À la source des conflits humains se trouve notre méprise fondamentale de ce que nous sommes. L’illusion que nous sommes des êtres isolés, sans lien avec le reste de l’univers, nous a conduits à considérer le monde « extérieur » avec animosité et a alimenté notre mauvaise utilisation de la technologie et notre soumission violente et hostile du monde naturel. Pour nous aider à comprendre que le moi s’avère en fait la source et le fondement de l'univers.

What would you pay to have a wife who doesn't argue or nag? What would you pay for a husband who's actually in shape? What would you pay to have a clean garage? And what would you pay to be able to get up every morning when you wanted to? The problem is you can't pay for these things as they cannot be bought in stores. But they are definitely attainable in life. The only question is whether you are going to give up your current pursuit of traditional economic standards of living to attain them instead.

Story
Wherever there’s a rule, there is someone with the power to apply or ignore it—or add to it, in the interest of justice. From enforcing chores to issuing life sentences, decision-makers deliver flawed and sometimes arbitrary outcomes. But is their use of discretion good or bad overall? As a society, should we seek to minimize or maximize discretion, with all its potential for bias and other kinds of human error? Reframing our understanding of justice and ethics, philosopher Barry Lam argues that while use of discretion can never be perfect, removing it has even more problematic effects.

Story
When we think about whether we are good people leading a good life, we usually think about actions. Bad people do bad things that hurt others. Good people do good things that help others, and they avoid doing bad things. Simple. But while our actions certainly have consequences, today our inactions have far greater and far graver consequences. Bad actions can result in the suffering of a few or several dozen others; inaction can result in the extreme misery of thousands.

The Stoic philosopher Musonius Rufus was one of the most influential teachers of his era, imperial Rome, and his message still resonates with startling clarity today. Alongside Stoics like Seneca, Epictetus, and Marcus Aurelius, he emphasized ethics in action, displayed in all aspects of life. Merely learning philosophical doctrine and listening to lectures, they believed, will not do one any good unless one manages to interiorize the teachings and apply them to daily life.

Pleasure feels amazing! Anxiety, however, does not. The Ancient Greek Philosopher Epicurus rolled these two strikingly intuitive claims into a simple formula for happiness and well-being—pursue pleasure without causing yourself anxiety. But wait, is that even possible? Can humans achieve lasting pleasure without suffering anxiety about failure and loss? Epicurus thinks we can, at least once we learn to pursue pleasure thoughtfully.

Do any of us really care about truth when it comes to politics? Should we? In a world of big lies, denialism, and conspiracy theories, democracies are experiencing two interlocked crises: a loss of confidence in democracy itself and the growing sense among many that politics is only about power—not truth. In this book, Michael Patrick Lynch argues that truth not only can—but must—matter in politics. He shows why truth is an essential democratic value—a value we need to sustain our democratic way of life—and how it can be strengthened.

Story
"The communists do not preach morality at all"; this line from The Communist Manifesto might seem to settle the question of whether Marxism has anything to offer moral philosophy. Yet, Marx issued both trenchant critiques of "bourgeois" morality and thundering condemnations of capitalism's "vampire-like" destructiveness. He decried commodity-exchange for corroding our ability to value one another for who we are, not how much our lives could be traded away for.

Weiterhin sucht er im historischen Bewußtsein selbst einen Ausgleich zwischen den verschiedenen Haltungen einer ›monumentalischen‹, ›antiquarischen‹ und ›kritischen‹ Art der Historie.

"Warum überhaupt Wahrheit ?"– wenn, wie Nietzsche in diesem Stück aus den ›Nachgelassenen Schriften‹ betont, der Intellekt "als ein Mittel zur Erhaltung des Individuums, (...) seine Hauptkräfte in der Verstellung [entfaltet]". Auch die Sprache als vermeintliche Erfassung der Dinge be- schreibt Nietzsche als vitale Illussion und ein "bewegliches Heer von Metaphern". Nebenher bereitet er hiermit die bahnbrechende Sprachkritik Wittgensteins vor. Aber gleichwohl beschreibt Nietzsche auch einen "Trieb zur Wahrheit".
