Can an AI Assistant Help Us Navigate the Flood of Information? In our previous contribution, “Politics Needs to Become Boring”, we argued that serious political work does not need daily theatre. A members’ party of part-time political adults cannot live from outrage alone. It needs a programme. It needs a sober working culture. It needs […]
Because Europe Still Makes Political Responsibility National In our previous contribution, “Why a Political Party at All?”, we argued that a political party is not the mission, but the constitutional vehicle through which civic concern can become political consequence. That was the first step. But the very next question follows almost automatically: If your mission […]
Because Serious Work Does Not Need Daily Theatre In our previous contribution, “Less Personality, More Programme,” we argued that a good party platform can save us a great deal of trouble, confusion and endless repetition. A programme does not abolish political judgement. – But it gives judgement a compass. It helps members decide whether a new […]
How a Well-Thought-Out Platform Can Save Us Trouble, Confusion and Endless Repetition In our previous contribution, “Why Do We Want All of Us to Be Part-Time Politicians — and No One a Career Politician?”, we argued that politics must become everyone’s business again.

Whether the attribution is entirely certain or not, the thought itself is powerful. Indeed, it has become almost common sense. Many people would […]
From Civic Alarm to Political Consequence In our previous contribution “From paralysis to action – a stepwise approach” we described a familiar but deeply uncomfortable situation. The words are spoken. The warning signs are there. The scientific findings are published. The declarations, speeches, targets and solemn promises are present as well. And yet, the necessary action […]
Humanity faces major challenges. This is a well-known fact. We have pointed it out repeatedly in our last series “Why we need the Europeans of the Planet”, published on Friday, 2026-07-10. There is no need to repeat ourselves here again. Nor do we stand alone with our political demands. Admittedly, there is a distinct and […]
Dies ist das fünfte von fünf Kapiteln unserer Reihe „Warum wir die ‚Europäer für den Planeten‘ brauchen “, die jeden Freitag erscheint. Kapitel 4: „Das Ende des automatischen Fortschritts? – Warum immer mehr Menschen spüren, dass etwas nicht stimmt“, haben wir am letzten Freitag veröffentlicht.
