Die SS – untrennbar ist dieses Kürzel mit der Ermordung der europäischen Juden verbunden, dem wohl größten Menschheitsverbrechen aller Zeiten. Überall auf der Welt stehen die beiden Buchstaben als Synonym für das Böse schlechthin. Doch wie genau wurde der „Schwarze Orden" zum Vollstrecker des nationalsozialistischen Rassenwahns? Auf dem neuesten Stand der Forschung führt Bastian Hein in die Geschichte des Staatsschutzkorps des Dritten Reiches ein, beschreibt die Entstehung der Organisation, ihren Kult sowie die Auslese des Personals und schildert die von der SS verübten Verbrechen.

From the revolutionary use of drones to staged coups, child abduction and psychological warfare, the war in Ukraine is like no other. It is a new form of total war, combining traditional military force with all the non-military tools of the Russian state. The 2022 invasion was just the next stage of a conflict that Russia has been fighting since 2005, using all the tactics at its disposal to control Ukraine's politics and wreak havoc.

On 17 October 2019, in Hamburg's imposing criminal justice building, a trial laden with extraordinary historical weight begins to unfold. Bruno Dey stands accused of being involved in a crime committed over seven decades ago: the murder of at least 5,230 inmates at Stutthof, the Nazi concentration camp in present-day Poland. Only seventeen at the time, Dey was a member of the SS unit responsible for administering the camp. Though he concedes to his role as a guard, he adamantly denies responsibility for the killings.

Med Menneskesmuglere i Agadez. På tomandshånd med Bashar al-Assad i en villa i Damaskus. I centrum af et sønderskudt Mosul, få timer efter byen blev revet ud af Islamisk Stats greb. Til bryllupsfest i det svært tilgængelige Nordkorea. I hælene på de amerikanere, der løftede Donald Trump ind i Det Hvide Hus. Med tapre drenge i Aleppos udbombede gader. På jagt efter den russiske folkestemning. Og midt i optøjer i Jerusalem.

Rasmus Tantholdt rejser ind i verdenshistorien, mens den bliver til. Han opsøger krige og konflikter for at fortælle om de kvinder, mænd og børn, der står midt i dem. Den journalistiske ambition, både i hans mangeårige virke som udenrigskorrespondent for TV 2 og i hans bøger, er at gå til alt og alle med åbne øjne og give plads til forskelligartede stemmer, især dem, vi ikke hører så ofte.

When the Communist Party Central Committee and the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR halted mass operations in repression in November 1938, large numbers of mainly Communist purge victims whose cases remained incomplete were released. At the same time, hundreds of NKVD operatives who had carried out the Great Terror were scapegoated and arrested. Drawing on materials from the largely closed archives of the Soviet security police, this collection of essays by an international team of researchers illuminates the previously opaque world of the NKVD perpetrator.

The massacre of the Yazidi people by ISIS was nothing less than genocide. In refugee camps in Iraqi Kurdistan, the authors brought a skilled team to interview more than a hundred ISIS survivors and document what they experienced and saw. These former slaves observed their torturers and knew from the inside the secret facilities that ISIS has kept hidden from the world. What their testimony reveals is an organization whose ambition is power, regardless of their claim to be "soldiers of God."

“WER NICHT FÜR DEN FRIEDEN ARBEITET, DER ARBEITET GEGEN IHN". Der unbekannte Soldat ist eine Hommage an Bertha von Suttner, die erste Botschafterin des Pazifismus, lange bevor er eine greifbare Theorie einer Welt ohne Waffen war und lange bevor diese Welt in Trümmer fiel.
