Social Consciousness

知と社会構造の関係をシンプルに説いた『具体と抽象』『「無理」の構造』に続く第三弾「あの人は、人の〈批判〉ばかりしている」という〈批判〉、これが自己矛盾です。世の中に苛立ちと不毛な争いをもたらす大きな原因の一つがこの人間心理の負の側面であり、インターネットやSNSの発展によって表舞台にあふれるように出てきています。

『具体と抽象』から10年。満を持して、シリーズ第４弾刊行！「ある型」の思考回路は、「あるもの」に目を向ける。「ない型」の思考回路は、「ないもの」も視野に入れる。その両者の圧倒的ギャップが世の中を動かしている。そのメカニズムとは？私たちの「ものの見方」には、突き詰めれば大きく二つのタイプ、すなわち「ある型」思考と「ない型」思考がある。

Milyen világban élünk? Lehet, hogy az a „megbízható ember", aki a vezér parancsa szerint percenként képes véleményét változtatni? Valaminek vége (a nyugat alkonya?) és valami új kezdődik? De mi?

Mark Twain bu eserinde keskin zekâsını ve ironik üslubunu bir araya getirerek, insan doğasının sır perdesini aralıyor. Sıradan bir sohbet gibi başlayan metin, zamanla bir düşünce laboratuvarına dönüşüyor. Yargılar sorgulanıyor, alışılmış değerler altüst ediliyor ve okuyucuya kaçamayacağı bir yüzleşme imkânı sunuluyor: “Özgür irade gerçekten var mı? İnsanın özü bencil midir? Ahlak doğuştan mı gelir, yoksa bir koşullanmanın ürünü müdür?”

El somni és una obra complexa i singular, capaç de mirar-se de prop i amb un gran sentit de l'humor els aspectes més prosaics de la vida quotidiana però també d'elevar-se fins a les idees filosòfiques més transcendents. Metge, tancat a la presó per acusacions de malversació i corrupció, comença a somiar i se li presenten el personatge del rei mort recentment, Joan I, i dels personatges mitològics Orfeu i Tirèsies, amb els quals obre un diàleg en què discuteixen des de la immortalitat de l'ànima, d'algunes aficions excessives o dels defectes i virtuts d'homes i dones.

Abitiamo un nuovo regime che manipola la percezione, trasformando radicalmente il nostro rapporto con la realtà. Figure come Donald Trump ed Elon Musk sono i "sacerdoti" del nuovo paradigma. Ipnocrazia mostra i meccanismi che regolano la nostra epoca di «narrazioni ipnotiche», svelando come il potere non agisca mediante l'oppressione ma attraverso le storie che consumiamo, condividiamo e a cui crediamo. Dalla sua pubblicazione, Ipnocrazia è diventato un fenomeno internazionale, tradotto in francese e spagnolo, oggetto di dibattiti su numerosi quotidiani e riviste.

Die "totindoktrinierte Gesellschaft" ist die moderne Version von Platons Höhlengleichnis – nur dass die Schatten heute aus Bildschirmen, Lehrplänen und Schlagzeilen bestehen. Menschen verteidigen nicht mehr die Wahrheit, sondern ihre Fesseln. Wer es wagt, das parteipolitische Schauspiel oder die sogenannte Demokratie infrage zu stellen, trifft nicht auf Argumente, sondern auf Abwehr. Psychologisch nennt man das kognitive Dissonanz: Alles, was das gewohnte Weltbild bedroht, löst Angst aus, der Reflex ist nicht Denken, sondern Aggression.

Ez a könyv, illetve hangoskönyv arról szól, miféle speciális eszközöket fejlesztett még ki az ember ahhoz, hogy megismerje a világot és benne önmagát, és melyiknek mik a korlátai. Megismerhetjük például a mágia és a hit szerepét világunk megértésében, emellett hallhatunk még két olyan megismerési keretről is, amelyek a jövőben csatlakozhatnak ezekhez. A mesterséges intelligencia és a termékeny nemtudás mind más és más okból jönnek szóba.

"Acerca del alma" es una de las obras más influyentes de la historia del pensamiento occidental. En ella, Aristóteles analiza la naturaleza del alma humana, no como una entidad separada del cuerpo, sino como la forma de un cuerpo vivo, aquello que le da vida, propósito y capacidad.

" Philosopher, c’est apprendre à mourir " : dans cette maxime de Montaigne, " mourir " est souvent compris comme la fin de notre vie biologique. Pourtant sa portée est plus vaste : mourir est une affaire de chaque instant, une mise en abyme continuelle de soi et de sa pensée, de sa réflexion. Et réfléchir implique de rompre momentanément avec nos schémas habituels, nos routines quotidiennes, nos croyances et nos présupposés. Cet ouvrage montre comment la pratique philosophique nous permet de " devenir nous-mêmes", en nous écartant de l’immédiateté, en cessant – un temps – de vivre.
