So, wie andere Vinylplatten, Videospielkonsolen oder Vintage-Kleider sammeln, sammelt Rolf Dobelli seit Jahren Geschichten von Misserfolgen – Fehlschläge im Leben, in Karrieren, Ehen und Familien. Hier präsentiert er die Sammlung von Verhalten und Denkmustern, die garantiert zu einem miserablen Leben führen – eine Art Enzyklopädie der Idiotie. Und er zeigt: Wenn wir die größten Glücks- und Erfolgskiller im Blick haben und ihnen aus dem Weg gehen, tut sich der richtige Weg automatisch vor uns auf.

Byung-Chul Han is one of the most widely read philosophers in Europe today, a member of the new generation of German thinkers that includes Markus Gabriel and Armen Avanessian. In The Agony of Eros, a bestseller in Germany, Han considers the threat to love and desire in today's society. For Han, love requires the courage to accept self-negation for the sake of discovering the Other. In a world of fetishized individualism and technologically mediated social interaction, it is the Other that is eradicated, not the self.

La maxime de Pindare, " deviens qui tu es ", se décline partout : titres d’essais, slogans publicitaires, mantras sur les réseaux sociaux.

Dennoch ist und bleibt er optimistisch. Herausforderungen haben die Menschen immer wieder gezwungen, zu wachsen und sich in die nächste Phase ihrer Entwicklung zu begeben, indem sie die Paradigmenwechsel, mit denen sie konfrontiert waren, auf mustergültige Weise bewältigten. Wir befinden uns jetzt in einem Abschnitt, in dem wir in eine neue Phase unserer Entwicklung eintreten müssen, und dieses Mal müssen wir gleichzeitig drei kritische Paradigmenwechsel bewältigen:

"A Plea for Voluntaryism" by Auberon Herbert is a passionate advocacy for a society based entirely on voluntary cooperation and free association, without any form of coercion or compulsion. Herbert argues that all human interactions, whether economic, social, or political, should be based on mutual consent and voluntary agreements among individuals. He critiques the use of state force and intervention, asserting that such actions violate individual liberty and hinder genuine progress and prosperity.

Mit dem "Philebos" liefert Platon eine der frühesten ausführlichen Untersuchungen zur Lust in der abendländischen Philosophie. Zwar ist ihm, wie er in dem Dialog herausarbeitet, die Lust nicht das höchste Gut des menschlichen Lebens, aber als ein notwendiger Teil dessen ist sie gleichwohl nicht daraus wegzudenken. Grundlage von Platons systematischer Untersuchung zur Lust ist das in der Antike bereits zu Platons Zeit weithin bekannte physiologische Modell der Gemischtheit von Lust und Unlust.

Andy Blunden’s Hegel Marx & Vygotsky, Essays in Social Philosophy presents his novel approach to social theory in a series of essays. Blunden aims to use the cultural psychology of Lev Vygotsky and the Soviet Activity Theorists to renew Hegelian Marxism as an interdisciplinary science. This allows psychologists and social theorists to share their insights through concepts equally valid in either domain.
