When the Culture of Dispute Becomes a Public Virtue
With Controversial Debates: Between Public Outrage and Constructive Dispute, the VHS Duisburg focuses on a topic that remains crucial for democracy, public life, and media culture alike. Media ethicist Christian Schicha analyzes the dynamics of heated confrontations and asks how moral outrage can once again lead to argumentative dialogue.
An Evening about Language, Attitude, and Democratic Resilience
The event combines political education with a precise analysis of the present. It centers on the conditions of public debates, the role of digital media, and the question of why disputes often lead to outrage. Anyone interested in communication ethics, discourse culture, and the quality of democratic negotiation will experience an informative author encounter with intellectual depth.
Christian Schicha and the Art of Argumentative Thinking
Schicha is one of the prominent voices in media ethics. His work has long revolved around public life, truth, disinformation, populism, and the responsibility of media. His recent monograph Communication Ethics: Foundations - Debates - Solutions addresses the question where this lecture evening starts: how a constructive culture of debate can succeed even in polarized times. This promises not light entertainment, but a literary and socially sharply contoured format of thought.
Reading Atmosphere in the City Window
The venue, the VHS in the City Window on Steinsche Gasse, provides the right environment for a concentrated discussion about disputes, media, and democracy. The atmosphere is expected to be calm, urban, and discourse-oriented - ideal for those who want to not only hear lectures but also engage with the content. Particularly interesting: the event combines analysis with everyday thought-provoking ideas for a more respectful handling of public debates.
What Visitors Can Expect
Attendees will receive a well-founded overview of the causes, mechanisms, and countermeasures of public outrage. Additionally, there will be concrete proposals for a better culture of dispute, which is urgently needed in both academic and social spaces. A recommended date for anyone who thinks about media, democracy, and social understanding as interconnected.
Conclusion: This event promises not a loud effect, but intellectual clarity. Those who want to understand why debates derail - and how they can become productive again - should experience the evening in Duisburg live.
