In Molecular Red, McKenzie Wark creates philosophical tools for the Anthropocene, our new planetary epoch, in which human and natural forces are so entwined that the future of one determines that of the other. Wark explores the implications of Anthropocene through the story of two empires, the Soviet and then the American. The fall of the former prefigures that of the latter.

A Truly Golden Handbook: The Scholarly Quest for Utopia
ISBN: 9789462700796 / Angielski / Twarda / 576 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What would the ideal society of the future look like? In 1516, the eminent English humanist Thomas More tried his hand at imagining a perfect society on a distant island. His Utopia was published in the Flemish town of Leuven, home of a university that was established almost a century earlier. Five hundred years later, scholars of this university revisit More's best-known work and reflect on the ideal society of the future, using the scientific insights of today, including perspectives that More could never have imagined. From the creation of spare organs, artificial intelligence,... What would the ideal society of the future look like?

ISBN: 9781542501101 / Hiszpański / Miękka / 86 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. La Utopia del comunismo perfecto propuesta por Tomas Campanella es una lectura facil y comprensible para todo lector, sea interesado en los argumentos filosoficos, como en los politicos. Pero, propio por ser de facil lectura el texto no debe enganar: la propuesta de Campanella es utopica, por lo tanto irrealizable. Quien piensa que el comunismo perfecto anhele un retorno a la pureza comunitaria del origen de la humanidad, debe saber distinguir: una cosa es discutir hoy filosoficamente sobre el ideal comunitario, otra cosa es pretender convencer al proximo, politicamente, sobre la bondad de la...

Freedom?
ISBN: 9781782052395 / Angielski / Miękka / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As a figure of thought, the concept of freedom tends to shuttle between abstraction and ideal - the first exemplified by Isaiah Berlin's contrast between negative and positive liberty, and the second by Philip Pettit's neo-republican conception of freedom as non-domination. Located within the realm of lived experience however, freedom is invariably forged from context-specific constraints, hence the title of the proposed pamphlet: degrees of freedom. The point of departure is to approach freedom as a practice which is 'conditioned' by enclosures of power/knowledge which are also enclosures of...
