Life
After graduating from high school in Idar-Oberstein in 2000 , Giesa studied business administration ( diploma ) at the University of Mannheim . He studied at the University of Lusófona in Lisbon as part of the Erasmus program .
Giesa was chairman of the Young Liberals in Rhineland-Palatinate. In the 2004 European elections , he ran unsuccessfully as the Rhineland-Palatinate top candidate for the FDP . In 2010 he co-organized a non-partisan Facebook campaign for Joachim Gauck, who was proposed by the SPD and the Greens for the election of the Federal President .

reception
His book New Business Order (2014) was reviewed by Zeit Online with: “The book provides many stimulating thoughts. Many principles in the digital economy can be transferred to your own life and also used for your own company ideas. The book can just as easily be misunderstood. Then it delivers an overly optimistic view of what is actually a gloomy version of the working world of the future. "
According to the political scientist Armin Pfahl-Traughber, the work Dangerous Citizens: The New Right Seizes the Middle (2015) is “rather fragmentary and superficial” and ignores the state of research on the New Right . The authors treated a topic that was previously foreign to them; there is a lack of definitions and appropriate weightings. They "construct [...] a unity and homogeneity of the intended protagonists that does not exist at all". Ultimately, the book is "well meant, but not well done".
