        El diálogo (im)posible entre Pierre Hadot y Michel Foucault

        by Luis Roca Jusmet

        Pierre Hadot and Michel Foucault, two of the most important representatives of contemporary Philosophy of the second half of the 20th century, are cult authors. But, although they share to belong to the same country and the same generation, they have diametrically opposite life and philosophical trajectories. It will be in the early eighties when Foucault, interested in the Alexandrian and Roman schools of the beginning of our era, will begin to treat Hadot's works on the subject. From this meeting, the book deepens into philosophy understood as the art of life and reflects on the most urgent ethical and political problems of the moment in which we live.  * * * Pierre Hadot y Michel Foucault, dos de los más importantes representantes de la filosofía contemporánea de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, son autores de culto. Pero, aunque comparten la pertenencia a un mismo país y a una misma generación, tienen trayectorias vitales y filosóficas diametralmente opuestas. Será a principios de los años ochenta cuando Foucault, interesado por las escuelas alejandrinas y romanas de principios de nuestra era, comenzará a tratar los trabajos de Hadot sobre el tema. A partir de este encuentro, el libro profundiza sobre la filosofía entendida como arte de vida y reflexiona sobre los problemas éticos y políticos más urgentes del momento en el que vivimos.

        The Age of Unproductive Capital

        New Architectures of Power

        by Author(s): Ladislau Dowbor

        This book offers a very direct and readable analysis of the main challenges facing our societies today, such as reducing inequality, protecting the planet, and in particular mobilizing our financial resources which linger in tax havens and feed speculation, instead of funding the sustainable development we need. It precisely considers the most important factors, including corporate governance, financialization, capturing political power, and the limits to adequate national economic policies in a world dominated by global finance. The book’s presentation of how sensible and productive policies are dismantled will be highly interesting for the international community, whether in the academic, corporate or government spheres.
