The renowned communication scientist Bernhard Pörksen addresses this topic in his new book "Zuhören - Die Kunst, sich der Welt zu öffnen ’ and impressively shows why it is about time to rediscover the art of listening.
Why don't we listen?
This question is the central theme of the book. Pörksen analyses why warnings about climate change often go unheard, why grievances are only taken seriously at a late stage and why many debates are increasingly hardening instead of building bridges. He analyses the mechanisms that make genuine listening difficult - whether in politics, the media or in personal interaction - and at the same time shows ways in which empathetic and constructive dialogue can succeed.
A new culture of dialogue for our time
As a leading expert on media ethics and dialogue culture, Bernhard Pörksen calls for a more conscious, mindful exchange. He shows in a practical way how genuine listening not only reduces misunderstandings, but also helps to make better decisions - whether in a professional or private context.
With impressive case studies, Pörksen summarises scientific findings in an understandable way and makes it clear that listening is much more than a passive gesture - it is an active attitude that promotes empathy and can sustainably improve social discourse.
👉 An inspiring book for anyone who is interested in communication and dialogue.
