Twenty years ago Ulrich Beck published Risk Society, a book that called our attention to the dangers of environmental catastrophes and changed the way we think about contemporary societies. During the last two decades, the dangers highlighted by Beck have taken on new forms and assumed ever greater significance. Terrorism has shifted to a global arena, financial crises have produced worldwide consequences that are difficult to control and politicians have been forced to accept that climate change is not idle speculation. In short, we have come to see that today we live in a world at risk. A new feature of our world risk society is that risk is produced for political gain. This political use of risk means that fear creeps into modern life. A need for security encroaches on our liberty and our view of equality. However, Beck is anything but an alarmist and believes that the anticipation of catastrophe can fundamentally change global politics. We have the opportunity today to reconfigure power in terms of what Beck calls a 'cosmopolitan material politics’. World at Risk is a timely and far-reaching analysis of the structural dynamics of the modern world, the global nature of risk and the future of global politics by one of the most original and exciting social thinkers writing today.

The narrative of risk is a narrative of irony. This narrative deals with involuntary satire, optimistic futility; it is a situation in which the highly developed institutions of modern society -science, the state, business and the military- attempt to anticipate what cannot be anticipated. Socrates has left us to make sense of the puzzling sentence, "I only know that I know nothing". The fatal irony into which the scientific-technical society plunges us is, as a consequence of its perfection, much more radical: We don't know what it is we do not know, but from this dangers arise, which threaten mankind! The perfect example here is provided by the debate about climate change. In 1974, about 45 years after the discovery of the cooling agent CFC, of all things, the chemists Rowland and Molina put forward the hypothesis that CFCs destroy the ozone layer of the stratosphere and, as a result, a greater amount of ultraviolet radiation would reach the earth. The chain of unforeseen secondary effects would lead to climate changes, which threaten mankind's basis of existence. When coolants were invented, no one could know or even suspect that they would make such a major contribution to global warming.

Come si struttura l’attuale Unione europea? Quali sono le sue caratteristiche e come deve modificarle se vuole compiere davvero un salto di qualità per portare a compimento il disegno originario di una terra che sia culla di nazioni diverse ma vicine, per diventare una Europa unita e rappresentativa degli Stati e dei cittadini, in una parola, Federale? L’Europa di oggi è una grande porta con tante serrature, ma per trovare l’Europa del futuro e guardare oltre bisogna aprirle tutte e di tutte trovare le chiavi. Ecco il perché di questo libro che fotografa alcuni dei principali aspetti che caratterizzano la nostra Europa attuale, ognuno dei quali è una serratura da aprire e quelle che proponiamo sono per noi le chiavi giuste. Le chiavi di una Federazione europea. How is the European Union structured? What are its features and how should it change to take that qualitative step and achieve the original idea of a land that is the cradle of different, but close nations, and turn itself into a united Europe which represents the States but also the citizens. In one word, a Federation? Today’s Europe is a great door with many locks; to discover the Europe of the future and look ahead of us, we need to find all the keys and open all these doors. This is why we wrote this book, which takes a picture of some of the main features of today’s Europe, each one of which is a lock that needs to be opened, and for which we try to suggest the right keys. The keys of our European federation.

This treatise investigates the emergence of the early modern law of nations, focusing on Alberico Gentili’s contribution to the same. A religious refugee and Regius Professor at the University of Oxford, Alberico Gentili (1552–1608) lived in difficult times of religious wars and political persecution. He discussed issues that were topical in his lifetime and remain so today, including the clash of civilizations, the conduct of war, and the maintenance of peace. His idealism and political pragmatism constitute the principal reasons for the continued interest in his work. Gentili’s work is important for historical record, but also for better analysing and critically assessing the origins of international law and its current developments, as well as for elaborating its future trajectories.

"More than any other canonical English writer, Geoffrey Chaucer lived and worked at the centre of political life--yet his poems are anything but conventional. Edgy, complicated, and often dark, they reflect a conflicted world, and their astonishing diversity and innovative language earned Chaucer renown as the father of English literature. Marion Turner, however, reveals him as a great European writer and thinker. To understand his accomplishment, she reconstructs in unprecedented detail the cosmopolitan world of Chaucer's adventurous life, focusing on the places and spaces that fired his imagination. Uncovering important new information about Chaucer's travels, private life, and the early circulation of his writings, this innovative biography documents a series of vivid episodes, moving from the commercial wharves of London to the frescoed chapels of Florence and the kingdom of Navarre, where Christians, Muslims, and Jews lived side by side. The narrative recounts Chaucer's experiences as a prisoner of war in France, as a father visiting his daughter's nunnery, as a member of a chaotic Parliament, and as a diplomat in Milan, where he encountered the writings of Dante and Boccaccio. At the same time, the book offers a comprehensive exploration of Chaucer's writings, taking the reader to the Troy of Troilus and Criseyde, the gardens of the dream visions, and the peripheries and thresholds of The Canterbury Tales. By exploring the places Chaucer visited, the buildings he inhabited, the books he read, and the art and objects he saw, this landmark biography tells the extraordinary story of how a wine merchant's son became the poet of The Canterbury Tales." -- Publisher's description.
