The West wasn’t conquered. It self-destructed. The Reich You Deserve is a ruthless postmortem of a dying civilization — not killed by invasion, but by its own cowardice, comfort, and delusion.

Nicolas Machiavel (Niccolò Machiavelli en italien) est né en 1469 à Florence, en Italie, à une époque marquée par les troubles politiques et les luttes de pouvoir entre les grandes cités-États italiennes. Fonctionnaire et diplomate de la République florentine, il a voyagé à travers l’Europe et observé de près les pratiques des cours princières et des gouvernants de son temps. Ces expériences ont profondément nourri sa réflexion sur le pouvoir, la politique et la nature humaine.

The ultrarich hold more of America’s wealth than they did in the heyday of the Carnegies and Rockefellers. In this incisive and provocative book, Evan Osnos offers an unforgettable portrait of the tactics and obsessions driving this new Gilded Age, in which superyachts, luxury bunkers, elite tax dodges and a torrent of political donations bespeak staggering disparities of wealth and power.

Iran presents one of the most significant foreign policy challenges for America and the West, yet very little is known about what the country's goals really are. Vali Nasr examines Iran's political history in new ways to explain its actions and ambitions on the world stage, showing how, behind the veneer of theocracy and Islamic ideology, today's Iran is pursuing a grand strategy aimed at securing the country internally and asserting its place in the region and the world.

In this incisive new work, Adrian Daub analyzes the global spread of cancel culture discourse as a moral panic, showing that, though its object is fuzzy, talk of cancel culture in global media has become a preoccupation of an embattled liberalism. There are plenty of conservative voices who gin up worries about cancel culture to advance their agendas. But more remarkable perhaps is that it is centrist, even left-leaning, media that have taken up the rallying cry and really defined the outlines of what cancel culture is supposed to be.

Today, the majority of the peoples of the planet live in nation-states, based upon the idea, if never the reality, of a single people, a single culture, a single rule of law, and a single source of sovereign authority. But will they continue to do so in the future? None of the major challenges that confront humanity today—from climate change to disease, from terrorism to mass migration—can be handled effectively by single nation-states, no matter how powerful.
