Anthony Appiah's landmark work, featured on the cover of The New York Times Magazine, challenges the separatist doctrines espoused in books like Samuel Huntington's The Clash of Civilizations. Reviving the ancient philosophy of "cosmopolitanism", a school of thought that dates to the Cynics of the fourth century BC, Appiah traces its influence on the ethical legacies of the Enlightenment, the French Revolution, and the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels was published in London in 1848 in its original German, and two years later in English. It was commissioned by the Communist League and takes an analytical approach to the class struggle and the conflicts of capitalism. The Communist Manifesto summarizes the theories of Marx and Engels on the nature of society and politics, claiming that the history of all societies is a history of class struggles. It also touches on their ideas of how the capitalist society of the time would eventually be replaced by socialism.

"El hombre ha nacido libre, y sin embargo, vive en todas partes entre cadenas." Estas son las famosas palabras de apertura de un libro que no ha dejado de suscitar debates desde su primera publicación en 1762. Rousseau desaprueba que algunos hombre se sientan con el derecho natural de ejercer autoridad sobre otros, y defiende un pacto o "contrato social", que debería existir y ser la fuente del poder soberano.

Vividly written, The Infidel and the Professor is a compelling account of a great friendship of two towering Enlightenment thinkers that had great consequences for modern thought. David Hume is widely regarded as the most important philosopher ever to write in English, but during his lifetime, he was attacked as "the Great Infidel" for his skeptical religious views and deemed unfit to teach the young. In contrast, Adam Smith was a revered professor of moral philosophy and is now often hailed as the founding father of capitalism.

The Declaration of Independence forever transforms our understanding of equality, liberty, and the proper role of government. Its revolutionary philosophical framework is the bedrock foundation of the Constitution and our system of self-government. Yet America’s most important document is largely forgotten, misunderstood, and even attacked —fueling a crisis in the American spirit that threatens the nation’s very survival.

Die deutsche Geschichte hat nicht das eine Zentrum, sondern die Schauplätze wechseln. Die Germanen siegen im Teutoburger Wald. Kaiser Friedrich II. weilt meist in Sizilien, am Rhein blüht jüdisches Leben, das erste »Grundgesetz« des Reichs entsteht in Prag, die Reformation beginnt im kleinen Wittenberg, der Dreißigjährige Krieg endet in Westfalen. Gunilla Budde erzählt die deutsche Geschichte von den vielen großen und kleinen Orten aus, an denen Bewegendes begann.

Prosperity, Freedom, and Order by Richard Allen Beach is a serious and thought-provoking work that explores how liberty, moral responsibility, social order, and economic structure are deeply connected. Through the philosophy of Perceptionism, Beach presents a broad vision for a society built on individual sovereignty, personal accountability, strong families, and long-term stability. Rather than offering a narrow political argument, the book examines the larger foundations of human life and asks what kind of social order can genuinely support freedom and prosperity.

Why do the best ideas produce the worst outcomes? Saint-Simon sacrificed his fortune, his title, and his health to build a fairer world. Marx devoted his life to liberating the working class. The architects of liberal democracy genuinely believed in human dignity. Yet every system they created — however noble its origin — ended by devouring the people it promised to serve.

Die Welt ist von nahezu pathologischer Irrationalität und Hysterie gezeichnet. In der Politik, in den Medien und im Internet haben Gefühlsausbrüche und Schnellschussreaktionen fundierte und sachliche Diskussionen abgelöst. Nach seinen Spiegel-Bestsellern „Bauchgefühle", „Die Weisheit des Herzens" und „Tabu" befasst sich der Neurowissenschaftler Raphael M. Bonelli mit Bewusstsein und Kognition und zeigt, wie wir wieder bessere Entscheidungen treffen können, im Beruf, in Beziehungen und im öffentlichen Leben. Raphael M.

There are questions that seem simple, but deep down they reveal who we are. What would I do if I were president? It’s not just a game of imagination or a political exercise. It’s a mirror. An invitation to look straight at our convictions, our social wounds, and the hopes we’ve kept tucked away for years. This book is born from that curiosity we all feel at some point —whether in a casual conversation, in an improvised debate, or in those moments when reality squeezes us and we think, “If it were in my hands, I would do it differently.” This is not about empty promises or campaign speeches.
