Affirmative action originated as a plan to correct the historical disadvantage of women and people of color?to make the system more fair. Yet, for over twenty years, it has been repeatedly attacked for being unfair to whites, and even un-American. Guinier and Sturm begin with a critique of affirmative action as it stands now, arguing that a system of selection that determines "qualification" from test scores and then adds on factors like race and gender doesn’t work?either for the people it includes or the people it leaves out. But they go further, asking us to rethink how we evaluate me

Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts treffen sich in Zürich Künstler, Wissenschaftler, Musiker und gescheiterte Revolutionäre, so auch Gottfried Semper, Friedrich Theodor Vischer, Richard Wagner, Gottfried Keller, Jacob Burckhardt u.a. Der Autor beleuchtet anhand von zahlreichen Dokumenten, welche wechselseitigen Einflüsse diese Begegnungen auf die jeweilige Arbeit der Beteiligten hatten. Konzeptionen von "Gesamtkunstwerk" wurden ausgedacht und formuliert, neue ästhetische Theorien, die bis heute ihre Wirkkraft haben, wurden entwickelt.
