Story0
Tre anni dopo la pubblicazione del "Cigno nero", un racconto filosofico acclamato in tutto il mondo, Nassim Nicholas Taleb fa il bilancio della vita del suo libro. L'idea talebiana del "Cigno nero" ha conquistato milioni di lettori e fecondato la ricerca in campi molto diversi, dalla filosofia alla statistica, dalla sociologia alla psicologia, agli studi sul clima, alla medicina. Meno feconda questa idea si è rivelata invece in economia, l'area più immediatamente vicina agli interessi dell'autore.

Eines Morgens retten die Bewohner des idyllischen Fischerdorfs St. Piran einen jungen Mann aus dem Wasser. Alle kümmern sich rührend um ihn: der pensionierte Arzt Dr. Books, der Strandgutsammler Kenny Kennet, die Romanautorin Demelza Trevarrick und Polly, die hübsche Frau des Pastors. Doch keiner von ihnen ahnt, wie existenziell ihre Gemeinschaft vermutlich bedroht ist. Denn Joe ist aus London geflohen, wo er einen Kollaps in Gang gesetzt hat. Aber steht wirklich das Ende der ganzen Zivilisation bevor? Und was ist mit dem Wal, der in der Bucht von St. Piran viel zu nah am Strand schwimmt?

Story0
Was ist lächerlich an der Vorstellung einer Welt ohne Gewalt? Warum wird der Traum von einem friedlichen Zusammenleben als kindliche Illusion abgetan, für Frieden demonstrierende Jugendliche sogar belächelt? Arno Gruen antwortet: Weil die Kraft der Träume die Anpassung an die angebliche Realität gefährdet. Menschen werden genau dann zu Eroberern und Kriegstreibern, wenn sie Gewalt mit Lebendigkeit verwechseln. Solange diese Illusion funktioniert, wird Größenwahn für Stärke gehalten.

Story0
Das "Tao te king" ist ein unerschöpfliches und tiefgründiges Weisheitsbuch, das auch die Menschen außerhalb Asiens unmittelbar anzusprechen vermag. Als Verfasser dieses Werkes wird Laotse vermutet, die Textkritik geht von einer Entstehung des Textes etwa 400 vor Christus aus. Die Grundidee von Laotse besteht in der Vorstellung vom Kreislauf des Kosmos, die in der Beobachtung des Einzelnen liegt und erfahrbar wird. Basis ist die unauflösbare Einheit, deren Pole Yin (das Passive, das Dunkle, das Weibliche) und Yang (das Helle, das Aktive, das Männliche) sind.

Every day many people will try to change your mind, but they won't reason with you. Instead you'll be nudged, anchored, incentivised and manipulated in barely noticeable ways. It's a profound shift in the way we interact with one another. Philosopher James Garvey explores the hidden story of persuasion and the men and women in the business of changing our minds.

A leading American philosopher brings the tools of his trade to contentious contemporary debates. How can we have meaningful debates with political opponents? How can we distinguish reliable science from overhyped media reports? How can we talk sensibly about God? In What Philosophy Can Do, Gary Gutting takes a philosopher's scalpel to modern life's biggest questions and the most powerful forces in our society - politics, science, religion, education, and capitalism - to show how we can improve our discussions of contentious contemporary issues.

Marshall McLuhan (1911-1980) was a Canadian professor, philosopher, and best-selling author. He made major contributions to the study of media theory. McLuhan is well-known for his expression "the medium is the message", from his 1964 book, Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man. He also popularized the term "global village", and he predicted the World Wide Web almost 30 years before it was invented. This recording is from one of his lectures.

The single word “liberty” articulates not only basic rights, such as freedom of speech and religion, but many other vital concepts: opportunity, choice, security and even happiness. Indeed, it is a word that symbolizes the dreams and goals of every human being. Yet its very power makes it liable to abusive ends entirely opposed to its true meaning. In consequence, both individual and national freedoms can be eroded in a manner that escapes detection.

En tant que société et en tant qu'individu, nous nous questionnons sur notre identité et notre personnalité, comme sur les moteurs de nos actions. Se reconnaître dans le miroir, c'est à l'échelle collective, se reconnaître dans les institutions et les règles qui régissent notre vivre-ensemble. Pour ne pas subir la loi, il faut l'avoir choisie. Héritage historique et culturel, ensemble de valeurs et de comportements, "l'esprit français" est une attitude, une culture et une identité. Toutefois la profondeur du débat est épineuse, car est-il seulement possible de dresser un portrait qui rassemble, sans diviser ni exclure ?

In this groundbreaking work, Kwame Anthony Appiah, hailed as "one of the most relevant philosophers today" (New York Times Book Review), changes the way we understand human behavior and the way social reform is brought about. In brilliantly arguing that new democratic movements over the last century have not been driven by legislation from above, Appiah explores the end of the duel in aristocratic England, the tumultuous struggles over foot binding in 19th-century China, the uprising of ordinary people against Atlantic slavery, and much more.
