Real Life and Real Economics
Collected Papers of the International interdisciplinary conference ‘‘Real Life and the Real Economics’’ There are many insoluble paradoxes in the advanced and technologically driven 21st century. One of these cornerstone mysteries is the factual history of business, economics, and even day-to-day technologies. If it is considered that ''money rules the world,'' then why, is it the case, there is no single reasonable idea, how and where money came from? What was the progression of metamorphosis and transformations that allowed impersonal pieces of paper and electronic signals to become today the central exchange equivalent? There is no history of business, history of economy or histor...
International interdisciplinary conference “Sketch a subculture”
Collected Papers of the International interdisciplinary conference “Sketch a subculture” Subcultures can be so tightly integrated into the contemporary person's daily life that they have become almost indispensable and ubiquitous. Family, job, agreements, responsibilities and negotiations are one thing, but, let us say, skydiving, or riding a bike in the company of motorcycle enthusiasts is a different thing—no less an important part of one's life. The current state of affairs is that almost everyone on this planet belongs to some subculture in one way or another. This another, natural part of one's lifestyle for pleasure is not always considered a "subculture," but the heart of the ma...
Maestro. Jean Baudrillard. The Last Prophet of Europe
Jean Baudrillard is characterized as the “Last Prophet of Europe”: not just because he was a prominent thinker, French philosopher and author of more than 50 works and essays that examine modern consumer society in depth. Events and phenomena described by Baudrillard in his works 20-30 years ago are taking place today. By means of his writings he described his view of the world and explained why people and society are the way they are. He “encrypted” in his works a system that allows for making accurate prognosis. There was no book until this that could have demonstrated the integral system of Baudrillard’s philosophy. Baudrillard did not share it with anybody and did not describe ...
Religion, Politics, and Globalization
While social scientists, beginning with Weber, envisioned a secularized world, religion today is forthrightly becoming a defining feature of life all around the globe. The complex connections between religion and politics, and the ways in which globalization shapes these processes, are central themes explored in this volume by leading scholars in the field of religion. Does the holism of numerous past and present day cosmologies mean that religions with their holistic orientations are integral to human existence? What happens when political ideologies and projects are framed as transcendental truths and justified by Divine authority? How are individual and collective identities shaped by religious rhetoric, and what are the consequences? Can mass murder, deemed terrorism, be understood as a form of ritual sacrifice, and if so, what are the implications for our sensibilities and practices as scholars and citizens? Using empirical material, from historical analyses of established religions to the everyday strife of marginalized groups such as migrants and dissident movements, this volume deepens the understanding of processes that shape the contemporary world.

La politique selon Machiavel
Cette analyse des oeuvres de Machiavel montre que le philosophe florentin livre un récit cohérent de la notion politique qui s'applique aussi bien à notre époque qu'à la sienne. Selon Machiavel, les individus s'organisent politiquement pour protéger leur vie, leur famille et leurs biens des agresseurs violents. Mais, une fois ces sociétés organisées formées, celles-ci se divisent en deux sortes d'humeurs opposées : le désir du peuple de ne pas être commandé ou opprimé ; et le désir des ambitieux et des avares de dominer et d'opprimer. Machiavel adresse donc toutes ses oeuvres aux dirigeants, réels ou potentiels, car il voit qu'une foule sans direction peut être destructrice. Pour conserver leur position de gouvernants, il exhorte les dirigeants à utiliser le désir de protection du peuple.
