The term 'New world' carries multiple connotations. While it traditionally denotes newly discovered territories, such as the American continent, in this context, it signifies the profound and transformative shift that the world has undergone over the past three centuries. This shift, which finds its roots in the Enlightenment and modernity, began to manifest itself more prominently after the First World War. While this transformation is often equated with globalization, its origins can be traced back to the era of industrialization and the rise of nation-states, which set the stage for subsequent global shifts. Dilemma is a subject of logic, but it is also used in daily life. In daily use, it often evokes contradictory situations. It is expected to correspond to inextricable, knotted, cyclical situations. What I mean by the dilemmas of the new world is the social order and view of the universe that humanity has lived in since the age of curiosity, that is, from the middle of the 18th century to the present day, at least ten thousand years since the world transitioned to agricultural society, the fact that the understanding of morality and most importantly, the meaning it attributes to its existence have brought with them insurmountable problems despite the changes in direction. While this new era was a game changer on the one hand, on the other hand, the meaning that man attributed to himself in every new thing he discovered with the development of science and technology was shaken. Existentialism emerged as a result of this new state of thinking. While the new attribution of meaning isolated man on the one hand, on the other hand, nation-states consisting of human communities gathered around a common ideal were established. Individual freedoms and gathering around a common goal became in conflict at some points. While humanism, the most crucial emphasis of the Enlightenment, glorified human beings on the one hand, on the other hand, there were significant obstacles to free thought. On the other hand, while the religious sentiments to which human beings were attached to give meaning to their existence were shaken, new meanings could not be found to replace them. While observations and findings show that the earth is far beyond the centre of the universe, the discovery that man is descended from animals has deeply affected religious beliefs, at least by the world of science and people who believe in the guidance of science. For man, who had to somehow hold on to life, these new teachings could not offer him any. In this state, the world needed new motives and new beliefs. At this very stage, capitalism came to the rescue of humanity. The new system, which pushed man to become a commodity owner, did not give him time to question himself.

An Existential Approach to Interpersonal Trauma provides a new existential framework for understanding the experiences of interpersonal trauma building on reflections from Marc Boaz’s own personal history, clinical insight and research. The book suggests that psychology, psychotherapy and existentialism do not recognise the significance of the existential movements that occur in traumatic confrontations with reality. By considering what people find at the limits and boundaries of human experiencing, Boaz describes the ways in which they can disillusion and re-illusion themselves, and how this becomes incorporated into their modes of existing in the world and in relation to others. In incorporating the experience of trauma into the way people live – all the existential horror, terror and liberation contained within it – Boaz invites them to embrace an expansive ethic of (re)(dis)covery. This ethic recognises the ambiguity and spectrality of interpersonal trauma, and expands the horizons of our human relationships. The book provides an important basis for professionals wanting to work existentially with interpersonal trauma and for people wanting to deepen their understanding of the trauma they have experienced.

Existentialist Criminology captures an emerging interest in the value of existentialist thought and concepts for criminological work on crime, deviance, crime control, and criminal justice. This emerging interest chimes with recent social and cultural developments - as well as shifts in their theoretical consideration - that are oriented around contingency and unpredictability. But whilst these conditions have largely been described and analysed through the lens of complexity theory, post-structuralist theory and postmodernism, there exploration by critical criminologists in existentialist terms offers a richer and more productive approach to the social and cultural dimensions of crime, deviance, crime control and, more broadly, of regulation and governance. Covering a range of topics that lend themselves quite naturally to existentialist analysis - crime and deviance as becoming and will, the existential openness of symbolic exchange, the internal conversations that take place within criminal justice practices, and the contingent and finite character of resistance - the contributions to this volume set out to explore a largely untapped reservoir of critical potential.

For readers engaged in intellectual struggle, ethical thinking, and trying to figure out how to live a purposeful, fulfilling life, here is a critical and accessible approach to ethics. Moral dilemmas challenge us to think through sticky situations and lead us to look for moral grounding. Following Cicero and other ancient philosophers, the author views ethics in terms of the question of who and what sort of person one ought to be, without relying on religion or any other prescriptions.

This book on Alain Badiou’s philosophy begins with a central theme: the attempt to trace how Badiou has replaced the tradition of critical theory and negation with an affirmative support of his four generic procedures (art, science, love, and art) as inseparable from his revitalization of both the subject and the concept of truth. By defining four procedures as conditions of philosophy, Badiou makes the attempt to establish each as inter-related and systematically necessary to make a new proposal for thought. The fidelity to Badiou’s project for the 21st century, however, requires a fundamental examination: are his four truths complicated by an inescapable dilemma? And if so, can the four truths be retained, as a whole, or does the individual reader have to make a decision that will alter Badiou’s project and conclusions? By presenting the dilemmas of his thought, the scholarly reader will be in a position to then pursue the necessary study to come to their own conclusions and, by doing so, become sufficiently free to resist the many coercions of social and political life in liberal democracies today.
