Story3
Look around you and think for a minute: Is America too crowded? For years, we have been warned about the looming danger of overpopulation: people jostling for space on a planet that's busting at the seams and running out of oil and food and land and everything else. It's all bunk. The population bomb never exploded. Instead, statistics from around the world make clear that since the 1970s, we've been facing exactly the opposite problem: people are having too few babies.

Mit kühlem Kopf durch heiße Zeiten! Während die Temperaturen im Sommer immer weiter in die Höhe schießen, müssen wir uns diesen Winter verdammt warm anziehen. Eine Situation, in die wir uns durch viele falsche Entscheidungen in der Vergangenheit selbst gebracht haben. Wussten Sie, dass in Finnland die Grünen auf Kernenergie setzen? Und dass, würden wir ganz auf Wind und Sonne setzen, in einer windstillen Nacht schon nach 40 Minuten unsere Energiespeicher leer sind? Aber was erwartet man von einer Nation, die schon mit dem Bau eines Flughafens überfordert ist.

In an immersive and mesmerizing discussion, Cohn considers what makes societies (throughout history) collapse. All Societies Die points us to the historical examples of the Byzantine empire, the collapse of Somalia, the rise of Middle Eastern terrorism, the rise of drug cartels in Latin America, and the French Revolution to explain how societal decline has common features and themes. Cohn takes us on an easily digestible journey through history. While he unveils the past, his message to us about the present is searing.

Die Menschheit befindet sich in einem gewaltigen Transformationsprozess. Die Menge dessen, was anzupacken, zu reparieren und neu auszurichten ist, scheint übergroß. Wie finden wir Kompass, Kreativität und Courage, um diese Herausforderungen weniger zu bekämpfen als viel mehr zu gestalten? Und: wer ist eigentlich wir und warum ist das so wichtig? Die Art, wie wir leben, wird sich fundamental verändern. Bisherige Selbstverständlichkeiten in Umwelt, Wirtschaft, Politik, Gesellschaft und Technologie zerbröseln.

Digital Liberty explores the imminent convergence of three pivotal themes: data, artificial intelligence, and society’s intricate social graph, and warns of a looming crisis that threatens to challenge the very foundations of liberal democracies. Two distinct paths unfurl–a dystopian trajectory marked by surging inequality, globalized elites, and societal unrest, and a utopian alternative rooted in adapting to this impending crisis.

Estamos perdiendo nuestra capacidad de no hacer nada. Nuestra existencia está completamente absorbida por la actividad y, por lo tanto, completamente explotada. Dado que solo percibimos la vida en términos de rendimiento, tendemos a entender la inactividad como un déficit, una negación o una mera ausencia de actividad cuando se trata, muy al contrario, de una interesante capacidad independiente.

Future Unveiled: The Societal Impact of Emerging Technologies reveals how fields like artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and biotechnology are reconfiguring industries and everyday life. This book examines both their transformative promise—addressing healthcare, climate, and economic disparities—and the ethical dilemmas they spark around data privacy, labor disruption, and responsible governance. Drawing parallels with past industrial revolutions, it underscores the importance of inclusive frameworks that guard against inequity and foster collaboration.

Posthuman Folklore is the first work of its kind: both an overview of posthumanism as it applies to folklore studies and an investigation of “vernacular posthumanisms”, the ways in which people are increasingly performing the posthuman. Posthumanism calls for a close investigation of what is meant by the term “human” and a rethinking of this, our most basic ontological category. What, exactly, is human? What, exactly, am I?
