At some point in the 1980s we gave up on the future. Before then, we imagined wonderful days to come, free from disease, work and want, in television series like Star Trek or events such as the 1939 Futurama World Fair.

If it is true that we have to imagine the future before we build it, then this is deeply worrying.

In this fascinating account of the surprisingly violent fifth-century church, Philip Jenkins describes how political maneuvers by a handful of powerful characters shaped Christian doctrine. Were it not for these battles, today's church could be teaching something very different about the nature of Jesus, and the papacy as we know it would never have come into existence. Jesus Wars reveals the profound implications of what amounts to an accident of history: that one faction of Roman emperors and militia-wielding bishops defeated another.

Since 2007, there has been a pervasive decline in religious belief and most of the world's people now say that God is less important in their lives than they said he was in the quarter century before 2007. Many factors contributed to this dramatic shift, but as Inglehart shows, certain ones stand out. Utilizing a massive global database, Inglehart analyzes the conditions under which religiosity collapses, and explores its implications for the future. 

As the UK’s national narrative falters and trust in key political institutions is wavering what does the future hold? Is the UK set to become ‘Singapore on Thames?’ as some suggest? What might a future relationship with the EU look like? What would it take to rekindle a real enthusiasm for the European project, as opposed to the semi-detached relationship Britain has had with the EU?

Denise Dresser presenta una lectura urgente y necesaria: López Obradorsedujo a millones con su promesa de salvaguardar la democracia y ser un antídoto contra la regresión política y social de México. Hoy la distancia entre aquella esperanza y la realidad es insalvable. AMLO ha erosionado, con palabras y hechos, la institucionalidad deficitaria, reemplazándola con un ejercicio de gobierno centrado sólo en él, rodeado de verde olivo. Por improvisación, por prisa, y por mala administración, heredará bombas de tiempo a su sucesora.

America is in a cold civil war between people who see each other as threats to the country - but themselves as patriots. How can that be? They are patriots of two nations.

That's because America is actually two nations occupying the same territory.

When Steve Morris began weighing his own career transition, he went looking for answers. He reached out to former elite athletes who'd already faced the leap into life after sport, expecting stories of reinvention and hard-won wisdom. What he found instead were tales that, for some, ended in tragedy — and it left him more unsettled about his own looming Monday off than when he'd started.What Happens Next is the result of that search: an unflinching, deeply human series of conversations with athletes who've walked away from the spotlight and had to figure out who they are without it.
