While “missions” used to be the territory of experts and missionary professionals, globalization has made the issues and needs of our world accessible to average Americans. Many American Christians feel overwhelmed by the scope of the brokenness in the world and conclude all they can do is...

As a diplomat in turbulent 15th-century Florence, Niccolò Machiavelli knew how quickly political fortunes could rise and fall. The Prince, his tough-minded, pragmatic handbook on how power really works, made his name notorious and has remained controversial ever since. How can a leader be strong and decisive yet still inspire loyalty in his followers? When is it necessary to break the rules? Is it better to be feared than loved?

Uma filosofia politicamente incorreta é o novo título de Luiz Felipe Pondé para o Guia politicamente incorreto da filosofia, lançado em 2012. Com texto revisitado pelo autor e uma nova introdução, a obra questiona se o pensamento politicamente correto pode fazer mal. De acordo com Pondé, sim. “Antes de tudo, ele nos faz covardes. À medida que ele se torna uma ferramenta jurídica e de linchamento público nas redes sociais, ele começa a devastar a virtude da coragem, sem a qual ninguém diz, pensa ou faz nada que tenha valor a não ser aquilo que for ‘correto’.”

« Il est bien tard pour passer à l’action. Mais supposons qu’il nous reste dix années pour enfin affronter le monde tel qu’il est devenu, à savoir de moins en moins favorable à nos existences, et à celles des autres êtres vivants. Dix ans pour un virage politique très serré. Dix ans pour nous débarrasser de nos lubies productivistes et consuméristes. Dix ans pour apprendre à régénérer une nature en voie de destruction accélérée.»

Herbert Spencer (1820-1903) was already an established figure in the fields of philosophy, biology, sociology, anthropology and with an established interest in evolution, when Darwin produced his ground-breaking On the Origin of the Species (1859). But Spencer viewed evolution in wider terms—including ‘the social organism, ethical and metaphysical matters.' He was keen to offer a complete framework of the philosophy of evolution and, in 1862, published his First Principles.

Today, we are caught in a shame spiral—a vortex of mutual shaming that pervades everything from politics to social media. We are shamed for our looks, our culture, our ethnicity, our sexuality, our poverty, our wrongdoings, our politics. But what is the point of all this shaming and countershaming? Does it work? And if so, for whom? In Shame, David Keen explores the function of modern shaming, paying particular attention to how shame is instrumentalized and weaponized.

Dieses Buch ist der Aufruf zu einer neuen Klarheit des Denkens. Denn die Probleme von morgen können wir nicht mit der Denkweise und Philosophie von gestern bekämpfen. Wenn die wichtigsten politischen und philosophischen Errungenschaften der Aufklärung - Demokratie, Menschenrechte, evidenzbasiertes Denken - überleben sollen, müssen wir eine Lebensweise und ein Verständnis der Welt entwickeln, die dem menschlichen Wohlergehen verpflichtet sind und von planetarischer Gerechtigkeit getragen werden.

You thought you had choices. Groceries. News. Medicine. Elections. Identity. But when one person starts pulling the threads, they realize something terrifying: The same few companies own nearly everything. This isn’t conspiracy. It’s receipts. SEC filings. Shareholder reports. Corporate structures hiding in plain sight. In 'The Web We Live In', JJ walks you through the aisles, the apps, the headlines, and the power structures—revealing how modern life was slowly consolidated into a carefully managed illusion of freedom.

When does liberty matter? It is often thought that personal liberty is always valuable and that it has a unique intrinsic value. In The Limits of Liberty, philosopher Sarah Conly argues that it is much less valuable than traditionally believed. Conly posits that liberties that bring good things have value, but liberties that bring bad consequences have no value. This means that in many cases where liberty has been valued, we are mistaken. Restrictions on certain liberties are more acceptable than commonly thought.

I believe that negative thinking is the worst addiction of all! You know the people who are always negative, don’t you? It’s no wonder Americans have become so self-destructive, have low self-esteem and self-worth and are constantly sabotaging themselves. America has become a culture of addiction.

Ecce Homo is Nietzsche's compelling autobiography, written in 1888, just weeks before he succumbed to madness. Nietzsche's last great work, a fascinating and bizarre text, traces the development of his own philosophy and the thinkers who influenced him along the way.

Robert Musil (1880 - 1942) schrieb Weltliteratur (Der Mann ohne Eigenschaften), aber auch scharfsinnige Essays. Vor dem "Wiener Werkbund" hielt er am 11.3. und am 17.3.37 (wegen begeisterter Nachfragen) einen Vortrag über die Dummheit. Mit feiner Ironie und großer Geistesschärfe analysiert er die Geschichte der Dummheit - bis in Musils Gegenwart, also kurz vor dem sogenannten "Anschluss" Österreichs ans Deutsche Reich.

Un libro para afrontar un mundo en permanente conflicto, vencer la resistencia de nuestro enemigo interior, obra con coherencia y lograr nuestros objetivos. La filosofía ha dejado de estudiar la vida de los filósofos para centrarse en su pensamiento. Vivimos en una sociedad en la que el pensamiento ha sido monopolizado y la filosofía cínica ha sido silenciada. Las enseñanzas de los sabios clásicos, descendientes de Sócrates, que demostraron que el ser humano es un fin en sí mismo y que no debe renunciar ni a su poder ni a su libertad de acción, han sido tergiversadas e incluso eliminadas.

In Our Business Civilization, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian James Truslow Adams delivers a sharp and thoughtful critique of early 20th-century American society. With incisive essays first published in leading magazines of the 1920s, Adams explores how business values and the pursuit of profit came to dominate nearly every aspect of American life—shaping its ethics, culture, and intellectual priorities. He contrasts the American experience with that of Europe, where older institutions such as the aristocracy, church, and professions balanced economic ambitions with cultural depth.
