We are able to configure privacy settings on our devices and social media platforms, but we know our efforts pale in comparison to the scale of surveillance capitalism and algorithmic manipulation. In our hyperconnected era, many have begun to wonder whether it is still possible to live a private life, or whether it is no longer worth fighting for. The Right to Oblivion argues incisively and persuasively that we still can and should strive for privacy, though for different reasons than we might think.

"The communists do not preach morality at all"; this line from The Communist Manifesto might seem to settle the question of whether Marxism has anything to offer moral philosophy. Yet, Marx issued both trenchant critiques of "bourgeois" morality and thundering condemnations of capitalism's "vampire-like" destructiveness. He decried commodity-exchange for corroding our ability to value one another for who we are, not how much our lives could be traded away for.

Inspirada observadora y apasionada de la historia, Solnit es una de las críticas culturales más creativas, penetrantes y elocuentes que escriben hoy en día.

Originally published in German in 1862 and then translated in 1912 by philosopher and rabbi Meyer Waxman, PhD, this work is considered to be one of the first, if not the first modern proposal for a Jewish homeland in Judea. Written in the form of 12 informal letters to a bereaved lady, the book summarizes arguments pro and against the proposal using quotes and anecdotes involving prominent European social leaders of the time, accompanied by brilliant insights into human nature.

Cresciuta nella Russia zarista e in seguito emigrata negli Stati Uniti, Ayn Rand (1905-1982) è stata una delle principali protagoniste della rinascita dell'individualismo nella cultura contemporanea. Nata Alisa Rosenbaum a San Pietroburgo, dopo essere fuggita negli Usa – dove assunse lo pseudonimo di Ayn Rand – si dedicò prima al cinema, poi alla letteratura e infine alla filosofia. Con il romanzo "La rivolta di Atlante" (1957) fece innamorare di sé e della sua visione del mondo una generazione di americani.

మనువు స్త్రీలకు శత్రువా? శూద్రులకు శాపమా? కులం, వర్ణం ఒకటేనా? కులసమస్యకు మనుధర్మం మూలమా ? విరుగుడా? మనుస్మృతి దళితులను అణగదొక్కిందా? ప్రపంచమంతా గౌరవించిన మనుధర్మం మనకెందుకు విషమైంది ? మనుధర్మశాస్త్రంపై నిందలు - అసలు నిజాలు తెలుసుకోండి.

Pur rimanendo al di fuori del mondo accademico, Anthony de Jasay (1925-2019) è stato tra quegli studiosi che hanno messo il problema della politica al centro della propria riflessione filosofica in modo più originale. Arrivato a occuparsi di filosofia politica dopo una giovinezza trascorsa come ricercatore di economia e una maturità professionale da banchiere, quando nel 1985 compare per la prima volta sulla scena intellettuale il suo nome è sconosciuto ai più. Eppure, la sua opera d'esordio (Lo Stato) ebbe un effetto straniante sui pochi che, allora, la lessero.

For political theorists Bryan T. McGraw, Jesse Covington, and Micah Watson, a crucial resource is to be found in natural law, a rich tradition of Christian political thought often neglected by evangelicals. Grounded in the hope and realism of the gospel, their evangelical natural law theory is deep in moral conviction yet oriented toward practical political decision-making. Relevant to all dimensions of political life, they show how an evangelical natural law framework can speak into debates about the economy, family life and marriage, violence and war, and religious freedom.

When Lea Ypi discovers a photo of her grandmother, Leman, honeymooning in the Alps in 1941 posted by a stranger on social media, she is faced with unsettling questions. Growing up, she was told all records of her grandmother’s youth were destroyed in the early days of communism in Albania. But there Leman was with her husband, Asllan Ypi: glamorous newlyweds while World War II raged. What follows is a thrilling reimagining of the past, spanning the vanished world of Ottoman aristocracy, the making of modern Greece and Albania, a global financial crisis, and the horrors of war.

Einstein said that repeating the same action over and over and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity. In John Fast's world, the two things which stand as shining examples of insanity are addiction and war. After spending years in warzones and after over thirty years as a recovering alcoholic, John has come to see the similarities between the stories told by our political leaders as they rationalise and justify their endless wars, and the stories told by chronic drunks all over the world as they rationalise and justify the insanity which is prevalent in their lives.

This book presents a public collection of four foundational documents central to the creation of the United States of America: the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. Together, these texts serve as invaluable primary sources for understanding the American Revolution and the establishment of the nation's republican government.

Érase una vez un grupo de libertarios que idearon el Proyecto Free Town, un plan para tomar el control de una ciudad estadounidense y eliminar por completo su gobierno. En 2004, en Grafton (Nuevo Hampshire), un asentamiento apenas poblado con una carretera asfaltada, se hizo realidad ese plan. La financiación pública de casi todo se redujo: del cuerpo de bomberos, la biblioteca, la escuela. Las leyes estatales y federales no desaparecieron, pero se hicieron más silenciosas: suaves sugerencias que apenas se oían en la espesura del pueblo. Los osos, en cambio, eran cada vez más visibles.

Para la construcción de esta obra, Sacristán, posiblemente el más destacado intelectual español de izquierdas de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, sigue dos reglas: primera, no separar completamente los textos "personales" de Gramsci de los textos públicos, sino considerar que la cronología es más fuerte razón de homogeneidad que el género literario; y segunda, acentuar la temática en la que se realiza la unidad de la "obra", que no es otra que la literatura política.

Have you ever wondered how Christian Nationalism shapes current political dynamics? Are you seeking a comprehensive, objective analysis free from bias and hyperbole? Do you yearn for solutions that foster constructive dialogue and understanding?

Once in a century or two, a new political theory is formulated to explain current events and offer solutions for the greater good. Past theories included the Philosopher King, Chinese Dynastic Rule, Feudalism, Capitalism, Socialism, Rightest Movements, and the New Left. With the fast spread of digital technology, the source of political power today lies in the democratization of knowledge, along with being the first to develop and exploit new systems. The instantaneous is the imperative. The unstable is now the new stability.

In Plato and the Tyrant, acclaimed historian and classicist James Romm draws on personal letters of Plato to show how a philosopher helped topple the leading Greek power of the era: the opulent city of Syracuse. There, Plato encountered two authoritarian rulers, a father and son both named Dionysius, and tried to steer them toward philosophy. At the same time, he worked on his masterpiece, Republic, in which he conceived a ruler who unites perfect wisdom with absolute power.

Whether we aspire to become the best lawyer or charity worker, life partner or celebrity influencer, we emulate exemplars that exist in the world – hoping it will bring us happiness. But this often leads to a complex game of envy and pride. In Against Identity, philosopher Alexander Douglas seeks an alternative wisdom. Searching the work of three thinkers – ancient Chinese philosopher Zhuangzi, Dutch Enlightenment thinker Benedict de Spinoza, and 20th Century French theorist René Girard – he explores how identity can be a spiritual violence that leads us away from truth.

Building a Greater Society: A Guide to Political Revolution for Millennials and Generation Z provides the tracks for young people to gain historical insight through progressive patriotism and develop pragmatism that is necessary to build a movement that can change the trajectory of America.

طبعًا ينتظر القارئ مني أن أتكلم عن بعض الظواهر الغامضة مثل قلعة اللورد فلان في اسكتلندا حيث يمشي شبح الكونتيسة بعد منتصف الليل ليلتهم أذن من يكون هناك، أو الرسوم الغامضة التي وجدها العالم فلان على قمة جبل التبت، وتؤكد أن الهامبرجر كان معروفًا منذ مليون سنة لدى حضارة أخرى.. الخ,

In this new revised edition of his groundbreaking work, Professor J. Budziszewski questions the modern assumption that moral truths are unknowable. With clear and logical arguments he rehabilitates the natural law tradition and restores confidence in a moral code based upon human nature. What We Can't Not Know explains the rational foundation of what we all really know to be right and wrong and shows how that foundation has been kicked out from under western society.
