In Ordinata Concordia
2023 || Hardcover || Herman Jozef Kaiser || Open Press Tilburg University
Deze studie gaat over het subsidiariteitsbeginsel. Het is een onderdeel van het katholiek sociaal denken. Subsidiariteit gaat over een manier van ordenen. Over de relatie tussen de persoon en zijn omgeving. Cruciaal is de vraag naar de voorwaarden waaronder instituties invloed mogen uitoefenen op de natuurlijke sociale vrijheden en verantwoordelijkheden van de menselijke persoon en zijn sociale verbanden. De probleemstelling van dit proefschrift spitst zich toe op de vraag hoe in een tijd van...

Ending the Anthropocene
Essays on Activism in the Age of Collapse
Paperback || Lieven de Cauter || nai010 uitgevers publishers
In this book, activist philosopher and philosophical activist Lieven de Cauter investigates the idea that if we want to avoid collapse, we have to end the Anthropocene – the geological era of the gigantic, devastating impact of our species on planet Earth.

Offering case studies on urban activism alongside more general reflections on civic action and social movements, D...

Money is A Mind Thing
on symbols of value
Paperback || Reinold Widemann || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
Money was a mind thing long before certain goods were used as money and coins started circulating. As it happens money isn't a thing, but an idea, an idea of debt. What we generally take for money, are merely symbols of this idea of money.
In this book a reader accompanies the author on a tour along various ideas on value man had from the beginning of time. The result is a colourful description of the historical development of ideas on money and values from ancient history to our present time.
Reinold Widemann has published some books on monetary matters and banking, international economics and factors influencing interest rates. He also wrote short stories and essays, of which several have been published in Dutch literary magazines. He was a lecturer in economics i.a. at the HES Amsterdam School of Businesss...

A new philosophy of man & humanism
Basic principles
2023 || Paperback || Hans L.M. Dassen || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
In the 21st century we need a new philosophy as opposed to the old philosophy: a philosophy of man or philosophical anthropology. The importance of a new philosophy of man is that it addresses people all over the world, thus helping us to overcome our differences. And if we look a bit further into the world of the 21st century, we see that the most pressing project will be the search for meaning in the lives of human beings in a globalised world. Following the complete existential deconstruct...
