'De prijs die we betalen' schetst in elf korte essays de (voor)geschiedenis van 7 oktober als een serie van desastreuze beslissingen van een nationalistische en alleen op machtsbehoud gefocuste regering, voor wie taal, cultuur en de vrijheid van het denken geen onbetwistbare waarden meer zijn.

Katrin Glatz Brubakk arbeitete im Herbst 2024 einen Monat lang als Kinderpsychologin im Nasser-Krankenhaus in Khan Younis im Süden des Gazastreifens.

Not until the 1980s would these murders, as well as the coercive sterilizations of some four hundred thousand others classified as “feeble-minded,” be officially acknowledged as crimes at all. The Question of Unworthy Life charts this history from its origins in prewar debates about the value of disabled lives to our continuing efforts to unlearn eugenic thinking today.
