Link! I should buy the German version and see if I can read some of it. The last time I tried that was with Faust after my German II semester in college ... terrible failure.

The deeper we go back, the worse it becomes, from authoritarianism to communism and totalitarianism. It is a fascinating topic. I describe it in detail in my book which I published last year in German. I use the free time to translate it to English now.
