Elan Journo and Yaron Brook examine the true nature and consequences of the rise of nationalism in America, especially the so-called national conservatism. They argue that the principles and ideas of the advocates of national conservatism are ultimately anti-American, as they reject the founding principles of America: the individual rights.

In 1776 the Founding Fathers announced to the world America’s plans for independence. For the first time in history, there was to be a nation and a government dedicated to the individual’s rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. But from inception, and from both within and without, the ideals of the new nation were under attack. Without a full justification of an individual’s moral right to pursue his own life and happiness—not serve his neighbors, God or country—the nation was vulnerable, and its founding principles were slowly chipped away. In 1957 the missing ...

Profit Without Apology is a moral defense of business in a culture that treats financial success as guilt and profit as vice. It argues that businessmen—far from being exploiters—are the creators of modern life, and that their pursuit of profit is not something to hide or downplay, but to champion with pride. Challenging the dominant ethic of self-sacrifice, this book makes the case for a new moral ideal—one that recognizes production as a virtue, trade as justice, and the businessman as a moral hero.

The America Party is a scathing, unflinching manifesto for those who’ve outgrown the binary politics of fear and nostalgia. In a political environment calcified by two failing parties, The America Party offers a third pole—not a compromise, but a post-ideological overhaul. With biting clarity and sardonic realism, it dismantles the false choice between freedom and compassion, skewers corporate feudalism masquerading as capitalism, and outlines a new civic framework grounded in autonomy, localism, and technological transparency. This is a handbook for politically homeless Millennials and...

Después de más de doce años de ensayos críticos con el régimen neoliberal, en esta nueva y novedosa obra el célebre filósofo Byung-Chul Han emprende no ya un viraje, sino una verdadera superación hacia una alentadora visión del hombre. De la desesperación más profunda nace también la esperanza más íntima. La esperanza nos lanza hacia lo desconocido, nos pone camino de lo nuevo, de lo que jamás ha existido.

« La sociedad del cansancio » puede considerarse una de las obras más emblemáticas de Byung-Chul Han. En ella, con una visión casi profética, se presentan los grandes temas que el filósofo surcoreano desarrollaría luego durante más de una década, alcanzando celebridad mundial. En conmemoración de toda esa trayectoria filosófica, y por su rotunda actualidad, volvemos a presentar ahora esta obra en una nueva traducción.

Daniel Gamper sostiene que los tiempos están maduros para nuevos aguafiestas que pongan palos en las ruedas de la risa. La risa es lenguaje y, como las palabras, puede ser cortés, falsa, amigable, mordaz, insultante y discriminadora. Tras leer este libro no volverás a reír sin antes detenerte a pensar dónde, cómo, cuándo, con quién y por qué lo haces.

Thomas Hobbes's Leviathan is not just one of the greatest philosophical texts in the English language; it is one of the most important works in the history of Western political thought. Almost every major tradition in the centuries after Hobbes—from radical democracy to authoritarianism—has been influenced by its arguments. Written in exile in a period of dramatic developments—civil war and regicide—Leviathan is in some ways the product of its own special circumstances.

The Communist Manifesto, written by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels and translated into English by Samuel Moore in 1888 under Engels’ supervision, is one of the most influential political texts in modern history. Originally published in 1848, this concise manifesto lays out the principles of communism, the theory of historical materialism, and the role of class struggle as the driving force of history. Marx and Engels call for the working class to unite against capitalist oppression and envision a future society free from class divisions.
