Executed

Sinopse

Executed? Isn't that an exaggeration? She's still breathing, isn't she? 


The term is borrowed from Per Lindeberg, who wrote the definitive book on the infamous dismemberment murder case. He speaks of a "social execution." Birgitte Bonnesen, former CEO of Swedbank, has been socially executed. She was fired, her contract with the bank was terminated by Göran Persson without any stated reason. She has been publicly shamed in the press for months and years. First acquitted, then convicted of gross fraud. 


In the dismemberment case, at least there was a crime to be innocent of. Here, there is nothing—except journalists who get everything wrong, legal authorities eagerly acting as the mob's enforcers, and a court that fails to understand the very evidence it relies on to convict. 


Yes, executed. This is a horror story. 


Jan Söderqvist is an author, writer, editor, and lecturer. Together with Alexander Bard, he has co-authored six books, including The Netocrats and the latest Process and Event, which have been translated into more than 20 languages. He is also the author of IceBorg, the unauthorized biography of Björn Borg, now being published in English.

The Pledge to America - One...

Drago Dzieran

Retired Navy SEAL Drago Dzieran takes listeners behind the scenes of his incredible life, from an impoverished childhood in Communist-controlled Poland to his time as a political prisoner, to his twenty years as a member of the United States military's most elite fighting force. 
 
 
 
Everything I have, I owe to America—the greatest country in the world. 
 
 
 
I have been fighting oppression and defending freedom my entire life. When I became a United States citizen, I felt it was my moral obligation to give back to this country and the people who had given me freedom. I wanted to serve my new country in the best capacity I could, so when the first Persian Gulf War broke out, I decided to join the military. During my Navy career, I performed over one hundred combat direct action missions in Iraq from 2003 to 2005. 
 
 
 
My chance to live as a free man is only possible because of the ideals the founding fathers fought for and that have been carried forward to this day by Americans. 
 
 
 
Every person has a voice, and every voice matters. I will continue to encourage others to get involved, stand up, and preserve and cherish the freedom and liberty we have in America.

Marie Antoinette - The Portrait...

Stefan Zweig

Stefan Zweig’s Marie Antoinette: The Portrait of an Average Woman, first published in 1932, is one of the most compelling and psychologically nuanced biographies of the doomed French queen. Renowned for his ability to bring historical figures to life, Zweig offers an intimate and deeply human portrayal of Marie Antoinette, tracing her transformation from a carefree Austrian archduchess to the tragic symbol of the French Revolution. 
Unlike traditional biographies that focus solely on political events, Zweig’s approach is psychological and novelistic, making the book as gripping as a work of fiction. He explores Marie Antoinette’s emotional world, her initial naïveté and frivolity at the court of Versailles, her lavish lifestyle, and her slow awakening to the realities of her position as queen. As France plunges into revolutionary chaos, Zweig examines how Marie Antoinette evolves from a sheltered, pleasure-seeking woman into a figure of resilience and dignity in the face of her impending doom. 
Drawing from an extensive range of historical sources, Zweig vividly recreates the opulence of the Bourbon court, the growing unrest of the French people, and the dramatic downfall of the monarchy. He neither condemns nor glorifies Marie Antoinette, but instead presents her as a flawed, complex individual caught in the merciless tide of history. His narrative is filled with emotional depth, historical insight, and a keen understanding of human psychology, making this one of the most enduring biographies of the queen.
