Hans L.M. Dassen A new philosophy of man & humanism

basic principles

In the 21st century we need a new philosophy as opposed to the old philosophy: a philosophy of man or philosophical anthropology. The importance of a new philosophy of man is that it addresses people all over the world, thus helping us to overcome our differences. And if we look a bit further into the world of the 21st century, we see that the most pressing project will be the search for meaning in the lives of human beings in a globalised world. Following the complete existential deconstruction...

stories of people who were willing to bear the consequences when theit perception of reality changed

What is the real story? Many people no longer recognize themselves in what is being reported by governments and media, or doubt whether they are being told the whole truth. And what happened to dialogue? Why has widespread censorship by mainstream media and social media become commonplace? It seems as if only one truth is allowed, namely the government’s. In that case, do we still live in a democracy? This book has been written for and by people who do not want to look away, but who dare...

Maurits v. Falkenreck Dutch decay

an entrepreneurial answer to the decline of the Dutch welfare state

In this book, Maurits v. Falkenreck describes the decay of the Dutch welfare state, and also presents his innovative projects to counter this decay. During his years as an innovator and entrepreneur, he discovered the failing innovation system and culture in which he was operating. This resulted in a sharp and refined analysis of what he calls 'The Political Ecosystem'.

Janice Atkinson What woman want, versus The gender, transgender and cultural wars of the West

Written by UK MEP Janice Atkinson, she gives an excoriating analysis of the politicians who pass damaging legislation that ordinary people have not sanctioned, were never in party manifestos or even discussed, the latter mainly because they have made discussions on certain subjects a hate crime. Western governments, the European Union, the United Nations, the World Health Organisation and those that gather at DAVOS - the liberal left elite - are making decisions over the voters' heads, that no one...
