Following the end of the Cold War, the world experienced a remarkable wave of democratization. Over the next two decades, numerous authoritarian regimes transitioned to democracies, and it seemed that authoritarianism as a political model was fading. But as recent events have shown, things have clearly changed. In Dictating the Agenda, authors Alexander Cooley and Alexander Dukalskis reveal how today's authoritarian states are actively countering liberal ideas and advocacy surrounding human rights and democracy across various global governance domains.

In Trajectory of Power, leading political scientists William Howell and Terry Moe provide a sweeping account of the historical rise of presidential power, arguing that it has now grown to the point where, in the wrong hands, it threatens to subvert American democracy and replace it with a de facto system of strongman rule, whether led by Donald Trump or someone else.

When Joe Biden took office, Eric Schmitt had been attorney general for just over two years and had been focused on tackling violent crime. As soon as he began to see the outrageous excesses of the Biden Administration, he and his team snapped into action, waging war on the Biden regime's stunning attempts at government overreach, winning some of the most important fights in modern American history, helping set the stage for a return to commonsense in government.

Von der Gründung der USA bis weit ins 20. Jahrhundert hinein arbeiteten die brillantesten Ingenieure und der demokratische Staat zusammen, um Technologien zu entwickeln, die die Welt verändern sollten. Diese Partnerschaft sicherte dem Westen eine beherrschende Stellung in der geopolitischen Ordnung. Doch diese Beziehung ist inzwischen erodiert. Statt die größten Herausforderungen unserer Zeit zu bewältigen, konzentriert sich das Silicon Valley auf den kapitalistischen Verbrauchermarkt.

Julia Ruhs war stets überzeugt, ganz normale Meinungen zu vertreten – bis sie Journalistin wurde. Sie sprach sich als Volontärin in der ARD gegen das Gendern aus und warnte später in einem Kommentar der "Tagesthemen" vor illegaler Einwanderung. Sie sprach sachlich und mit Bedacht Themen an, die viele Menschen im Lande bewegen. Aber plötzlich war sie eine Exotin im Metier. Die Reaktion war ein linker "Shitstorm", leider Normalität heutzutage. Die Politikjournalistin Julia Ruhs ist Reporterin beim Bayerischen Rundfunk sowie Kolumnistin für Focus Online.

Performative Outrage delivers a piercing examination of how manufactured fury is eroding the foundations of democracy. Drawing from experience in public administration and backed by profound insights, Brooks Williams reveals how local government, the most direct and impactful form of governance—is being paralyzed by social media theatrics, fear-driven decision-making, and the relentless churn of outrage cycles. With searing clarity, he deconstructs the anatomy of performative anger, exposes its enablers, and traces its devastating consequences for trust, leadership, and community cohesion.

Die Welt ist aus den Fugen geraten, nachdem Gefühle mehr zählen als Fakten. Vince Ebert beschreibt, wie heute Politik und Ideologie über Wissen und Tatsachen gestellt werden. Der Zeitgeist hat sich mehr und mehr von der Wissensgesellschaft und einer offenen Debattenkultur verabschiedet.

Progress is power. But our modern story of progress is a very dangerous fiction. In the pursuit of progress, of growth and expansion, we have levelled cities, flattened mountains, charted the globe and ushered in a new geological epoch unique in our planet’s 4.5-billion-year history. The idea of progress has compelled societies toward exploration, invention, and grandiosity on one hand, and on the other, genocide, slavery, ecocide, and conquest: it is the root of our civilization’s success, as well as its looming demise.

O Manifesto Comunista, publicado originalmente como Manifesto do Partido Comunista, foi encomendado pela Liga dos Comunistas e publicado em 21 de fevereiro de 1848.

Era il 1974 quando Gianni Minà incontrò per la prima volta faccia a faccia Fidel Castro, in occasione di un match di boxe all'Avana. Nel tunnel che conduceva agli spogliatoi dei pugili gli rivolse alcune domande, alle quali il líder máximo replicò: «Dovremmo vederci in ufficio, per rispondere a tutto. Siamo in piedi, qui».

Smedley D. Butler (1881–1940), the most decorated officer in U.S. military history, including two Medals of Honor, wrote a searing critique in War is a Racket. Drawing from his service in conflicts from the Spanish-American War to World War I, he exposed how wars enriched corporations, bankers, and industrialists while soldiers and civilians bore the devastating costs. With unflinching candor, Butler revealed the profiteering motives behind global conflicts, delivering a timeless call for peace.

Überall in Europa und mit Trump auch in den USA gewinnen Rechtspopulisten massiv an Unterstützung und gefährden die liberale Demokratie. Ihr Ziel ist die schrittweise Aushöhlung der demokratischen Institutionen, um ihre eigene Agenda durchzusetzen: gegen Migration, gegen die EU, gegen die vermeintlichen »Eliten«, für einen autoritär regierten Nationalstaat, in dem die freiheitliche Rechtsordnung zunehmend ausgehebelt wird. Ihre augenöffnende Recherche zeigt unter einem Brennglas, welcher Gefahr Deutschland gegenübersteht.

A bold case for reimagining the American project and making American democracy real—from a formidable new voice in political journalism.

Die Republik ist nervös und zerstritten - und sie sieht sich stärker werdenden inneren und äußeren Feinden gegenüber. In einer Zeit, in der autoritäre Regime weltweit an Einfluss gewinnen, sehnen sich viele Menschen nach einem Konservatismus, der sowohl das Land stabilisiert als auch den Autoritären die Stirn bietet. Aber ist der neue Kanzler ein solcher Konservativer?

Just as the political left uses the corporate media, academia, and the culture to advance their political agendas, they have found a new core American institution that they now exploit to expand their power: the legal system. Featuring Alex Marlow’s “prescient” (Tucker Carlson) insight, Breaking the Law effortlessly demonstrates how the American legal system has been weaponized against President Donald Trump on purely political grounds.

Ele se chama Antonio Carlos de Almeida Castro, mas é conhecido como Kakay e assim se apresenta, assim assina seus artigos, assim é identificado em suas entrevistas na televisão, assim é apontado por onde anda, Brasília, São Paulo, Rio, Lisboa ou Paris. Não é o maior e mais rico superadvogado brasileiro, mas é o mais conhecido e, desde os últimos quatro anos, o que mais se notabilizou pela defesa da democracia, no mais trágico momento de nossa História. Kakay não tem vários andares em um prédio, com salas entupidas com 100 ou 200 advogados.

In this provocative book, Thomas Chatterton Williams, one of the most revered and reviled social commentators of our time, paints a clear and detailed picture of the ideas and events that have paved the way for the dramatic paradigm shift in social justice that has taken place over the past few years. Williams also decries how liberalism - the very foundation of an open and vibrant society - is in existential crisis, under assault from both the right and the left, especially in our predominantly networked, Internet-driven monoculture.
