In the British Museum's Mesopotamian galleries, behind glass, sits a clay mask approximately three thousand eight hundred years old. The face was made to terrify. Hooded sockets sink the eyes into darkness, intestinal coils wrap the brow, and a chipped tooth grins from the left side of the mouth. The mask was paid for. Somebody walked silver from a temple administrator's hand to a workshop, where an artisan converted clay and several days of labor into a working monster, and the figure left the workshop on a delivery cart for a fee. The specific contract has not survived.

México insurgente representa el preludio de su labor como corresponsal de guerra y sus posteriores obras sobre los conflictos bélicos. Es un relato en primera persona, un testimonio de carácter épico de sus vivencias como acompañante de las tropas villistas y carrancistas en sus victorias y desventuras durante la Revolución mexicana, desde que en el otoño de 1913 fuera enviado a la frontera sur con la finalidad de atestiguar la segunda oleada revolucionaria tras el derrocamiento del gobierno de Francisco I.

The rise of the administrative state is the most significant political development in American politics over the past century. While our Constitution separates powers into three branches, and requires that the laws are made by elected representatives in the Congress, today most policies are made by unelected officials in agencies where legislative, executive, and judicial powers are combined. This threatens constitutionalism and the rule of law.

In On Xi Jinping, former Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd provides an authoritative account of the ideological worldview driving Chinese behaviour both domestically and on the world stage—that of President Xi Jinping, who now holds near-total control over the Chinese Communist Party and is now, in effect, president-for-life. Rudd argues that Xi’s worldview differs significantly from those of the leaders who preceded him, and that this ideological shift is reflected in the real world of Chinese policy and behaviour.

Extremisten werden nicht erst dann zur Gefahr für die Demokratie, wenn sie an der Macht sind – sie greifen längst gezielt Institutionen an und versuchen strategisch, sie von innen heraus zu schwächen und zu zerstören. Polizisten und Soldaten, die sich in rechten WhatsApp-Gruppen vernetzen; Lehrer, die die «Systemfrage» stellen; Schöffen, die den Rechtsstaat herausfordern; Beamte, die Projekte sabotieren: Was oft wirkt wie Einzelfälle, ist Teil einer langfristigen Strategie.

Kaum sind die Trümmer weggeräumt, setzt in Deutschland ein Wirtschaftsaufschwung ohnegleichen ein, auch ein nimmersatter Kaufrausch: Möbel, Autos, Reisen, Elektrogeräte. Mit dem Rock 'n' Roll erfasst die Jugend ein neues Lebensgefühl. 1957 eröffnet der erste Supermarkt, der Siegeszug der Discounter beginnt.

By this narrative, less regulation and more ‘animal spirits’ capitalism produces not only greater prosperity, but more freedom for individuals in society - and is therefore morally better. But, in The Road to Freedom Stiglitz asks, whose freedom are we – should we be – thinking about? What happens when one person’s freedom comes at the expense of another’s?

The Indoctrinated Brain introduces a largely unknown, powerful neurobiological mechanism whose externally induced dysfunction underlies these catastrophic developments.
