The set "Economics and Power. Main. Ext. 1 "contains books:" New serfs. Neo-feudalism and modern slavery "ruling elites are not able to independently form anything constructive, they cannot build and create really valuable, but they know how and love to take away and divide the others created. It is for this that the current rulers need new serfs, who will meekly obey and serve the new aristocracy, and consider it for the highest happiness. The post -industrial society with its high technological level of development gave elites qualitatively new opportunities to build neo -feudalism, for this beautiful, but deceptive formulations like the “fourth industrial revolution” or the “new norm”, with which they promise to lead the population to a bright future. However, if you remove this beautiful wrapper, then reality is much more gloomy in its consequences than traditional serfdom, which now looks like a genuine revelry of freedom. Can we resist this? "Post -capitalism and the birth of personal exploration" recently the idea of a post -capitalist society is becoming more and more relevant. Against the background of the systemic crisis of capitalism and many contradictions that the Covid-19 pandemic revealed, attempts are increasingly observed to propose an alternative future in which robots and artificial intelligence give an abundance of material wealth, each is provided with everything necessary, and people themselves are engaged in mainly free creative activities. All these utopian ideas are largely inspired by the classic Marxist views on communism as the most likely non -antagonistic form of a post -capitalist society. This book presents an attempt to look at the post -capitalist perspective under a radically different fragment of sight. Many facts and trends indicate that we are moving towards a new antagonistic social formation, and instead of relative public harmony, an elevation of a new class - personal exploration is observed. The book is addressed to political scientists, philosophers, economists, sociologists, historians, as well as all those interested in the prospects of social development. "Drug cocarbalism. Life in the era of anesthesia "What is common between the invention of anesthetics in the middle of the 19th century, the use of cocaine Nazis and the development of a prose? All of them are a product of the same logic that determines the new stage of modernity - the "era of anesthesia". Laurent de Sutter tells how our life is now characterized by the management of emotions with the help of drugs, starting from the daily use of sleeping pills and ending with potent drugs. Chemistry entered us so much that we can’t even understand how much it changed us
