Se qualche volta ti vengono in mente strani interrogativi, se hai la testa piena di "perché", "e se...", "ma allora...", forse potresti essere un buon filosofo. Fare filosofia non vuol dire, infatti, conoscere tutte le soluzioni, ma ragionare con metodo per cercare le risposte. In questo libro troverai una raccolta delle domande più famose, più complesse e più bizzarre che i filosofi si sono posti nel corso dei secoli: ti va di seguirli nei loro grandi dilemmi ed esperimenti mentali? Magari puoi coinvolgere anche amici e genitori. E ricordati: uno dei più grandi filosofi di tutti i tempi, Socrate, è diventato famoso proprio per aver detto: "Io so di non sapere!". Età di lettura: da 12 anni.

Policy action is driven, shaped and regulated by the ways in which cognitive frames and interests shape and define issues and analyses - and the involvement of particular authorities, experts, problem-definitions and solutions. To understand these processes is particularly important in the realm of democratic policymaking, where agents driven by divergent interests and alternative principles struggle to preserve or reform policy, law, and institutions. This book analyzes continuity and change in EU policy and provides a systematic understanding of the interactions between ideas, organized actors, and institutions in political, administrative and related social processes. The EU policy studies make up a rich empirical territory, ranging from food securityand chemicals to energy, climate change, and gender.
