  • The Servile Mind

    How Democracy Erodes the Moral Life

    par Kenneth Minogue ...
    One of the grim comedies of the twentieth century was that miserable victims of communist regimes would climb walls, swim rivers, dodge bullets, and find other desperate ways to achieve liberty in the West at the same time that progressive intellectuals would sentimentally proclaim that these very regimes were the wave of the future. A similar tragicomedy is playing out in our century: as the ... En savoir plus

  • State of Crisis

    par Zygmunt Bauman, Carlo Bordoni ...
    Today we hear much talk of crisis and comparisons are often made with the Great Depression of the 1930s, but there is a crucial difference that sets our current malaise apart from the 1930s: today we no longer trust in the capacity of the state to resolve the crisis and to chart a new way forward. In our increasingly globalized world, states have been stripped of much of their power to shape the ... En savoir plus

  • Culture in a Liquid Modern World

    par Zygmunt Bauman ...

    Rescuing the Classics in an Impoverished Age

    par Victor Davis Hanson, John Heath, Bruce S. Thornton ...

  • The Tyranny of Liberalism

    Understanding and Overcoming Administered Freedom, Inquisitorial Tolerance, and Equality by Command

    par James Kalb ...
    When it comes to liberalism, the usual story in postwar America is one of decline, accompanied by the subplot of conservatism's ascendance. But take a longer view—look beyond and below politics—and it is the unchallenged triumph of liberalism and its philosophical assumptions that ought to command our attention.The triumph of liberalism means the tyranny of liberalism, explains James Kalb in this ...
