À propos de cet audio
A prominent public intellectual tackles one of the most crucial political ideas of our moment.
Since Hamas's attack on Israel last October 7, the term "settler colonialism" has become central to public debate in the United States. A concept new to most Americans, but already established and influential in academic circles, settler colonialism is shaping the way many people think about the history of the United States, Israel and Palestine, and a host of political issues.
This short book is the first to examine settler colonialism critically for a general audience. By critiquing the most important writers, texts, and ideas in the field, Adam Kirsch shows how the concept emerged in the context of North American and Australian history and how it is being applied to Israel. He examines the sources of its appeal, which, he argues, are spiritual as much as political; how it works to delegitimize nations; and why it has the potential to turn indignation at past injustices into a source of new injustices today. A compact and accessible introduction, rich with historical detail, the book will speak to listeners interested in the Middle East, American history, and today's most urgent cultural-political debates.

Society has never been more egalitarian—in theory. Prejudice is taboo, and diversity is strongly valued. At the same time, social and economic inequality have exploded. In We Have Never Been Woke, Musa al-Gharbi argues that these trends are closely related, each tied to the rise of a new elite—the symbolic capitalists.

Richard Evans, author of the acclaimed The Third Reich Trilogy and over two dozen other volumes on modern Europe, is our preeminent scholar of Nazi Germany. Having spent half a century searching for the truths behind one of the most horrifying episodes in human history, in Hitler’s People, he brings us back to the original site of the Nazi movement: namely, the lives of its most important members. Working in concentric circles out from Hitler and his closest allies, Evans forms a typological framework of Germany society under Nazi rule from the top down.

For much of history, societies have violently oppressed ethnic, religious, and sexual minorities. It is no surprise that many who passionately believe in social justice came to believe that members of marginalized groups need to take pride in their identity to resist injustice.

The quest for social justice is a powerful crusade of our time, with an appeal to many different people, for many different reasons. But those who use the same words do not always present the same meanings. Clarifying those meanings is the first step toward finding out what we agree on and disagree on. From there, it is largely a question of what the facts are. Social Justice Fallacies reveals how many things that are thought to be true simply cannot stand up to documented facts, which are often the opposite of what is widely believed.

Short, but perhaps too long, some interesting ideas
I suppose I agree with the arguments the author makes, however, it seems like a lot of time is spent arguing against ideas that are so easy to argue against, it shouldn't take so much time, as brief as the book is. It's sad humanity still makes intellectual arguments about how certain people are evil by virtue of what they were born into. You'd think by now we could have gotten past all this but we seem to be sinking deeper into it these days. Beyond all intellectualization of the subject, we are left with greedy and aggressive people that want to make everyone else do crazy stuff, though perhaps that's all of us, it's just most of us aren't given the opportunity to behave this way. Some of the ideas of Jewish justice were new to me and I found them interesting as a way of viewing the path forward. All in all, the book made me sad.
On a technical side, I found the audio recording of the book distorted and shrill. For this and a variety of other reasons, I would recommend reading the book rather than listening to it. I imagine it's a better read than a listen. The only reason I listened to it was because I got a special with audible so I could get it for a buck rather than paying 35 bucks for the hardcover.
