Unseen political actors and untraceable dark money influence our elections, while anti-democratic rhetoric threatens a tilt towards authoritarianism. In Corporatocracy, Ciara Torres-Spelliscy reveals the role corporations play in this dire state of political affairs, and explains why and how they should be held accountable by the courts, their shareholders, and citizens themselves.

The news is ugly, frightening, violent, insane, and relentless. Those in power are corrupt. The corporate media is corrupt. Corporate America is corrupt. Every day there is reason to despair.

PATRIOT zeigt Nawalnys absolute Überzeugung: Der Wandel ist nicht aufzuhalten. Er wird kommen.

La democracia es hoy una forma de vida y de gobierno incuestionable. No hay nadie que reniegue de ella o que no afirme querer defenderla. Pero tal éxito es compatible con que no nos pongamos de acuerdo sobre a qué nos referimos cuando hablamos de democracia. Como estamos viendo, también es compatible con la degradación de la vida pública y con el cuestionamiento de las instituciones y procesos que la encarnan. En ocasiones, la idea de democracia que se propugna se contradice con otros valores, o está sostenida en tópicos vacíos, prejuicios y mitos. Se olvida su carácter político, histórico y conflictivo.

Desde junho de 2013, com as famosas manifestações de rua, passando pelos escândalos de corrupção revelados pela Operação Lava Jato, o impeachment da presidente Dilma Rousseff e a eleição do presidente Jair Bolsonaro, o grau de polarização na igreja e na sociedade só fez aumentar. Amizades antes duradouras e relações familiares outrora consistentes abalaram-se e parecem longe de voltar à normalidade. A eleição do presidente Jair Bolsonaro, em parte, pode ser atribuída ao apoio de parcela considerável do eleitor evangélico.

Timothy Snyder ist "der führende Interpret unserer düsteren Zeiten" genannt worden. Nur wenige Intellektuelle haben wie er mehr als eine halbe Million Follower bei X und schreiben Bücher, die gleichzeitig in zwei Dutzend Sprachen erscheinen. Sein Weltbestseller Über Tyrannei hat Millionen Menschen in Washington, Kiew und Hongkong ermutigt, sich für die Freiheit einzusetzen und notfalls auch Widerstand zu leisten. Nun legt der unermüdlich gegen Putin wie gegen Trump kämpfende Historiker ein brillantes Buch vor, das erklärt, was Freiheit bedeutet, wie sie oft missverstanden wird und warum sie unsere einzige Chance ist zu überleben.

In The Tech Coup, Marietje Schaake explains how technology companies crept into nearly every corner of our lives and our governments. She takes us beyond the headlines to high-stakes meetings with human rights defenders, business leaders, computer scientists, and politicians to show how technologies have gone from being heralded as utopian to undermining the pillars of our democracies.

In Geopolitics and Democracy, Peter Trubowitz and Brian Burgoon provide a powerful new explanation for the rise of anti-globalism in the West.
