Since 2010, Toronto's headlines have been consumed by the outrageous personal foibles and government-slashing, anti-urbanist policies of Mayor Rob Ford. But the heated debate at City Hall has obscured a bigger, decade-long narrative of Toronto's ascendance as a mature global city. Some Great Idea traces how post-amalgamation, and under three very different mayors, Toronto managed to so quickly oscillate from one extreme to another, and how the city might proceed from here.

Story0
Sociologist Ruth Glass coined the term gentrification in the 1960s to mark the displacement of working-class residents in London neighborhoods by the professional classes. The Death and Life of Gentrification traces how the word has far outgrown Glass's meaning, becoming a socially charged metaphor for cultural appropriation, upscaling, and the loss of authenticity.

In The Idea of America, Darren Walker argues that we can narrow our widening divides by rediscovering our common aspirations and common good. This prescient, timely compendium introduces us to an essential leader of and for our moment—in his own words—through his most essential reflections, essays, and speeches. Walker calls for courageous, moral leadership from us all—challenging us to step back from the extremes, to lean into nuance and complexity, and to build longer bridges.

Although eugenics is now widely discredited, some groups and individuals claim a new scientific basis for old racist assumptions. Pondering the continuing influence of racist research and thought, despite all evidence to the contrary, Robert Wald Sussman explains why - when it comes to race - too many people still mistake bigotry for science.

Barcellona, Manchester o Salonicco, Torino, Bari o Genova: cosa hanno in comune queste città? Il fatto che possono essere considerate smart, misurandole con diversi parametri che vanno dai trasporti all'istruzione, dalla sanità alla sostenibilità ambientale all'innovazione tecnologica. Smart city è dunque una definizione complessa cha allude ad una trasformazione delle nostre attuali città con l'obiettivo non solo del superamento delle emergenze energetiche ed ambientali, ma anche della qualità del vivere per il cittadino e per la comunità, sul piano sociale ed economico.

Der Politikwissenschaftler und ZEIT-Herausgeber Yascha Mounk geht dem Ursprung der neuen Ideen über Identität und soziale Gerechtigkeit nach – und erklärt, warum sie ihre hehren Ziele nicht erreichen werden. Über weite Strecken der Geschichte wurden Menschen aufgrund ihrer Ethnie, ihrer Religion oder ihres Geschlechts gewaltsam unterdrückt. Mitglieder dieser Gruppen setzten schließlich auf gegenseitige Solidarität und ein eigenes Identitätsbewusstsein, um diesen Ungerechtigkeiten zu trotzen.

Solo integral es la modalidad más extrema de escalada. En su práctica, el escalador se juega la vida en cada uno de sus movimientos. Este conjunto de artículos (cien publicados y otros cien inéditos) reflejan el espíritu crítico y a contracorriente de Fernando Savater. El autor se pone a prueba en esta revisión de sus ideas no solo porque puede llegar a contradecirse, sino porque, al ser textos independientes, que no están adscritos a un medio de comunicación, puede pensar, escribir y opinar de una forma totalmente libre.

Oggi i nonni sono più importanti che nel passato: vivono di più e in buona salute e quindi si allungano gli anni di vita condivisa con le generazioni più giovani; le relazioni con i nipoti diventano più strette e affettuose, fondandosi su un rapporto di cura che permette anche alle madri di lavorare fuori casa; infine i nonni rappresentano spesso un ancoraggio sicuro nei momenti di crisi e cambiamento della famiglia, come una separazione, un divorzio, una migrazione.

Nonostante il crescente pluralismo culturale e religioso, la Chiesa cattolica resta una presenza profondamente radicata nel tessuto sociale del paese e ben visibile anche sulla scena pubblica. Nel dibattito sui valori è spesso terreno di scontro, ma anche punto di riferimento non solo per i credenti. Come si spiega tutto questo? E come sono cambiate, dal dopoguerra a oggi, la Chiesa e la società italiane?

In una scuola dell'infanzia vengono proposte bambole ai bambini e camion giocattolo alle bambine. In una primaria si parla di famiglie con due papà e due mamme. In una secondaria si realizza un documentario sulle persone transgender: esperienze educative sul tema del genere si stanno moltiplicando nel nostro paese, alimentando accesi dibattiti tra insegnanti, educatori, genitori e amministratori pubblici, oltre che sulla stampa. Ma cosa si intende esattamente per educazione di genere? Quali sono le ragioni dei sostenitori e quelle degli oppositori?
