"Es braucht eine ethische Revolution. Kein Reförmchen."

Was wäre wenn?
In seiner Polit-Utopie She, the President skizziert Rey Rodriguez den ungewöhnlichen Werdegang von Polly, einer Person of Color, die gerade mal 40-jährig zur Präsidentin der USA gewählt wird.
Das Gedankenexperiment legt die feinmaschigen globalen Verstrickungen von Finanzwirtschaft, Politik, Rüstungsindustrie und industrieller Landwirtschaft offen. Gleichzeitig lässt der Autor ein Zeitalter der Sinnhaftigkeit anbrechen und stellt den Auswüchsen des Raubtierkapitalismus eine grüne Revolution gegenüber, die Bildung, Nachhaltigkeit und Menschlichkeit ins Zentrum des Daseins rückt.

About the Author
Architect and musician, born in Bielefeld/Germany in 1978. He lives in Zurich/Switzerland with his family after stopovers in Stuttgart/Germany, Las Palmas/Spain, Cologne/Germany and Amsterdam/Netherlands.
In his main occupation as an architect, he grapples with the architectonic and urban development challenges of our times. With equal passion, he dedicates himself to playing music with friends in his rock band in their rehearsal space, in the studio, and on stage. How he manages all of this as a part-time father who also cooks, he doesn't know either. It is clear, though, is that he is someone who pursues the matters he loves with great gusto.
Politics has always fascinated him, and his observations of the alarming geopolitical developments in recent years have unsettled him. A vague idea for a story escalated into two years of steady research and writing.
From the Back Cover
«The American Dream reloaded.»
«We need an ethical revolution, not a minor movement.»
What if?
In his political utopia "She, the President." Rey Rodriguez outlines the extraordinary career of Polly, a person of color who just turned 40 and is elected president of the USA. The improbable happens: based on sweeping public support, an all-encompassing political turnaround is initiated.
Rodriguez's thought experiment exposes the intricate global entanglement of financial policy, politics, the arms industry, and industrial agriculture. The author invokes the dawn of a new age of meaningfulness and juxtaposes the excesses of dog-eat-dog-capitalism with a green revolution that shifts education, sustainability, and humanity into the center of existence.
