Tendo o príncipe necessidade de saber usar bem a natureza do animal, deve escolher a raposa e o leão, pois o leão não sabe se defender dos laços (das armadilhas) e a raposa não sabe se defender da força bruta dos lobos. Portanto, é preciso ser raposa, para conhecer as armadilhas, e leão, para aterrorizar os lobos.""Um príncipe não deve ter nenhum outro objetivo ou pensamento, nem estudar nada além da guerra e das suas regras e disciplina, pois essa é a única arte que compete a quem governa, e ela é tão forte que não apenas mantém aqueles que nascem príncipes, mas muitas vezes permite a homens de condição comum subir àquele posto.

In this timely and incisive book, Sergei Medvedev argues that Russia's war in Ukraine was not merely a whim of Putin's obsession: rather, it was the result of two decades of authoritarian degradation and post-imperial ressentiment, a culmination of Putin's regime and of Russia's entire imperial history.

Яркая, полемичная, жесткая работа Ильина, впервые опубликованная в Берлине в 1925г., когда впечатления Гражданской войны и воспоминания об ужасах "красного террора" были у русской эмиграции еще болезненно свежи. В этом посвященном «белым воинам, носителям православного меча» труде властитель дум право-консервативного крыла Русского зарубежья решительно осуждает "непротивленческую" теорию Льва Толстого с ее "сентиментальным морализмом", проводит разграничение между собственно насилием как бессмысленным и жестоким угнетением и "заставлением" - т.е. осознанным и морально оправданным пресечением некоей вредной и опасной деятельности.

Stabil, selbstsicher, wohlhabend. Langweilig, aber meist Klassenbester. Lange blickten unsere europäischen Nachbarn neidisch, aber voll Respekt auf Deutschland. Doch die Dominanz in der EU ist erschüttert. Putins Ukraine-Krieg hat Deutschlands Schwächen offengelegt: Wirtschaftlich anfällig, strategisch naiv und längst nicht so modern, wie wir denken.

This book is Khodorkovsky's account of what is happening in Russia today and what could happen in the future. Putin will not last forever: sooner or later, there will be a post-Putin era. But Russia's history has been deeply shaped by an autocratic trap: a revolution against an autocracy has produced another autocracy, followed by another revolution and another autocracy, and so on. If Russia is to find its place as a constructive partner in a global community of civilized nations, then it has to escape this vicious cycle.

In August 1989, a group of Hungarian activists did the unthinkable: they entered the forbidden militarised zone of the Iron Curtain - and held a picnic. Drawing on dozens of original interviews with those involved - activists and border guards, escapees and secret police, as well as the last Communist prime minister of Hungary - Matthew Longo reconstructs not only this remarkable event but also its complex and bittersweet aftermath.

Over the past two decades, postcommunist countries have witnessed a sudden shift in the electoral fortunes of their political parties: previously successful center-left parties suffered dramatic electoral defeats and disappeared from the political scene, while right-wing populist parties soared in popularity and came to power. This dynamic echoed similar processes in Western Europe and raises a question: Were these dynamics in any way connected? When Right Moves Left argues that they were.

In England, Tom Baldwin, bestselling biographer of Keir Starmer, and Marc Stears, influential think tank head, unravel seven myths that have distorted ideas of this country and provided ammunition for charlatans or culture warriors from both left and right. Instead of vainly promising to solve everything all at once, Baldwin and Stears provide clues for how a humbler, less grandiose, set of ideas rooted in real lives can help fix some of the things that have gone so badly wrong in recent years.
