Michael Wolff Ordre des livres

TRIUMPH DES CHAOS: WARUM DONALD TRUMPS WAHLSIEG UNVERMEIDBAR WAR – UND WAS ER FÜR DIE WELT BEDEUTET »Starautor Michael Wolff hat wieder eine Art Sachbuchthriller über Donald Trump geschrieben.« Matthias Kolb, Süddeutsche Zeitung »Das Buch ist unbestreitbar fesselnd – eine wahre Ausbeute an Schleim, Kriecherei und Widerwärtigkeiten, die die Geschichte von Trump 2.0 erzählt.« Nicolas Niarchos, The New York Times »Eine einzigartige und eindringliche Diagnose des Charakters und des Führungsstils des Präsidenten.« Publishers Weekly Donald Trumps zweite US-Präsidentschaft ist eines der größten politischen Comebacks aller Zeiten und erschüttert die Welt. Das beweist schon der Weg, auf dem er zurück ins Weiße Haus gelangt ist. Der Journalist und Bestsellerautor Michael Wolff hat Trump dabei so eng begleitet wie niemand anderes: Wir dringen in die Kitschwelt von Mar-a-Lago ein, sitzen in unterkühlten Gerichtssälen und im Wohnzimmer des Trump Tower in New York; wir beobachten den US-Präsidenten bei seinen Ausrastern, Geistesblitzen und täglich vierstündigen Golfrunden; wir lernen seine schillernde Entourage kennen, die jetzt auf einflussreichen Posten in Washington sitzt. Schon bald offenbart sich eine gespaltene Realität: Einerseits steckt Trump in einem tiefen Sumpf aus juristischen Untersuchungen, Anklagen und Verfahren, andererseits unterstützt ihn seine Partei bedingungslos, während die Umfragewerte steigen und die Opposition schwächelt. Aber genau das ist der unheimliche Grund für Trumps Erfolg: Auf dem schmalen Grat zwischen Tragödie und Farce zeichnet Wolff das erschütternde Porträt eines Mannes, dessen Verhalten so unkontrolliert und erratisch ist, dass es alle Regeln des politischen Lebens außer Kraft setzt. So ist »Alles oder Nichts« nicht weniger als das eindringliche Zeugnis der Dämonen, des Unfriedens und der Anarchie im Amerika unter Donald Trump . Wolffs Buch ist ein investigativer Politthriller , der in die Abgründe des Trumpuniversums blickt – und liefert damit einen Schlüssel zum Verständnis jener Gesellschaft, die Trump hervorgebracht hat .

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The author of Fire and Fury delivers a breathtaking insider account of the 2024 Trump campaign—undoubtedly the wildest, most unpredictable campaign in U.S. history, including multiple criminal trials, two assassination attempts, and a sudden switch of opponents.All or Nothing takes readers on a journey accompanying Donald Trump on his return to power as only Michael Wolff, the foremost chronicler of the Trump era, can do it. As Trump cruelly and swiftly dispatches his opponents, heaps fire and fury on the prosecutors and judges who are pursuing him, and mocks and belittles anyone in his way, including the president of the United States, this becomes not just another election but perhaps, both sides say, the last election. The stakes could not be Either the establishment destroys Donald Trump, or he destroys the establishment.What soon emerges is a split-screen On one side, a picture that could not be worse for an inescapable, perhaps mortal legal quagmire; on the other side, an entirely positive political overwhelming support within his party, ever-rising polling numbers, and lackluster opposition. Through personal access to Trump’s inner circle, Wolff details a behind-the-scenes, revealing landscape of Trumpworld and its unlikely cast of primary players as well as the candidate himself, the most successful figure in American politics since, arguably, Roosevelt, but who might easily seem to be raving mad.Threading a needle between tragedy and farce, the fate of the nation, the liberal ideal, and democracy itself, All or Nothing paints a gobsmacking portrait of a man whose behavior is so unimaginable, so uncontrolled, so unmindful of cause and effect, that it defeats all the structures and logic of civic life. And yet here in one of the most remarkable comebacks in American political history, Trump is victorious. This is not just a story about It is a vivid exposé of the demons, discord, and anarchy—the fire, fury, and future—of American life under Trump.

Wolff's book defends the Kantian idea of a „general logic“ whose principles underlie special systems of deductive logic. It thus undermines „logical pluralism,“ which tolerates the co-existence of divergent systems of modern logic without asking for consistent common principles. Part I of Wolff’s book identifies the formal language in which the most general principles of logic must be expressed. This language turns out to be a version of syllogistic language already used by Aristotle. The universal validity of logical principles, as well as the translatability of other logical languages into this language, are shown to depend only on the meanings of its logical vocabulary. Part II of the book answers the metalogical question concerning the deductive relation between general logic and special logical systems, which also have their own (less general) principles. This part identifies the rules according to which logical rules can be derived from principles. The main result of the book is that the highest principles of logic and metalogics are provided by the syllogistic, when properly understood.

Die Frage nach dem „einzigen, richtigen“ Logiksystem wird von Logikern oft zurückgewiesen: Eine solche Logik existiert nicht. Michael Wolff behandelt diese Frage jedoch anders, indem er die Methode der logisch-semantischen Sprachanalyse auf die Sprachen der Logik anwendet. Diese Analyse zeigt, dass die Ansicht von Frege, Hilbert und anderen, das logische Vokabular der Syllogistik sei ohne Bedeutungsänderung durch wahrheitsfunktionale und quantorenlogische Ausdrücke sowie durch Ausdrücke des Klassenkalküls ersetzbar, nicht haltbar ist. Das logische Vokabular der Syllogistik reicht aus, um alle gültigen Regeln und Gesetze der deduktiven Logik wiederzugeben. Im Gegensatz dazu erweisen sich Regeln und Gesetze, die nur in der Sprache moderner „klassischer“ und „nicht-klassischer“ Logik formuliert werden können, als nicht allgemeingültig, da ihre Gültigkeit nicht ausschließlich auf der Bedeutung des verwendeten logischen Vokabulars beruht. Diese Systeme setzen implizit die Gültigkeit der Syllogistik voraus und sind aus ihr ableitbar. Wolff zeigt detailliert, wie diese Ableitung exakt und lückenlos zu bewerkstelligen ist, indem er eine Methode anwendet, die bereits in der Schule des Aristoteles entwickelt wurde.
