Through a rich discussion of literature and case studies, he shows that there are compelling reasons to think that the police's widespread use of proactive deception and dishonesty is inconsistent with fundamental norms of political morality—especially norms regarding fraud and the rule of law. Although there are times and places for dishonesty and deception in policing, Hunt evocatively illustrates why those times and places should be much more limited than current practices suggest.

"L’homme ne peut devenir homme que par l’éducation. (...) L’éducation doit donc discipliner les hommes. La discipliner, c’est chercher à empêcher que ce qu’il y a d’animal en eux n’étouffe ce qu’il y a d’humain, aussi bien dans l’homme individuel que dans l’homme social. La discipline consiste donc simplement à les dépouiller de leur sauvagerie" E. Kant

L'idea che la bellezza sia qualcosa di oggettivo e naturale è una superstizione moderna. Infatti non è mai esistita un'epoca in cui non convivessero estetiche e sensibilità diverse. Il culto della bellezza è diventato una prigione solo di recente: quando le coercizioni materiali verso le donne hanno iniziato ad allentarsi, il canone estetico nei confronti del loro aspetto è diventato rigido e asfissiante, spingendole alla ricerca di una perfezione irraggiungibile.

We all notice when the poor get poorer: when there are more rough sleepers and food bank queues start to grow.

In this astonishing, eye-opening intervention, world-leading philosopher and economist Ingrid Robeyns exposes the true extent of our wealth problem, which has spent the past fifty years silently spiralling out of control.

Story
Moral Articulation outlines an ethical framework that allows us to embrace a version of the latter, transformative view without sacrificing notions of moral truth, objectivity, and knowledge. The book presents a view of moral meaningfulness as extending beyond what we can presently put into words, urging that expansions in our moral vocabularies often begin in dissonant experiences of conceptual and linguistic limits.

Story
"Капитал" – главный труд немецкого экономиста и политического деятеля Карла Маркса, несомненно, оказавший влияние на мировую историю. Данное издание – это основные положения и идеи содержащиеся в «Капитале», обработанные немецким экономистом и политиком Ю. Борхардтом. Как отмечает сам Борхардт, ему «удалось передать теорию учения в правильной форме», что «дает ключ непосвященному или новичку к ее пониманию». Аудиокнига будет интересна как специалистам, так и всем интересующимся вопросами социально-экономических теорий.

Story
Imperialism: The Final Stage of Capitalism by Vladimir Lenin is a foundational Marxist text that explores the economic and political dynamics of imperialism in the early 20th century. Originally published in 1917, this work was a response to the global geopolitical landscape of the time and sought to analyze the nature of imperialism as the highest stage of capitalist development. Lenin argues that imperialism represents a new and advanced form of capitalism characterized by the domination of finance capital.

Story
As head of TED for the past 20 years, Chris Anderson has had a ringside view of the world's most significant thinkers sharing their boldest ideas across every imaginable discipline. Yet there's a single theme that stands out in his mind as the essential connecting thread: generosity. It may seem simple, but generosity has played a key role in building the tools, knowledge, and institutions that have allowed civilisation to flourish. Now, in our unsettled modern world, beset by disruption and division, Anderson believes our collective future depends on reconnecting to this vital human trait.
