary understanding of the workings of foreign policy. Combining page-turning narrative and revelation with an analysis of the philosophy underlying his adventures abroad, BLAIR'S WARS shows how this government has sought to be at the forefront of a new and turbulent world order. Putting the reader into the 'smoke-filled rooms' of Whitehall and Washington where the real decision-making takes place, John Kampfner draws on his unparalleled contacts within and outside government to provide a compelling account of the tensions, rivalries, deal-making and back-stabbing that have accompanied inexorable acquisition of foreign-policy control.

Freedom for Sale : Why the World Is Trading Democracy for Security John Kampfner Basic Civitas Books, Hachette Book Group, New York, 2010

Democratic liberalism v. authoritarianism -- the ideological divide that defined the twentieth century. But when the cold war ended, "the end of history"; was proclaimed. Soon the fire of freedom would burn worldwide, the experts said. And where markets were freed, human rights would inevitably follow. Or not. In the last twenty years, nations including India, Russia, China and the United Arab Emirates have disproved the idea that capitalism and democracy are inextricably linked. Emerging middle classes have proven themselves all too willing to sacrifice certain democratic rights -- including free speech, an open media, and free elections -- in exchange for prosperity. But they are not alone. We are all doing it. Alarmingly, Western democracy has adopted some of the attributes of that authoritarianism. Combining boots on the ground reporting with incisive analysis, award-winning journalist John Kampfner describes this alarming trend -- one which has only been exacerbated by the global economic meltdown -- and what citizens must do to counter it.

Freedom For Sale : How We Made Money and Lost Our Liberty John Kampfner Simon & Schuster UK, Simon & Schuster, [N.p.], 2009

Why Is It That So Many People Around The World Appear Willing To Give Up Freedoms In Return For Either Security Or Prosperity? For The Past 60 Years It Had Been Assumed That Capitalism Was Intertwined With Liberal Democracy, That The Two Not Just Thrived Together But Needed Each Other To Survive. But What Happens When Both Are Undermined? Governments Around The World -- Whether They Fall Into The Authoritarian Or The Democratic Camp -- Have Drawn Up A New Pact With Their Peoples. These Are Its Terms: Repression Is Selective, Confined To Those Who Openly Challenge The Status Quo, Who Publicly Go Out Of Their Way To 'cause Trouble'. The Number Of People Who Fall Into That Category Is Actually Very Few. The Rest Of The Population Can Enjoy Freedom To Travel, To Live More Or Less As They Wish, And To Make And Spend Their Money. This Is The Difference Between Public Freedoms And Privatefreedoms. We Choose Different Freedoms We Are Prepared To Cede. We All Do It. Freedom For Sale Will Set A New Agenda. Mixing Narrative From Different Countries Around The World, It Breaks New Ground In Revealing The Extent To Which The Old Assumptions And Securities Have Died. It Will Crucially Ask Why So Many Intelligent And Ambitious Citizens Around The World, Particularly Among The Young, Seemed Prepared To Sacrifice Freedom Of The Press And Freedom Of Speech In Their Quest For Wealth. A New World Order May Well Be Upon Us, And In This Gripping And Devastating Book John Kampfner Reveals How It May Just Be Too Late To Stop It.

Libertad en venta John Kampfner lineasdesaparecidas, 2011

¿Por qué vendemos democracia a cambio de seguridad?** Varios gobiernos de todo el mundo han hecho un nuevo pacto con sus pueblos: la represión se limita a unos cuantos ciudadanos que cuestionan abiertamente el statu quo. El resto de la población puede gozar de libertad para vivir más o menos como desee, y para amasar y gastar dinero. Ésa es la diferencia entre las libertades públicas y las libertades privadas. Todos elegimos las distintas libertades que estamos dispuestos a ceder. Todos lo hacemos. Libertad en venta* marca una nueva pauta. Plantea la pregunta crucial de por qué tantos ciudadanos inteligentes y ambiciosos en todo el mundo se han mostrado dispuestos a sacrificar la libertad de prensa y la libertad de expresión en su afán de enriquecerse. Este libro no se centra en los regímenes tiránicos que gobiernan pistola en mano donde el estado es inequívocamente una fuerza malévola y no hay cabida para el mínimo acuerdo. No trata de Zimbabwe ni de Corea del Norte o Birmania. En estos países no existe un pacto entre el gobierno y el pueblo, sino un mero instinto de supervivencia. Se interesa por el contrario en aquellos países que, con independencia de sus matices políticos, han aceptado los términos de la globalización e intenta dar solución a una pregunta clave: ¿por qué se cambia con tanta facilidad libertades por seguridad o prosperidad? ¿Por qué vendemos democracia a cambio de seguridad? Los políticos siempre han perseguido por instinto el poder y la forma de conservarlo, por medios honrados o delictivos. Menos comprensibles son las razones por las que muchos —tanto en estados autoritarios como democráticos— sucumbimos, y por qué tan pocos nos preguntamos por qué lo hacemos. Sean cuales sean los sistemas en los que vivimos, nuestras prioridades se parecen más de lo que nunca admitiríamos.Estado : LDSVersión : 1.0Páginas : 299EPL Id : 40071624Autores : John Kampfner

Warum Deutschland es besser macht. Ein bewundernder Blick von außen John Kampfner; Barbara Steckhan; Thomas Wollermann Rowohlt E-Book, Onleihe. E-Book, Erscheinungsort nicht ermittelbar, 2021

Die Deutschen sind Meister der Selbstkritik. Dabei macht das Land es besser, als viele denken, sagt John Kampfner. Der Autor ist Brite und zeigt, wie sehr sich das Deutschland-Bild im Ausland in den letzten Jahren verändert hat. Die deutsche Politik hält er für vorbildlich: Finanz- und Flüchtlingskrise - kaum ein anderes Land navigiere so erfolgreich und souverän durch schwierige Zeiten. Sogar die Corona-Bekämpfung hält er für größtenteils erfolgreich. Während anderswo autoritäre Politiker und Populisten regieren, sei Deutschland ein Bollwerk aus Anstand und Stabilität. Den Grund dafür sieht Kampfner vor allem in der soliden Politik Angela Merkels und in der kritischen Auseinandersetzung mit der eigenen Vergangenheit; darin liegt für ihn der Schlüssel zu einer sensiblen Demokratie. Eine erfrischend andere Geschichte der Bundesrepublik. «Ausgezeichnet und provokant, ein leidenschaftliches, aktuelles Buch.»Sunday Times

Por qué los alemanes lo hacen mejor John Kampfner Capitán Swing Libros, Ensayo, 2023

Surgido de un conjunto de ciudades-estado hace 150 años, ningún otro país ha tenido una historia tan turbulenta como Alemania ni ha disfrutado de tanta prosperidad en tan poco tiempo. Hoy en día, cuando gran parte del mundo sucumbe al autoritarismo y la democracia es socavada desde su corazón, Alemania se erige como baluarte de la decencia y la estabilidad. Mezclando viajes personales y anécdotas con convincentes pruebas empíricas, se trata de una exploración crítica y entretenida del país que muchos en Occidente todavía aman odiar. Planteando importantes cuestiones para nuestro panorama post-Brexit, Kampfner se pregunta por qué, a pesar de sus defectos, Alemania se ha convertido en un modelo a imitar por los demás, mientras que Gran Bretaña no consigue afrontar los retos contemporáneos. En parte memoria, en parte historia, en parte diario de viaje, 'Por qué los alemanes lo hacen mejor' es un retrato rico e ingenioso de un país eternamente fascinante.

Свобода на продажу : как мы разбогатели - и лишились независимости Кампфнер, Джон Астрель: CORPUS, 2012

Пер. с англ. Станислава Львовского. “Демократия перед теми, кто к ней относится серьезно, ставит почти неразрешимые проблемы, а тем, кто ее ненавидит, открывает почти неограниченные возможности”, — отмечал Вацлав Гавел. Почему столь многие из нас готовы поступиться “громкими правами” в обмен на процветание и безопасность, часто иллюзорные? И возможен ли свободный рынок без демократии, а демократия — без свободы? Над этими и другими трудными вопросами предлагает задуматься известный английский журналист Джон Кампфнер, изучивший политический опыт Сингапура, Китая, России, Объединенных Арабских Эмиратов, Индии, Италии, Великобритании и США.

Perché i tedeschi lo fanno meglio Kampfner, John Garzanti, 2021

«Un libro eccellente.» La Repubblica - Timothy Garton Ash «Scrupolosissimo, corretto, meditato.» The Times «Eccezionale e provocatorio» Sunday Times «Accurato e tempestivo» Financial Times Nessun altro paese al mondo, al pari della Germania, ha attraversato in un brevissimo arco di tempo una storia tanto turbolenta, riuscendo al contempo a raggiungere così alti livelli di ricchezza. E oggi, ad appena 150 anni dall’unificazione, mentre nel mondo trionfano nuovi autoritarismi e la democrazia sembra sempre più indebolita, si erge come baluardo di moralità e stabilità. Unendo esperienze e aneddoti personali a efficaci evidenze empiriche, questo libro è un’esplorazione critica e divertente di una nazione che molti, in Occidente, ancora fraintendono. John Kampfner solleva interrogativi decisivi sulle prospettive europee post-Brexit e si chiede perché, nonostante i difetti, la Germania resti ancora oggi il modello da emulare mentre altri paesi – Italia inclusa – sembrano fallire le sfide della modernità. Parte racconto personale, parte diario di viaggio, parte resoconto storico, Perché i tedeschi lo fanno meglio è il ricco e acuto ritratto di un paese dal fascino eterno.
