![]() ![]() Author: Murray Douglas Publisher: BEAT "La strana morte dell'Europa" mostra senza ipocrisie e nascondimenti tre aspetti fondamentali della crisi che scuote il nostro continente, dinanzi ai quali chiudere gli occhi implica soltanto lasciare campo libero all'estrema destra razzista: 1) il radicale cambiamento nella composizione culturale e religiosa che l'immigrazione già comporta e può, a maggior ragione, comportare in futuro; 2) il naufragio del multiculturalismo; 3) l'illusione, coltivata soprattutto dalle élite liberal, di affidare l'integrazione a quella che Murray definisce «cieca fede nella società dei consumi». Questi sono solo alcuni dei motivi per cui la cultura europea, dopo tanti secoli d'oro, rischia di spegnersi. Il venir meno di una narrazione unificante riguardo al passato e di idee su presente e futuro sarebbe stato un problema in qualsiasi momento, ma in un'epoca di grandi mutamenti sociali si sta dimostrando addirittura fatale. La storia ci insegna che alcuni movimenti migratori influiscono relativamente poco su una cultura nel lungo periodo, mentre altri la alterano in maniera irreversibile. Il problema non sta nell'accettare o meno il cambiamento, ma nel comprendere quanto possa essere trasformativo. Dopo aver attraversato il Continente dal cuore della Svezia settentrionale fino al Sud Italia, interpellando politici, esponenti di polizia di frontiera, servizi segreti, ONG e migranti appena approdati, Douglas Murray analizza la crisi dell'Europa odierna e il fallimento abissale delle élite politiche, offrendo al lettore due visioni - una speranzosa, l'altra pessimista - per comprendere cosa sia € 15,50

![]() ![]() Author: Murray Douglas Publisher: Guerini e Associati Una delle domande fondamentali attorno cui ruota Guerra all'Occidente è: «Se la storia dell'umanità è fatta di schiavitù, conquiste, pregiudizi, genocidio e sfruttamento, perché solo le nazioni occidentali se ne prendono la colpa?» Gli aspetti identitari dei paesi occidentali sono alla gogna. La tradizione giudaico-cristiana si trova sotto attacco e subisce costanti diffamazioni. Lo stesso può dirsi per la tradizione del secolarismo e dell'Illuminismo, radici di tanta qualità politica, scientifica e artistica. Attraverso questo saggio Douglas Murray propone un'incisiva decostruzione di argomenti incoerenti e attivismo ipocrita, spiegando come l'antirazzismo rischi di diventare un'arma di distruzione di massa e innescando una polemica essenziale e urgente che lo consolida come uno dei principali autori politici del mondo. € 29,00

![]() ![]() Author: Murray Douglas Publisher: Neri Pozza Questo libro muove da una constatazione oggettiva, da uno stato delle cose che balza davanti agli occhi di tutti ogni giorno: la pazzia delle folle. Non è un fenomeno riscontrabile soltanto on line, dove i cosiddetti hater abbondano, ma anche nella vita quotidiana in cui la gente si comporta in maniera sempre più irrazionale. Murray, tuttavia, non si limita semplicemente a descrivere il fenomeno, ne mostra le cause. Viviamo in un'epoca definita post-moderna, un termine ambiguo che indica però un dato di fatto: la fine delle grandi narrazioni, delle fedi religiose e politiche che hanno alimentato i secoli passati, e la conseguente negazione di ogni verità che non sia soltanto un'interpretazione. Si può vivere, però, senza un criterio che orienti le nostre scelte? Senza nessun racconto che offra un perché alla vita? Poiché la natura aborre il vuoto, nella nostra epoca post-moderna si è fatta strada, secondo Murray, una nuova metafisica, una nuova religione: la «politica identitaria». Una politica che «atomizza a la società in diversi gruppi d'interesse in base al sesso (o genere), alla razza, alle preferenze sessuali e così via». E che invita costantemente a cercare «dentro noi stessi e negli altri tutte le istanze di identità e vulnerabilità» capaci di rivendicare un valore aggiunto, una superiorità morale che deve essere riconosciuta come un diritto indiscusso. Questa religione "identitaria" non può, per Murray, che generare follia. Quella follia che spinge, ad esempio, a dichiarare che vi è «un'accresciuta conoscenza morale» derivante dal fatto di essere neri o donne o gay € 23,00

![]() ![]() Author: Straus Murray A., Douglas Emily M., Medeiros Rose Anne Publisher: Routledge Academic Why do parents hit those they love? What effect does it have on children? What can be done to end this pattern? These are some of the questions explored in The Primordial Violence. Featuring longitudinal data from over 7,000 U.S. families as well as results from a 32 nation study, the book presents the latest research on the extent to which spanking is used in different cultures and the subsequent effects of its use on children and on society. Evidence that shows the relationship between spanking and the subsequent slowing of cognitive development and increase in antisocial and criminal behavior is shown. Both cross-sectional and longitudinal studies are explored in an accessible fashion. An abundance of high quality research has produced findings that are highly consistent from study to study which show that spanking is a risk factor for aggressive behavior and other social and psychological problems. Because of these findings, the authors argue for policy changes and recommend a drastic reduction in the use of spanking. Policy and practical implications are explored in most chapters. The Primordial Violence highlights: The benefits of avoiding spanking such as the development of better interpersonal skills and higher academic achievement; The link between spanking and behavioral problems and crime; The extent to which spanking is declining and why despite the unusually high level of agreement between numerous studies which found harmful effects from spanking, most parents continue to spank. Part 1 documents the worldwide use of spanking and why parents spank. The possible adverse effects of spanking on children’s behavior and academic achievement, and the potential for violence and criminal behavior in later life, are explored in Parts 2, 3, and 4. Part 5 examines trends in spanking, and suggests what can be done to lower the percent of parents who spank. Contradictory opinions about whether to spank are explored. The book concludes with a call for change in this aspect of parenting which will have profound benefits, for the children and families involved, and society as a whole. Intended for a general audience of readers who are interested in child development and parenting and for advanced undergraduate and/or graduate courses in child abuse, family violence, juvenile delinquency, criminal behavior, social development, sociology of the family, or parenting and family relations taught in psychology, human development, family studies, criminology, education, social work, sociology, and social policy. € 261,80

![]() ![]() Author: Fuller Douglas B. (EDT), Rubinstein Murray A. (EDT) Publisher: Routledge Examining the flow of technical knowledge between the US, Taiwan and Mainland China over the last sixty-five years, this book shows that the technical knowledge that has moved between these states is vast and varied. It includes the invention and production of industrial goods, as well as knowledge of the patterns of corporate organization and management. Indeed, this diversity is reflected in the process itself, which is driven both by returning expatriates with knowledge acquired overseas and by successful government intervention in acquiring technology from multinational firms. Technology Transfer Between the US, China and Taiwan engages with the evolving debates on the merits, importance and feasibility of technology transfer in the process of economic development globally, and uses the example of Taiwan to show that multinational corporations can indeed play a positive role in economic development. Further, it reveals the underlying tension between international cooperation and nationalism which inevitably accompanies international exchanges, as well as the delicate balancing act required between knowledge acquisition and dangerous levels of dependency, and the beneficial role of the US in East Asia’s technological development. With contributors from disciplines ranging from history, geography, urban planning, sociology, political science and electrical engineering, this multi-disciplinary book will be of great interest to students and scholars working across a broad range of subjects including Taiwan studies, Chinese studies, economics, business studies and development studies. € 149,60

It is about the efforts of a group of people to arrive at truth and a country's effort?three decades on?at a painful and perhaps incomplete reconciliation.

![]() ![]() Author: Murray Douglas Publisher: Casa Editrice Pagine Una difesa vigorosa da parte di uno dei più controversi filosofi politici del nostro tempo. In questo libro moderno Douglas Murray spiega cosa sia il neoconservatorismo, in teoria e in pratica lo difende contro le critiche e spiega perché-malgrado le dichiarazioni rumorose dei suoi avversari, il neoconservatorismo sia giusto. Scrive Murray: "Il neoconservatorismo non è un nuovo conservatorismo". E con questo pone le basi di una definizione che contiene una strategia politica. Poiché, vuole dire, non deve trattarsi della riverniciatura di un partito, ma della rifondazione dello stesso facendo convivere in esso i principi ispiratori con le istanze della modernità, sul piano culturale oltre che nell'ambito propriamente politico. € 14,00

![]() ![]() Author: Murray Douglas Publisher: Encounter Books Neo Conservatism: Why We Need It is a defense of the most controversial political philosophy of our era. Douglas Murray takes a fresh look at the movement that replaced Great-Society liberalism, helped Ronald Reagan bring down the Wall, and provided the intellectual rationale for the Bush administration's War on Terror. While others are blaming it for foreign policy failures and, more extremely, attacking it as a Jewish cabal, Murray argues that the West needs Neo-conservatism more than ever. In addition to explaining what Neo conservatism is and where it came from, he argues that this American-born response to the failed policies of the 1960s is the best approach to foreign affairs not only for the United States but also for Britain and the West as well. € 24,00
