Sinopsis

In "The Greatest Works of Jean-Jacques Rousseau," the esteemed philosopher presents a profound examination of human nature, society, and the intricate relationship between the two. This carefully curated anthology illustrates Rousseau's literary style, which seamlessly blends lyrical prose with incisive philosophical inquiry. From the confessional introspection of "Confessions" to the radical political discourse found in "The Social Contract," Rousseau emphasizes themes of authenticity, freedom, and the corrupting influence of civilization, situating his works within the broader Enlightenment context that challenged established norms and questioned authority. Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) was a pivotal figure of the Enlightenment, profoundly influencing modern thought with his views on education, political philosophy, and the human experience. His tumultuous life—marked by personal strife, exile, and an unwavering commitment to his ideals—fueled his reflections on social inequality and the moral dilemmas of existence. Rousseau's passionate writings emerged from a desire to reconcile the contradictions of human society with the inherent goodness he believed still resided within individuals. This anthology is essential reading for anyone interested in the foundations of modern political thought, the evolution of individualism, and the enduring questions of ethical living. Rousseau's insights remain strikingly relevant, inviting readers to ponder their own relationship to society and the nature of human fulfillment.

    Europe without Borders - A History

    Europe is a place of free movement among nations—or is it? The Schengen area, established in 1985 and today encompassing twenty-nine European countries, allows people, goods, and capital to cross borders without restraint. Schengen transformed European life, advancing both a democratic project of transnational citizenship and a neoliberal project of international free trade. But the right of free movement always excluded non-Europeans, especially migrants of color from former colonies of the Schengen states. In Europe without Borders, Isaac Stanley-Becker explores the contested creation of free movement in Schengen. 
     
     
     
    Schengen laid the groundwork for the making of a single market and the founding of the European Union. Yet its emergence is one of the great untold stories of modern European history, one hidden in archives long embargoed. Stanley-Becker is among the first to have access to records of the treatymaking and Europe without Borders offers a pathbreaking account of Schengen's creation. Stanley-Becker argues that Schengen gave a humanist cast to a market paradigm; but even in pairing the border crossing of human beings with the principles of free-market exchange, this vision of free movement was hedged by alarm about foreign migrants. Meanwhile, these migrants—the sans-papiers—saw in the promise of a borderless Europe only a neocolonial enterprise.
