Not Going Back


Despite intense political debate, attitudes on abortion were remarkably stable for decades. However, after the 2022 Dobbs decision, Americans' opinions began to change. Not Going Back explores the shifts in public opinion on this hot-button issue from the landmark passing of Roe v. Wade in 1973 through the 2024 election and into 2025. The authors ask, "What role do Americans want their government to play in protecting, regulating, or restricting abortion access?" and, "How will changing attitudes on abortion reshape American politics?" They offer cohesive, theoretically grounded explanations for both the continuity and the change in Americans' attitudes on this contentious topic. Using national data, they take a deep dive into the personal experiences and social forces behind these changes. Not Going Back ends with an examination of the consequences of these changes for election outcomes. While there has been a striking reversal in the prioritization of abortion as an issue among Democrats and Republicans, the full impact of this shift in thinking will be influenced by future policies, court decisions, and party reactions.

Slzy věcí


Jak žít soucitně v době násilí, nespravedlnosti a zklamání? Co dělat s vlastním hněvem tváří v tvář světu, který se zdá být hluboce nespravedlivý? V jedné ze svých nejosobnějších knih se Richard Rohr obrací k textům starozákonních proroků a ukazuje, že právě v jejich často opomíjených knihách můžeme najít důležitou inspiraci pro dnešní dobu. Prorocké spisy zachycují celý oblouk lidského zrání: od prvotního hněvu a obviňování přes hluboký smutek nad utrpením světa až k soucitu a porozumění. Proroci svými kritickými pohledy na společnost a instituce ukazují cestu, kterou Rohr nazývá „posvátnou kritikou“ – způsobem, jak čelit zlu a nespravedlnosti, aniž bychom ztratili vědomí propojenosti všeho živého a víru v univerzální Boží lásku. Tento vnitřní pohyb od hněvu k soucitu zároveň připravuje půdu pro Ježíšovo poselství, které podle Rohra následuje stejný vzorec. Kniha Slzy věcí, napsaná v autorově typicky srozumitelném a lidsky blízkém stylu, čerpá ze století biblického bádání a znovu oživuje moudrost starověkých textů. Nabízí inspirativní cestu pro každého, kdo hledá soucitnější způsob, jak žít uprostřed zraněného světa.

Emočně zdravé učednictví


Je až neuvěřitelné, že tato kniha je zřejmě první na téma učednictví, která vychází v Česku v katolickém nakladatelství. Zatímco autor coby pastor početného multietnického sboru musel po letech řešit způsob učednictví, který mu byl předáván, a jak sám formoval druhé, čtenář si záhy uvědomí znepokojivou skutečnost, že v našich kruzích jde většinou o naprosto opomíjené téma. O to víc doporučujeme toto vzácně hluboké dílo pozornosti křesťanů v naší zemi, a to napříč církevními denominacemi.

Tracks in Chaos


When political action is imperative, we can be tempted to look to philosophy for guiding principles. This project, however, historically has been doomed to fail. Throughout Tracks in Chaos, philosopher Raymond Geuss examines closely the consequences of this failure. In crisp and lucid prose, he ranges over topics that include political realism, reflection in politics, universalism, solidarity, our utopian aspirations, and the role of fear in motivating censorship. Geuss ultimately paints a picture that is both rich and uncompromising, as is his conclusion: that we must learn to accept incompleteness, contingency and pluralism in our search for orientation. This is an incisive and elegant new collection of essays by one of our finest moral and political philosophers.

Vy ste svetlo sveta


Pán nazval svojich učeníkov soľou zeme, lebo oni nebeskou múdrosťou osviežili ľudské srdcia omámené diablom. Teraz ich nazýva aj svetlom sveta, lebo osvietení ním, pravým a večným svetlom, stali sa aj oni svetlom v temnotách. Veď cez nich akoby cez dajaké žiarivé lúče vylieva na celý svet svetlo svojej pravdy, lebo zahnali zo sŕdc ľudí temnoty bludu tým, že im ukázali svetlo pravdy. Cez nich sme boli aj my osvietení a z tmy sme sa stali svetlom, ako hovorí Apoštol: ,,Kedysi ste boli tmou, ale teraz ste svetlom v Pánovi. Žite ako deti svetla!" (Ef 5,8) A keď máme to šťastie, že sme boli vyslobodení z tmy bludu, musíme žiť stále vo svetle ako deti svetla. Ak to nebudeme robiť, hrozí, že svojou nevernosťou ako nejakým závojom zakryjeme a zatienime také potrebné a užitočné svetlo pre vlastnú i cudziu škodu. A preto aj ten, čo dostal talent, aby ním získal nebeskú odmenu, a on ho radšej ukryl, ako by ho mal dať na stôl peňazomencom, dostal zaslúžený trest, ako vieme a čítame (porov. Mt 25,26-27). To znamená, že v nás musí stále svietiť tá žiariaca lampa, čo bola zažatá pre našu spásu. Máme totiž lampu nebeského prikázania a duchovnej milosti, o ktorej Dávid povedal: ,,Tvoje prikázanie je svetlo pre moje nohy a pochodeň na mojich chod-níkoch." (Ž 119,105) Aj Šalamún o nej hovorí: ,,Lebo lampou je prikázanie zákona." (Prís 6,23) My túto lampu zákona a viery nesmieme ukrývať, ale pre spásu mnohých ju treba v Cirkvi stále stavať ako na svietnik, aby sme mali zo svetla tejto pravdy aj my úžitok a aby osvietilo všetkých veriacich. Z Traktátov sv. Chromácia na Matúšovo evanjelium

The Illegals


In 2010, two decades after the Cold War had ended, ten Russian spies were arrested in America, having hidden their true identities from their friends, neighbours and even their children. They were part of a spy programme that had begun nearly a century earlier. These deep-cover missions - some remarkable feats of espionage, others high-profile failures - could last for decades. Drawing on hundreds of hours of interviews, and newly-discovered archival material, The Illegals is a page-turning tour de force, that shines new light on the long arc of the Soviet experiment and its messy aftermath - and on how that hidden history shaped Russia and the West.

Whose Sovereignty?


In this carefully argued case for a federal Europe, Céline Spector proposes that national sovereignty has become increasingly untenable as mechanisms perpetuating fiscal, social and environmental inequities transcend borders. Indeed, in the face of Russian aggression and America’s apparent retreat from its protective role, strengthening European integration has become essential and federalization appears increasingly necessary. Although the concept of the sovereign people has become symbolic within nation-states, Spector show that it has become devoid of substantive political force. Rather than lamenting the decline of direct democracy, she advocates for a democratized European Union that could redefine popular sovereignty and protect human rights. The transformation of state sovereignty need not signal democracy’s end or the subordination of politics to law. Instead, it could facilitate new forms of political community at the European level and enable a reconceptualization of popular sovereignty beyond the nation-state.

Lurking within the pages lay suspicions of his friend and former colleague, with characters and plots echoing Philby's life. Was Philby the real Third Man?

The Emperor Incognito


The first complete account of Emperor Joseph II’s undercover journey through his kingdom It is the middle of the eighteenth century, and across Europe signs of crisis are everywhere. Travelling incognito, and without the customary pomp and entourage, the young emperor Joseph II journeys through the Holy Roman Empire and his Habsburg lands to see with his own eyes how his subjects live, suffer, and starve. Moving between the world of kings and queens and that of ordinary people in their hospitals and factories, he is persuaded by Enlightenment ideas of progress and liberty. Visiting his sister, Marie Antoinette in Versailles, he senses the French Revolution looming and realises that reform is imperative if he is to build a modern state. The Emperor Incognito tells the story of an extraordinary man in an age of great upheaval, who spent a quarter of his twenty-five-year reign on the road. The result of his radical ambition and titanic efforts, despite his own admission (as inscribed on his tombstone) that he ‘failed in everything he undertook’, was the foundation of a more modern Austrian monarchy, in a Europe in which progress would no longer be determined solely by its rulers.
