Filosofen, författaren och kompositören Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778) förebådade romantiken och skrev några av de mest centrala texterna för den franska revolutionen. Rousseau var en komplicerad person som skrev inkännande om barnuppfostran, men lämnade alla sina fem barn att dö på barnhem.Rousseau kopierade hellre noter än tog emot stipendier från kungar - för att behålla sitt oberoende. Hans skrifter om religion, ojämlikhet och barnuppfostran skulle tvinga honom i landsflykt. Vi kan alla lära oss något utifrån hans vantrivsel i det moderna samhället.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med litteraturvetaren och essäisten Tatjana Brandt om Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Hon är aktuell med boken Drömmaren Rousseau – Om frihet, fantasi och den omöjliga konsten att leva i ett samhälle.Jean-Jacques Rousseau kom från enkla förhållanden och skrev några av den västerländska filosofins mest centrala texter. Hans tankar om utveckling, ojämlikhet och barnuppfostran påverkar oss än idag. Han blev en inspirationskälla för både romantiken och upplysningen, men hans egen livsstil och relation till dessa idéer var fyllda av konflikter.Rousseau föddes den 28 juni 1712 i Genève, då en självständig republik. Hans mor avled kort efter födseln, och hans far, en urmakare, lämnade honom när han var tio år. Efter en lärlingstid hos en gravör rymde han vid sexton års ålder och inledde ett kringflackande liv. Han kom snart under beskydd av baronessan Françoise-Louise de Warens, som både blev hans älskarinna och intellektuella mentor.Hans intellektuella genombrott kom i Paris där han umgicks med upplysningens ledande gestalter, som Denis Diderot. År 1749 deltog han i en uppsatstävling i Dijon och vann med essän Discours sur les sciences et les arts (1750), där han argumenterade för att civilisationens framsteg hade korrumperat människans naturliga godhet. Det var här han formulerade den grundläggande motsättningen i sitt tänkande: konflikten mellan naturen och samhället.Rousseaus mest kända skönlitterära verk är Julie, eller Den nya Héloïse (1761), en brevroman som blev en sensation i hela Europa. Romanen, som blandar passionerad kärlek med moralisk och filosofisk reflektion, handlar om kampen mellan hjärta och plikt. Här utvecklar han sin idé om en utopisk harmoni mellan individ och samhälle, men romanen är också en kritisk betraktelse över kärlekens destruktiva kraft.I den pedagogiska romanen Émile, eller om uppfostran (1762) skisserade Rousseau en radikalt ny syn på barnuppfostran. Han argumenterade för att barn borde få utvecklas naturligt, utan tvång och indoktrinering – en idé som revolutionerade pedagogiken och inspirerade moderna utbildningsmetoder.I Om samhällsfördraget (1762) utvecklade Rousseau sina tankar om frihet och politisk rättvisa. Han förespråkade en form av direktdemokrati där folket, genom den "allmänna viljan", kollektivt styrde samhället. Hans idéer kom att påverka den franska revolutionen och har sedan dess varit centrala inom demokratisk teori.Bildtext: Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778), filosofen som inspirerade allt från romantikens poesi till upplysningens samhällskritik, men som i sitt eget liv ofta bröt mot sina ideal.

Quedó deslumbrado por la prenda y la llevaba con alegría. No obstante, pronto se percató de que el resto de sus pertenencias parecían de mal gusto en comparación con la exquisita bata roja. Determinado a igualar el nivel de elegancia, decidió mejorar sus otras posesiones. Cambió su antiguo sillón de paja por uno tapizado en cuero marroquí, reemplazó su antiguo escritorio por uno mucho más elegante, y sustituyó los cuadros «viejos y feos» que antes disfrutaba por obras más nuevas y costosas. Este cambio de estilo llevó a otro, y poco tiempo después, Diderot se encontraba en bancarrota.Angustiado, escribió: «Yo era el amo absoluto de mi vieja bata, pero me he convertido en esclavo de la nueva». En 1988, Grant McCracken se inspiró en la experiencia de Diderot para acuñar la expresión «efecto Diderot», que describe cómo la adquisición de una nueva posesión puede desencadenar una espiral de consumo que conduce a la ruina.Hoy resulta fácil caer presa del «efecto Diderot», pues con solo tocar unas cuantas veces la pantalla de tu teléfono puedes comprar casi cualquier cosa. Por eso hay tantas personas que luchan por superar la oniomanía (adicción a las compras) y el sobreendeudamiento.Como a Dios le importa cada aspecto de nuestra vida, dejó en su Palabra consejos relacionados con las deudas, el dinero y nuestra actitud hacia los bienes materiales. En el versículo de hoy, Pablo le dice a Timoteo que el cristianismo está íntimamente ligado a una actitud saludable hacia las posesiones. De allí que vivir contentos con lo que tenemos es una «gran ganancia» (RV95).En la época del «solo se vive una vez» la palabra «contentamiento» no encuentra cabida en el léxico de muchos, pero vivir toda la vida endeudados es peor que tener que contentarse con lo que se tiene. ¿Qué camino escogerás tú? ¿Caerás presa del efecto Diderot o le pedirás a Dios que, mientras te encaminas hacia tus metas, te ayude a estar feliz con lo que hoy ya tienes?

Réunis au palais de Whitehall, les membres du Parlement d'Angleterre procèdent à l'intronisation de Guillaume d'Orange et de son épouse Marie. Une révolution est à l'œuvre : lue devant le couple princier, la Déclaration des droits réaffirme solennellement les privilèges parlementaires menacés par les empiètements de la prérogative royale. Appelé à séduire l'Europe des Lumières, le modèle politique anglais a vu le jour.4 juillet 1776. Par la voie de leurs représentants au Congrès de Philadelphie, les colons britanniques rompent les amarres avec la mère patrie. L'acte de naissance des États-Unis d'Amérique, la Déclaration d'indépendance, fait voler en éclats le modèle politique conçu sur les rives de la Tamise et pose les fondements de la république.Tournée contre l'absolutisme, cette nouvelle manière d'appréhender la chose publique a tôt fait de trouver des adeptes sur le Vieux Continent. " Nulle autorité politique qui, créée hier ou il y a mille ans, ne puisse être abrogée dans dix ans ou demain ", observe Denis Diderot. Un ordre immémorial vacille. Il ne tardera pas à trouver son nom de baptême : l'Ancien Régime. Edmond Dziembowski, notre invité par téléphone, en explore les soubresauts avec talent et livre une synthèse magistrale racontant cet autre Grand Siècle, celui des révolutions, qui prit source en Angleterre et s'acheva en France, en passant notamment par les États-Unis.

Enlightenment publications on human anatomy changed the way artists understood their place in the world. Check out these examples of life-changing images brought to you by prints in books!   In s2e31 of Platemark's History of Prints series, Tru and Ann continue their discussion of the Enlightenment. This time they look at several publications that put forward new discoveries about human anatomy: William Hunter's The Anatomy of the Human Gravid Uterus, Bernhard Siegfried Albinus' Tabulae sceleti et musculorum corporis humani, and Jacques Fabien Gautier d'Agoty's Myologie complette en couleur et grandeur naturelle. They conclude with Denis Diderot's Encyclopédie, ou dictionnaire raisonné des sciences, des arts et des métiers, a 17-volume tome that attempted to define and codify all of human knowledge.   At the end of the episode, Ann and Tru wax philosophical about how incredible this blossoming of human knowledge is, and how talking about it makes each of them think about our place as humans on the planet. It gets a bit deep, but worthwhile. A. Hadamart. Exhibition of the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture in the Grande Galerie of the Louvre, 1699. Engraving.

Good morning, everybody. Lee Brower here. Welcome to this edition of Meaningful Monday. I am grateful to be here. I am glad to be here. Have you ever heard of the Diderot effect? Few of you probably have. I had never heard about it until just reading recently, and I was able to link several things to it. So let's talk about where did the Diderot effect come from? It came from the 17th century from a man, French philosopher by the name of Denis Diderot. And what he did is he put together a book he called his encyclopedia, but had all All of the great philosophers, Voltaire, et cetera, brought together on how to run governments, how to put the, and it became well-known and kind of a guideline for a lot of the governments. And Catherine the Great saw it. She wanted to get it somehow. So happens that Diderot, after his fourth child, needed money. So she came in and bought it from him. She let him be the librarian for the rest of his life, but she was able then to access it and use it in her own governing and her enlightenment period going forward. word. One of the things that he talked about later that he wrote about, he said, you know, it was really interesting because when I had that money, I thought, well, I need to buy something. So he said, and he went out and bought the most expensive gown that he could buy. They call it a gown back then. We'd wear it, you know, and it was silk. And once he had the gown, he said, well, I need some shoes. Can't wear these scrutty shoes with this. So he bought some nice shoes, but no, not just one pair, several pair. I need different colors to go in and I need other parts of my outfit, my leggings, my everything. So he just one thing bought another. And then he looked around his house. I need couch. How could I walk in like this when we got pretty furniture like this? And so this cascade of consumption, cascade of consumption starts to happen. Has it happened to you? I think it's happened to all of us in some way. I mean, say you pick up a sport, you're going to golf. What happens is you don't just buy the clubs. Then you got to buy the outfit and then you got to do this outfit because this one is what this, and then you got to get the the right balls. And then this happens and you hear about this and you get a cascade of consumption. Buy a new car, things happen to it. Buy a new furniture, cascaded consumption. And so it's all arrows in because it forces you to think inward, not outward. So, you know, how can we turn that on its head? How can we use that to make ourselves better? How can we turn the arrows out with that? So I think about things that have cascade of events. And I think about our son, Bo, that I've told you about before, how he went through a drive-through, came back and said, I got up there to pay and the car in front of me was already gone and he paid for my hamburger. I said, what'd you do? Well, I paid for the car behind me. You see, there's a cascade now of gratitude, not a cascade of consumption. I had an experience recently on the plane. It's little tiny things, you know. I mean, it's just little tiny things. Sitting there, and the guy's late getting on the plane, and he's kind of one of these guys. You could tell he's stressed out, and he's charging up the aisle and looks up. There's hardly any room. He crams baggies this way, crams baggies, shoves his bag up in there, sits down, plops down, and off we go. And I prejudiced him. I thought, this guy's kind of a jerk, you know. And when we landed, guess what? He's the first one up, wrestles this thing down, puts it down on the aisle right where I can't get out of my seat. You've been there before, right? So you can't move. You're trapped in there. Then he takes his briefcase or backpack, and he's trying to slip it on the handles to stack it. They won't go. So he's, uh, uh. So I'm just sitting there, and I reach over like that, and I grab it, and I move things, kind of adjust it, lift it up. Give me a second. And slid it down for him. Didn't think anything of it. So then I'm sitting there and I'm trying, I want to get my jacket on before we get off. And so you're wrestling with your coat to get it on because you're, you know, you're crammed in that spot. So as I'm wrestling with it, all of a sudden I feel a hand come down and somebody tugs it up and pulls it up over my shoulder and pulls it back the other way. And it was this man and he had a smile. So when I got up, you know, I said, well, thank you very much. Thank you. And we get off the plane and he's standing there. He says, you know, I didn't thank you for your help. I just wanted to make sure that I said, thank you. A cascade of gratitude. What a difference. What a difference. And I think there's so many times in our lives when we have the opportunity to create that cascade. And where other people have created a cascade for us where maybe we didn't even know who they were or they did something for us that we in turn did for somebody else. So here's my challenge for this week. I challenge us. I challenge you. I challenge me to create our own positive Diderot effects through gratitude. A cascade of gratitude. How's that? A cascade of gratitude. Start with one small, meaningful action that's aligned with the mindset, aligned with the arrows out mindset, and watch to see if it doesn't, and even if it doesn't, but just know that it is making an effect on other people's lives. So the empowering question, what small action can I take today that will create a ripple of positive change? Maybe even a cascade of gratitude. Have a meaningful week. Live life deliberately. We'll talk next week.

Något som fascinerat inte bara Geekpodden, utan hela mänskligheter under historiens gång, är listor. Redan i antikens Grekland och Rom användes listor för att kategorisera och bevara kunskap. På 1600-talet såg vi framväxten av encyklopedier, där forskare som Denis Diderot använde listor för att strukturera all världens kunskap på ett tillgängligt sätt. Med filmen (och boken) High Fidelity, fick topp-5 listan ett ordentligt uppsving och det är detta Geekpodden tar fasta på i detta avsnitt. Fredrik, Emil och Patrik har tagit fram ett gäng topp-5 listor i teman som de brinner för just nu! Det kommer blir fantasy, korståg, självgående gräsklippare och strategier.   Detta är första avsnittet på en serie då podden upptäckte att de fanns massvis av fler topplistor de ville nörda ned sig i. Så gillar ni topplistor har ni ett segment att se fram emot framöver. Gillar man detta avsnitt kan man även leta upp avsnitt 244 där Erik och Gustav går bananas med sina topplistor.   Så luta er tillbaka och följ med oss när vi navigerar genom de fascinerande världarna som topp 5-listor har att erbjuda. Oavsett om ni är inbitna listälskare eller bara nyfikna, lovar vi att dagens avsnitt kommer att vara både lärorikt och underhållande.   Medverkande:

Nous sommes le 15 novembre 1766, à Nantes. Louis-Antoine de Bougainville, officier de marine, se voit confié par le roi Louis XV, passionné de géographie, le commandement du premier grand voyage scientifique français. La France est en quête de prestige, il lui faut réaffirmer sa puissance face aux autres acteurs géopolitiques de premier plan, comme la Grande-Bretagne. Bougainville reçoit des instructions aussi précises que les connaissances de l'époque le permettent. Ainsi : « En traversant pour se rendre en Chine, il reconnaîtra dans l'océan Pacifique, autant et du mieux qui lui sera possible, les terres gisantes entre les Indes et la côte occidentale de l'Amérique (...). Comme aucune nation européenne n'a ni établissement ni droit sur ces terres, il ne peut être que très avantageux pour la France de les reconnaître et d'en prendre possession si elles peuvent offrir des objets utiles à son commerce et à sa navigation. (...) Le sieur de Bougainville en examinera les terres, les arbres et les principales productions ; il rapportera des échantillons et des dessins de tout ce qu'il jugera pouvoir mériter attention. » Bougainville met le cap jusqu'aux Malouines, puis s'engage dans le détroit de Magellan avant de parvenir au Pacifique. L'équipage navigue, comme le rapporte, l'explorateur, « au milieu d'îles basses et en partie noyées ». « J'ai nommé l'Archipel dangereux, cet amas d'îles dont nous en avons vu onze, et qui sont probablement en plus grand nombre (…) Parmi ces îles, le marin évoque Tahiti : « Nous courions à pleines voiles vers la terre ( … ), lorsque nous aperçûmes une pirogue qui venait du large et voguait vers la côte, se servant de sa voile et de ses pagaies. Elle nous passa de l'avant et se joignit à une infinité d'autres qui, de toutes les parties de l'île, accouraient au-devant de nous. L'une d'elles précédait les autres ; elle était conduite par douze hommes nus, qui nous présentèrent des branches de bananier, et leurs démonstrations attestaient que c'était là le rameau de l'olivier. Nous leur répondîmes par tous les signes d'amitié dont nous pûmes nous aviser ; alors ils escortèrent le navire, et l'un d'eux, remarquable par son énorme chevelure, hérissée en rayons, nous offrit, avec son rameau de paix, un petit cochon et un régime de bananes. Nous acceptâmes son présent qu'il attacha à une corde qu'on lui jeta. Nous lui donnâmes des bonnets et des mouchoirs, et ces présents furent le gage de notre alliance avec ce peuple (…) Je me croyais transporté, ajoute-t-il, dans le jardin d'Eden ; nous parcourions une plaine de gazon, couverte de beaux arbres fruitiers et coupée de petites rivières qui entretiennent une fraîcheur délicieuse, sans aucun des inconvénients qu'entraîne l'humidité. Un peuple nombreux y jouit des trésors que la nature verse à pleines mains sur lui. Nous trouvions des troupes d'hommes et de femmes assises à l'ombre des vergers ; tous nous saluaient avec amitié ; ceux que nous rencontrions dans les chemins se rangeaient pour nous laisser passer ; partout nous voyions régner l'hospitalité, le repos, une joie douce et toutes les apparences du bonheur. » Quelques années plus tard, l'encyclopédiste Denis Diderot mettra en doute la vision idéalisée de Bougainville. Alors qu'en est-il exactement ? Pagayons, pagayons vers la Polynésie… Notre invité est Nicolas Cauwe, conservateur de la section Océanie des Musées Royaux d'Art et d'Histoire de Bruxelles, directeur de la classe des Sciences humaines de l'Académie royale des Sciences d'Outre-Mer. Il a dirigé l'ouvrage collectif "Trésors de Polynésie" paru aux éditions du CEDARC. Une exposition du même nom est aussi à découvrir au Musée du Malgré-Tout, à Treignes.

Hello Interactors,This is the last post on economics for 2023. Next up for winter is human behavior. This post bridges where we left off with traditional colonial nation-states by talking about how similar philosophies are motivating the formation of neocolonial micro-states. What causes people to seek freedom in new places by limiting the freedom of those found in such places?Let's dig in…THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESSIn 2009 the venture capitalist, techno-optimist, and libertarian political activist Peter Thiel ‘reasoned'. “[he] no longer believes freedom and democracy are compatible.” He said, “The great task for libertarians is to find an escape from politics in all its forms.” Back then Thiel was introducing his ‘seasteading' project — building or repurposing platforms in ocean waters not covered by international law as micro-nations. He continues to lead his friends and followers, like tech mogul Marc Andreessen, toward these promised lands. They seek sophisticated legal spaces opportunistically drawn inside pre-existing territories with curious jurisdictions, legal structures, and rights. They take on names like ‘innovation hubs' or ‘high-tech parks' — techno-libertarian utopian ‘enclaves' and ‘havens' for those willing to adopt and adhere to their techno-optimist religion.My last two posts talked about the creation of nation-states by powerful governments over the centuries and how they contributed to the current wars in Ukraine and Palestine. But there are also battles in the courtroom between these neocolonial libertarian venture capitalists and the people resisting colonization. This is why, as The Economist says, these libertarian colonies “will have their own government, write their own laws, manage their own currency and, eventually, hold their own elections.” And they have the backing of powerful European and U.S. governments. Sound familiar? The original European colonial nation-states were qausi-governmental entities conceived by rich and powerful private entities to further enrich themselves — often at the expense of local people and land. It's a concept that emerged out the European Enlightenment boosted by new scientific discoveries, technologies, and philosophies.Thinkers like John Locke advocated for the concept of natural rights, including life, liberty, and property, which belonged inherently to individuals. These ideas inspired people to seek places where they could express personal autonomy and the freedom to pursue one's own goals and desires free of rule. This contrasted with long held beliefs that placed collective or communal goals above individual aspirations.The Enlightenment is also often associated with the Age of Reason. Influential philosophers like René Descartes and Immanuel Kant emphasized the role of reason in understanding the world and making decisions. They argued that individuals should use their capacity for rational thought to question traditional authorities and beliefs, thus promoting a more individualistic approach to knowledge and truth. Reason is the hallmark of libertarian political philosophy today.But they're not alone. Rationalism has long been a cornerstone of human understanding, though faces many challenges today. Advances in neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and philosophy reveal that rationality is not a neutral tool but is often influenced by power structures, cultural biases, and subjective experiences. What is considered 'rational' can vary across different cultural and social contexts.For example, the ‘rational actor' theory on which mainstream economics rests doesn't factor in confirmation bias — favoring information that confirms preexisting beliefs. A growing number of neuroscientists are revealing confirmation bias triggers activity in brain regions involved in reward processing, suggesting some biases may be rooted in fundamental neural mechanisms.One of the preexisting beliefs of early Enlightenment thinkers, theologians, and colonial settlers is the idea that morality and ethics are not solely dictated by external authorities (like the church or state) but can be discerned through personal reasoning and rational introspection. This led to a more personal and individualistic approach to moral decisions. This may a form of confirmation bias suggesting moral principles should be followed out of a sense of personal duty over a duty to the community.This shift played a crucial role in shaping modern Western societies, influencing everything from political theory to personal identity.These ideas are intermingled in European colonialism and state-making. European powers, perceiving themselves as more 'civilized' and 'rational', used these beliefs to legitimize the domination of other peoples, whom they considered less enlightened or rational. This paternalistic view was used to rationalize the spread of European control and influence across the globe, often disregarding the autonomy and cultural values of colonized peoples.While Enlightenment thinkers championed personal freedom and autonomy, these ideals were selectively applied. Colonial powers often deny these rights to the people in their newly formed colonies, leading to a glaring contradiction between Enlightenment ideals and colonial practices. This paradox is what fuels anti-colonial movements to argue for independence and self-determination just as colonizers did against their religious, feudal, and imperial tyrants.The individualistic approach to morality and ethics of the Enlightenment era led to significant debates and critiques regarding the moral implications of colonialism that are alive today. Some Enlightenment thinkers, like Denis Diderot, Rousseau, and Voltaire and later the abolitionists, criticized colonialism and slavery on moral grounds. Even early American colonizers like Roger Williams, John Woolman, and Thomas Paine criticized the inhumane treatment of Native Americans and the unjust rights of exploitation of land and labor. However, the cloak of moral and civilizational superiority ultimately justified colonial practices then and now.LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALLAre these neocolonial ‘zones of opportunity' just another cloak of moral and civilizational superiority that ultimately justifies total disregard for the autonomy and cultural values of the local people and land? And like other attempts to support colonization, are they endorsed by powerful governments and Western financial institutions? Yes, they are.In 2013, the Honduran government under President Juan Orland Hernández, after controversially reconstituting its Supreme Court, passed the "ZEDEs law" to create "Zones for Employment and Economic Development." These zones, inspired by former World Bank Economist Paul Romer's Charter City concept, involved selling Honduran territory to foreign investors at low costs. The Society for the Socioeconomic Development of Honduras, later known as Honduras Próspera LLC, was established in Biden's home Company State and tax haven, Delaware.Próspera is funded by Peter Thiel and Marc Andreesen and was envisioned as a libertarian utopia. They want to develop a ‘zone' in Crawfish Rock, a small, historically significant community located on the island of Roatán, part of the Bay Islands in Honduras. Its English-speaking origins can be traced back to the early 19th century when the British Empire exerted influence over the region, leading to a significant influx of English-speaking Black Caribbean descendants. Over the years, Crawfish Rock has maintained its unique cultural and linguistic identity, with English remaining the primary language, a testament to its historical ties to the British colonial era and the diverse migration patterns in the Caribbean. An organization has formed to protect these people, their homes, and their heritage — as well as other areas like it in Honduras from ‘neocolonial invasion'.The Vice President of the Crawfish Rock governing council Venessa Cardenas Woods put it plainly, “If you take away our land, if you take away our cultural heritage, our way of living, you take away everything, the entire identity of the group as English-speaking blacks, then you would be eliminating an entire people.”Meanwhile, Prospera's President, Joel Bomgar, who also happens to be a member of the Mississippi House of Representatives, believes, “The concept of free private cities and charter cities, specifically what Próspera is trying to do, is the most transformative project in the world.” Bomgar previously started and then sold a remote access software company for support technicians.Lest you think this is purely a conservative GOP libertarian affair, it was the Obama administration that created a “U.S. Strategy for Engagement in Central America.” Optimistically stating, “While the United States will need to invest significant resources in such an effort, the success of the strategy will depend far more on the readiness of Central American governments to continue to demonstrate political will and undertake substantial political and economic commitments to bring about positive change in the region.”Their efforts and dollars instead supported a government coup and the rise of Hernández which ultimately reshaped the Honduras constitution, reassembled the supreme court, and forced the formation of U.S. backed ‘zones' into law. The coup was unanimously condemned by the UN General Assembly.   In a made-for-tv twist, fast forward to 2022, Honduran President Juan Orland Hernández was arrested, detained, and then extradited at the request of the United States government on drug and arms charges. The Hondurans then elected Xiomar Castro as the country's first female president. She is also the wife of Manuel Zelaya who was ousted in the coup. Her mandate is political platform, social justice, poverty reduction, and opposition to neoliberal policies.She wasted no time. The Honduran Congress voted unanimously to repeal ‘zone' laws and appointed a committee to oversee their elimination. Próspera also wasted no time. Months later the corporation filed a $10.7 billion dollar claim against the Honduran government. This equates to 80% of the Honduran total governmental expenditures. They claim it's a violation of the U.S. Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA-DR).Members of the U.S. Congress and Biden administration sought to defend and expand CAFTA provisions to further protect U.S. investments. This system of public-private strong-arming of weaker countries is embedded in U.S. bilateral investment treaties. It can create legal and power imbalances that allow corporations to sue governments for regulations affecting profits without reciprocal accountability for corporate crimes — including violations of the very labor laws and environmental protections Libertarians seek to avoid in the creation of their so-called ‘havens'.The Biden administration's approach to international trade law and the ongoing case of Honduras challenges existing trade norms. Honduras is actively resisting this system, with President Castro's government seeking to reform the international trade system and restrict corporate power from neocolonial expansion.As Honduras prepares to lead the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) in 2024, this issue is set to become a central topic in hemispheric discussions. The case underscores the importance of eliminating unfair provisions from U.S. trade agreements to safeguard democracy against corporate interventions. The stakes are high, not just financially but also in terms of the autonomy of cultural values, community identity, and environmental protections. This is a public episode.

Denis Diderot era un escritor y filósofo francés. Considerado un genio en su época, una de sus máximas obras y colaboraciones fue la Enciclopedia: una compilación de setenta y dos mil artículos relacionados al arte, la ciencia y los oficios. Esto lo hizo junto con Jean-Baptiste D'Alembert (yan baptist dalembert) otro prominente pensador. Esta fue la obra más importante de su siglo. Hoy nos nutriremos con esta reflexión: “Nos tragamos con rapidez cualquier mentira que nos halague, pero sorbemos poco a poco una verdad que nos resulta amarga.”

Qu'est-ce que Jacques le fataliste de Denis Diderot ? Pourquoi nous posons-nous des questions métaphysiques sur le sens de l'existence ? Et celles-ci peuvent-elles trouver des réponses ? Est-il raisonnable de croire que le monde à un sens ? Et de vouloir continuer à le chercher ? Pourquoi vaut-il mieux rire de notre condition que de s'en plaindre ? Et pourquoi la "vraie" philosophie consiste-t-elle à se moquer de ceux qui se prennent pour des philosophes ? Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/kosmos. Hébergé par Acast.

In Positive Atheism: Bayle, Meslier, d'Holbach, Diderot (Edinburgh University Press, 2021), Dr. Charles Devellennes looks at the religious, social, and political thought of the first four thinkers of the French Enlightenment: Pierre Bayle, Jean Meslier, Paul-Henri Thiry d'Holbach and Denis Diderot to explicitly argue for atheism as a positive philosophy. He shows how atheism evolved considerably over the century that spans the works of these four authors: from the possibility of the virtuous atheist in the late 17th century, to a deeply rooted materialist philosophy with radical social and political consequences by the eve of the French revolution. The metamorphosis of atheism from a purely negative phenomenon to one that became self-aware had profound consequences for establishing an ethics without God and the rise of republicanism as a political philosophy. Charles Devellennes is a Senior Lecturer in Political and Social Thought at University of Kent's School of Politics and International Relations. His research interests lie in the interdisciplinary area of the history of political thought, specifically with eighteenth century political thought in the field of religion and politics, and the rise of atheism in France at this time.
