¿Por qué las advertencias de hace décadas describen nuestro mundo actual con tanta exactitud? 1984 y Rebelión en la granja no son solo novelas; son profecías que definen nuestra comprensión de la política moderna. Esta colección presenta dos visiones complementarias sobre cómo se pierde la libertad: una a través del miedo y la vigilancia, y la otra a través de la mentira y la manipulación.

Rousseau's Social Contract remains, after a quarter of a millennium, one of the most controversial texts in the history of political philosophy, variously seen as a model for participatory democracy, a blueprint for totalitarianism, and several points in between.

Also included are three discourses that Rousseau composed apart from The Social Contract.

I Lasse Spang Olsens DR-dokudrama "Det forkerte mord" opklares Palme-mordet med hjælp fra en forsumpet slyngel og en korrupt kriminalkommissær, der får sjusset sig frem til, at det tyvende århundredes måske største mordskandale skyldes et slumpetræf. Besnærende - og Lasse Spang Olsens forklaring matcher måske godt med mediernes sensationslyst, hvor virkeligheden skal kunne pitches i én sætning og knibes sammen til 45 minutters tv.

An extraordinary behind-the-scenes portrait of the court of Vladimir Putin, the oligarchs that surround it, and the many moods of modern Russia that reads like a "real House of Cards"(Lev Lurie). All the Kremlin's Men is a gripping narrative of an accidental king and a court out of control...

When Imran Awan, an IT aide for Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL), was arrested by the FBI as he tried to fly away to Pakistan, the media didn’t know what to make of the story. Was this just a bank fraud case or something more? Why was this team of congressional IT administrators paid chief-of-staff-level salaries? Why did they provide fraudulent data to Capitol Police?

Ohne Frage: Wir stehen näher am globalen Kollaps als die meisten glauben. Schade nur, dass in Politik und Wirtschaft immer noch meist diejenigen das Sagen haben, die am allerwenigsten dazu geeignet sind. In Zeiten von Klimawandel, Artensterben, Atombomben, Überbevölkerung, multiresistenten Keimen und unregulierten Finanzmärkten ist das eine Katastrophe.
