Story0
Freedom Without Blood is a rigorous and compassionate examination of one of the most uncomfortable contradictions in modern law: the protection of religious freedom when it collides with physical harm. Drawing on U.S. constitutional principles, Supreme Court cases, and international legal standards, Ivan Valle explores a simple but urgent question: Can any belief justify the creation of a victim? This book does not attack faith. It defends a boundary.

If François Rabelais were alive today, he would not be “problematic” — he would be impossible. His books would not be debated, contextualized, or gently criticized; they would be reported, flagged, algorithmically buried, and ceremoniously uninvited from public life. Rabelais laughed too loudly, ate too much, spoke too freely, and trusted the body more than moral panic. That alone would be unforgivable. Cancel culture, for all its modern vocabulary, is an old story.

Klickzahlen, Fitnesstracker, Bestsellerlisten, Politikerrankings: Unsere Gesellschaft ist besessen von Scores. Der Philosoph C. Thi Nguyen deckt auf, wie Scores zu einem der prägendsten Werkzeuge unserer Zeit geworden sind – und warum wir dringend ihre Wirkungsweise verstehen müssen. Nguyen demonstriert an lebensnahen Beispielen, dass diese scheinbar harmlosen Zahlen uns tatsächlich dazu verleiten, fremde Werte unhinterfragt zu übernehmen. Wenn aber in unserer Beziehung zu unserer Gesundheit, unseren Jobs oder Lieblingsbeschäftigungen nur noch Scores zählen, verarmt unser Leben.

Unsere bürgerliche Gesellschaft ist einem Zangenangriff auf die Normalität ausgesetzt – nämlich einmal durch die "Wokeness" der Kulturrevolutionäre und zum andern durch den Alarmismus der politisch-medialen Elite. Die Wokeness stellt das Verhältnis von normal und pathologisch auf den Kopf. Der Alarmismus stellt das Verhältnis von normal und extrem auf den Kopf. Das, was früher als Neurose betrachtet wurde, soll jetzt als selbstbestimmter Lebensentwurf anerkannt werden.

In 1890s America Thorstein Veblen attacked a careless acceptance of prevailing social structures, identifying ancient roots for ‘pecuniary culture’ and ‘conspicuous consumption’–realities that promoted materialism and squashed fulfilment. In The Theory of the Leisure Class the worthy Engineer, creating essential products for all, is pitted against the predatory Businessman, exempt from grubby industrial toil and focussed on useless profits.

Desde mediados del siglo XX, la esperanza de vida ha aumentado en occidente de veinte a treinta años, lo que equivale a toda una existencia en el siglo XVII. Así pues, al llegar a los cincuenta años, experimentamos una suerte de suspensión entre la madurez y la vejez, un intervalo en el que la brevedad de la vida realmente comienza, mientras nos planteamos las grandes cuestiones de nuestra condición.
