"Man hält die Heimat für den relativ permanenten, die Wohnung für den auswechselbaren, übersiedelbaren Standort. Das Gegenteil ist richtig: Man kann die Heimat auswechseln oder keine haben, aber man muß immer, gleichgültig wo, wohnen. Der Mensch kann überall wohnen: unter den Pariser Brücken, in Zigeunerkarawanen, in den Hütten der Paulistaner Favelas und sogar in Auschwitz. Er ist wie die Ratte - kosmopolitisch... Wer aus der Heimat vertrieben wird (oder den Mut aufbringt, von dort zu fliehen), der leidet."

Bestselling historian Shlomo Sand argues that the global decline of the Left is linked to the waning of the idea of equality that has united citizens in the past and inspired them to engage in collective action. Sand retraces the evolution of this idea in a wide-ranging account that includes seventeenth-century England, the French Revolution, the birth of anarchism and Marxism, the decolonial, feminist, and civil rights revolts, and the left populism of our time.

When The Stone Reader—a landmark collection of 133 essays from the New York Times’ award-winning philosophy column—first published, in 2015, the world urgently needed insight and wisdom, and for many, the book served as a bulwark of reason against the rising tide of post-fact rhetoric. Now, as disinformation continues to run rampant and our rights are increasingly called into question, editors Peter Catapano and Simon Critchley contend that philosophy in the public sphere is more crucial than ever.
