  Phenomenology - Philosophy and...

  Phenomenology is a branch of philosophy that seeks to explore and describe the structures of experience as they present themselves to consciousness. Rooted in the Greek words phainomenon (meaning "that which appears") and logos (meaning "study" or "discourse"), phenomenology is concerned with the direct investigation and description of phenomena as consciously experienced, without recourse to theories about their causal explanation or objective reality. It aims to understand the essence of experiences, focusing on how things are perceived, rather than on external facts or empirical data. 
  Edmund Husserl, often regarded as the father of phenomenology, established the discipline in the early 20th century. His groundbreaking work sought to return philosophy to the "things themselves," emphasizing the need to examine experiences without preconceived notions or biases. Husserl introduced the concept of intentionality, the idea that consciousness is always directed toward something—it is always consciousness of something. This fundamental notion shifted the focus from the contents of the mind to the ways in which objects are experienced, highlighting the inseparable relationship between the subject and the object in acts of consciousness. 
  Phenomenology differs from other philosophical approaches in that it does not seek to explain experiences through causal or scientific means. Instead, it adopts a descriptive method, aiming to reveal the underlying structures that make experience possible. Through techniques such as epoché (the suspension of judgment about the external world) and phenomenological reduction (focusing solely on the contents of consciousness), phenomenologists attempt to uncover the pure essence of experiences, free from external assumptions.

   While Research Methods in Psychology is fairly traditional— making it easy for you to use with your existing courses — it also emphasizes a fundamental idea that is often lost on undergraduates: research methods are not a peripheral concern in our discipline; they are central. The overarching goal of this textbook is to present the basics of psychological research methods — focusing on the concepts and skills that are most widely shared within the discipline — emphasizing both their centrality to our field and their contribution to our understanding of human behavior. The book will include several features that will help accomplish this overarching goal.

  Leibniz’s Monads - Because...

  Sophia Blackwell

  Ever wondered what reality is made of? If you're thinking atoms, molecules, or maybe regret and caffeine, think again. According to Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz—17th-century genius, calculus co-inventor, and metaphysical madlad—the universe is made of tiny, windowless soul-particles called monads. They don’t touch, don’t talk, and yet still manage to reflect the entire cosmos like cosmic disco balls of divine insight. 
  In Leibniz’s Monads: Because Particles with Feelings Totally Make Sense, Sophia Blackwell (author of Kant You Not) returns with another brutally honest, laugh-out-loud, actually-informative tour through one of philosophy’s weirdest, most ambitious systems. From the problem of evil to quantum physics, ecology to ethics, this book unpacks Leibniz’s windowless wonders and shows how his soul-marbles still haunt modern science, spirituality, and your existential crisis at 2am. 
  Perfect for students, armchair philosophers, or anyone who wants to understand metaphysics without crying in German. 
  Inside, you’ll learn: 
  What monads are (and why they’re basically metaphysical Tamagotchis) 
  Why your soul is pre-synced with the universe like a divine group project 
  How this is somehow the best possible world (yes, even with all of… this) 
  What quantum physics, computer science, and modern consciousness studies owe to a guy who never left Leipzig 
  And why Leibniz remains philosophy’s most lovable, logic-obsessed optimist 
  If you like philosophy that doesn’t take itself too seriously—but still takes ideas seriously—this book is for you. 
  Warning: May cause sudden belief in soul-particles. Or at least very polite existential confusion.

  Eternal capitalist trickery

  The concentration of power and wealth in the hands of a small predatory class, repeated crises, the inability of politicians to influence the course of events, worsening inequalities and the end of growth are the hallmarks of today's capitalism.  Since the fall of communism, capitalism has had no competitors. Will it die one day? Not in the short term: the system is stronger than governments, its worst scoundrels enjoy widespread impunity, and while economists have little or no understanding of how it works, no clear alternative is emerging. Above all, no one seems to be seriously considering a fundamental reform of modern financial capitalism. Curiously, a century earlier, this same situation had been analyzed by Nikolai Dimitrievich Kondratieff, a famous economist and committed player in the Russian Revolution of 1917. Kondratieff was executed by Stalin in 1938 for having scientifically demonstrated the eternity of capitalism. Would he have the same opinion about capitalism today?

  State looters Again and again

  On September 15, 2017, in front of millions of television viewers, Emmanuel Macron, with François Bayrou, his Keeper of the Seals at the time, delivered his first lie: “It is now impossible to be elected when you have a B2 criminal record”. Nothing could be further from the truth: in 2025, it is still possible to stand for election and be elected after having been convicted by the courts, whereas there are 396 jobs requiring a clean criminal record. Ten years after the best-seller Pilleurs d'État (State Looters), which sold 120,000 copies, Philippe Pascot takes stock of the progress and setbacks in French politics, listing all the legal abuses still available to the political class: exorbitant salaries and associated expenses, tax exemptions, multiple pensions, fictitious employment, exceptional justice, show trials, bogus declarations of interest and activities, and so many other little arrangements between friends... For Philippe Pascot, the findings are indisputable: “Behind a declared desire for transparency and moralization in the political sphere, our elected representatives continue to nurture their own interests through laws that are less and less comprehensible, in order to escape criminal prosecution and drape themselves in a circumstantial innocence. ”
