Títulos em Política e Governo

O mundo está mudando depressa. Os alicerces de um futuro mais saudável, limpo e próspero estão sendo construídos.E, neste novo contexto, o Brasil, por suas potencialidades naturais, pode assumir uma posição de enorme destaque. É esta a oportunidade histórica que não podemos perder.

Documento histórico–esta seria a melhor maneira de classificar a narrativa que Fernando Gabeira empreende para nos contar, em primeira pessoa, como jovens guerrilheiros, em 1969, conseguiram realizar a mais espetacular proeza de um grupo de esquerda: o sequestro do embaixador americano. O então jornalista recém-saído do Jornal do Brasil e seus companheiros de organização "trocaram" a vida do embaixador pela libertação de 15 presos políticos.

Há poucas fronteiras ainda não exploradas em nosso planeta. Talvez a mais selvagem, e quase desconhecida, sejam os oceanos: grandes demais para serem policiados e sem jurisdição internacional evidente, essas imensas regiões de águas traiçoeiras abrigam índices galopantes de criminalidade e exploração.

Por que nós brasileiros, apesar de não confiarmos nos políticos, a quem dedicamos insultos dos mais criativos e variados, pedimos que o governo intervenha sempre que surgem problemas? Por que vamos às ruas protestar contra os políticos, e ao mesmo tempo pedir mais presença do Estado - como se este não fosse gerenciado pelos próprios políticos? Por que odiamos os políticos e amamos o Estado? Por que chegamos à condição de depender do Estado para quase tudo?

Maps have a mysterious hold over us. Whether ancient, crumbling parchments or generated by Google, maps tell us things we want to know, not only about our current location or where we are going but about the world in general. And yet, when it comes to geo-politics, much of what we are told is generated by analysts and other experts who have neglected to refer to a map of the place in question.

An exposé of the unprecedented form of power called “surveillance capitalism,” and the quest by powerful corporations to predict and control our behavior “Groundbreaking, magisterial, alarming.” – Financial Times The heady optimism of the Internet’s early days has turned dark...

The Strange Death of Europe is a highly personal account of a continent and culture caught in the act of suicide. Declining birth rates, mass immigration, and cultivated self-distrust and self-hatred have come together to make Europeans unable to argue for themselves and incapable of resisting their own comprehensive alteration as a society and an eventual end.

Today, a new axis of autocrats is trying to reshape the world order and sideline the United States in international affairs. The New Imperialists delivers eye-opening details of how three major global players—Russia, China, and Iran—are working with each other and with key allies, such as North Korea and Venezuela, to unseat the U.S. as a global leader. The challenge is profound and requires both leadership and action from Washington.

لعل أصدق وصف لهذا الكتاب أنه يمثل بحق مرآة العصر، فقد تناول فيه «عبد العزيز البشري» بالنقد والتحليل عددًا من أبرز شخصيات عصره في مختلف المجالات؛ كالسياسة، والطب، والفن، والشعر، والاقتصاد. هؤلاء الذين ساهموا في صناعة تاريخ مصر في تلك الحقبة، والذين ما زالوا حتى الآن مادة أساسية للبحث والاستقصاء. ويعكس لنا المؤلف صورة ألمع شخصيات العصر بالنسبة للأدباء والمفكرين، ولا يخفى على القارئ اللبيب الاتجاه السياسي الذي يمثله المؤلف؛ الأمر الذي ظهر جليًّا فى كتابته، حيث أشاد بدور كل من «سعد باشا زغلول» و«مصطفى باشا النحاس».

Why, when it comes to lethal violence, is America so different from the rest of the globe? The United States is wealthier, better educated, more technologically sophisticated, more religious than almost any of its peers in the developed world—all of which would suggest that it should also have the lowest levels of violence. Yet the opposite is true.

«إنَّ الإنسانَ لَيتطلَّعُ إلى عصرٍ ذهبيٍّ تَسودُ فيهِ الحريةُ والسلامُ والعدلُ والحبُّ الأَخوي، عصرٍ لا تَسُلُّ فيهِ أمَّةٌ على أمَّةٍ سَيفًا ولا يُقاتِلُ الإنسانُ فيهِ أخاهُ الإنسان، عصرٍ يُؤدِّي فيهِ تطوُّرُ كلِّ أمَّةٍ وتقدُّمُها إلى تَطوُّرِ الأُممِ الأُخرى جميعًا وتقدُّمِها، عصرٍ يَعرِفُ الناسُ فيه جميعًا ربَّهُم حقَّ المعرفةِ ويَغمُرُ عُقولَهم العلمُ ببارِيهم كما تَغمُرُ المياهُ البحار.»

He looked like a movie star. He sounded like the future. And for a moment, he made America believe in something again. But behind the charm, the suits, and the speeches, John F. Kennedy was walking a tightrope between legacy and rebellion. Between image and truth. Between power and the people who actually run things. JFK: The Man Who Went Off Script isn’t just another presidential biography. It’s a sharp, unflinching look at how one man stepped out of the role he was born to play and what happened when he did. From the dynastic grip of Joe Kennedy Sr.

Entrepreneurial communities based on contracts among individuals are the most natural organization of a free society. So say Spencer Heath and Spencer MacCallum. They argue that such organizations are superior to coercion-based States. Among other advantages, they show how entrepreneurial communities would be the most efficient vehicles to supply consumers with what in economics are called "public goods."

El nuevo ensayo de José Sánchez Tortosa nos ofrece una profunda y poco complaciente radiografía de la sociedad actual. En él disecciona algunos de los fenómenos más inquietantes de nuestra época: el auge del tribalismo identitario, la extensión del narcisismo a ultranza, la desconexión de amplísimas capas de población respecto al saber humanístico y filosófico, la degradación de la educación, la feudalización digital, el infantilismo y la sentimentalización de la política, la ruptura de una idea compartida de ciudadanía, las manifestaciones renovadas de antisemitismo…

Forgotten Founding Father captures the early struggles and international successes of this amazing leader. The result is a portrait of a gifted but flawed human who yielded himself as a tool in the hands of a sovereign God. Also portrayed is how important Whitfield was to the American cause and how much Americans today owe to him—a story that will inspire a new generation with a past vividly and truthfully retold.

AI is inescapable, from its mundane uses online to its increasingly consequential decision-making in courtrooms, job interviews, and wars. The ubiquity of AI is so great that it might produce public resignation—a sense that the technology is our shared fate. As economist Maximilian Kasy shows in The Means of Prediction, artificial intelligence, far from being an unstoppable force, is irrevocably shaped by human decisions—choices made to date by the ownership class that steers its development and deployment.

In Gaetano Mosca's groundbreaking work, The Ruling Class (originally published as Elementi di Scienza Politica in 1896), the Italian political philosopher shatters the illusions of pure democracy by revealing a timeless truth: in every society, from ancient civilizations to modern nations, power is always concentrated in the hands of an organized minority–the ruling class.

Reading all of President Trump's accomplishments in his first 365 days in office—all 365 of them. "Securing America’s Borders and Putting Americans First” is a bullet-point scorecard of what the Trump Administration says it achieved in its first year. On immigration, it claims negative net migration in 2025, more than 2.6 million removals plus two million “self-deportations,” sharply lower illegal crossings, and reduced fentanyl trafficking, supported by detention over release, renewed wall construction, visa revocations, and tougher actions against cartel and terrorism-linked entrants.

Isabel Clara Eugenia (1566-1633) fue la hija favorita de Felipe II, el rey más poderoso de su tiempo, y de Isabel de Valois. Tras su matrimonio con su primo el archiduque Alberto, Felipe II los nombró príncipes soberanos de los Países Bajos, misión que llevaron a cabo con prudencia y acierto en medio de graves dificultades. Y donde fueron mecenas de muchos artistas, en especial de Pedro Pablo Rubens. Esta nueva novela de Magdalena Velasco Kindelán recupera la memoria de otra gran mujer de la Casa de Austria.

He wasn’t supposed to rule. He wasn’t even supposed to be seen. But when the middle son of a dying dictator stepped into power, he didn’t just inherit a country. He inherited the bomb. This is the true story of Kim Jong Un, the most mysterious and dangerous leader of the modern era.
