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.

«Non esce mai di casa?» «Mai, da parecchi anni… Ad un certo punto della mia vita ho fatto dei calcoli precisi: che se io esco di casa per trovare la compagnia di una persona intelligente, di una persona onesta, mi trovo ad affrontare, in media, il rischio di incontrare dodici ladri e sette imbecilli che stanno lì pronti a comunicarmi le loro opinioni sull’umanità, sul governo, sull’amministrazione municipale, su Moravia… Le pare che valga la pena?» — Leonardo Sciascia, “A ciascuno il suo”

Cristina Olea ha escrito algunas de las mejores crónicas recabadas en sus años de corresponsal para descifrar una nación de contradicciones centenarias. La gran fractura americana ofrece, para el lector en español, un análisis único y profundo de lo que está pasando. Si para los republicanos Estados Unidos significa ante todo libertad, para los demócratas es fundamentalmente diversidad. La fractura no es nueva, pero Donald Trump y Kamala Harris la encarnan en una campaña electoral insólita.

Después de su llegada al poder, en abril de 2025, creyéndose un nuevo dios del mundo, Trump puso en marcha el mayor ataque al comercio que se ha efectuado tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Aunque se ha echado atrás en algunas cosas, ya ha sembrado lo que acabará siendo una gran crisis a todos los niveles. Vivimos en un tiempo distópico. El mundo está girando hacia el autoritarismo y el fascismo. Se utilizan la mentira y la posverdad para lograr el engaño masivo en el que estamos inmersos.

In The Last Men: Liberalism and the Death of Masculinity, the Raw Egg Nationalist himself, Dr. Charles Cornish-Dale, delivers a provocative examination of the various biological and cultural forces eroding masculinity in contemporary society.

Prizewinning historian Michael David-Fox traces the experiences of Smolensk residents between the interwar years and the end of World War II, a period during which the city and region passed from Stalinist rule to Nazi occupation and back. The result is a revelatory examination of choice and power under dueling forms of murderous totalitarianism. Exploring the life-and-death decisions of a fascinating cast of characters, David-Fox shows how deeply the Stalinist and Nazi regimes relied on the co-optation of average citizens motivated by greed and need, but always within the orbit of ideology.

In The Personality of Power, Brian Massumi retheorizes the conditions of contemporary fascism through the prism of Trump's persona. Older theories based on identification of the masses with a charismatic leader no longer hold. Rather, an affective regime of reaction agitates bodies and orients lives at the molecular level. Massumi examines this agitation in relation to race, gender, personhood, and conspiracy thinking.

Charlotte Beradt began having unsettling dreams after Adolf Hitler took power in 1933. She envisioned herself being shot at, tortured and scalped, surrounded by Nazis in disguise, and breathlessly fleeing across fields with storm troopers at her heels. Shaken by these nightmares and banned as a Jew from working, she began secretly collecting dreams from her friends and neighbors, both Jewish and non-Jewish. Disguising these "diaries of the night" in code and concealing them in the spines of books from her extensive library, she smuggled them out of the country one by one.

Paolo Di Paolo ripercorre la vita di Piero Gobbetti in modo personalissimo e con la lente di una prossimità che oggi si avverte con più forza: quella di Piero non è affatto una parentesi chiusa nella storia, nella pagina di una vecchia rivista. Al contrario, la voce del ragazzo con gli occhiali a stanghetta e i capelli arruffati risuona di nuovo nel deserto del nostro cinismo. Ricaricando di senso una grande lezione morale, invitandoci a «restare politici nel tramonto della politica», a non arrenderci mai al pessimismo e alla rassegnazione.

En unos tiempos en que ha vuelto a hacer acto de presencia una profunda crispación política, y a solo una década de que España conmemore el inicio del mayor drama de nuestra historia contemporánea, la pregunta sobre qué queremos hacer con el recuerdo de la Guerra Civil no sólo es pertinente sino especialmente relevante. Este ensayo ha sido concebido con un triple objetivo. Primero, fomentar un debate social respecto no sólo a un pasado cada vez más remoto, sino a un futuro en el que definitivamente la negra sombra de la Guerra Civil pueda desaparecer.

Il nuovo libro di Bruno Vespa si apre con il racconto dell'abbraccio mortale tra Mussolini e Hitler e del tragico epilogo della loro vicenda umana e politica, e dei regimi dittatoriali da essi ideati e incarnati.

Mit gespenstischer Klarsicht nahm Aldous Huxley schon 1946 unsere Gegenwart vorweg: Durch technologischen Fortschritt konzentriert sich politische Macht plötzlich in den Händen weniger. In Zeiten gesellschaftlichen Umbruchs haben Nationalismus und geopolitische Machtspiele Hochkonjunktur, während Demokratie und Solidarität leiden. Stilistisch brillant beschreibt Aldous Huxley das aufziehende Zeitalter einer Tech-Oligarchie – einer Welt, in der Boy Gangsters in den Regierungen sitzen und das Recht des Stärkeren die Freiheit aller bedroht.

Mussolini's Grandchildren delves into Italy's self-styled 'post-fascist' movements—rooted in historical fascism yet claiming to have 'transcended' it. David Broder highlights the reinventions of far-right politics since WWII and examines the interplay between a parliamentary face aimed at integrating fascists into the mainstream and militant fringe groups which, despite their extremism, play an important role in nurturing the broader far right.
