Comments on: Violence and the morale of Justice http://prosch.wordpress.com/2008/05/16/violence-and-the-morale-of-justice/ My name is Reinhard Prosch, and this is basically just another blog about the meanings and ramifications of our cultural production.

Thanks. Your question is a tricky one. The German “jein” is a classic and it’s hard to find an equivalent in English. “Yeno” and “Suno”(sure+no) both sound like cheap and ugly Japanese cars. So one probably has to give it to Oasis using their catch phrase “definitely maybe”. Gosh I should stop thinking about this stuff. Have a nice weekend. I feel very welcome. Thanks.

As to an answer to your questions, I am looking for an English equivalent to "jein": "Yo" is already defined, but "nes" also comes to mind. Any other suggestions? I really enjoyed the video - their behavior is indeed highly questionable! Thanks for your comment, Bettie, and welcome.

Do people really care? Aren't we all a bunch of hypocrites? By the way another video containing "controversial" material by Justice: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9DBOnqMXyA Enjoy!

In terms of reference, I guess you're having trouble figuring out what I am talking about, because the video I hotlinked to has in the meantime been removed from YouTube due to copyright issues. That being as it may - you can still find the video online, if you run a search for the band "Justice" and their song "Stress".

Reemtsma's latest book (ed. Feb. 08) "Vertrauen und Gewalt", questioning how violence (holocaust/terrorism) can be accepted (as it supposedly is) in a culture/society that since Hobbes concentrates all violence in the hands of the state - and what this violence does to peoples' perception of security. I would like to criticise that, being completely ignorant of anything that has to do with Computer Games or MTV-clips, I find it rather hard to understand from your article which piece of communication or art you are referring to. For example, I cannot find the name in the title down in your text. Cheerio, rmh. I like your article and would like to recommend J.P. Reemtsma’s latest book (ed.
