Was wäre die Moderne ohne Religion? Welche Position nimmt Religion im Gefüge unserer modernen Gesellschaft ein? Ist sie nur ein Anachronismus, der den Wachstumskurs im globalen Wettkampf stört? Nur eine Spielart des Aberglaubens, der man privat gerne nachgehen darf, öffentlich aber bitte verschweigen soll? Dass die christlichen Kirchen hierzulande – auch unabhängig der aktuellen Skandale – ein massives Problem haben, ist kein Geheimnis. Nicht nur der Mitgliederschwund belegt dieses Resonanzproblem.

The world is currently experiencing the lowest levels of democracy we have seen in over thirty years. Autocracy is on the rise, and while the cost of autocracy seems evident, it nevertheless remains an attractive option to many. While leaders like Viktor Orbán disrupt democratic foundations from within, autocrats like Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin do so from abroad, eroding democratic institutions and values and imperilling democracies that appear increasingly fragile.

This ambitious and incisive book presents a new vision for American foreign policy and international order at a time of historic upheaval. The United States global leadership crisis is not a passing shock created by the Trump presidency or COVID-19, but the product of forces that will endure for decades. Amidst political polarization, technological transformation, and major global power shifts, Lissner and Rapp-Hooper convincingly argue, only a grand strategy of openness can protect American security and prosperity despite diminished national strength.

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn famously said that one of the biggest mistakes people make is assuming totalitarianism can't happen in their country. Many American Christians are making that mistake today, sleepwalking through the erosion of our freedoms. Live Not by Lies will wake them and equip them for the long resistance.

A deeply informed and unflinching look at the way corporations have slyly rebranded themselves as socially conscious entities ready to tackle society's problems, while CEO compensation soars, income inequality is at all-time highs, and democracy sits in a precarious situation.

Este libro es una obra esencial para aquellos que buscan comprender el crecimiento significativo del populismo en todo el mundo y sus profundas implicaciones para las democracias liberales. Explorando las raíces históricas, las características distintivas y las dinámicas contemporáneas del populismo, tanto de derecha como de izquierda, el libro ofrece un análisis detallado de los impactos de este fenómeno sobre las instituciones democráticas, el Estado de Derecho y la cohesión social.

Over the past generation, the Democratic and Republican parties have each become nationally coordinated political teams. American political institutions, on the other hand, remain highly decentralized. Laboratories against Democracy shows how national political conflicts are increasingly flowing through the subnational institutions of state politics—with profound consequences for public policy and American democracy.

Was unsere Demokratie bedroht: Joachim Gauck über die Gefahren von außen und innen – der Bestseller in aktualisierter Fassung Der russische Überfall auf die Ukraine bedroht unsere liberale Demokratie in einem Moment, in dem sie zugleich auch von innen unter Druck steht. Wie ist es dazu gekommen? Der ehemalige Bundespräsident Joachim Gauck geht gemeinsam mit seiner Co-Autorin Helga Hirsch der Frage nach, weshalb das Vertrauen vieler Bürger in unsere liberale Demokratie erschüttert ist.

¿Qué podemos aprender de la democracia griega? Esa fue la cuestión crucial que se hicieron lectores radicales como Foucault, Castoriadis o Rancière en la década de los años setenta. En un contexto de crisis, la vieja democracia ateniense se ofrecía como un marco privilegiado para pensar las posibilidades de la democracia, precisamente allí donde nació nuestra experiencia de la misma.

Den Mut wiederfinden. Die Zeiten sind sehr anspruchsvoll und fordern von vielen viel. Die Nachrichten oft schlecht, die Aussichten nicht besser. Aber müssen wir in der Sorge und Trübsinn verharren? Was gibt Anlass zu Hoffnung, Zuversicht? Und warum sprechen wir nicht über Perspektiven? Robert Habeck will mit seiner Schrift Orientierung geben. Er analysiert, wie wirtschaftliche Prosperität die Voraussetzung von Freiheit ist, wie wir die soziale Marktwirtschaft erneuern und wie wir die Fundamente der Gesellschaft stärken, was das Land stark gemacht hat.

Since the end of World War II, democracies typically fell apart by coup d'état or through force. Today, however, they are increasingly eroding at the hands of democratically elected incumbents, who seize control by slowly chipping away at democratic institutions. To better understand these developments, this book examines the role of personalist political parties, or parties that exist primarily to further their leader's career as opposed to promote a specific policy platform.

In 2011, Syrians took to the streets demanding freedom. Brutal government repression transformed peaceful protests into one of the most devastating conflicts of our times, killing hundreds of thousands and displacing millions. The Home I Worked to Make takes Syria's refugee outflow as its point of departure. Based on hundreds of interviews conducted across more than a decade, it probes a question as intimate as it is universal: What is home?

تعد الحضارة الهندية من أقدم الحضارات الأصيلة الحية في آسيا والتي أثبتت قدرة فائقة على الاستمرار وتجديد نفسها في مواجهة التحديات. وللحضارة الهندية سمة مميزة شأنها شأن جميع الحضارات القديمة، وهي قدرتها على الاستمرار بالتقاليد، وفي الوقت نفسه استيعاب العوامل الخارجية وخلق معادلة جديدة. ولذلك، تبدو منطقة جنوب آسيا كيانًا حضاريًا فريدًا يتضمن تعددًا في اللغات والديانات والأعراف والثقافات، لكنها لم تشهد أبدًا وحدة سياسية من النوع الذي نراه في الدول القومية بأوروبا.

“People not only don't know what's happening to them, they don't even know that they don't know” says Noam Chomsky, explaining American opinion conformity. Being a witness to Christian funded genocide after October 7 invited this account of my original opinions, celebrating our freedom to evolve differing opinions in a factual timeline account of decision making methodology during the rise and fall of Zionism.

Written by fifty-five of the richest white men, and signed by only thirty-nine of them, the US constitution is the sacred text of American nationalism. Popular perceptions of it are mired in idolatry, myth, and misinformation—many Americans have opinions on the constitution but have little idea what it says. This book examines the constitution for what it is—a rule book for elites to protect capitalism from democracy.

South China Morning Post's (SCMP) reporting team looks back at Hong Kong's most wrenching political crisis since its return to Chinese rule in 1997. Anti-extradition bill protests that morphed rapidly into a wider anti-government movement in 2019 left no aspect of the city untouched, from its social compact to its body politic to its open economy.

En el actual panorama político convulso, el libro nos recuerda que la responsabilidad política nos pertenece a todos. La democracia es algo vivo, que respira, y Erica Benner ha pasado toda una vida pensando en el papel que juegan los ciudadanos comunes para mantenerla viva: desde su infancia en el Japón de la posguerra, donde la democracia fue impuesta en un país vencido, hasta trabajar en la Polonia postcomunista, con sus repentinas brechas de riqueza y seguridad.

Crítica a la ostentación moral del legislador que concibe la sociedad como un parvulario Este libro parte de la constatación de que la ley se ha pervertido de manera flagrante y demasiado frecuente. Basta con echar un vistazo a las exposiciones de motivos de muchos de nuestros textos legislativos para comprobar que se han convertido en manifiestos de propaganda política en los que volcar altisonantes compromisos ideológicos y partidistas.

From their founding, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) educated as many as 90 percent of Black college students in the United States. Although many are aware of the significance of HBCUs in expanding Black Americans' educational opportunities, much less attention has been paid to the vital role that they have played in expanding American democracy. In The Power of Black Excellence, Deondra Rose provides an authoritative history of HBCUs and the unique role they have played in shaping American democracy since 1865.

The myths about Franklin Delano Roosevelt live on. For the left, FDR was a champion of the working class and the oppressed, suffering abuse as a “traitor to his class.” He gave up the lifestyle of the Hudson River gentry to lead his country out of the Depression and to victory against fascism. For many on the right, FDR was out of his depth on economics but provided Americans with the optimism and confidence necessary to prevail during the Depression and gain victory in World War II.
