“The fact that in the society of singularities more and more peculiarities, exceptionalities, cultural particularisms will flourish, will also be the case in the future. But politics should intervene more strongly here. While the populists want to abolish liberalism, it is actually about its reform: from a variant based on differences and opening to a stronger regulation of the social and cultural. Ultimately, it is about rebalancing the general against the particular.”
– Andreas Reckwitz, Prof. for comparative cultural sociology at the European University Viadrana in Frankfurt (Oder), Die Zeit, October 5, 2017
