Den Mut wiederfinden. Die Zeiten sind sehr anspruchsvoll und fordern von vielen viel. Die Nachrichten oft schlecht, die Aussichten nicht besser. Aber müssen wir in der Sorge und Trübsinn verharren? Was gibt Anlass zu Hoffnung, Zuversicht? Und warum sprechen wir nicht über Perspektiven? Robert Habeck will mit seiner Schrift Orientierung geben. Er analysiert, wie wirtschaftliche Prosperität die Voraussetzung von Freiheit ist, wie wir die soziale Marktwirtschaft erneuern und wie wir die Fundamente der Gesellschaft stärken, was das Land stark gemacht hat.

Since the end of World War II, democracies typically fell apart by coup d'état or through force. Today, however, they are increasingly eroding at the hands of democratically elected incumbents, who seize control by slowly chipping away at democratic institutions. To better understand these developments, this book examines the role of personalist political parties, or parties that exist primarily to further their leader's career as opposed to promote a specific policy platform.

In 2011, Syrians took to the streets demanding freedom. Brutal government repression transformed peaceful protests into one of the most devastating conflicts of our times, killing hundreds of thousands and displacing millions. The Home I Worked to Make takes Syria's refugee outflow as its point of departure. Based on hundreds of interviews conducted across more than a decade, it probes a question as intimate as it is universal: What is home?

تعد الحضارة الهندية من أقدم الحضارات الأصيلة الحية في آسيا والتي أثبتت قدرة فائقة على الاستمرار وتجديد نفسها في مواجهة التحديات. وللحضارة الهندية سمة مميزة شأنها شأن جميع الحضارات القديمة، وهي قدرتها على الاستمرار بالتقاليد، وفي الوقت نفسه استيعاب العوامل الخارجية وخلق معادلة جديدة. ولذلك، تبدو منطقة جنوب آسيا كيانًا حضاريًا فريدًا يتضمن تعددًا في اللغات والديانات والأعراف والثقافات، لكنها لم تشهد أبدًا وحدة سياسية من النوع الذي نراه في الدول القومية بأوروبا.

“People not only don't know what's happening to them, they don't even know that they don't know” says Noam Chomsky, explaining American opinion conformity.

Written by fifty-five of the richest white men, and signed by only thirty-nine of them, the US constitution is the sacred text of American nationalism. Popular perceptions of it are mired in idolatry, myth, and misinformation—many Americans have opinions on the constitution but have little idea what it says. This book examines the constitution for what it is—a rule book for elites to protect capitalism from democracy.

Essa é a história de como o Rio de Janeiro pegou fogo. De como centenas de milhares de jovens se levantaram nos anos 70 e 80, e como o Exército brasileiro olhou para aquilo e tremeu na base.

In Shameless, Brian Tyler Cohen lays bare the long con of the modern Republican Party. While the radical right continues hiding behind gaslighting maneuvers, artificial slogans, and hollow catchphrases, Cohen’s unflinching narrative illuminates the realities and dangers of the ever-widening gulf between the vaunted Republican brand and their actual behavior.

Liberal democracy is in recession and authoritarianism is on the rise. The ties that ought to bind open markets to free and fair elections are being strained and spurned, even in democracy's notional heartlands. Around the world, powerful voices argue that capitalism is better without democracy; others that democracy is better without capitalism. This book is a forceful rejoinder to both views, offering a deep and lucid assessment of why the marriage between capitalism and democracy has grown so strained and making clear why a divorce would be an almost unthinkable calamity.

Cable news TV anchor Bianca De La Garza reports the news every day, twice a day. She’s a journalist and a commentator, a conservative, a Christian, and a mom. The news is ugly, frightening, violent, insane, and relentless. Those in power are corrupt. The corporate media is corrupt. Corporate America is corrupt. Every day there is reason to despair. Yet every day there is also reason to hope. As Bianca reports daily and writes in this book, the foundation of America is stronger than the evil that attacks her every day. Conservative Americans must face this evil head on, and not back down.

Die Macht von Stasi-Seilschaften im Justizapparat erlebt der Autor, seit er sich Mitte der 2000er-Jahre mit dem Thema beschäftigt. Infolge dessen wird er mit Schau- und Scheinprozessen im Stil des Stalinismus überzogen. Seiner ältesten Tochter Heide brachte der Rechtsbruch 2017 den Tod. Für seine witzigen Krimis musste er 2022 ins Gefängnis, Autorenlesungen wurden verboten.

Donald Trump's false claims of election fraud and the violence of the Capitol riot have made it unavoidably clear that the future of American democracy is in peril. Unseen political actors and untraceable dark money influence our elections, while anti-democratic rhetoric threatens a tilt towards authoritarianism. In Corporatocracy, Ciara Torres-Spelliscy reveals the role corporations play in this dire state of political affairs, and explains why and how they should be held accountable by the courts, their shareholders, and citizens themselves.

Desde junho de 2013, com as famosas manifestações de rua, passando pelos escândalos de corrupção revelados pela Operação Lava Jato, o impeachment da presidente Dilma Rousseff e a eleição do presidente Jair Bolsonaro, o grau de polarização na igreja e na sociedade só fez aumentar. Amizades antes duradouras e relações familiares outrora consistentes abalaram-se e parecem longe de voltar à normalidade. A eleição do presidente Jair Bolsonaro, em parte, pode ser atribuída ao apoio de parcela considerável do eleitor evangélico.

En el actual panorama político convulso, el libro nos recuerda que la responsabilidad política nos pertenece a todos. La democracia es algo vivo, que respira, y Erica Benner ha pasado toda una vida pensando en el papel que juegan los ciudadanos comunes para mantenerla viva: desde su infancia en el Japón de la posguerra, donde la democracia fue impuesta en un país vencido, hasta trabajar en la Polonia postcomunista, con sus repentinas brechas de riqueza y seguridad.

Crítica a la ostentación moral del legislador que concibe la sociedad como un parvulario Este libro parte de la constatación de que la ley se ha pervertido de manera flagrante y demasiado frecuente. Basta con echar un vistazo a las exposiciones de motivos de muchos de nuestros textos legislativos para comprobar que se han convertido en manifiestos de propaganda política en los que volcar altisonantes compromisos ideológicos y partidistas.

He examines the crumbling of the social fabric and the fractures of the Biden era, including the halting steps toward a Green New Deal, the illegitimate authority of the Supreme Court, in particular its decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, and the ongoing fallout from COVID-19. Chomsky also untangles the roots of the War in Ukraine, the diplomatic tensions among the United States, China, and Russia, and considers the need for climate action on an international scale.

Die offenen Gesellschaften des Westens sind bedroht, durch autoritäre, äußere Gegner, aber auch durch rechte, linke und religiöse Fundamentalisten im Inneren. Jahrzehntelang hat man radikale Minderheiten unterschätzt, durch Migration ins Land gelassen, teilweise mit einem Mulikulti-Mäntelchen kaschiert. Aber sie tolerieren nicht, wodurch sie groß geworden sind: Meinungsfreiheit und Gleichheit Aller. Identitäre von rechts und von links vergiften das öffentliche Klima, Antisemiten und Staatsfeinde haben die Masken abgeworfen.
