GÅR DET GODT - SEND FLERE PENGE
Anne Knudsen
Gyldendal 1996
ISBN: 8702012715
På én gang veloplagt og køligt videnskabeligt beskriver og analyserer
antropolog, dr.phil. Anne Knudsen danskernes adfærd og retter ikke mindst
blikket mod vores nationale selvtilfredshed og negative syn på fremmede. Skarpt
og ubehageligt præcist giver hun sit signalement af vores magelighed og
manglende vilje til at påtage os ansvar - og af den intimisering og inderliggørelse
af vores omgangsformer, der foregår i disse år, ikke mindst som følge af, at
kvinderne og "de kvindelige værdier" vinder så stærkt frem i den
offentlige sektor.

FRANSKE FRISTELSER
Lally Hoffmann
Børsens Forlag A/S 2000
87-7553-803-2
Det ny Frankrig
Alle har en mening om Frankrig. Der er dem, der elsker at hade franskmændene,
dem, der mener Frankrig er vidunderligt, hvis bare ikke franskmændene også
var der, og så er der dem, som den erfarne tv-korrespondent og
Frankrig-specialist, Lally Hoffmann, der tager franskmændene som de
kommer og kun kan more sig over deres selvhævdelse og lade sig inspirere
af deres evne til at forny sig.
I sin nye bog, Franske fristelser, fortæller hun medrivende og engageret
om Frankrig og franskmændene på vejen ind i det ny årtusind.
Lally Hoffmann tager fat i spændingsfeltet mellem det gamle, lukkede
Frankrig, hvor fortiden og den franske grandeur stadig spiller en afgørende
rolle, og det åbne, moderne Frankrig, hvor økonomien og væksten er på
rette vej. Et land der trænger kraftigt til modernisering, men som har
meget svært ved for alvor at komme i gang.
Ganske vist er Frankrig revolutionens fædreland, men det er også et
land, der er bange for forandring. Mange holder stadig fast ved Nationen,
som de kender den fra historiebøgerne, og som de har valgt, den skal
forblive. De bekæmper derfor og frygter alt ude fra kommende.
I Franske fristelser beretter Lally Hoffmann, hvordan det lukkede Frankrig
tager livtag med det åbne Frankrig

FRIHED,
LIGHED - ELLERS TAK!
Frankrig - på vej mod år 2000
Lally Hoffmann
Gyldendal , 2. udgave, 1998
ISBN 87-00-32378-0
Et kritisk portræt af Frankrig fra Mitterrand
til Chirac, skrevet af den mangeårige udenrigsreporter og korrespondent
for DR og TV2. Med journalistisk tæft og bidende kommentarer skildres de
politiske magtkampe, sociale spændinger, uddannelse og kultur i et land,
som på grund af dets indre modsætninger knager mere og mere i fugerne.
Et land som formelt holder de gamle revolutionsidealer højt, men som
reelt er gået voldsomt på kompromis med 'friheden, ligheden og
broderskabet'.

PEN
nationalismen og de fremmede
Lally Hoffmann
Børsen , 1. udgave, 1998
ISBN 87-7553-637-4
Er Europa på vej til at blive racistisk? Er Danmark?
Europa kan her kort før årtusindskiftet notere en kraftig fremgang for
det yderste højre.
I Frankrig, i Østrig, Italien, Tyskland, Belgien og Norge - og i Danmark.
I Frankrig har den yderste højrefløj for alvor bidt sig fast med partiet
den Nationale Front. Budskabet er klart: Frankrig er i fare, det rene
Frankrig bliver invaderet af de fremmede, af Europa, af USA, af araberne.
Slagordet er ""Frankrig for franskmændene"".
Partilederen, Jean-Marie Le Pen, overrasker gang på gang. Han er
stemmemagneten, den evige provokatør og joker. Hans velsmurte maskineri
fungerer upåklageligt og sikrer på landsplan over 15 procent af
stemmerne.
Lally Hoffmann tegner et kritisk, dybdeborende portræt af den intrigante
franske politiker. Hans vej fra at være en mr. nobody i fransk
lokalpolitik til en indflydelsesrig aktør på den nationale politiske
scene. Hun beskriver rammende og præcist nationalismens væsen - og de
gode grunde til at holde øje med og advare imod den Nationale Front. |
