Por que os seres humanos tendem a estabelecer relações de domínio e servidão? Além dos fatores sociais, políticos e históricos em jogo, quais são as bases psíquicas de tal tendência? Este audiolivro é um ensaio em torno de tais questões, tomando como eixo central o modo como se institui psiquicamente a autoridade e se forma o Eu autoritário. Sua referência principal é a psicanálise, mas não sem diálogos com a antropologia, filosofia, sociologia, linguística e literatura. Por meio desses diálogos, elabora dois conceitos-chave.

Viviamo in una realtà piena di contraddizioni. Oltre alla "fine della storia" ci è toccata anche la "fine della geografia": il pianeta è diventato piatto e stereotipato. Eppure nel simulacro dell'esotico inseguiamo ancora la lontananza e i viaggi continuano a prometterci l'avventura. La globalizzazione ha appiattito differenze etniche e culturali, ma ogni giorno assistiamo al riemergere di nuove spinte nazionalistiche e tribali. Siamo succubi dei miti dell'istantaneità e dell'iperconnessione, i social e i blog hanno inaugurato una nuova stagione di egualitarismo a oltranza.

Like a lot of Americans, Steve Almond spent the weeks after the 2016 election lying awake, in a state of dread and bewilderment. The problem wasn’t just the election, but the fact that nobody could explain, in any sort of coherent way, why America had elected a cruel, corrupt, and incompetent man to the Presidency. Bad Stories: What the Hell Just Happened to Our Country is Almond’s effort to make sense of our historical moment, to connect certain dots that go unconnected amid the deluge of hot takes and think pieces.

Are today's young adults gender rebels or returning to tradition? In Where the Millennials Will Take Us, Barbara J. Risman reveals the diverse strategies youth use to negotiate the ongoing gender revolution. Using her theory of gender as a social structure, Risman analyzes life history interviews with a diverse set of millennials to probe how they understand gender and how they might change it. Some are true believers that men and women are different and should be so. Others are innovators, defying stereotypes, and rejecting sexist ideologies and organizational practices.

From the schoolyard to the workplace, from political rallies to social media feeds, we are constantly influenced by the groups around us. Sometimes that influence is benign, even beneficial—it helps communities function, ensures cooperation, and keeps social life flowing smoothly. At other times, it can lead to silence in the face of injustice, blind obedience to authority, or the chilling grip of groupthink. Why We Conform explores this paradox in depth, revealing why the desire to fit in runs so deep, how it shapes our daily lives, and what happens when it goes too far.
