Zo slaagt hij erin om dit complexe continent door te lichten en de opties voor de toekomst af te wegen. Zoals altijd intelligent, verrassend en hoogst leesbaar.<\/p>\n<p>zondagskinderen<br \/>\nEU-correspondent Caroline de Gruyter toont in haar jongste boek Zondagskinderen hoe Europa na meer dan tachtig jaar van vrede opnieuw is gaan nadenken over oorlog en bewapening. Het ideaal van \u2018Nooit meer oorlog\u2019 lijkt opeens niet meer zo vanzelfsprekend. Wat doet dit met ons wereldbeeld en wat kunnen we daarvan leren? Karel Verhoeven (De Standaard) praat met de auteurs en onderzoekt of deze twee experten het eens zijn over de staat van Europa en of ze dezelfde oplossingen voor ogen hebben.<\/p>\n<p>crisis<br \/>\n\u2018Never waste a good crisis.\u2019 Deze uitspraak wordt toegewezen aan Winston Churchill, die het zou hebben gezegd bij de oprichting van de Verenigde Naties. Het woord crisis is afgeleid van het Griekse werkwoord \u201c\u03ba\u03c1\u03af\u03bd\u03b5\u03b9\u03bd\u201d, dat \u2018beslissen\u2019 betekent. Als het klopt dat we in benarde situaties inderdaad de beste beslissingen nemen, dan leven we in vruchtbare tijden. Met de nieuwe interviewreeks A Good Crisis brengen we i.s.m. Flagey schrijvers en denkers uit binnen- en buitenland samen om vast te stellen hoe erg het is gesteld en te ontdekken waar de kansen liggen.<\/p>\n<p>over de auteurs<br \/>\nTimothy Garton Ash is hoogleraar Europese Studies aan de universiteit van Oxford. Al een halve eeuw brengt hij verslag uit van de Europese politiek, was hij getuige van enkele van de meest dramatische sc\u00e8nes van het continent en interviewde Europese hoofdrolspelers. Zijn werk is veelvuldig bekroond en verschijnt in 24 talen.<\/p>\n<p>Caroline de Gruyter schrijft al ruim twintig jaar over Europa, onder meer vanuit Brussel en Wenen. Ze is columnist en correspondent van NRC en publiceert ook in onder meer De Standaard, Foreign Policy en The New York Times. Bij De Geus verscheen in 2021 het meermaals herdrukte Beter wordt het niet.<\/p>\n<p>over de moderator<br \/>\nKarel Verhoeven studied Germanic philology and political science and holds a PhD in linguistics and literature (Ghent University). He began his journalistic career in 1995 on the city desk of De Gentenaar, and subsequently worked as a reporter for the news desk of Het Nieuwsblad. In 2000 he moved to De Standaard, working successively as a reporter on the culture desk and for the weekend edition. In 2010 he became the paper\u2019s editor-in-chief.<\/p>\n<p>Een coproductie met Flagey<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>oudste en nieuwste continent Timothy Garton Ash noemt zijn nieuwe boek zelf \u201cde kortste introductie op \u2019s werelds oudste en nieuwste continent.\u201d Hij gooit zijn uitzonderlijke ervaring als verslaggever, academicus en raadgever in de strijd om in Europa in 7 \u00bd hoofdstukken zijn onderwerp in thematische schijfjes te snijden.
