The New Nomos – Details, episodes & analysis

This episode is an engaging discussion with Luqman Muller, an addiction counsellor and intellectual based in Stuttgart, Germany. The conversation delves into the complexities of the German identity while examining the impact of the World Wars on the country and how it has effected the country's collective mindset.

Luqman sheds light on the connection between anger, addiction, and the pervasive undercurrent of pain in German society and how it can be extrapolated across the world. The exploration extends to German music, literature, and history, unraveling the layers of sociology and mass psychosis that have shaped the nation's narrative.

This episode questions not just the surface manifestations of addiction but, more crucially, its underlying causes – probing into why the pain persists and how it intertwines with the broader sociocultural fabric.

This is a unique perspective on Germany's past and present and an enlightened view towards its future.

Muhammad Elkateb is a serial entrepreneur born and raised in the United Kingdom to Egyptian parents forced to leave a life of wealth and abundance in Egypt in the wake of the political upheavals of Gamal Abdel Nasser.  After finishing university, disillusioned by a system that didn't seem to make sense to him, Muhammad began a career in sales by flogging perfumes door to door. He eventually transitioned into the world of telecommunications holding a number of high level sales rolls. Muhammad then made the switch to entrepreneurship and, keen to get out of the UK, began the life of a digital nomad chasing the sun. Among his portfolio of businesses, he is one of the founders of The Single Origin Food Co, a company that supports small farmers across the world by delivering their products to the consumer directly from source.  This episode flows in many directions and touches on a vast number of topics and themes that all culminate in looking towards a better future.    Music by Ian Cattanch

This chapter marks a year since this podcast publicly released its first episode. It truly has been a journey of discovery and I, Abdallah Dutton, would like to personally thank everyone that has tuned in and supported me on this project. 

This episode is a statement to understand the time we live in. It draws on my understanding of the work of the ancient Greek historian Polybius and what he outlined as the cyclical nature of political systems throughout time. It concludes that as an Ummah we look towards the Crown Prince HRH Prince Muhammad bin Salman Al Saud as a new hope for guidance and protection in this time of rapid change. 

Be patient, it is not what you have been taught.

Given the events happening around us I went back to this piece I wrote a few years ago. 

It highlights that the moment we find ourselves in, is not some seemingly spontaneous cataclysm of events, but is rather a product of centuries of injustice.

An injustice that on the face of it seems so engrained into modern society that there is no way out. But the reality of it, is not so. And the way forward is not that complex. 

We don’t need a change of scenery

We just need a new set of eyes
