Die Reihe, in der dieses kleine Buch erscheint, heißt “Soziale Fitness”. Fit mit dem Thema Werte umzugehen bedeutet in Bezug auf dieses Buch: Das aufzugreifen, was allgemein über Werte behauptet wird, festzustellen, was über Werte geglaubt wird, zu prüfen, was Werte tatsächlich sind, darzustellen, wie sie in der Gesellschaft wirken und wozu sie taugen, sowie aufzuzeigen, wie man in Wertediskussionen sinnvoll mit dem Thema umgehen kann.

In this era of the climate crisis, in which our very futures are at stake, sustainability is a global imperative. Yet we tend to associate sustainability, nature, and the environment with distant places, science, and policy. The truth is that everything is environmental, from transportation to taxes, work to love, cities to cuisine. This book is the first to examine contemporary Singapore from an ecocultural lens, looking at the ways that Singaporean life and culture is deeply entangled with the nonhuman lives that flourish all around us.

Whether you're a high-powered CEO of a Fortune 500 company, a college student studying tirelessly through the night, or a hard-working member of society not living under a rock, chances are you've seen how dangerous the Cancel Mob can be. They point out problems without providing real solutions and insist on firing, doxing, and harassing others before any facts or evidence are produced. In an attempt to understand the use of cancellation as a political tactic, I researched notable cancellations of celebrities, politicians, and many others in the public sphere.

In our interconnected world, self-interest and social-interest are rapidly becoming indistinguishable. If current negative trajectories remain, including growing climate destabilization, biodiversity loss, and economic inequality, an impending future of ecological collapse and societal destabilization will make "personal success" virtually meaningless. Yet our broken social system incentivizes behavior that will only make our problems worse. If true human rights progress is to be achieved today, it is time we dig deeper—rethinking the very foundation of our social system.

Sages from Cicero to Oprah have told us that forgiveness requires us to let go of negative emotions and that it has a unique power to heal our wounds. In Failures of Forgiveness, Myisha Cherry argues that these beliefs couldn’t be more wrong—and that the ways we think about and use forgiveness, personally and as a society, can often do more harm than good. She presents a new and healthier understanding of forgiveness—one that will give us a better chance to recover from wrongdoing and move toward “radical repair.”

You might not know it yet, but you and everyone on Earth are experimental philosophers; building our view on life, and the worlds inside and outside us. We experience, research, and discover these worlds, beginning in childhood and continuing to do so for as long as we live.

In quest'opera di Friedrich Nietzsche le idee del "superuomo" e dell'"eterno ritorno" raggiungono una forma compiuta. Dopo dieci anni di solitudine Zarathustra sente il bisogno di donare agli uomini la sua sapienza, ma il popolo distratto ride delle sue parole. Dovrà così cercarsi dei discepoli cui indirizzare i suoi discorsi. Tema dei discorsi è la ribellione alla cultura e alla morale dominanti e la visione della vita come forza indomabile e della volontà come strumento di affermazione.

Das wichtigste Buch vom Autor des Weltbestsellers „Der Schwarze Schwan" Nassim Nicholas Taleb. Wir leben in einer unsicheren Welt, und das System, das sie beherrscht, hat auf dramatische Weise vorgeführt, wie zerbrechlich es ist. Und doch haben wir nichts daraus gelernt und setzen dieser Fragilität keine „Antifragilität“ entgegen. Nassim Nicholas Taleb zeigt uns indes, wie das gehen kann. In seinem Weltbestseller „Der Schwarze Schwan“ problematisierte Taleb die zunehmende Unberechenbarkeit der Welt.

Breaking Away differs from countless other books on secession and decentralization in that it considers examples, benefits of secession, and radical decentralization in a much broader historical, geographical, and theoretical context.

Das „Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei“ wurde von Karl Marx und Friedrich Engels im Auftrag des zweiten Kongresses des „Bundes der Kommunisten“ (November /Dezember 1847) ausgearbeitet und Ende Februar 1848 in London in deutscher Sprache als Programm des Bundes veröffentlicht.

El profesor de filosofía más famoso del mundo analiza los peligros a los que se enfrenta la democracia.

Von jeher muss der Mensch seinen "Stoffwechsel mit der Natur" organisieren. Für Marx war der wichtigste Faktor dabei die Arbeit. Als Prometheus, dem Mythos zufolge, das Feuer auf die Erde brachte, kam ein weiterer entscheidender Input hinzu. Seit Hunderttausenden Jahren wird es genutzt, um Nahrung zu garen und Werkzeuge zu härten. In diesem Sinne lässt sich sagen: Alle Geschichte bedeutet die Geschichte von Applikationen des Feuers.

Did the Covid-19 lockdowns and mandates serve society’s best interests? Science alone can’t answer the question. Philosophers have important things to say about it. So do psychologists, economists, novelists, and lawyers.

Spot-on, often satirical, always insightful, contributing editor of The American Mind and mother of a brood Peachy Keenan argues that the only way we can save our families, ourselves, and the world—even California!—is by embracing our inner domestic extremists, and sweeping failed notions of third wave feminism and identity politics nonsense into the garbage can of history.

If adventure has a name, it must be Indiana Jones! He's both a mild-mannered archaeology professor and an intrepid adventurer traversing the globe in search of lost artifacts. Whether seeking the Ark of the Covenant in Egypt, the Sankara Stones in India, the Holy Grail in Turkey, or a mysterious crystal skull in Peru, Indy's adventures never fail to delight audiences. Indiana Jones and Philosophy takes you on a whirlwind journey to investigate some of the most enduring questions about the human condition.

Wait, are you you, or are you the other one? Which is the evil twin? Have you ever switched partners? Can you read each other’s mind? Twins get asked the weirdest questions by strangers, loved ones, even themselves. For Helena de Bres, a twin and philosophy professor, these questions were never far from philosophy’s most unnerving unknowns. What makes someone themself rather than someone else? Can one person be housed in two bodies? What does perfect love look like? Can we really act freely? When does wonder morph into objectification?

La guerre, pour reprendre l'expression du général Le Borgne, serait « morte à Hiroshima » il y a plus d'un demi-siècle. Et pourtant elle n'a jamais cessé. Actes terroristes, conflits israélo-palestiniens et moyen-orientaux, implosion de la Yougoslavie, pays déchirés par les factions, sans même parler des autres guerres : économiques, psychologiques, informatiques, guerres des sexes ou des générations.

В книгу вошли одни из самых известных произведений английского философа Томаса Гоббса (1588–1679) - "Основы философии", "Человеческая природа", "О свободе и необходимости" и "Левиафан". Имя Томаса Гоббса занимает почетное место не только в ряду великих философских имен его эпохи - эпохи Бэкона, Декарта, Гассенди, Паскаля, Спинозы, Локка, Лейбница, но и в мировом историко-философском процессе.

The violent unease of today’s world would have been familiar to Hannah Arendt. Tyranny, occupation, disenchantment, post-truth politics, conspiracy theories, racism, mass migration: She lived through them all. Born in the first decade of the last century, she escaped fascist Europe to make a new life for herself in America, where she became one of its most influential—and controversial—public intellectuals. She wrote about power and terror, exile and love, and above all, about freedom.
