For more than a century, governments facing financial crisis have resorted to the economic policies of austerity—cuts to wages, fiscal spending, and public benefits—as a path to solvency. Today, an important question remains: What if solvency was never the goal? In The Capital Order, political economist Clara E. Mattei explores the intellectual origins of austerity to uncover its originating motives: the protection of capital—and indeed capitalism—in times of social upheaval from below.

Too often books on breathing and breathwork coaches do not teach the actual mechanics of breathing. Instead, they guide one-off sessions, teach protocols, or direct you to an app. The consequence of just following a protocol without understanding breathing mechanics leaves the student disempowered and dependent on the teacher. Instead, in Breathe How You Want to Feel, learning functional breathing becomes the basis upon which you gain control of your well-being—it’s the secret tool behind resiliency.

Il podcast Sigonella 85 ripercorre le 51 ore drammatiche del dirottamento dell’Achille Lauro, “la nave più bella del mondo“, per poi concentrarsi su ciò che è avvenuto a Sigonella: il primo no detto da un Governo Italiano agli Americani, un rifiuto che ha scatenato la più profonda crisi Italia-USA mai verificatasi dal Dopoguerra, e che ha messo in discussione gli equilibri di tutto il mondo. Un contrasto diplomatico che ha rischiato di trasformarsi in uno scontro militare. Eppure, a sentire chi, quella sera, era presenta a Sigonella, le cose non sarebbero andate così come ci sono sempre state raccontate.

Mauro Corona e Matteo Righetto danno voce a ciò che per loro la montagna rappresenta, attingendo a un ricchissimo tesoro di esperienze personali, qui condensate in brevi racconti, epigrammi fulminanti, descrizioni di paesaggi naturali di bellezza inesprimibile.

This is the first book to trace the fascinating parallel history of law and science from antiquity to modern times, showing how the two disciplines have always influenced each other - until recently. In the past few years, the scientific paradigm has shifted dramatically, from seeing the natural world as a kind of cosmic machine to understanding it as a network of fluidly interacting communities. But law is stuck in a mechanistic, 17th-century view that the world is made up of discrete individual parts.

Nato da un'amicizia totale quanto discreta, sviluppatasi nel corso di un ventennio, tra Leonardo Sciascia e Matteo Collura, questo audiolibro è più di una biografia, è quasi un romanzo e insieme una sorta di guida alla lettura e alla comprensione delle opere di Sciascia, nel contesto della sua vita e della società della quale ha denunciato barbarie e ingiustizie. Il racconto muove dalla Sicilia degli anni venti del secolo scorso e arriva alla fine dei "decisivi" anni ottanta.

They’re known as the bebés robados, or “stolen babies”–children stolen at birth from their mothers and sold to wealthy families around Spain. For decades, European reporters and activists have tried to penetrate the secretive networks responsible for the crimes, typically with little success. Until now.

Hannah Arendt, penseur de la modernité, irrigue par son œuvre tant la philosophie que la politique. La culture, aujourd'hui diffusée, distribuée et démocratisée, n'a pourtant jamais été en plus grand péril. Par une analyse des concepts de tradition, d'autorité, d'éducation et de liberté, Hannah Arendt dresse un portrait sans concessions de notre monde contemporain où la crise de la culture pose la question de la construction de notre devenir.

"A cosa pensa una donna quando, assordata dalle voci di tutti, capisce all’improvviso di aver soffocato la propria?" In pochi come Matteo Bussola sanno raccontare, con tanta delicatezza e profondità, le contraddizioni dei rapporti umani. In pochi sanno cogliere con tale pudore il nostro desiderio e la nostra paura di essere felici. Una donna sola che in tarda età scopre l’amore. Una figlia che lotta per riuscire a perdonare sua madre. Una ragazza che invece non vuole figli, perché non sopporterebbe il loro dolore. Una vedova che scrive al marito.
