Capitalism and COVID-19: Time to Make a Democratic New World Order proposes the deepening of democracy in a post-capitalist world. It suggests that humans should be placed back in nature and nature back in humans and argues for a global environmental movement. The book maintains that the free market should serve people and planet – instead of people and planet serving the free market. It motivates for enabling the state in leading the transition to a post-capitalist world. A post-capitalist society should ensure planetary and peoples' well-being together with economic well-being. Economic science in its current ideological form should be revisited. Exiting capitalism requires the unity of workers of all countries. Capitalism and COVID-19: Time to Make a Democratic New World Order calls for reimagining and recreating the best of all possible worlds for present and future generations. In the final analysis Noel Chellan predicts and maintains that capitalism too shall pass!

Der Sammelband bündelt Aufsätze zur literarischen Darstellung von Krankheiten und Mengen. Die einzelnen Beiträge zielen auf das ästhetische (Erzähl-)Potenzial im Verhältnis dieser beiden Sujets zueinander. Sie nehmen dabei Fragen nach Phänomenen der Ansteckung, der Darstellung von Krankheiten, Versuchen der Ordnung von Menge zur Vermeidung von Krankheitsausbreitung oder dem Verhältnis zwischen Individuum und Menge im Zustand der Krankheit in den Blick. In komparatistischer Anlage durchläuft der Sammelband Stationen der Reflexion über Menge und Krankheit vom Mittelalter bis zur Gegenwart

Andy Blunden completes his immanent critique of Activity Theory, begun in 2010 with An Interdisciplinary Theory of Activity . A summary of the ontological foundations of Activity Theory introduces a critical review of the work of activity theorists across the world with a focus of applications in medical and educational contexts, and concluded with a review of the ethics of collaboration. Blunden expands the domain of Activity Theory to address the pressing problems facing humanity today and activities lacking in clear objects, collaboration in voluntary projects and social movements, the life projects of individuals and emerging practices. Blunden brings an understanding of Marxist and Hegelian philosophy to bear on the application of Activity Theory to problems of social change

This book develops a grammatical method for our underlying presuppositions which can help us unravel the problem of evil. The problem essentially rests on a dualism between fact and meaning. Evil and Intelligibility provides an examination of the grammar of being and of the intelligibility of the world, culminating in a philosophical grammar in which God, meaning, and evil can coexist
