Extreme polarization in American politics is perhaps the most confounding political phenomenon of our time.

Published in 1922 during those dark and dreary years of socialism’s near-complete triumph, Socialism stunned the socialist world. Mises has given us a profoundly important treatise that assaults socialism in all its guises, a work that discusses every major aspect of socialism and leaves no stone unturned. A few of the numerous topics discussed include the success of socialist ideas; life under socialism: art and literature, science and journalism; economic calculation under socialism; the ideal of equality; and Marx’s theory of monopolies.

In this visit to New York's 92nd Street Y, Bernard Lewis discusses the Islamic doctrine of Holy War and its manipulation by modern extremists.

Renowned French philosopher, journalist, and filmmaker Bernard-Henri Levy speaks with The New Yorker's Adam Gopnik about the often-fraught relationship between France and its Jewish population, and between America and France because of the situation between France and its Jews.

« J’ai eu dans ma vie beaucoup de richesses qui n’avaient rien à voir avec l’argent… Lorsque je quitterai ce monde, je sais que je laisserai à mon peuple tant chéri une autre richesse, impalpable, mais réelle : celle d’un pays possible, mais tout de même d’un pays à faire. »

No political concept is more used, and misused, than that of democracy. Nearly every regime today claims to be democratic, but not all "democracies" allow free politics, and free politics existed long before democratic franchises. This book is a short account of the history of the doctrine and practice of democracy, from ancient Greece and Rome through the American, French, and Russian revolutions, and of the usages and practices associated with it in the modern world.

To the original text of what has become a classic of American historical literature, Bernard Bailyn adds a substantial essay, "Fulfillment", as a postscript.

Weaving in fifty years of experience with Israel, Bernard-Henri Lévy analyzes global responses to October 7, the new virulent waves of the oldest hatred in the world: anti-Semitism, why Israel is waging this existential war against barbarism alone, and what’s at stake for Israel and the world.

En dix ans, les exportations mondiales ont augmenté trois fois plus vite que la production. Dans le même temps, les investissements internationaux ont été multipliés par dix. La mondialisation concerne la vie de tous, même si bien peu ont le sentiment d'avoir une prise sur elle. Elle existe, en réalité, depuis la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle, mais il est encore difficile aujourd'hui d'en comprendre les rouages.

In Algeria è finita l'era di Bouteflika, l'ottantaduenne presidente che, dopo aver dominato la politica algerina e ricoperto per 20 anni la carica, si è dimesso dopo settimane di manifestazioni di piazza. Sono state indette nuove elezioni presidenziali per l'estate, ma le proteste non si sono placate e hanno messo nel mirino il sistema di potere incentrato sul clan dell'ex presidente e i militari, che cercano di rimanere al comando del paese.

"L'Europa è in pericolo. Il programma comune delle forze populiste che stanno dilagando in tutto il continente vuole interrompere ogni progetto di costruzione, ritrovare una cosiddetta "anima delle nazioni", rilanciare "un'identità perduta" che non esiste se non nella fantasia dei demagoghi. La mia scommessa è sull'Europa, la mia fede è in questa grande Idea di cui i nostri padri ci hanno trasmesso l'eredità, la convinzione che lei sola avrà la forza, domani, di scongiurare il ritorno dei demoni, quello dei totalitarismi e quello di conseguenza della crisi e della miseria."

Over two millennia after its compilation, the Politics still offers much to consider with regards to political science.

Militarized police officers with tanks and drones. Pervasive government surveillance and profiling. Social media that distract and track us. All of these, contends Bernard E. Harcourt, are facets of a new and radical governing paradigm in the United States - one rooted in the modes of warfare originally developed to suppress anticolonial revolutions and, more recently, to prosecute the war on terror. The Counterrevolution is a penetrating and disturbing account of the rise of counterinsurgency, first as a military strategy but increasingly as a way of ruling ordinary Americans.

Enunciar un mañana es condenarlo a que no exista o postergarlo a generaciones venideras. Está demasiado lejos. Mañana es una utopía, necesaria para desplazar el horizonte del presente, pero puede que sea siempre inalcanzable. Pasado mañana, en cambio, está a la vuelta de la esquina. Lo tocamos con la punta de los dedos. Es un telescopio que transforma el futuro en presente y que enuncia de forma sólida y propositiva una alternativa para España y para el mundo.
