LA ÉTICA PROTESTANTE Y EL ESPÍRITU DEL CAPITALISMO: A través de un análisis meticuloso, Weber argumenta que la ética protestante, especialmente la calvinista, con su énfasis en la disciplina, el trabajo duro y la frugalidad, creó un terreno fértil para el florecimiento del capitalismo. Esta obra pionera no solo explora la relación entre religión y economía, sino que también desafía nuestra comprensión de cómo los valores culturales y las ideologías pueden dar forma a sistemas económicos enteros, haciendo de este libro un texto fundamental en sociología, economía e historia.

Much is known about what Europeans did in Africa, yet very little is known about Africa's history before its colonization. In this surprising exploration, Max Siollun uncovers societies that were not part of a backward "Dark Continent," but which instead had rich lore to rival the ancient Greeks and Romans. This story of a dynamic and artistic people is a vital listen for those who want to discover a forgotten era of West Africa.

In The Management of Savagery, Max Blumenthal excavates the real story behind America's dealings with the world and shows how the extremist forces that now threaten peace across the globe are the inevitable flowering of America's imperial designs. Washington's secret funding of the mujahedin provoked the Russian invasion of Afghanistan in 1979. With guns and money, the United States has ever since sustained the extremists, including Osama Bin Laden, who have become its enemies.

This timely book explores the alarming rise of ransomware: malicious software blocking users from their systems or data until they've paid money to regain access or to prevent the release of sensitive information. High-profile British examples of the twenty-first century have targeted national libraries and healthcare organizations; in the US, hackers of Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley Health Network held patient data hostage—when their demands went unmet, they published topless photographs of women with breast cancer.

Max Czollek's De-Integrate! is a polemical, often humorous examination of Jewish life in contemporary Germany that speaks to the position of minorities the world over. Rooted in sociological theory, the book offers an engaging and approachable critique of Germany's much-lauded traditions of memory culture and Vergangenheitsbewältigung—its "successful" negotiation of its Nazi past.

Als Max Schrems von Facebook alle über ihn vorliegenden Daten verlangte, bekam er 1.200 A4-Seiten, darauf auch viele von ihm gelöschte Informationen. Mit seinem daraufhin angestrengten Verfahren gegen Facebook wurde er zum international beachteten David, der gegen die Goliaths des Internets antritt. Er erklärt in Kämpf um deine Daten den Datenwahnsinn so einfach wie Jamie Oliver das Kochen: Wie Konzerne ihre Kunden durchleuchten, auch ohne dass diese ihre Daten offenlegen. Wie aus harmlosen Daten neue, hoch persönliche Informationen oder sogar unsere zukünftigen Gedanken hochgerechnet werden.

For most of the 20th century, the American founding has been presented as a struggle between social classes over issues arising primarily within, rather than outside, the United States. But in recent years, new scholarship has instead turned to the international history of the American union to interpret both the causes and the consequences of the US Constitution. Max M. Edling argues that the Constitution was created to defend US territorial integrity and the national interest from competitors in the western borderlands and on the Atlantic Ocean.

Max Weber stellt sich in diesem Werk die zentrale Frage, was die abendländische Moderne so besonders macht und den ihr spezifischen wirtschaftlichen Aufschwung im 16. und 17. Jahrhundert voran trieb. Dabei analysiert er die Ursprünge und Voraussetzungen des Kapitalismus und entdeckt eine bestimmte protestantische Ethik, die zu dieser Zeit in Mitteleuropa und Amerika vorherrschte. Im Zuge seiner Analyse untersucht er die Ausbreitung des Protestantismus und wie diese den Kapitalismus begünstige. Die protestantischen Puritaner seien dabei zunächst religiös motiviert gewesen.

STUDIUM ZŁA W JEGO NAJCZYSTSZEJ POSTACI. Historia człowieka, który przedłożył szalone idee nad życie całych narodów. Opowieść o drodze do bezgranicznej władzy. Drodze usłanej trupami, krwawymi pieniędzmi oraz psychopatycznym cynizmem. Drodze tajnego agenta, zdrajcy i bezwzględnego ideologa opętanego manią wielkości. TWARZE SIĘ ZMIENIAJĄ, DYKTATOR ZOSTAJE TEN SAM... Tym razem prawda jest bardziej przerażająca od najmakabryczniejszej fikcji.

With its signature "DARE to keep kids off drugs" slogan and iconic t-shirts, DARE (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) was the most popular drug education program of the 1980s and 1990s. But behind the cultural phenomenon is the story of how DARE and other antidrug education programs brought the War on Drugs into schools and ensured that the velvet glove of antidrug education would be backed by the iron fist of rigorous policing and harsh sentencing.

"L'Éthique protestante et l'esprit du capitalisme", de Max Weber, est une des œuvres fondatrices de la sociologie moderne. À partir du constat de l'inégalité sociale entre protestants et catholiques en Allemagne, Weber émet des hypothèses qui expliqueraient ces différences. D'après Weber, la réforme protestante est à l'origine de l'éthique du travail du capitalisme.

Washington doesn’t have the luxury of simply avoiding insurgencies, so it needs to figure out how to fight them better. Drawn from more than a decade of war, here are 10 lessons for doing so.

In Goliath, New York Times best-selling author Max Blumenthal takes us on a journey through the badlands and high roads of Israel-Palestine, painting a startling portrait of Israeli society under the siege of increasingly authoritarian politics as the occupation of the Palestinians deepens. Beginning with the national elections carried out during Israel's war on Gaza in 2008/9, which brought into power the country's most right-wing government to date, Blumenthal tells the story of Israel in the wake of the collapse of the Oslo peace process.

The Parkland school shooting was the most avoidable mass murder in American history. And the policies that made it inevitable have spread to your school....

Bright Green Lies exposes the hypocrisy and bankruptcy of leading environmental groups and their most prominent cheerleaders. The best-known environmentalists are not in the business of speaking truth, or even holding up rational solutions to blunt the impending ecocide, but instead indulge in a mendacious and self-serving delusion that provides comfort at the expense of reality. They fail to state the obvious: We cannot continue to wallow in hedonistic consumption and industrial expansion and survive as a species.
