Neoliberal philosophy seeks to attract investment by demonstrating that it can produce optimal return. Further, philosophers in the neoliberal paradigm internalize and reproduce the values of the prevailing social order in their work, reorienting philosophical desire toward the production of attractive commodities. The aim of philosophy in the neoliberal university, Absher shows, has become the production of human capital and profitable knowledge. ![]() Free Download Miguel Villanueva Svensson, "The Rise of Acuteness in Balto-slavic " English | ISBN: 9004682678 | 2023 | 372 pages | PDF | 3 MB This book provides a new account of the rise of Balto-Slavic acuteness from an Indo-European perspective.

Colebrook, "The Recurrence of the End Times: Voegelin, Hegel, and the Stop-History Movements " English | ISBN: 1793651345 | 2022 | 202 pages | EPUB, PDF | 290 KB + 1053 KB The Recurrence of the End Times: Voegelin, Hegel, and the Stop-History Movements explores the deep connection between modern political ideologies and the secular eschatological hopes and dreams of a post-Christian society. Focusing primarily upon the thought of 20th century German émigré political scientist Eric Voegelin, the book argues that we cannot understand the globalized world in which we live unless we appreciate the lasting influence of the various "End of History" speculators-specifically, G.W.F Hegel, Alexandre Kojève, and Francis Fukuyama. Through a Voegelinian lens, he dissects the relationship between these three thinkers, also claiming that while Voegelin may have misunderstood Hegel, his critiques of the Hegelian approach to history offer fresh and important perspectives on the contemporary world. This makes a forceful argument that the idea of history as a teleological path, leading toward some goal-whether perfect harmony between nations, a technocratic utopia, a return to some romanticized idyllic "state of nature," or what Kojève and Fukuyama called the "universal and homogenous State"-has vast, and perverse, implications for the trajectory of American foreign and domestic policy.
