Dike, la Giustizia, figlia degli Dei, sarà forse costretta, alla fine del suo destino, a coincidere con Nomos, il diritto posto dalla volontà umana uscita da una guerra vittoriosa? La Giustizia apparirebbe allora come un fatto, indisgiungibile dal fatto del potere e delle sue leggi. Oppure Dike, la Giustizia, fa segno, indica qualcosa che trascende i fatti, e che tuttavia deve coi fatti del potere e delle leggi implicarsi? Ecco l'interrogazione eterna della nostra civiltà.

Proprio come l'Idra, il mostro mitologico le cui teste, mozzate da Ercole, avevano il potere di rinascere raddoppiandosi, il capitalismo, un tempo solo occidentale oggi planetario, ricompare sulla scena del mondo riproponendo nuove e più sofisticate forme di schiavitù. Ma se è vero che dai grandi conflitti del '900 il capitalismo è uscito vincitore trionfando su ogni rivoluzione, è altrettanto vero che "l'uguaglianza è una necessità che si ripresenta continuamente, come la fame".

L'ansia della psichiatria di accreditarsi come scienza, sul modello delle scienze della natura, ha portato all'oggettivazione del folle nella più completa rimozione della sua soggettività. Quello che per un greco antico era un "invasato dal dio", per un medievale un "posseduto dal demonio", per la scienza psichiatrica diventa un "malato". L'uso di termini come mente e corpo, apparato psico-fisico, psico-somatico, bio-psicologico dicono che la psichiatria non ha mai riconosciuto l'unità dell'esistenza, ma solo la composizione delle parti.

Soul Machine takes us back to the origins of modernity, a time when a crisis in religious authority and the scientific revolution led to searching questions about the nature of human inner life.

Burns highlights the two facets of Rand's work that make her a perennial draw for those on the right: Her promotion of capitalism, and her defense of limited government. Both sprang from her early, bitter experience of life under Communism, and became among the most deeply enduring of her messages, attracting a diverse audience of college students and intellectuals, business people and Republican Party activists, libertarians and conservatives.

Wie macht man Philosophie aus Aprikosencocktails? Für Sartre kein Problem: Er machte Philosophie aus einem Schwindelgefühl, aus Voyeurismus, Scham, Sadismus, Revolution, Musik und Sex. Sarah Bakewell erzählt mit wunderbarer Leichtigkeit, wie der Existenzialismus zum Lebensgefühl einer Generation wurde, die sich nach radikaler Freiheit und authentischer Existenz sehnte. Ihre meisterhafte Kollektivbiographie der Existenzialisten ist zugleich eine höchst verführerische Einladung, die existenzialistische Lebenskunst heute neu zu entdecken.

As physicists work toward completing a theory of the universe and biologists unravel the molecular complexity of life, a glaring incompleteness in this scientific vision becomes apparent. The "theory of everything" that appears to be emerging includes everything but us: the feelings, meanings, consciousness, and purposes that make us (and many of our animal cousins) what we are.

Weaving elements of memoir, philosophical reflection, sports writing, and humour, Fail Better is an intellectual love letter to baseball by one of North America's most engaging philosophers. Kingwell illustrates complex concepts like theoretically infinite game-space, "time out of time", and the rules of civility with accessible examples drawn from the game, its history, and his own halting efforts to hit 'em where they ain't.

Frente a la bancarrota espiritual de la modernidad, este libro propone una visión renovada del mundo, la vida, la muerte y el ser humano, donde el ideal clásico de la areté -la excelencia del alma- vuelve al centro de la existencia.

Ao contrário do que muitos possam pensar, o feminismo não pretende – e nunca pretendeu – colocar as mulheres em um patamar acima ao dos homens. Ele busca combater o machismo, tão enraizado nas relações sociais que chega, muitas vezes, a passar despercebido e é até mesmo normalizado, submetendo as mulheres às mais diferentes formas de violência, seja por meio de agressões (verbais, psicológicas, patrimoniais e físicas), assédio sexual, silenciamento, desigualdade salarial e de oportunidades no mercado de trabalho, ou ainda pela objetificação do corpo feminino.
