Culture
From the Second World War as told by an ordinary German civilian to the latest album from Cat Power, Monocle's culture editors pick the midwinter's essential books and music.
Fight or flight
The future of Berlin’s Tempelhof airport is uncertain. As campaigners mount a final bid to rescue the symbolic site, its salvation could be the rising number of executive jets.

Back on track
As cities turn from cars, tram and light-rail projects are booming. Monocle meets Walter Grawenhoff, president of industry leader Bombardier, to discuss the future of urban travel and public transport.
Europe
