What if there was a secret city at work on finding answers to the survival of humanity? Technologies beyond your imagination. A city expanding, recruiting, and evolving. There is no government, no money, no bosses, institutions, cars, or roads; and age takes on new meaning. This "facity" is one big research product in and of itself, and nothing else quite like it exists on this Earth.
This is the city that Erwin Sharp and his family are drawn into...

Le premier, le seul réel, mais aussi le plus difficile, parce qu'il implique l'abolition de l'État c'est-à-dire l'abolition de l'exploitation politiquement organisée de la majorité par une minorité quelconque, ce serait la satisfaction directe et complète de tous les besoins, de toutes les aspirations humaines des masses; ce qui équivaudrait...

A utopia is an imagined community or society that possesses highly desirable or nearly perfect qualities for its citizens. The term was coined by Sir Thomas More for his 1516 book Utopia, describing a fictional island society in the south Atlantic Ocean off the coast of South America. The opposite of a utopia is a dystopia, which dominates the fictional literature. Dystopian fiction (sometimes combined with, but distinct from, apocalyptic fiction)...

En un formidable esfuerzo de selección, Martín Bergel propone una sugestiva clave de lectura de un corpus que parece inabarcable: a contrapelo de una interpretación de Mariátegui que lo asimila a una tradición "nacional-popular", esta Antología recupera la riqueza de un pensamiento tan tensionado por su voluntad de marxismo para encauzar los problemas peruanos como por la inquietud cosmopolita y el internacionalismo.
Así, en estos textos se...

Bombs destroy a city; an equality bomb destroys a people.
The Equality Bomb, like rent control, is manufactured by well-intentioned rulers who don't understand what they are doing. They, just as advocates of rent control, see disparities among groups in the population, are pained by them, and seek to do good by eradicating them.
"I should sooner live in a society governed by the first two thousand names in the Boston telephone directory than...

94) Tricking Power into Performing Acts of Love: How Tricksters Through History Have Changed the World
Author

Yet when Pryor tells the story in very raw terms, and with his comic talent, the audience laughs. As a time-traveling trickster, Pryor is preparing the audience, lubricating their psychic joints-spiritually, psychologically, politically-in a foreshadowing today's reckoning. It can be checked out on Richard Pryor: Live...

Le terme d'utopie, inconnu du grec, a été forgé par Thomas More pour figurer dans le titre donné par lui à ce qui, de son propre aveu, ne devait être qu'une « bagatelle littéraire échappée presque à son insu de sa plume », c'est-à-dire ce petit libelle sur la « meilleure des Républiques » sise en la nouvelle île d'Utopie.
