Jordan Peterson nos propone un apasionante viaje por la historia de las ideas y de la ciencia para tratar de responder a una pregunta esencial: qué información básica necesitamos para vivir en plenitud. Con humor, amenidad y espíritu divulgativo, Peterson recorre países, tiempos y culturas al mismo tiempo que reflexiona sobre conceptos como la aventura, la disciplina y la responsabilidad. Todo con el fin de desgranar el saber humano en doce hondas y prácticas reglas para la vida que rompen radicalmente con los lugares comunes de la corrección política.

Back in August 2006 I visited Goa, India. A trip that affected my outlook on life, views on my country, and my attitude towards others of all backgrounds. In 2015, I finally decided to put down in writing all the experiences encountered on my journey, not least my admiration for India, it's people, and it's culture.

Il n'est pas anodin que les grandes figures sociologiques du XXe siècle, Durkheim, Mauss, Lévi-Strauss ou Bourdieu, aient été formées initialement à la philosophie. D'abord timidement, puis farouchement, la sociologie, ou encore l'anthropologie et l'ethnographie, prennent au cours du siècle leur indépendance face à la paternité philosophique pour créer la nouvelle dénomination des sciences sociales.

In a time when division is treated as a given, The Sovereign Perspective challenges the assumption that conflict and polarization are unavoidable. HRH Prince Gharios El Chemor of Ghassan Al-Nu’Man VIII dissects the root causes of today’s fractured world—political extremism, ideological rigidity, media manipulation, and the erosion of critical thinking. Rather than taking sides, he explores how societies can foster cooperation without compromising individuality or reason.

« Il est bien tard pour passer à l’action. Mais supposons qu’il nous reste dix années pour enfin affronter le monde tel qu’il est devenu, à savoir de moins en moins favorable à nos existences, et à celles des autres êtres vivants. Dix ans pour un virage politique très serré. Dix ans pour nous débarrasser de nos lubies productivistes et consuméristes. Dix ans pour apprendre à régénérer une nature en voie de destruction accélérée.»

Ser humano es un arte. No es una ciencia. Si fuera una ciencia, tendríamos definiciones aceptadas, teorías confirmadas, respuestas unívocas, protocolos y manuales para la vida. Pero no los tenemos. Ser humano es un arte. Un arte que cada individuo—con todos los deseos, incertidumbres, dudas, miedos y derrotas que son inherentes a nuestra existencia—tiene que dominar. Sólo así podremos alcanzar nuestra humanidad, la cual nos permitirá vivir en la verdad, crear belleza, ser justos, tener compasión.

Story1
Whether self-knowledge is a decision to mature or even if it is a decision for us to be recognised by our environment, the variety of the subject-matter proposes introspections with a view to understanding. For there is a crucial distinction between what one knows and what one has established as a position. Led astray by formulas of improvement, human beings lose the strength of their established position. The established position is derived from the essence of their ETHOS and not from the achievement of expediencies for survival.

Cet embarras est la mesure du changement intervenu." Paul Valéry écrivit en effet ce texte dans une époque qui vivait de grands changements, au sein d'une société bouleversée par la guerre.

Hatred is often considered the opposite of love, but in many ways it is much more complicated. It also may be considered one of the dominant emotions of our time, as individuals, groups, and even nations express or enact hatred to varying degrees. What is hatred? Where does it come from, and what does it reveal about the hater? And is hatred always a bad thing? Brogaard makes a deep dive into the moral psychology of one of our most complex and vivid emotions.

Culto della giovinezza, idolatria dell'intelligenza, ossessione della crescita economica, tirannia della moda: sono alcuni dei miti di oggi che Umberto Galimberti passa in rassegna per smontarli e denunciarne la natura ingannevole, mostrando come i falsi miti siano in realtà "idee malate", non avvertite come tali, e quindi tanto più capaci di diffondere i loro effetti nefasti senza trovare la minima resistenza. Sono i miti del nostro tempo, le idee che più di altre ci pervadono e ci plasmano come individui e come società.

In Restoring Reason, philosopher Dr. Travis Corcoran demonstrates how the liberal arts provide us with a skillset to evaluate knowledge and draw our own conclusions for clarity, confidence, and freedom.
