Michel Friedman spricht mit Nicole Deitelhoff – über Streit

In May, author, philosopher, and presenter Michel Friedman invites conflict expert Nicole Deitelhoff to the Schauspielhaus theater to discuss a concept without which democracy would not be possible: conflict.

She is also currently co-spokesperson for the Frankfurt branch of the Research Institute for Social Cohesion (FGZ).
