Genesi del culto nel mondo moderno. Un miracolo nel segno "non per profitto": l'inesauribile tesoro delle organizzazioni non governative. Le vittime dei santoni sono tante! Emblematiche le scomparse (solitamente nel suicidio) di “eredi di buona famiglia” alla ricerca di risposte per un'esistenza migliore. Io capitai dal “numero uno” o quello che riuscì meglio a monetizzare le sue prediche spacciandosi per il “Gesù che torna”. Negli anni ’70 il sudcoreano Sun Myung Moon figurava nelle liste di Amnesty International come guida spirituale perseguitata. In verità questo è mai avvenuto in chiave persecutoria, ma come legittimo interesse investigativo delle autorità sudcoreane circa l’uso dei proventi delle raccolte fondi per finanziare imprese armigere ed erboristiche (ginseng e derivati) proteggendole con gli statuti ONG, che ne legalizzavano l’esistenza e il sussidio con questue di ogni tipo e definibili senza scrupoli per la truffaldina creatività in cui si denotavano. Myung non perse neppure un dollaro né subì un graffio in cagione di tali “persecuzioni”, che furono la sua artefatta sembianza per facilitare dazioni filantropiche tradendo la fiducia della gente, convinta di donare per bimbi africani. Questo sedicente messia e congrega, fondarono una ‘chiesa unificante’ nel 1 Maggio del 1954 poche settimane dopo la fondazione di Scientology nel 18 Febbraio del 1954 da Lafayette Ronald Hubbard. Entrambi costruirono finanze “liquide” e patrimoni stimati in miliardi di dollari, mentre asserivano di aiutare bisognosi senza specificare che i loro ‘poveri’ erano perlopiù agiati alla ricerca del ‘benessere interiore’, che loro asserivano di poter garantire.

The island of Sicily has for centuries been a meeting point where civilizations transformed one another and gave life to the cultural developments at the foundation of European modernity. The essays collected here explore Sicily as a place where these cultural interactions have produced conflict but also new material and intellectual exchange.

Dopo aver tratteggiato nel precedente volume FEDE LAICA il possibile percorso individuale verso una libera, profonda adesione al messaggio evangelico, il presente e lavoro si propone di riflettere sulla grande influenza che tale messaggio ha avuto, ha e potrà avere sulla storia del mondo e sui problemi di fondo dei nostri tempi. Ciò, privilegiando la chiarezza e la sintesi espositiva, rifuggendo dalla retorica devozionale e non sottacendo, ma evidenziandoli e affrontandoli, i dubbi e le contraddizioni incontrati in questo percorso, con ampi riferimenti alle visioni dei grandi pensatori e dei mistici di ogni tempo. Al pari del precedente, anche il presente lavoro è guidato dall’idea che la ricerca sul senso della vita e sull’influenza (con le luci e le ombre) che la religione cristiana ha avuto sulla storia dell’Occidente debba avvenire secondo un’ottica laica, che non vuol dire antireligiosa. Un’ottica cioè coerente con la realtà del mondo moderno e basata fin dove possibile sulla riflessione razionale.

Mikael Hörnqvist challenges us to rethink the overall meaning and importance of Machiavelli's political thinking. Machiavelli and Empire combines close textual analysis of The Prince and The Discourses with a broad historical approach, to establish the importance of empire-building and imperial strategy in Machiavelli's thought. The primary context of Machiavelli's work, Hörnqvist argues, is not the mirror-for-princes genre or medieval and Renaissance republicanism in general, but a tradition of Florentine imperialist republicanism dating back to the late thirteenth-century, based on the twin notions of liberty at home and empire abroad. Weaving together themes and topics drawn from contemporary Florentine political debate, Medicean ritual and Renaissance triumphalism, this study explores how Machiavelli in his chancery writings and theoretical works promoted the long standing aspirations of Florence to become a great and expanding empire, modelled on the example of the ancient Roman republic. This is a distinctive and important work.

A great deal of the world's history is the history of empires. Indeed it could be said that all history is colonial history, if one takes a broad enough definition and goes far enough back. And although the great historic imperial systems, the land-based Russian one as well as the seaborne empires of western European powers, have collapsed during the past half century, their legacies shape almost every aspect of life on a global scale. Meanwhile there is fierce argument, and much speculation, about what has replaced the old territorial empires in world politics. Do the United States and its allies, transnational companies, financial and media institutions, or more broadly the forces of 'globalization', constitute a new imperial system? Stephen Howe interprets the meaning of the idea of 'empire' through the ages, disentangling the multiple uses and abuses of the labels 'empire', 'colonialism', etc., and examines the aftermath of imperialism on the contemporary world. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

This ambitious work focuses on the world of Chinese thought during the two and a half centuries directly preceding and partly overlapping the time of Confucius. Ideas developed by Chunqiu statesmen and thinkers formed the intellectual milieu of Confucius and his disciples and contributed directly to the intellectual flowering of the Zhanguo (Warring States) era (453-221 B.C.E.), the formative period of the Chinese intellectual tradition. This study is the first attempt to systematically reconstruct major intellectual trends in pre-Confucian China. Foundations of Confucian Thought is based on an exploration of the Zuo zhuan, the largest pre-imperial historical text. Relying on meticulous textual and linguistic analysis, Yuri Pines argues that hundreds of the speeches of Chunqiu statesmen recorded in the Zuo zhuan were not invented by the compiler of the treatise but reproduced from earlier sources, thus making it an authentic reflection of the Chunqiu intellectual tradition. By tracing changes in ideas and concepts throughout the Chunqiu period, Pines reconstructs the dynamics of contemporary political and ethical discourse, distilling major intellectual impulses that Chunqiu thinkers bequeathed to their Zhanguo descendants.

For much of the twentieth century, Confucianism was condemned by Westerners and East Asians alike as antithetical to modernity. Internationally renowned philosophers, historians, and social scientists argue otherwise in Confucian Political Ethics. They show how classical Confucian theory--with its emphasis on family ties, self-improvement, education, and the social good--is highly relevant to the most pressing dilemmas confronting us today. Drawing upon in-depth, cross-cultural dialogues, the contributors delve into the relationship of Confucian political ethics to contemporary social issues, exploring Confucian perspectives on civil society, government, territorial boundaries and boundaries of the human body and body politic, and ethical pluralism. They examine how Confucianism, often dismissed as backwardly patriarchal, can in fact find common ground with a range of contemporary feminist values and need not hinder gender equality. And they show how Confucian theories about war and peace were formulated in a context not so different from today's international system, and how they can help us achieve a more peaceful global community. This thought-provoking volume affirms the enduring relevance of Confucian moral and political thinking, and will stimulate important debate among policymakers, researchers, and students of politics, philosophy, applied ethics, and East Asian studies. The contributors are Daniel A. Bell, Joseph Chan, Sin Yee Chan, Chenyang Li, Richard Madsen, Ni Lexiong, Peter Nosco, Michael Nylan, Henry Rosemont, Jr., and Lee H. Yearley.
