Discourse on the Origin and Basis of Inequality Among Men by the philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau was originally written for an essay competition run by the Dijon Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1754. The question was, "What is the origin of inequality among men, and is it authorized by the natural law?" Rousseau's text is divided into four main parts: a dedication, preface, an extended inquiry into the nature of the individual, and another inquiry into the evolution of the human species within society.

A common thread throughout anarchism/libertarianism is the eventual arrival at some utopian, free society. The idea is that if “we” focus “our” efforts on educating individuals on economics, morality, history, etc., we can hit critical mass, abolish the State, and live happily ever after. While this “free world” is a pipe dream, it doesn’t mean that self-liberators can’t set up pockets of freedom in the here and now, despite the existence of the State. This respite from first realm tyranny is called second realm.

In this new and revised edition of Oswald Spengler's classic Man and Technics, Spengler makes a number of predictions that today, more than 80 years after the book was first published, have turned out to be remarkably accurate.

An influential contributor to social theory, political theory, and political economy, his conception of liberty justified the freedom of the individual in opposition to unlimited state control. He was a proponent of utilitarianism, an ethical theory developed by Jeremy Bentham, although his conception of it was very different from Bentham's. Hoping to remedy the problems found in an inductive approach to science, such as confirmation bias, he clearly set forth the premises of falsification as the key component in the scientific method.

Desde que suena el despertador nos enfrentamos a dilemas éticos. Los hay modernos y clásicos. Grandes y pequeños. Pero todos ellos definen nuestra época. ¿Cuántos bolis puedo llevarme de la oficina sin que sea éticamente reprobable? ¿Compro una cerveza por una app o bajo al supermercado? ¿Puedo añadirme cinco centímetros de altura en Tinder si todo el mundo lo hace? ¿Existe el porno ético? ¿Por qué puedo comerme un cerdo, pero no un perro? ¿Está bien pegar a un nazi? ¿Pueden gustarme a estas alturas las películas de Woody Allen? ¿Y el reguetón?

¿Sabe alguien de la UE lo que está ocurriendo en Libia? Para subirse a una patera rumbo a Europa, decenas de miles de personas han tenido que superar antes una endiablada yincana: atravesar Libia, un país sumido en una guerra no contada entre distintos Gobiernos, milicias tribales, mafias de traficantes y grupos terroristas vinculados al ISIS. El fotógrafo Ricardo García Vilanova y el periodista Karlos Zurutuza han recorrido el país desde 2011 para documentar todas las tramas que conviven en este escenario caótico.

In Thick and Thin: Moral Argument at Home and Abroad, Michael Walzer revises and extends the arguments in his influential Spheres of Justice, framing his ideas about justice, social criticism, and national identity in light of the new political world that has arisen in the past three decades.

The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind is a seminal work on crowd psychology by Gustave Le Bon (1841-1931), a French social psychologist. He observes that a crowd forms when an influential idea unites a number of individuals and prompts them to act towards a common goal. In a crowd, the conscious personality of the individual is submerged and dominated by the collective mind. Furthermore, every sentiment becomes contagious to a degree that individuals readily sacrifice their personal interest to the collective.

Tras el derrumbe de la utopía neoliberal, el gran consenso ideológico de nuestro tiempo es la capacidad de las tecnologías de la comunicación para inducir dinámicas sociales positivas.

"La República" es la más conocida e influyente obra de Platón, y es el compendio de las ideas que conforman su filosofía. Se trata de un diálogo entre Sócrates y otros personajes, como los discípulos o parientes del propio Sócrates. El tema central de la República es la reflexión sobre qué es la justicia y cómo se expresa en el hombre, lo que lleva a Platón a abordar la organización de la ciudad-estado ideal.

Aristotle’s influence on western philosophy is immense. In this work, he claimed that everything that is learned in life is learned through sensory perception. He was also the first philosopher to establish the foundational principles of logic.

Aristotle’s writings cover many subjects, including aesthetics, biology, metaphysics, logic, ethics, poetry, theater, music, rhetoric, linguistics, politics and government. They constitute the first comprehensive system of Western philosophy. "On Sleep and Sleeplessness" attempts to explain the reasons for sleeping. He argues that sleep and wakefulness are both affections of the activity of the primary faculty of sense-perception.

Écrit en 1840, les idées révolutionnaires de Lamennais possèdent un accent prophétique quant aux incidences du capitalisme sur la liberté des hommes. Les prolétaires ne sont-ils pas en effet inféodés à un système - social, culturel et économique - qui ne profitent in fine qu'aux plus riches ? La réflexion de l'abbé reste à ce sujet d'une criante actualité. Extrait : "Le capitaliste et le prolétaire sont donc entre eux, de fait, à peu près dans les mêmes relations que le maître et l'esclave des sociétés antiques."
