O mundo de amanhã será definido mais pelas dinâmicas que prevalecem na luta entre as democracias liberais do que pela evolução da ciência e da tecnologia, das mudanças climáticas ou das epidemias. A crise da ordem liberal marca o regresso da competição entre as grandes potências.

Employers are increasingly recruiting their workers into politics to change elections and public policy - sometimes in coercive ways. Using a diverse array of evidence, including national surveys of workers and employers, as well as in-depth interviews with top corporate managers, Alexander Hertel-Fernandez's Politics at Work explains why mobilization of workers has become an appealing corporate political strategy in recent decades.

An insightful look at how cross-racial friendships work and fail within American society.

Foundational study of how institutions work and how leadership promotes them. Often cited in many fields and consistently assigned to classes in a variety of departments — including sociology and business, and executive training in management and military leadership — this book is considered to have virtually created the modern field of institutional-leadership management. It is still recognized as a lively and accessible presentation of the institutionalist school's answer to traditional "rationalist" approaches. Selznick's analysis goes beyond efficiency and traditional loyalty: he ...

In The Silo Effect, award-winning journalist Gillian Tett examines the structural development of institutions such as UBS, Sony and the Bank of England. While the world is increasingly interlinked in some senses, it remains profoundly fragmented in others. As organisations become larger and more global than ever before, they are apt to be divided and sub-divided into numerous different departments to facilitate productivity. However, there is a trap to the inevitability of these silos.

In this engaging, fun, and astute investigation of a thoroughly contemporary condition, philosopher and former pro skater Nick Riggle argues that our collective interest in being awesome (and not sucking) marks a new era in American culture, one that is shaped by relatively recent social, political, and technological shifts.

Ein fundiertes Plädoyer für eine Gesellschaft, die der Verfügbarkeit der Welt Grenzen setzt Der Soziologie-Bestseller als Hörbuch! Das zentrale Bestreben der Moderne gilt der Vergrößerung der eigenen Reichweite, des Zugriffs auf die Welt: Diese verfügbare Welt ist jedoch, so Hartmut Rosas brisante These, eine verstummte, mit ihr gibt es keinen Dialog mehr. Gegen diese fortschreitende Entfremdung zwischen Mensch und Welt setzt Rosa die "Resonanz", als klingende, unberechenbare Beziehung mit einer nicht-verfügbaren Welt.

Mehr denn je sind wir damit beschäftigt, das Limit des Zumutbaren neu zu justieren. Wo liegt die Grenze des Sagbaren? Ab wann ist eine Berührung eine Belästigung? Svenja Flaßpöhler tritt einen Schritt zurück und beleuchtet den Glutkern des Konflikts: die zunehmende Sensibilisierung des Selbst und der Gesellschaft. "Sensibel" ist ein hochaktuelles, philosophisches und gleichzeitig unterhaltsames Hörbuch, das die Sensibilität dialektisch durchleuchtet und zu dem Schluss kommt: Die Resilienz ist die Schwester der Sensibilität. Die Zukunft meistern können sie nur gemeinsam.

Le monde a tellement changé que les jeunes doivent tout réinventer. Nos sociétés occidentales ont déjà vécu deux révolutions : le passage de l'oral à l'écrit, puis de l'écrit à l'imprimé. Comme chacune des précédentes, la troisième, tout aussi décisive, s'accompagne de mutations politiques, sociales et cognitives. Ce sont des périodes de crises. De l'essor des nouvelles technologies, un nouvel humain est né : Michel Serres le baptise "Petite Poucette" - clin d'œil à la maestria avec laquelle les messages fusent de ses pouces.

Few things feel better than early love. We feel like we are flying. At that time, Nature adds its endorsement and accelerant to make sure survival concerns do not preempt going through the actions that have a high likelihood of making children. This force—the Medulla Obligation—is a compilation of hormones and romantic notions meant to enslave us to loves duties.

Since 2010, Toronto's headlines have been consumed by the outrageous personal foibles and government-slashing, anti-urbanist policies of Mayor Rob Ford. But the heated debate at City Hall has obscured a bigger, decade-long narrative of Toronto's ascendance as a mature global city. Some Great Idea traces how post-amalgamation, and under three very different mayors, Toronto managed to so quickly oscillate from one extreme to another, and how the city might proceed from here.

Did the Covid-19 lockdowns and mandates serve society’s best interests? Science alone can’t answer the question. Philosophers have important things to say about it. So do psychologists, economists, novelists, and lawyers.

Provocative political commentator Arianna Huffington yanks back the curtain on the unholy alliance of CEOs, politicians, lobbyists, and Wall Street bankers who have shown a brutal disregard for those in office cubicles and on factory floors.

El concepto de ignorancia necesita ser reevaluado, porque estamos atravesando un cambio revolucionario en la naturaleza del conocimiento. El desarrollo de la genética, la neurociencia y el big data ha cambiado la manera en que entendemos lo que puede conocerse sobre una persona. Los nuevos tipos de información traen aparejadas nuevas angustias, agravadas por lo difícil que resulta determinar con exactitud qué significará dicha información, quiénes tendrán acceso a ella y quiénes podrán usarla o manipularla.

A quick, brief, and to the point look at what social exchange theory is.

Posvátná prostitutka ztělesňuje jak sexuální, tak duchovní stránku ženy. Je symbolem fyzické rozkoše a duchovní extáze, zároveň však zůstává panenská. Její panenství nemá nic společného s fyzickým stavem – je vyjádřením jejího vnitřního postoje. Nespokojuje se s rolí pouhého odrazu muže, ať už jde o otce, bratra, milence, manžela nebo syna. Je vnitřně sjednocená sama se sebou, dělá to, co dělá, nikoli z touhy, aby se líbila, získala nad druhými moc nebo si vydobyla lásku.

Over the centuries, two important beliefs arose in Europe: a faith that man could order his own destiny and that progress was normal. By 1900, doubts arose concerning traditional Western values. The continuing problems of the world's poor, environmental deterioration, the inequality of women, and continued warfare pose real questions about the advancement of the human race.

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.
