Georg Simmel (1858 - 1918), war Philosoph und Soziologe. Sein Essay über die "Großstädte und das Geistesleben" war bahnbrechend - weil es eingänglich schildert, wie die Großstadt auf das Individuum wirkt. Ein faszinierendes, zeitloses Werk.

Georg Simmel (1858–1918), Philosoph und Soziologe, war einer der bedeutendsten Kulturtheoretiker seiner Zeit. Sein Essay Die Großstädte und das Geistesleben gilt als bahnbrechend – denn er beschreibt eindrücklich, wie das urbane Leben auf das Individuum wirkt: Reizüberflutung, soziale Distanz, die Entwicklung von Individualität und intellektueller Abstraktion. Ein faszinierendes, zeitloses Werk der Soziologie, das bis heute aktuelle Fragen über das Leben in der Moderne stellt – psychologisch präzise, klar argumentiert und überraschend zugänglich.

In "Zur Psychologie des Geldes" untersucht Georg Simmel die vielschichtige Rolle des Geldes im sozialen und individuellen Leben. Das Werk gehört zu den einflussreichsten Schriften der frühen Soziologie und entfaltet auf brillante Weise, wie Geld soziale Beziehungen, Werte und Identität prägt. Mit philosophischer Tiefe und soziologischer Schärfe analysiert Simmel, wie Geld als abstraktes Tauschmittel Denk- und Handlungsmuster formt, Freiheit und Abhängigkeit zugleich schafft und den modernen Menschen in seiner Existenz beeinflusst.

Capitalism has blessed the world with wealth and technological miracles. It has also cursed it with urban slums, powerless workers, and the vicious boom-and-bust economy. If only there were some way to fix the problems of capitalism and keep all its benefits. In 1897, Henry George published his solution to this puzzle, Progress and Poverty. He suggested that, unlike all other taxes, a tax on land doesn't discourage entrepreneurship. A single tax on land can raise the revenues we need to help the poor without destroying the incentive to create wealth.

Il n'est pas anodin que les grandes figures sociologiques du XXe siècle, Durkheim, Mauss, Lévi-Strauss ou Bourdieu, aient été formées initialement à la philosophie. D'abord timidement, puis farouchement, la sociologie, ou encore l'anthropologie et l'ethnographie, prennent au cours du siècle leur indépendance face à la paternité philosophique pour créer la nouvelle dénomination des sciences sociales.

Progress and Poverty by Henry George explores the paradox of increasing inequality in periods of economic growth. George proposes that land speculation is the root cause of wealth disparities, advocating for a single tax on land value to promote fairness and reduce poverty. This influential work is critical for understanding economic and social theories regarding land reform and taxation.

A collection of Jackson's letters from prison, Soledad Brother is an outspoken condemnation of the racism of white America and a powerful appraisal of the prison system that failed to break his spirit but eventually took his life. Jackson's letters make palpable the intense feelings of anger and rebellion that filled Black men in America's prisons in the 1960s. But even removed from the social and political firestorms of the 1960s, Jackson's story still resonates for its portrait of a man taking a stand even while locked down.

Am 25. Mai 2020 ging ein Video um die Welt, das den Mord an George Floyd zufällig festhielt: Ein Polizist kniet neun Minuten und 29 Sekunden auf Floyds Hals und lässt auch nicht davon ab, als Floyd mehrmals ruft: "I can’t breathe" – "Ich kann nicht atmen!" Der Mord an George Floyd hat die Welt erschüttert und globale Black-Lives-Matter-Proteste gegen Rassismus und Polizeigewalt ausgelöst. In der ersten Biographie Floyds rekonstruieren die preisgekrönten Reporter Robert Samuels und Toluse Olorunnipa von der Washington Post die großen Zusammenhänge.

By 2016, it was impossible to ignore an international resurgence of xenophobia. What had happened? Looking for clues, psychiatrist and historian George Makari started out in search of the idea’s origins. To his astonishment, he discovered an unfolding series of never-told stories. While a fear and hatred of strangers may be ancient, he found that the notion of a dangerous bias called “xenophobia” arose not so long ago.

When she was in her mid-thirties, Marian Evans transformed herself into George Eliot - an author celebrated for her genius as soon as she published her debut novel. During those years she also found her life partner, George Lewes - writer, philosopher and married father of three. After 'eloping' to Berlin in 1854 they lived together for twenty-four years: Eliot asked people to call her 'Mrs Lewes' and dedicated each novel to her 'Husband'. Though they could not legally marry, she felt herself initiated into the 'great experience' of marriage.

Since 1973, Time Magazine's Chauvinist Pig of the Year George Gilder has been clear about the stakes for the family. Without fathers, our civilization sinks back into the Stone Age. Sixty years later, the need of the hour remains: men that take responsibility for themselves, men that raise their own children, and men with insatiable economic libido. A nation of faithful men can never be moved.

Critical theory emerged in the 1920s from the work of the Frankfurt School, the circle of German-Jewish academics who sought to diagnose—and, if at all possible, cure—the ills of society, particularly fascism and capitalism. In this book, Stephen Eric Bronner provides sketches of leading representatives of the critical tradition (such as George Lukács and Ernst Bloch, Theodor Adorno and Walter Benjamin, Herbert Marcuse and Jurgen Habermas) as well as many of its seminal texts and empirical investigations.

"Der er få forfattere, som genoptrykkes i store oplag 75 år efter deres død, men den engelske forfatter George Orwell er en af disse få. Det skyldes, at han så tendenser i tiden, der ikke lader til at ville forsvinde. Tværtimod. Han afslørede løgn, spin, manipulation, magtfordrejning...

Identity Economics bridges a critical gap in the social sciences. It brings identity and norms to economics. People’s notions of what is proper, and what is forbidden, and for whom, are fundamental to how hard they work, and how they learn, spend, and save. Thus people’s identity—their conception of who they are, and of who they choose to be—may be the most important factor affecting their economic lives.
