Story
Poison Ivy tells the bigger, seedier story of how elite colleges create paths to admission available only to the wealthy, despite rhetoric to the contrary. Evan Mandery reveals how tacit agreements between exclusive "Ivy-plus" schools and white affluent suburbs create widespread de facto segregation. And as a college degree continues to be the surest route to upward mobility, the inequality bred in our broken higher education system is now a principal driver of skyrocketing income inequality everywhere.

Story
Grace Blakeley erfindet Kapitalismuskritik neu. Theoretisch fundiert, erfrischend klug und mit umfassender Recherche zeigt sie, dass kapitalistische Strukturen Freiheitnicht fördern, sondern bedrohen. Die Krisen dieser Welt sind keine Ausnahmen, sondern logische Folge des real existierenden Kapitalismus. Nur wenn die Macht von Großkonzernen und der Finanzwelt eingehegt wird, kann die Politik der Alternativlosigkeit überwunden und die Demokratie gerettet werden.

Story
The middle class is the most successful group in world history. Sometime before 2030 the fifth billionth person will join the middle class. What started a little over two hundred years ago as a search for a better life has fueled unprecedented global transformation. In his new book Homi Kharas looks at how this powerful dream captivated generations through history, but its demands have led younger generations to ask if it is all worth it. Can the middle class continue to thrive, or will it falter under the stresses of automation, consumerism, pollution, and political strife?

Story
Paola Mastrocola e Luca Ricolfi per la prima volta insieme in un libro per denunciare a due voci il paradossale e tragico abbaglio della scuola democratica, che, nata per salvare i più deboli, oggi di fatto ne annega le speranze. Due voci, di cui una lancia un’ipotesi e l’altra la raccoglie, provandola con la forza dei dati, testandola con modelli matematici e arrivando alla conferma. Sì, è così: una scuola facile e di bassa qualità allarga il solco fra ceti alti e ceti bassi. Un disastro, di cui rendere conto e chiedere scusa, ai ragazzi e alle loro famiglie.

Selflove? Warum? Wenn jeder nur an sich denkt, ist an niemanden gedacht. Wir müssen das individuelle Wohl wieder stärker in Beziehung zum Wohl der Allgemeinheit setzen und Armut, Glück, Klimakrise und Demokratie mehr denn je zu politischen Kampfzonen erklären. Für ein gutes Leben für alle. Jean-Philippe Kindler ist auf der Suche nach neuen gesellschaftlichen Konzepten. Er geht mit sich, seiner Generation und den Linken genauso hart ins Gericht wie mit den Konservativen und dem Kapitalismus – ein wütendes, inspirierendes, langersehntes Hörbuch.

Neste best-seller internacional, a jornalista Isabel Wilkerson, vencedora do prêmio Pulitzer, compara os Estados Unidos, a Índia e a Alemanha nazista, revelando como nosso mundo foi moldado pela noção de casta — e como suas hierarquias rígidas e arbitrárias nos dividem ainda hoje. Escrito de modo criativo e original, Casta fornece pistas importantes para entender a crise da democracia nas sociedades ocidentais e o que está por trás dos protestos antirracistas que assumiram dimensões globais após o assassinato de George Floyd.

Story
« Les hommes sont plus riches que les femmes. Dès l’enfance, les garçons reçoivent plus d’argent de poche que les filles. Adultes, à poste égal, les femmes sont moins bien payées que les hommes. Et le couple accentue encore les inégalités : au cours de la vie à deux, l’écart ne cesse de se creuser, sans que ni l’une ni l’autre ne s’en rende compte. Ou bien préfère l’ignorer. Chaque fois, il y a des explications et une combinaison de “bonnes raisons” mais le tableau général est accablant. J’écris depuis des années sur les violences sexuelles, le travail domestique, l’invisibilisation des femmes.

A economia da desigualdade demonstra que o antagonismo esquerda/direita do debate político não discorda necessariamente em suas noções de justiça social, mas sim nos mecanismos econômicos que produzem a desigualdade e em como minorá-la. Em edição atualizada, o audiolivro é mais uma valiosa aula de Piketty sobre a natureza da distribuição de renda e o cenário econômico mundial.

Americans are in the midst of a world-historic drug binge. Opiates, amphetamines, benzodiazepines, marijuana, antidepressants, antipsychotics—across the board, consumption has shot up in the twenty-first century. At the same time, the United States is home to the largest prison system in the world, justified in part by a now zombified "war" on drugs. How did we get here?

Parasite : nom masculin. « Organisme qui se nourrit strictement aux dépens d’un organisme hôte d’une espèce différente ». Les parasites ne sont pas ceux que l’on croit. La véritable classe parasite est celle qui est située au sommet du corps social, cette classe bourgeoise qui a envahi la société tout entière, rachetant ses médias, finançant ses hommes politiques, exploitant ses travailleurs au plus bas prix possible. En retour, cette classe ne nous apporte rien. Pire, elle nous coûte bien plus cher qu’elle ne nous rapporte. Elle nuit plus qu’elle brille.

Eigentlich hatte Didier Eribon sich vorgenommen, ab jetzt regelmäßig nach Fismes zu fahren. Doch seine Mutter stirbt wenige Wochen nach ihrem Umzug in ein Pflegeheim in dem kleinen Ort in der Champagne. Wie in Rückkehr nach Reims wird dieser Einschnitt zum Ausgangspunkt für eine Reise in die Vergangenheit. Eribon rekonstruiert die von Knappheit und Zwängen bestimmte Biografie einer Frau, die an einen brutalen Ehemann gekettet blieb und sich sogar in ihren Träumen bescheiden musste. "Meine Mutter", hält er fest, "war ihr ganzes Leben lang unglücklich."

Da Prada ai Ferragnez, ritratti della vera nobilità italiana. Quella senza blasone. Chi sono e cosa fanno i ricchi in Italia, oggi? Quelli che i soldi li hanno da sempre, gli aristocratici, ne hanno sempre meno. E la borghesia, col suo tanto decantato fascino discreto e con l'operosità instancabile? E i nuovi ricchi, quelli delle start up, che diventano milionari in una notte, esistono o sono solo una specie d'oltreoceano? Con il piglio del naturalista Michele Masneri inizia un esilarante viaggio attraverso il bel Paese alla scoperta di questa specie facoltosa, deciso a descriverne vizi, virtù e abitudini.
