Morris Berman hace la analogía con el Imperio Romano del "pan y circo", sólo que en el caso de Estados Unidos, la estulticia se encarna en la glorificación de los valores corporativos, en el consumismo y entretenimiento masivos, en pocas palabras, en todo lo que proyecta la llamada cultura "McWorld".

"A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere," wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson in Love and Friendship, a collection of essays on relationships. "Before him, I may think aloud. I do then with my friends as I do with my books. I would have them where I can find them, but I seldom use them."

Gelesen von Christoph Hackenberg Menschen fühlen sich oft wohl im Kerker ihrer Selbstverständlichkeiten, fühlen sich bedroht, wenn der Blick durch ein Fenster möglich wird, um Anderes zu erspähen, oder wenn sie angeregt werden, sich eine Tür zu suchen, um draußen neues Land zu entdecken. Das trifft nicht nur für Einzelne zu, sondern auch für soziale Systeme wie Unternehmen, Staaten oder Kirchen.

You don’t live around plastic. You live inside it. From childhood toys to water bottles, from Tupperware to your bloodstream — plastic didn’t just change the world. It became it. Foreverland is the story of the synthetic substance that reprogrammed reality. What started as a miracle material became a cultural operating system — reshaping taste, convenience, economics, nostalgia, and even human biology. Funny, haunting, and eye-opening, this book will make you see the modern world for what it really is: Plastic. And it’s not going away.

This paper proposes a parallel system of intelligent, non-monetary resource distribution modeled on biological metabolism, in which needs are met dynamically through feedback-driven regulation rather than symbolic exchange. Inspired by the way organisms distribute nutrients and resources without currency—using signaling, prioritization, and homeostasis—we outline a framework in which artificial intelligence performs a similar coordinating function at the societal level. Such a system would gradually render traditional money obsolete, not through ideological abolition, but through redundancy.

Credevamo di essere onnipotenti e sbagliavamo. Credevamo di aver capito tutto e non avevamo capito niente. Gli anni della pandemia hanno costituito un grande reset, per tante certezze e tante convinzioni, e il risultato è un trauma collettivo di cui oggi viviamo le conseguenze: una situazione di gravissimo contrasto sociale, patologie psicologiche diffuse in forme acute soprattutto tra i giovani, un'incertezza generale sul futuro. Dobbiamo ritrovare un filo di Arianna in ciò che abbiamo vissuto e usarlo per ricucire la trama della nostra convivenza, se vogliamo sopravvivere come specie.

Als die öffentlichen Zustände sich so verschlimmerten, dass keine Aussicht auf Herstellung der Ordnung mehr vorhanden war, soll Laotse sich zurückgezogen haben. Als er an den Grenzpass Han Gu gekommen sei, habe ihm der Grenzbeamte Yin Hi gebeten, ihm etwas Schriftliches zu hinterlassen. Darauf habe er den Toateking, bestehend aus mehr als 5000 chinesischen Zeichen, niedergeschrieben und ihm übergeben. Dann sei er nach Westen gegangen, kein Mensch weiß wohin. ... Satirischer oder düsterer Grundton unüberhörbar.

An Essay for Ezra is a critique of terror that begins but by no means ends with the presidency of Donald J. Trump.

« Il est bien tard pour passer à l’action. Mais supposons qu’il nous reste dix années pour enfin affronter le monde tel qu’il est devenu, à savoir de moins en moins favorable à nos existences, et à celles des autres êtres vivants. Dix ans pour un virage politique très serré. Dix ans pour nous débarrasser de nos lubies productivistes et consuméristes. Dix ans pour apprendre à régénérer une nature en voie de destruction accélérée.»

Wenn die wichtigsten politischen und philosophischen Errungenschaften der Aufklärung - Demokratie, Menschenrechte, evidenzbasiertes Denken - überleben sollen, müssen wir eine Lebensweise und ein Verständnis der Welt entwickeln, die dem menschlichen Wohlergehen verpflichtet sind und von planetarischer Gerechtigkeit getragen werden.
