The Future Loves You

Story
From ventilators to brain implants, medicine has been blurring what it means to die. In a lucid description of modern neuroscientific thinking, Zeleznikow-Johnston explains that death is not the loss of breath, but of personal identity – that the core of our identities is our minds, and that our minds are encoded in the structure of our brains. On this basis, he explores how recent discoveries now offer us all the chance of preserving our minds for future revival. Whether they discovered cures or fought for justice, we are grateful to those of our ancestors who helped craft a kinder world.

Story
Madness, sexuality, power, knowledge—are these facts of life or simply parts of speech? In a series of works of astonishing brilliance, historian Michel Foucault excavated the hidden assumptions that govern the way we live and the way we think. The Archaeology of Knowledge begins at the level of things aid and moves quickly to illuminate the connections between knowledge, language, and action in a style at once profound and personal. A summing up of Foucault's own methodological assumptions, this book is also a first step toward a genealogy of the way we live now.

Was bedeutet es, wenn die Eltern alt werden? Bestsellerautor Volker Kitz erzählt in seinem literarischen Essay die Geschichte seines Vaters und erkundet an ihr exemplarisch, wie sich familiäre Verantwortung verschiebt, wenn Eltern alt werden. Sein Buch berührt die Gefühle und Fragen einer ganzen Generation. "Bleibt bei mir", bittet der Vater seine zwei Söhne, als die Erinnerung ihn verlässt. Bis dahin war Erinnerung für Volker Kitz kein Thema. Sie funktionierte, der Vater funktionierte, die Familie funktionierte. Doch eines Tages verunglückt die Mutter, und das Schicksal nimmt seinen Lauf.

Story
Il nichilismo è tornato a essere una questione aperta nel nostro tempo. Le domande che in passato, con la sua critica degli idoli, esso aveva dichiarato ormai impossibili – come la domanda sul senso ultimo di sé e della realtà, sulla verità dell’io e della storia, sul nostro desiderio in rapporto all’infinito – si rivelano nuovamente possibili, ragionevoli, brucianti. Oggi il nichilismo non sembra più consistere, come nella sua forma classica, in una perdita di valori e di ideali, ma piuttosto nell’emergere di un bisogno irriducibile: più nudo, forse, ma molto più impegnativo.

¿Cómo morir? La pregunta suena de mal agüero en nuestra frenética actualidad. Vivimos como si no fuéramos a morir. Y, sin embargo, hemos de afrontar el tema cuanto antes mejor, gracias a la ayuda de la filosofía. Frente al miedo a la muerte, el estoicismo nos propone una liberación: no miremos para otro lado. Séneca nos dice que para no temer a la muerte es necesario tenerla presente, que «se niega a vivir quien se niega a morir».

Un llamamiento a involucrarnos cívicamente para tomar las riendas de nuestro futuro.

Los actores económicos, ocupados únicamente en la maximización del beneficio propio, no tienen ninguna motivación racional para interrogarse por el bien común. Asimismo, los poderes públicos se desentienden de las consecuencias finales de sus acciones.
