Any group of people expected to work synergistically needs a system that structures their interactions. That system is “governance.” The Pragmatist’s Guide to Governance takes a first principles approach to exploring the ways governance structures affect the humans living under them (and vice versa), with a special focus on how human psychology interacts with the structures that facilitate our interaction with other people.

The left is waging an all-out battle on the American family, particularly the youngest members. If they can make our children miserable, lead them to question every building block of society, and rebuild their entire concept of reality, then the left and their woke indoctrinators will consider that a victory. But we can't let them win. As concerned parents and American citizens, we have to understand what's truly going on before we can do something about it. Stolen Youth provides an urgent deep dive into issues surrounding the current woke indoctrination happening.

STUDIUM ZŁA W JEGO NAJCZYSTSZEJ POSTACI. Historia człowieka, który przedłożył szalone idee nad życie całych narodów. Opowieść o drodze do bezgranicznej władzy. Drodze usłanej trupami, krwawymi pieniędzmi oraz psychopatycznym cynizmem. Drodze tajnego agenta, zdrajcy i bezwzględnego ideologa opętanego manią wielkości. TWARZE SIĘ ZMIENIAJĄ, DYKTATOR ZOSTAJE TEN SAM... Tym razem prawda jest bardziej przerażająca od najmakabryczniejszej fikcji.

The political ideas that fully came together under the name “liberal” in the early 19th century—the ideas we often now refer to as “classical liberalism”—emerged out of major debates and developments from the late 1600s to the late 1700s. These were part of the broad European intellectual movement of that era that came to be known as “the Enlightenment".

Moderate Conservatism: Reclaiming the Center by John Kekes is a response to attacks on the United States' 300-year-old constitutional democracy by extremists on the left and the right. It makes a reasoned case for moderation and the defense of a political system that has endured because it has balanced the often-conflicting claims of justice, liberty, equality, prosperity, and security. That balance is now threatened by extremists who ignore all else but their grievances.

It's dangerous to question mankind when nature is disregarded. This is an honest evaluation for an honest world. People claim that they care about nature then proceed to claim that we cannot live without government. They then claim that we can't live with anarchy.

Setembre de 1962. Una jove mestra de vocació dubtosa i escassa capacitat de comunicació oral arriba a la seva primera plaça en una escola del Pirineu ribagorçà. Ella volia un poble, una feina i una casa des d'on veure caure la neu. Darrere deixa una infantesa marcada per l'enigmàtica activitat del pare i per l'original educació rebuda d'una mare dividida entre l'impuls irresistible d'apartar la filla de les consignes del Règim i la por d'aïllar-la excessivament de la normalitat imperant.

The Oath Keepers first made a name for themselves with the infamous Bundy Ranch standoff in 2014. They have continued through to the US Capitol insurrection in early 2021.

In the eyes of many, the US exerts the strongest destabilizing influence on world events, and thus presents the greatest threat to world peace. World power #1 hasn’t acquired this top position by chance. Since 1945, no other nation has bombed as many other countries or toppled as many governments as the US. It maintains the most military bases, exports the most weapons, and has the highest defense budget in the world. USA: The Ruthless Empire explains the background factors, motives, and resources of this world power.

Geld gab es in ihrer Familie immer zu wenig. Als Kind fragte sie sich deshalb, wie manche achtlos hunderte Euro für Taschen, Schuhe, Steaks ausgeben können, während es gleichzeitig so viele Menschen gibt, für die 100 Euro ein kleines Vermögen sind.

Immer noch rechnet sie die Beträge in Hartz-IV-Regelsätze um. Ganz offen erzählt Anna Mayr von ihrer eigenen Bürgerlichwerdung.

At the height of the John Birch Society’s activity in the 1960s, critics dismissed its members as a paranoid fringe. After all, “Birchers” believed that a vast communist conspiracy existed in America and posed an existential threat to Christianity, capitalism, and freedom. But as historian Matthew Dallek reveals, the Birch Society’s extremism remade American conservatism. Most Birchers were white professionals who were radicalized as growing calls for racial and gender equality appeared to upend American life.

"Auf Grund einer nicht unbeträchtlichen Erfahrung stelle ich hier fest: der Kapitalist kennt die Rechte und Ansprüche des Arbeiters nicht, und der Arbeiter kennt die Nöte und Gefahren der Kapitalisten nicht. Darin liegt die wahre Ursache aller zwischen beiden aufkommenden Reibungen." Andrew Carnegie (1835 – 1919), der seinerzeit einer der drei reichsten Amerikaner war, schrieb einen der ersten Ratgeber für wirtschaftlichen Erfolg: "The Empire of Business".
