The Logic of Estrangement

Reason in an Unreasonable Form

Handbooks in Philosophy

The Handbook offers a theoretical and practical guide to transformative philosophies, drawing on past theories still viable today and on contemporary approaches which prioritize key transformative notions. Bringing together international top scholars, this handbook breaks ground in its scope and depth, its erudition and originality, its theory and practice. The new field it defines ultimately addresses the question of what philosophy is, what it has been, and what it can be. 
Part I offers historical perspectives on the transformative power of philosophy from antiquity to the 21st century. Addressing first various epochs in Western philosophy (Ancient and Hellenistic Philosophies; Late modern and Medieval; Renaissance and modern philosophies), it also formulates the impact that Eastern philosophies, chiefly Hinduism, Buddhism, and Daoism, had on the west, and without which the last two centuries of transformative philosophy cannot be understood.
 Part II is divided thematically rather than historically and focuses on contemporary approaches to transformative philosophies. Each chapter addresses in depth one central notion, which, when brought to bear on practice, helps to define a new field in transformative philosophy. They include awareness, wonder, imagination, will, decision, experience, understanding, birth, autonomy, love, integrity, self-esteem, meaning, joy, humor, and happiness. 
By unraveling the transformative power of philosophy, this handbook hopes to strengthen philosophy's place in the academe as a force to reckon with. By enabling personal change for the benefit of the individual and the society in which we live, it answers contemporary concerns. By making explicit the transformative power of various philosophies, of different philosophic notions, and of philosophy itself as an ambitious discipline which critically changes one's mind through the mixture of rational and non-rational elements, the Transformative Philosophy Handbook lays the ground for a new philosophic field, whose influence will transcend narrow concerns. This Handbook appeals to students and researchers in academic philosophy and related disciplines.

Handbook of Transformative Philosophy

Wirtschaft und Ethik stehen heute in einem komplexen Spannungsfeld zueinander und gehören doch untrennbar zusammen. 
Unternehmen agieren in globalen Märkten, in denen Innovationen, ökologische Herausforderungen, gesellschaftliche Erwartungen und eine zunehmende Regulierung aufeinandertreffen. Zugleich verschärfen geopolitische Konflikte und Kriege die Risiken vor Allem für die direkt betroffenen Menschen, aber auch für die weltweite Wirtschaft.
Gleichzeitig wachsen die Forderungen an ein verantwortungsvolles Handeln von Unternehmen. Entscheidungen, die sich allein an Effizienz oder kurzfristigen Erfolgskennzahlen orientieren, gelten als nicht mehr ausreichend.
Dieses Buch zeigt, dass Wirtschaft, Ethik und Corporate Governance untrennbar miteinander verbunden sind. Denn sie bilden das Fundament einer modernen, zukunftsfähigen Unternehmensführung. Wer verstehen will, wie Unternehmen heute geführt werden sollten, muss alle drei Perspektiven berücksichtigen.

Wirtschaftsethik und Corporate Governance

Wissenschaft und Forschung müssen heute klarer reflektieren und deutlicher erklären, was sie tun und warum sie es tun. Dies betrifft nicht nur die Verwendung von öffentlichen Ressourcen, sondern auch Forschungsziele und methodische Ansätze. Insbesondere sind Wissenschaft und Forschung sehr viel stärker als früher zu zeigen aufgefordert, dass ihr Handeln ethisch verantwortungsvoll ist. Dafür müssen ethische Grundprinzipien und verfassungsmäßige Grundrechte regelmäßig gegeneinander abgewogen werden. Heutzutage sind also bereits bei der konzeptionellen Planung ethische und rechtliche Abwägungsfragen mitzubedenken und überzeugend zu beantworten. Neben fachwissenschaftlicher Expertise benötigen Forschende deshalb auch forschungsethische sowie rechtliche Kenntnisse. Ein verbreiteter Ansatz, um verantwortungsvolle Forschung zu gewährleisten, besteht darin, Mechanismen der akademischen Selbstregulierungen zu implementieren. Dies führt dazu, dass Forschende vermehrt in Gremien tätig werden, die die Projekte von anderen Forschenden ethisch begutachten. Der vorliegende Band bietet deshalb einen praxisorientierten Ansatz, der es Forschenden ermöglichen soll, sowohl ethische Probleme ihrer eigenen Arbeit zu identifizieren als auch Begutachtungstätigkeiten zu übernehmen. Er führt in etablierte Konzepte zur Handhabung ethischer Herausforderungen ein und vermittelt auch erforderliches rechtliches Hintergrundwissen für die Teilhabe in Ethik-Gremien und Kommissionen. Schließlich erläutern die Autoren, wie diese Konzepte genutzt werden können, um zu überzeugenden Lösungen für eine verantwortungsvolle Forschung zu gelangen.

Why unregulated free-market capitalism endangers democracy—and what to do about it. In Private Power and Democracy’s Decline, Mordecai Kurz explores the relationship between free-market capitalism and democracy. He shows that technology has made capitalism different from what was envisioned in the Age of Enlightenment. Technology creates centers of market power and monopoly concentration that result in a society in which some people are enriched immensely while many workers’ livelihoods are often destroyed. Contrary to conventional thinking, technological competition does not remove market power, which becomes a permanent fixture of free-market capitalism. Such private power creates political inequality and generates forces that cause democracy’s decline and possible destruction. Applying these ideas to the US, Kurz shows that today’s problems begin in the 1980s with the policy of unregulated free-market capitalism. Coupled with the information technology revolution, this created a techno-winner-takes-all economy—leading to a second Gilded Age of unsustainable inequality and extreme political polarization. In the last 50 years, the economy “boomed” for some while leaving the majority of America’s workers behind. Kurz concludes that only regulated capitalism can support democracy so that the benefits of technology are more equally shared and no person’s livelihood is destroyed to enable others to be enriched. To save democracy, he proposes a “restoration-of-livelihood” policy, offering firms managerial flexibility to maintain rising productivity while ensuring that technology does not destroy the livelihood of others.

How to Make Capitalism Support Democracy

Private Power and Democracy's Decline

The definitive history of Russia’s most secret spy program, from the earliest days of the Soviet Union to Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, and a revelatory examination of how that hidden history shaped both Russia and the West. “Shaun Walker relates these real-life spy stories with breathtaking aplomb.” —Wall Street Journal More than a century ago, the new Bolshevik government began sending Soviet citizens abroad as deep-cover spies, training them to pose as foreign aristocrats, merchants, and students. Over time, this grew into the most ambitious espionage program in history. Many intelligence agencies use undercover operatives, but the KGB was the only one to go to such lengths, spending years training its spies in language and etiquette, and sending them abroad on missions that could last for decades. These spies were known as &nbsp;“illegals.” During the Second World War, illegals were dispatched behind enemy lines to assassinate high-ranking Nazis. Later, in the Cold War, they were sent to assimilate and lie low as sleepers in the West. The greatest among them performed remarkable feats, while many others failed in their missions or cracked under the strain of living a double life. Drawing on hundreds of hours of interviews, as well as archival research in more than a dozen countries, Shaun Walker brings this history to life in a page-turning tour de force that takes us into the heart of the KGB’s most secretive program. A riveting spy drama peopled with richly drawn characters, The Illegals also uncovers a hidden thread in the story of Russia itself. As Putin extols Soviet achievements and the KGB’s espionage prowess, and Moscow continues to infiltrate illegals across the globe, this timely narrative shines new light on the long arc of the Soviet experiment, its messy aftermath, and its influence on our world at large.

How to build innovation and industrial ecosystems in the US that support global leadership in priority technologies of the future. A new world order is emerging, and within it, US priorities are shifting. A reconfiguration of global supply chains. The redrawing of geopolitical lines and alliances with increasing threats of conflict. A rise in weather-related disasters. And the emergence of transformative technologies. All these factors are converging to create an environment filled with uncertainty and change—but also possibility. For the country to flourish as well as defend and secure its interests, it must build on its decades of experience in developing frontier technologies and globally competitive industries through investments into priority technologies for the twenty-first century. This volume, edited by Elisabeth Reynolds, presents a high-level introduction to some of the key areas where the United States must excel and lead in the coming decades to ensure both national and economic security. The book provides an overview of six key priority technologies—critical minerals, semiconductors, biomanufacturing, quantum computing, drones, and advanced manufacturing—needed to build the innovation and industrial ecosystems that will keep the US secure and drive shared prosperity. Contributors: Elsa A. Olivetti, Jesús del Alamo, J. Christopher Love, William D. Oliver, Jonathan Ruane, and Fiona E. Murray.

This book challenges the view that legal positivism should be reduced to a conceptual analysis of legal validity. Instead, Elena Namli reclaims legal positivism as a theory of the relationship between law, morality, and politics. Presenting novel interpretations of the classical works of Herbert L. A. Hart, Joseph Raz, and Jürgen Habermas, Namli frames legal positivism as a theory that makes possible a moral and political critique of valid law. Moreover, this book defends the dialectical relationship between law, politics, and morality by combining a positivist approach to legal validity with a constructivist ethical theory which strengthens the critical potential of legal positivism. Legally valid norms may not always be morally justified, but understanding the moral quality of legal regulations is essential for comprehending modern law.

The Che Guevara Library

En una carta a su madre en 1954, un joven Ernesto Guevara escribió: "Las Américas serán el teatro de mis aventuras de una manera mucho más significativa de lo que yo hubiera creído". En America Latina se&nbsp;narra la historia de esas aventuras, trazando la evolución del Che desde el joven e impresionable estudiante de medicina al "guerrillero heroico", asesinado a sangre fría en Bolivia. A lo largo de diecisiete años, esta antología se nutre de los archivos personales de su familia y ofrece lo mejor de los escritos del Che: ejemplos de su periodismo, ensayos, discursos, cartas e incluso poemas. A medida que el Che documenta sus primeros viajes por América Latina, su participación en las revoluciones guatemalteca y cubana, y su ascenso a la prominencia internacional bajo el mando de Fidel Castro, vemos cómo su ferviente compromiso con la justicia social moldeó y fue moldeado por el continente al que llamó hogar. Casi la mitad de este libro se publica por primera vez y es anterior a la llegada del Che a Cuba con la expedición guerrillera de Fidel Castro en 1956. También se incluyen sus notas para su libro inacabado, The Social Role of Doctors in Latin America.

An Introduction

Cultural Theory and Popular Culture

For American workers, the social contract is broken. This book gives a firsthand view of where the breaks occurred, and a prescription for rebuilding it to give workers their due. With AI making the decisions and CEOs and moguls making the money, sometimes it seems that most workers today might as well be drones. If not for a long string of missed opportunities over the last 50 years, it might have been different. In Roads Not Taken, Thomas Kochan reviews the turning points where the social contract fractured and broke, reducing workers’ voices as well as their compensation, benefits, and status. And in the lessons learned from these historical examples, he identifies the foundation for building a new labor relations system that ensures workers will share in the benefits from AI and puts America on course for an innovative and durable social contract at work. As a longtime advisor to government, labor, and management leaders, Kochan offers an eyewitness perspective on the mounting mistakes made in America’s labor relations system beginning, roughly, with Ronald Reagan’s firing of striking air traffic controllers in 1981. His book makes a strong case for new strategies on the part of labor unions and other worker advocacy groups, business, and government—strategies not wedded to the legacy labor law and practice that have failed American workers for so long. Recasting the social contract on this basis, Kochan insists, is key to rebuilding our democracy and its institutions after the damage wrought in recent years.
