Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Why do entire societies obey unjust power-and how can a single individual break that cycle In Discourse on Voluntary Servitude, Étienne de La Boétie delivers a startling answer that feels as relevant today as it was in the sixteenth century. With remarkable clarity, he exposes the hidden foundations of tyranny, showing that oppressive regimes endure not merely through force, but through habit, fear, and voluntary submission. Readers will learn to recognize the subtle psychological and cultural mechanisms that sustain domination and to understand how freedom is often surrendered quietly, long before it is taken by violence.In Civil Disobedience, Henry David Thoreau brings this insight into the realm of moral action. Written in response to slavery, unjust laws, and an immoral war, this classic essay argues that legality is not the same as justice. Thoreau teaches that individuals have a moral duty to refuse cooperation with injustice, even when it is sanctioned by the state. Through this work, readers will grasp the ethical foundations of civil disobedience and discover why principled noncompliance has inspired figures such as Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., and countless movements for peaceful resistance.Together, these two timeless works form one of the most powerful guides to freedom, political responsibility, and moral courage ever written. La Boétie explains why servitude persists; Thoreau shows how it can be overcome. This volume equips readers with intellectual tools to understand modern power, resist injustice without violence, and reclaim personal conscience in an age of conformity. If you seek a deeper understanding of liberty, authority, and the courage to say no, this book is essential reading. Start now and discover why true freedom always begins with the refusal to obey what is unjust.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - "Human history began with an act of disobedience, and it is not unlikely that it will be terminated by an act of obedience."from On DisobedienceOne of the great psychological and social philosophers of the twentieth century, Erich Fromm expounded on the importance of disobedience and the authentic voice of the individual in modern culture. As relevant now as when it was first published,On Disobedienceis a collection of provocative essays, including the title entry, which suggests the very act of dissentthe choice to refuse to conform, to speak 'no' to those in poweris essential to a humane society, both to ensure humankind's preservation and to allow for one person to reclaim a genuine sense of self.InOn Disobedience,Fromm writes that the authoritarian dictatorships of the 20th century produced an "organization man" to follow directives blindly, no matter how abhorrent. At the same time, a kind of conformity has arisen in western democracies, only brought about by more subtle means of massive consumerism. In democracies, where the power to implement irreversible destruction rests in the hands of the few, the individual also needs to retain his ability to dissent and to speak "no" to those in power.In the face of these conformist pressures in whichever form they take, modern man must seek an authentic expression in order to retain his deepest sense of self. Fromm sees both capitalism and totalitarian communism moving toward a life-denying industrial bureaucracy, and berates the one system for ignoring, the other for betraying, the ideals of a true humanistic socialism in which people take precedence over things, life over property, and work over capital.Fromm maintains the necessity of the freedom to dissent. Of this form of disobedience, he writes, "it is not primarily an attitude directed against something, but for something: for man's capacity to see, to say what he sees, and to refuse to say what he does not see. To do so he does not need to be aggressive or rebellious; he needs to have his eyes open, to be fully awake."In times of crisis, the great works of philosophy help us make sense of the world. This book is part of the Harper Perennial Resistance Library, a special five-book series highlighting short classic works of independent thought that illuminate the nature of truth, humanity's dangerous attraction to authoritarianism, the influence of media and mass communication, and the philosophy of resistanceall critical in understanding today's politically charged world.…
