The author describes in detail the ecological limits to today's capitalism and defends a position which would put the harmonious co-existence of human beings and nature in the place of the profit-oriented dualism of production and consumption. The claim arising from this logically is that we need to revise radically the interpretation of our concept of "good life", today connected to the level of consumption.

The article makes an attempt to revise the image of the Austrian national memory of Austria's participation in World War II. The author – on the basis of a well-documented case study in Burgenland – comes to the conclusion that the local community accepted the racist policy and genocide by the nazis, or at least they resigned themselves to it, and the final disappointment only came at the time when total war was threatening Burgenland, too.
