Social Conflict

Imagine ser capaz de aliviar a tensão e promover acordos mesmo nas situações mais difíceis - apenas mudando a maneira de falar. Durante décadas, Marshall Rosenberg fez exatamente isso, resolvendo pacificamente conflitos em famílias, escolas, empresas e governos, em mais de 30 países. Neste audiolivro, Marshall apresenta seu sistema, a Comunicação Não Violenta, para nos ajudar a falar as verdades mais profundas, abordar nossas necessidades e emoções não reconhecidas, e honrar essas mesmas preocupações quando nos relacionamos com os outros.

Ergebnisloses Gerede, sprunghafte Auseinandersetzungen, ständiges Unterbrechen, langatmige Monologe der Immergleichen - das ist Alltag in vielen Meetings. Die Kompetenten bleiben dabei oft auf der Strecke.

Auch wenn das erst mal unhöflich erscheint. Peter Modler präsentiert in seinem neuen Buch die "Kampfkunst" einer durchsetzungsstarken Gesprächsführung. Wer sie beherrscht, schärft Ideen, schont Nerven - und schützt die Demokratie.

Do countries fight wars for oil? Given the resource's exceptional military and economic importance, most people assume that states will do anything to obtain it. Challenging this conventional wisdom, The Oil Wars Myth reveals that countries do not launch major conflicts to acquire petroleum resources. Emily Meierding argues that the costs of foreign invasion, territorial occupation, international retaliation, and damage to oil company relations deter even the most powerful countries from initiating "classic oil wars".

In The Militia and the Right to Arms, or, How the Second Amendment Fell Silent, Uviller and Merkel show how postratification history has sapped the Second Amendment of its meaning. Starting with a detailed examination of the political principles of the founders, the authors build the case that the amendment's second clause (declaring the right to bear arms) depends entirely on the premise set out in the amendment's first clause (stating that a well-regulated militia is necessary to the security of a free state).

History tends to cast the early years of America in a glow of camaraderie when there were, in fact, many conflicts between the Founding Fathers - none more important than the one between George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. Their disagreement centered on the highest, most original public office created by the Constitutional Convention: the presidency. It also involved the nation's foreign policy, the role of merchants and farmers in a republic, and the durability of the union.

Even as they discuss the conflict, their narratives also reflect realities beyond violence, making this an essential cultural archive.

Why We Hate tackles a pressing issue of both longstanding interest and fresh relevance: why a social species like Homo sapiens should nevertheless be so hateful to itself. We go to war and are prejudiced against our fellow human beings. We discriminate on the basis of nationality, class, race, sexual orientation, religion, and gender. Why are humans at once so social and so hateful to each other? In this book, Michael Ruse looks at scientific understandings of human hatred, particularly Darwinian evolutionary theory.

In the three decades since the end of the Cold War, global leaders have been integrating the world's economy, transport and communications, breaking down borders in the hope that it would make war impossible. In doing so, they have unwittingly created a formidable arsenal of weapons for new kinds of conflict and the motivation to keep fighting. Rising tensions in global politics are not a bump in the road - they are part of the paving. Troublingly, we are now seeing rising conflict at every level, from individuals on social media all the way up to stand-offs between nation states.

Terrorism and radicalization came to the forefront of news and politics in the US after the unforgettable attacks of September 11th, 2001. When George W. Bush famously asked "Why do they hate us?," the President echoed the confusion, anger and fear felt by millions of Americans, while also creating a politicized discourse that has come to characterize and obscure discussions of both phenomena in the media.
