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.

Story0
Scientists, journalists, and politicians increasingly tell us that human impacts on climate constitute the single greatest threat facing our planet and may even bring about the extinction of our species. Yet behind these anxieties lies an older, much deeper fear about the power that climate exerts over us. The Empire of Climate traces the history of this idea and its pervasive influence over how we interpret world events and make sense of the human condition, from the rise and fall of ancient civilizations to the afflictions of the modern psyche.

Un lusso che non possiamo più permetterci, per alcuni. Un pilastro a tutela dei diritti e dell'accesso ai beni comuni, per altri. I welfare state sono esperienze squisitamente nazionali, esposti alle sfide della crisi e della globalizzazione, ma anche delle trasformazioni demografiche e culturali. Questo audiolibro ci spiega come sono nati e come si sono sviluppati, dando forma a modelli diversi di cittadinanza.

America's power is in decline, its foreign policy adrift, its allies alienated, its soldiers trapped in a war that even generals regard as unwinnable. What has happened these past eight years is well known. Why it happened continues to puzzle. Daydream Believers combines in-depth reporting and analysis to explain how George W. Bush and his aides got so far off track - and why much of the nation followed.

Story0
In the graveyard of economic ideology, dead ideas still stalk the land. The recent financial crisis laid bare many of the assumptions behind market liberalism--the theory that market-based solutions are always best, regardless of the problem. For decades, their advocates dominated mainstream economics, and their influence created a system where an unthinking faith in markets led many to view speculative investments as fundamentally safe.

Il reddito di cittadinanza è l'espressione più autenticamente universale di un welfare state volto a fornire un sostegno economico a tutti, a prescindere dal reddito e dalla disponibilità a lavorare. Un'idea antica, affascinante, ma mai realizzata. Perché? Contrapposto al reddito di cittadinanza è il reddito minimo, un trasferimento destinato alle sole persone indigenti e disponibili a un reinserimento lavorativo. Come funziona nei paesi che lo hanno introdotto? Cosa si sta facendo in Italia?

Per alcuni porterebbe alla semplificazione del sistema tributario e a una pressione fiscale meno opprimente per chi lavora, favorendo la crescita economica e contrastando l'evasione. Per altri, che la identificano con una bassa pressione fiscale, la flat tax sarebbe una riforma a vantaggio dei più ricchi che costringerebbe lo Stato a tagliare la spesa sociale. L'audiolibro illustra con chiarezza caratteristiche e posta in gioco della flat tax: vantaggi e limiti, esperienze in altri paesi, effetti possibili delle proposte avanzate negli ultimi anni in Italia.
