LOST DIGNITY - CHRISTIAN HEIN KARTONIERT (TB)

Human dignity and universal human rights are key concepts in the democratic world of the second
half of the twentieth century and have shaped the consciousness of Western individuals to this
very day. This book's main theme  however  is lost human dignity. Lost human dignity is
introduced as identity marker defining the motivation of an individual or a (smaller (or
larger)) group of individuals to take drastic  retaliatory measures against the force that
deprived her him of her his dignity and  furthermore  what lost dignity could mean for an
individual's sense of identity. The book thus examines various ways an individual or a group of
individuals can lose or can be deprived of her his dignity and  moreover  how their lost
dignity can be instrumentalized or even weaponized for political purposes. This study covers a
wide range of examples of the systematic destruction of human dignity and critically discusses
the general applicability of guaranteed universal human dignity and human rights.
