Darin stellt Orwell fest, dass die zeitgenössische Literatur bis auf einzelne Lichtblicke wie Henry Miller faktisch ohne Bedeutung ist. In einer aufgeheizten gesellschaftlichen Atmosphäre, innerhalb derer national orientierte Politiker „ihren" jeweiligen Völkern eine jeweils großartige Zukunft versprechen und die autoritären Strukturen immer mehr Anhänger begeistern, sind die Voraussetzungen für das mögliche Ende der westlichen zivilisierten Welt natürlich optimal.

Story0
"Maelzel's Chess Player" (1836) is an essay by Edgar Allan Poe exposing a fraudulent automaton chess player called The Turk, which had become famous in Europe and the United States and toured widely. The fake automaton was invented by Wolfgang von Kempelen in 1769 and was brought to the U.S. in 1825 by Johann Nepomuk Mälzel after von Kempelen's death. In his essay, Poe asserts that a mechanical chess player would play perfectly, but Maelzel's "machine" occasionally errs, and is therefore suspect. Although it is the most famous essay on the Turk, many of Poe's hypotheses were incorrect.

El origen de este fascinante libro está en el hallazgo de una caja de madera oscura, un collage tridimensional hecho de retales de una vida en ocasiones incómoda, la del padre del autor, fallecido en su infancia, hombre tan intrépido y seductor como contradictorio. Y el relato resultante, la retahíla de fragmentos que lo conforman, no es sino otro ensamblaje destinado a salvar el abismo entre un hijo y la sombra siempre inasible del progenitor.

Geboren in der ehemaligen britischen Kolonie Indien verlief das Leben von George Orwell alles andere als geradlinig. Er besuchte Schulen in Indien und England, beherrschte mindestens zwei gebräuchliche Sprachen Indiens, arbeitete in diversen Gelegenheitsjobs, trieb sich als Landstreicher in England herum, studierte unter Aldous Huxley, verdiente sich als Polizist in Indien, nahm am spanischen Bürgerkrieg als Freiwilliger auf Seite der Republikaner teil und arbeitete Seite an Seite mit Ernest Hemingway als Kriegsberichterstatter.

El cambio tecnológico afecta a un valor fundamental de las sociedades democráticas: la capacidad de decidir. Cada vez más decisiones, cotidianas o políticas, son automatizadas y se delegan en sofisticados artefactos. A partir de la reflexión acerca del concepto de decisión democrática, Innerarity elabora, con rigor analítico, una filosofía política de la inteligencia artificial que se pregunta qué tipo de voluntad popular se está gestando, al tiempo que se aleja del determinismo tecnológico y de posiciones catastrofistas o apocalípticas.

Il est temps de réinventer le travail. On a répété à l'envi que le travail serait un refuge, un moyen pour les femmes de s'extirper de leur rôle assigné de mère et d'épouse, de gagner leur argent, leur liberté, de trouver leur place dans la société… De devenir, en somme, grâce à la sueur de leur front, les égales des hommes. Et si tout cela n'était qu'une grande illusion ? Le monde du travail n'est pas un espace neutre, un tremplin méritocratique ou égalitaire. C'est un monde construit par et pour les hommes, dont les règles du jeu garantissent le maintien de leurs privilèges.
