"The most important ideas or concepts of the understanding, again , prior to experience are "space"and "time ".
It means that time give people the peace of might they need to figure things out.Also, space give people time to reconnect back to the self and find who out what they want.I choose this quote because I know people who always ask for time and space for  when they're in a hard situation.So, I think everyone need some time for them-self to clear their mind.

5/02 Junger 


"The human will disciplines and outfits this flesh with such painstaking care that it now seems more indifferent to injury. Today, we again are able to bear the sight of death with greater indifference, since we no longer feel at home in our body as we did before".

This passage basically mean what doesn't kill you make you stronger. He's  saying that whatever we are experiencing in this world is real. Instead of running away from problem, we have to stay strong and fight it. If we run away from problem, we will spend the rest of our life being afraid . We have to defend what is ours so we can set examples.I choose this quote because that is exactly what going on today, some people are committing suicide because they are not strong enough to fight to deal with whatever issue they're experiencing .

Max Robert




"In addition to power of the "electors" to choose the emperor there was an Imperial Legislature or Diet, that also checked the power of the emperor. The Imperial Diet was composed of three levels: at the highest level were the electors, the second level was made up of the other princes, and the third level, representatives from the city-states".
Max Robert means that they have the same type of government as United Stated. Different name but same rules, each branch overlooks the other branches to make sure that the law is distributed fairly.He's basically saying that all politicians are the Same, no one is better than the other. I chose this quote because it remind me of the type of government back home ( Haiti). They corporate  with each other to do whatever they whant.

Structure of government


"These voters were mostly from the middle and upper classes in both the cities and rural areas, and across religious lines" 
It means the German federal government had been dominated by social democratic party. The upper Clss and the middle class people  provide mostly of the  electoral  vote to support their parties and  get their needs met.

Section of right 

"Reich communities speaking a foreign language may not be deprived by legislation of their national identity, especially in the use of their mother language in education, in local administration and jurisdiction."

It mean that everybody has equal right, it does not matter where the come from, what language they speak. They have the same right has other citizens.

I chose these passages because Germany I feel that Germany has the same structure and right as U.S. Under the constitution every citizen have the same  right but in reality we don't. Upper class and middle class people have better everything than working and lower class people. They receive better education and better life style. The government provide policies that benefit their upper class people to keep them happy. Upper/ middle class voice count more than lower/ working class.

Luxembers


"The connection between serial killings and bad economic times is not definitive but there are indications of it: all of these the killers struck during a period of extreme economic uncertainty in German history"

It means that as an economic go down, people tend to be violent because they feel are angry . People  will always expect things to get better , to offer a better life for their family. Violent occur because some people don't know how to adjust to change, so when something unexpected happened, it might push people to react negative
I chose  this piece because when some  people are angry, they take justice in their own hand. And that put others in a place to fight back so they can get what they want..

"Weimar Republic

A national prohibition, Paragraph 175, was added to the Reich Penal Code in 1871. It read:1

"An unnatural sex act committed between persons of male sex or by humans with animals is punishable by imprisonment; the loss of civil rights might also be imposed."
When the Nazi's came to power in 1933, they put a halt to efforts seeking reform of this law. In 1935, after the murder of Ernst Roem, the NSDAP amended the Paragraph 175 to close what were seen as loopholes in the current law.

The new law had three parts:

Paragraph 175:
"A male who commits a sex offense with another male or allows himself to be used by another male for a sex offense shall be punished with imprisonment. Where a party was not yet twenty-one years of age at the time of the act, the court may in especially minor cases refrain from punishment."
Paragraph 175a:
"Penal servitude up to 10 years or, where there are mitigating circumstances, imprisonment of not less than three months shall apply to: (1) a male who, with violence or the threat of violence to body and soul or life, compels another male to commit a sex offense with him or to allow himself to be abused for a sex offense; (2) a male who, by abusing a relationship of dependence based upon service, employment or subordination, induces another male to commit a sex offense with him or to allow himself to be abused for a sex offense; (3) a male over 21 years of age who seduces a male person under twenty-one years to commit a sex offense with him or to allow himself to be abused for a sex offense; (4) a male who publicly commits a sex offense with males or allows himself to be abused by males for a sex offense or offers himself for the same."
Paragraph 175b:
"An unnatural sex act committed by humans with animals is punishable by imprisonment; the loss of civil rights might also be imposed.
Paragraph 175 mean that after the Nazi's come to power, they were  considered homosexuality to be a crime  .Anyone who engaged in a sexual act with person in the same sex were illegal .Also, people who engaged in sexual activities with animals have been punished by imprisonment .The act was against homosexuality.


It's All a Swindle" (Alles Schwindel)
Mean that all mankind has lost their reason, we were born and raise about lies, cheat and deception. We all living in a society were all are fighting for their best interest, taking opportunity from others and give it to their own group. Everything we have been tough is lies .we cannot trust anybody except ourself. I chose this lyrics because the society we live in is corrupt , people we thought we can trust are the one who end up betraying us and want us died because of ambition, jealousy and so on .

"No Time" (Keine Zeit),
In my opinion, it means that we live in a world where we worried more about what people think about us instead what we think about ourself. We live to others expectation, we want to be accepted so we do what they want to make them happy. We spend more time analyzing others instead of ourself. Also, we have no time to rest because we spend our spare time thinking about how to make others happy.I chose this lyrics because when I'm in the street  , everyone always rushing including myself because we have certain around of things that we have to do at the same time. Time is what we don't have.for exemple, we have to eat while we studying because we don't have time to do it at a later time.
