Con la fórmula incendiaria "la propiedad es robo", Pierre-Joseph Proudhon (1809-1865) inauguró una tradición crítica radical que cuestiona los fundamentos de la propiedad privada y propone una reorganizacion de las relaciones sociales basada en la reciprocidad, el mutualismo y la federacion. Este volumen a cargo de Alejandro Sanchez Berrocal reune textos fundamentales que recorren la evolucion del pensamiento proudhoniano: desde la demolicion de las teorias que justifican la propiedad hasta la construccion de una teoria positiva de la justicia fundada en el intercambio equivalente, la gratuidad del credito y la capacidad politica colectiva. Un sistema filosofico riguroso que anticipa debates contemporaneos sobre dependencia economica, precarizacion y crisis de las mediaciones.

The hysteria provided a handbook for similar trials to occur around the world, most famously just a few decades later in Salem.

A fascinating inquiry into why beauty matters and how it has played an evolutionary role in our understanding of the world.From a pioneering neuropsychologist and the winner of the Mind and Brain Prize.Why do we love beauty? And why is the world so full of it? From rainbows and mountain landscapes to piano sonatas and Cezanne paintings, much of what we find beautiful seems to serve no practical purpose, despite our instinctive attraction to it. In this path-breaking book Why Is the World So Beautiful?, psychologist Nicholas Humphrey explains that the benefits of being drawn to beauty are primarily cognitive: were training our minds.Inspired by a line from the poet Gerard Manley Hopkins, that all beauty may be called rhyme, the author argues that by actively searching for rhyming connections between things, we establish the mental models that guide our understanding of the world. These rhymes extend beyond sounds to shapes, colors, objects, and even abstract ideas. Just as we need food to nourish our bodies, we need rhymes to nourish our minds.Our attraction to rhymes and patterns culminates in a uniquely human form of aesthetic emotion, one that recognizes that all artistry must issue from an artist. This leads Humphrey to his boldest claim: when we encounter beauty in the natural world, we are responding as if to a hidden artistsor Creatorshand. The result is a daring and illuminating argument for why beauty moves usand why our hunger for it is as fundamental as our need for meaning itself.
