Biografie & Werdegang des Autors
Rutger Bregman is a Dutch historian and writer whose career has been shaped by a mix of moral seriousness and public argument. Born in 1988 in Renesse, in the Netherlands, he grew up as the son of a pastor and a special-needs teacher, an upbringing that helps explain the ethical register of much of his work. He studied history at Utrecht University and at UCLA, and for a time expected to become an academic historian. Instead, he moved into journalism, first at De Volkskrant and then for a decade at the independent digital platform De Correspondent, where he developed the essayistic style that would make him widely known: historically grounded, policy-minded, and written for a broad online readership.
