Frédéric Bastiat uważany jest za jednego z prekursorów austriackiej szkoły ekonomii. W swoich pracach za pośrednictwem prostych do zrozumienia przykładów analizował i krytykował poglądy socjalistów oraz społecznie szkodliwe mechanizmy funkcjonowania gospodarki. Publikacja "Rząd" skupia się na zdefiniowaniu oraz wyjaśnieniu sposobów działania tytułowego organu władzy. Nie brakuje w niej charakterystycznej dla Bastiata ironii i precyzyjnego wskazywania absurdów na stałe goszczących w systemie politycznym.

"Política e religião sempre andaram juntas: na Pré-história, na Antiguidade, desde sempre e até hoje, mesmo que sob formas não tão evidentes." "O cotidiano saturado de políticas permeadas pelas guerras culturais tem vocação beligerante contínua." "Seja lá o que for a ‘verdade’, ela nunca interessou à democracia na construção cotidiana do poder." "O homem comum não se preocupa muito com liberdade de expressão e troca facilmente qualquer regime por uma janta melhor. É um fetiche achar que o homem comum ama a democracia."

Demokratie und Rechtsstaat sind bedroht: durch Autokraten wie Putin von außen, die fürchten, auch für sie könnte das Streben der Bevölkerung nach politischer Selbstbestimmung gefährlich werden; durch Autokraten im Inneren, die auf einer Welle populistischer Erregung ins Amt kommen und den Rechtsstaat aushöhlen; durch eine lethargische und politisch gleichgültige Bürgerschaft, die zwar seit längerem in einer Demokratie angelangt ist, sich nun aber an dieser langweilt und nicht mehr engagiert. Die Welle der Demokratisierung, die 1989 losgebrochen ist, ist verebbt. Inzwischen gibt es weltweit wieder mehr autokratische Regime als Demokratien.

The 1968 presidential race was a contentious battle between Vice President Hubert Humphrey, Republican Richard Nixon, and former Alabama governor George Wallace.

Nichter upends the conventional understanding of the campaign.

Zieht sich eine liberale Gesellschaft gerade den Boden weg, auf dem sie fest stehen sollte? Ein Essay darüber, was die digitale Massenkommunikation zwischenmenschlich anrichtet. Nichts hat das Zusammenleben so umfassend verändert wie die Digitalisierung – wir denken, fühlen und streiten anders, seit wir dauervernetzt und überinformiert sind. Demokratiepolitisch bedeutsam wird dies bei der vielbeschworenen Debattenkultur. Denn die Umgangsformen der sogenannten Sozialen Medien haben längst auf die anderen Arenen übergegriffen, Politik und Journalismus spielen schon nach den neuen, erbarmungsloseren Regeln.

In 2018 Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene took to social media to share her suspicions that the California wildfires were started by 'space solar generators' which were funded by powerful, mysterious backers.

Der Dreiklang aus Demokratie, Marktwirtschaft und einer Arbeitsdisziplin, die im Rest der Welt zugleich gefürchtet und belächelt wird, hat den Ruf „Made in Germany" zum Weltkulturerbe gemacht.
