Her er de nye anbefalinger
Her er de nye anbefalinger Disse bøger kan du læse uden mundbindKære læser,Der er et kulturliv, der aldrig lukker, og det er litteraturens verden, og hvert år i januar glæder vi os til at hylde den. Det sker med Politikens litteraturpris, som med ti år på bagen for længst er blevet en fast bestanddel af vores dækning af dansk litteratur. I år indstiller vi syv fantastiske bøger. Vi kunne have indstillet mange flere, for dansk litteratur befinder sig i en ny storhedstid, men bruttolisten skulle skæres til en nettoliste, og det blev nedenstående værker, der dyster om prisen, som er på 200.000 kr. Vores litteraturpris hylder bøger, der er udkommet, men der er masser af nye på vej i den kommende sæson.

Danskernes bekymring for corona falder
Danskernes bekymring for corona falder Trods rekordhøje smittetal falder danskernes bekymring for corona, og det vidner om, at folk tænker, det ikke bliver så slemt som frygtet. Måske har du selv mærket, at på trods af de rekordhøje smittetal, så er bekymringerne lettet lidt fra dit sind. Det viser Hope-projektet, som løbende måler danskernes adfærd i forhold til corona, og som er ledet af Michael Bang Petersen, professor i statskundskab på Aarhus Universitet. Den nyeste opgørelse viser, at 49 procent synes, at corona er en trussel mod det danske samfund, mens det for et år siden var 73 procent. Folk bevæger sig i retning af, at det ikke er så slemt som frygtet«, siger Michael Bang Petersen.

Myanmar court jails celebrities who supported democracy protests
(Reuters) – A court in military-ruled Myanmar jailed three prominent show business figures for three years each on Thursday for their part in protests against a February coup, media reported. The military overthrew an elected government led by Aung San Suu Kyi on Feb. 1, triggering protests and turmoil that is still unfolding. A court in the main city of Yangon jailed them for three years with hard labour, the Mizzima news agency and the BBC’s Burmese-language service reported. Reuters was not able to contact the court or the couple’s lawyers for comment. Much of the theatre and music is rooted in traditional themes but Burmese-language cover versions of Asian and Western pop songs are hugely popular and young Myanmar singers and actors have big followings.

Tory Burch’s Muratore on tech and the power of change
“Change is a good thing – with it comes new challenges and opportunities.”Muratore talked to Reuters about the power of change. I discovered I was motivated by driving change in large organizations and blending strategic vision and a customer-focus with rigorous engineering execution. How did these recent times change your approach to technology strategy in a corporation? The pandemic has further reinforced these values, but also reminded me of ways to be a more effective leader. If you had told me at graduation that I would support major tech transformations at Fortune 500 companies, I would have been surprised.

U.S. warns banks as it names five more Chinese officials under Hong Kong act
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The United States on Monday named five already-sanctioned Chinese officials it said had contributed to undermining Hong Kong’s democracy and warned that foreign financial institutions that conduct business with them would be subject to sanctions. A six-monthly State Department report to Congress named the five as Chen Dong, He Jing, Lu Xinning, Tan Tienui and Yin Zonghua, all deputy directors at China’s Hong Kong liaison office. Naming the five bought to 39 the number of officials so designated under the terms of the U.S. Hong Kong Autonomy Act since October last year. The United States has thus far not sanctioned any foreign financial institution for doing business with those named in accordance with the Hong Kong act, which became law last year. The five individuals named on Monday were among seven Chinese official sanctioned in July over China’s crackdown on democracy in Hong Kong.
