The Disposable Soma
2024
The year is 2164 and politics has become unrecognizable. Democrats have become conservative, Republicans have become liberal, and an upstart party called the Empathy Party blames all the world's ills on sociopaths. An assassination leaves the Empathy Party's candidacy wide open and a clown car of candidates vies for the nomination. One, hotel heir and failed comedian Jim Liu, stands out from the others when he chooses a genetically modified, super-intelligent, opium-addicted parrot as his running mate. This book follows his quest to become the Empathy Party's nominee for the 2164 presidential election. His campaign takes him through an America where most days are public holidays, psychedelic drug use is widespread, and the last uncontacted people on Earth are the unknowing subjects of a reality show whose fans have tuned it into a new religion.Balansakten

2025
star 7Maurice Papon, a high-ranking official under the Vichy regime, oversaw the deportation of hundreds of Jews from the Gironde prefecture in 1942. After the war, he enjoyed a prestigious career as a prefect, member of parliament, and minister without ever facing any repercussions. In 1981, the newspaper “Le Canard enchaîné” revealed his role during the Occupation, backed by documents, leading to a complaint for crimes against humanity. After 16 years of legal proceedings, his trial began in 1997. Accused of complicity in the deportation of 1,600 Jews, he claimed he was merely obeying government orders and acting under coercion from the Nazi occupiers, while the prosecution emphasized his conscious responsibility. Sentenced to 10 years’ imprisonment in 1998 following a trial lasting more than six months, he was released in 2002 for health reasons. This trial, a belated symbol of the accountability of public officials, continues to fuel reflection on individual responsibility.Bombardment
