Marinetti Detox

Bis heute verstehe ich nicht ganz, warum ich plötzlich von Marinetti wie besessen war. Was brachte mich dazu, noch die entlegensten seiner Schriften aufzustöbern?

The idea that terrorism and other forms of political violence are directly related to strains caused by strongly held grievances has been one of the most common explanations to date and can be traced to a diverse set of theoretical concepts including relative deprivation, social disorganization, breakdown, tension, and anomie. Merton (1938) identifies anomie as a cultural condition of frustration, in which values regarding goals and how to achieve them conflict with limitations on the means of achievement.
