This weekend's cover is about the sick republic: How Germany can regain its capacity for action. Ever since the Aschaffenburg attack, "government failure" has become a battle cry. It's not just the authorities who seem to be getting less and less successful. Seven findings and one treatment recommendation from a team of nine Berlin political editors, led by Martin Greive. The cover was once again designed by the duo Mona Eing & Michael Meissner.
