Wenn die Politik keine Antworten auf die Herausforderungen unserer Zeit findet – könnte es an den falschen Fragen liegen? Im Fokus der Diskursreihe „Friedman im Gespräch“ des Berliner Ensembles stehen seit über 10 Jahren die existenziellen und politischen Themen der Gegenwart. 

Im Gespräch mit Gäst:innen aus Politik, Kunst und Wissenschaft sucht Autor, Publizist und Philosoph Michel Friedman regelmäßig die Auseinandersetzung. Intensiv, kontrovers, neugierig auf emanzipatorisches Potential und eindeutige Positionierungen greift er aktuelle Debatten und Ereignisse auf, um sie in Hinsicht auf das zu befragen, was unsere Gesellschaft trennt – und zusammenhält.
