A través del examen de múltiples fuentes Confino, muestra que la Contraofensiva no fue una excepcionalidad o una "aventura mesiánica", sino una estrategia posible en la línea de desarrollo de Montoneros, inseparable de la situación de exilio, de la historia política del país y de la región.

¿Qué podemos aprender de la democracia griega? Esa fue la cuestión crucial que se hicieron lectores radicales como Foucault, Castoriadis o Rancière en la década de los años setenta. En un contexto de crisis, la vieja democracia ateniense se ofrecía como un marco privilegiado para pensar...

Aimé Césaire eloquently describes the brutal impact of capitalism and colonialism on both the colonizer and colonized, exposing the contradictions and hypocrisy implicit in western notions of progress and civilization upon encountering the savage, uncultured, or primitive. Here, Césaire reaffirms African values, identity, and culture, and their relevance, reminding us that the relationship between consciousness and reality are extremely complex.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 B.C-A.D. 65), the chief advisor to the emperor Nero, was the power behind the throne in Ancient Rome. He is most famous for his writings on Stoic ideology, in which philosophy is a practical form of self-improvement. Seneca’s letters address the issues of life and death confronting every generation while upholding the ideals of Stoicism–valuing courage and friendship, avoiding corruption and self-indulgence, striving to achieve a good life while being immune to life’s setbacks, and enjoying life without the fear of dying.

Young of the University of Delaware, these 12 eye-opening lectures arm you with the tools of effective communication and the insight to understand—and perhaps resist—persuasion in all its forms.

Even as historians credit Ronald Reagan and Pope John Paul II with hastening the end of the Cold War, they have failed to recognize the depth or significance of the bond that developed between the two leaders. cclaimed scholar and best-selling author Paul Kengor changes that. In this fascinating book, he reveals a singular bond - which included a spiritual connection between the Catholic pope and the Protestant president - that drove the two men to confront what they knew to be the great evil of the 20th century: Soviet communism.

Carl von Clausewitz's On War is the most significant attempt in Western history to understand war, both in its internal dynamics and as an instrument of policy. Since the work's first appearance in 1832, it has been enjoyed throughout the world, and has stimulated generations of soldiers, political leaders, and intellectuals.

È ora che qualcuno lo dica: "Grazie, Occidente!". Ma sono due parole che non incontrerete altrove. Tutto il bene che abbiamo fatto, a noi stessi e agli altri, è il supremo tabù di questa epoca. Nelle scuole non si insegna più la storia vera del progresso, che è nato a casa nostra e dove ha avuto un ruolo anche l'Italia. Invece nelle piazze e nella cultura contemporanea siamo sotto un processo permanente. È ora di ribellarsi, in nome della verità. Cinesi o indiani, brasiliani o africani, il mondo è popolato da miliardi di persone che devono la loro stessa esistenza... a noi.

Esta novela recorre el siglo de la Independencia de Chile y aquellos protagonistas que la hicieron posible: aristócratas coloniales, héroes, próceres, aventureros. Los personajes reales de nuestra historia, despojados de los bronces y pedestales que siempre ocultan su dimensión de carne y...

In this new history of the conflict that defined the postwar era, Sergey Radchenko provides a deep dive into the psychology of the Kremlin's decision-making. He reveals how the Soviet struggle with the United States and China reflected its irreconcilable ambitions as a self-proclaimed superpower and the leader of global revolution. This tension drove Soviet policies from Stalin's postwar scramble for territory to Khrushchev's reckless overseas adventurism and nuclear brinksmanship, Brezhnev's jockeying for influence in the third world, and Gorbachev's failed attempts to reinvent Moscow.

The governance of natural resources used by many individuals in common is an issue of increasing concern to policy analysts. Both state control and privatization of resources have been advocated, but neither the state nor the market have been uniformly successful in solving common pool resource problems.

No es de extrañar que los clásicos chinos sobre el arte de la guerra sean tan populares en nuestro tiempo. No es tan solo el hecho de que los chinos, tras siglos de guerras, llegaron a un conocimiento profundo de la estrategia y sus circunstancias, sino la forma en que plasmaron ese conocimiento. Allá donde los manuales occidentales se centraban en las siempre cambiantes armas y tácticas, los autores orientales buscaron una visión más universal de este tema y, al mismo tiempo, más humana.

A democracia em tempo real sonhada nos inícios da digitalização como democracia do futuro se mostra como uma ilusão completa. Enxames digitais não formam um coletivo responsável, que age politicamente. Os followers, na condição de novos súditos das mídias sociais, deixam-se adestrar em gado de consumo por smart influencers, influenciadores inteligentes. Ficam despolitizados. A comunicação dirigida pelos algoritmos nas mídias sociais não é nem livre, nem democrática.

Judge, jury, and executioner, Judge Dredd is the brutal comic book cop policing the chaotic future urban jungle of Mega-City One, created by John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra and launching in the pages of 2000 AD in 1977. But what began as a sci-fi action comic quickly evolved into a searing satire on hardline, militarized policing and "law and order" politics, its endless inventiveness and ironic humor acting as a prophetic warning about our world today—and with important lessons for our future.

The Communist Manifesto contains the seeds of Marx's more comprehensive philosophy, which continues to inspire influential economic, political, social, and literary theories. But the Manifesto is most valuable as an historical document, one that led to the greatest political upheaveals of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and to the establishment of the Communist governments that until recently ruled half the globe.

Offering a new view of one of America's most important, infamously strained, and widely misunderstood relationships of the postwar era, this book tells the history of America and Iran from the time the last shah, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, was placed on the throne in 1941 to the 1979 revolution that brought the present Islamist government to power.

In 1848, The Communist Manifesto was published by two émigrés from Germany. Marx and Engels' apocalyptic vision of an insatiable system that penetrates every corner of the world reduces every relationship to that of profit, and burst asunder the old forms of production and of politics. It is still a recognisable picture of our world—the vampiric energy of the system being once again highly contentious. This is a strikingly imaginative take on Marx and what his most haunting book has to say to us today.

Tuvia Tenenbom, aufgewachsen als Sohn eines Rabbiners in Jerusalem, begibt sich auf Entdeckungsreise durch Deutschland: von Nord nach Süd, von Ost nach West, in die Stadt, aufs Land, in die Kirchen und in die Kneipen. Auf seiner Suche nach der deutschen Identität schreckt er vor keiner Begegnung zurück. Er interviewt Helmut Schmidt, Giovanni di Lorenzo und Kai Diekmann, er ist zu Gast in einem rechtsradikalen Club, er begleitet linke Autonome auf Erste-Mai-Demonstrationen.

This highly anticipated debut from Matt Walsh of The Blaze demands that conservative voters make a last stand and fight for the moral center of America. The Trump presidency and Republican Congress provides an urgent opportunity to stop the Left's value-bending march to destroy the culture of our country. Republican control of the presidency, senate, and House of Representatives for the next two years is a precious - and fleeting - gift to conservatives.

Since the Six-Day War, Israelis have been entrenched in a national debate over whether to keep the land they conquered or to return some, if not all, of the territories to Palestinians. In a balanced and insightful analysis, Micah Goodman deftly sheds light on the ideas that have shaped Israelis' thinking on both sides of the debate about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Contrary to opinions that dominate the discussion, he discovers that the paradox of Israeli political discourse is that both sides are right in what they affirm - and wrong in what they deny.
