L'antispécisme — la lutte contre toute discrimination fondée sur l'appartenance à une espèce animale — est plus explicitement politique que le végétarisme ou le véganisme, qui sont essentiellement des modes de vie. Dès la fin du XIXe siècle, des communautés végétariennes et des groupes de pression ont lutté contre l'exploitation des animaux, mais c'est en Grande-Bretagne, au milieu du XXe siècle, qu'une autre forme de militantisme...

Les deux volumes de pasquinades ont cherché par leurs égratignures à faire ressortir les travers culturels les plus marquants des deux pans les plus importants de la société canadienne, en ne se concentrant pas sur leurs traits communs (qui sont nombreux) mais en insistant sur certaines sensibilités différentes et les prisons mentales qui s'y aboutent.

El compromiso del intelectual, en el sentido del engagement sartriano, fue durante buena parte del siglo XX un lugar común, al menos hasta 1968. Desde entonces, y más aún con el nuevo contexto alumbrado tras la caída del bloque soviético en 1989 y con el auge del posmodernismo, todo compromiso de semejante índole se volvió sospechoso. Y, sin embargo, este nunca desapareció del horizonte de los intelectuales.
Esta ambiciosa obra, coral y pluridisciplinar,...

Contra la política restringida a los partidos y la activación de la gente común y cualquiera. Contra los límites de lo posible y el cuestionamiento de la falta de democracia política y económica. Contra la polarización en forma de tablero de ajedrez, un espacio donde sentir y pensar autónomamente. Contra la alternativa "esto o el caos", la valentía colectiva de los anónimos. El 15M lo puso todo patas arriba y lo hizo con la simpatía general...

Most Americans could not fathom how Islamic terrorists could bring down the World Trade Center or an army psychiatrist could turn on his own soldiers, taking their lives in the name of his religion. How could an ex-army veteran blow up a federal building, or a Jewish doctor gun down Muslims at worship? Or how can one understand why a meditation guru would put sarin gas in a Tokyo subway? None of these incidents fit our conceptions of the benevolence...
