New blog post by Dr. Gregor Walter-Drop: “9/11.” The Original Catastrophe of the 21st Century.
A new post by Dr. Gregor Walter-Drop, Executive Director of the Rhineland-Palatinate Peace Academy, has been published on the Peace Academy blog:
“9/11.” The Founding Catastrophe of the 21st Century.
This year marks the 25th anniversary of “9/11.” And yet it already seems much further away. So much has happened since 2001 that a lasting sense of political breathlessness has set in. From this perspective, September 11, 2001, seems to belong to a different era—and to a completely different world. That’s not wrong. And yet it’s worth taking a look back, because there are clear connections between the attacks in New York and many of the calamities that concern us today.
