L'implosion de l'URSS a remis l'histoire en mouvement. Elle avait plongé la Russie dans une crise violente. Elle avait surtout créé un vide planétaire qui a aspiré l'Amérique, pourtant elle-même en crise dès 1980. Un mouvement paradoxal s'est alors déclenché : l'expansion conquérante d'un Occident qui dépérissait en son coeur. La disparition du protestantisme a mené l'Amérique, par étapes, du néo-libéralisme au nihilisme ; et la Grande-Bretagne, de la financiarisation à la perte du sens de l'humour. L'état zéro de la religion a conduit l'Union européenne au suicide mais l'Allemagne devrait ressusciter. Entre 2016 et 2022, le nihilisme occidental a fusionné avec celui de l'Ukraine, né lui de la décomposition de la sphère soviétique. Ensemble, OTAN et Ukraine sont venus buter sur une Russie stabilisée, redevenue une grande puissance, désormais conservatrice, rassurante pour ce Reste du monde qui ne veut pas suivre l'Occident dans son aventure. Les dirigeants russes ont décidé une bataille d'arrêt : ils ont défié l'OTAN et envahi l'Ukraine. Mobilisant les ressources de l'économie critique, de la sociologie religieuse et de l'anthropologie des profondeurs, Emmanuel Todd nous propose un tour du monde réel, de la Russie à l'Ukraine, des anciennes démocraties populaires à l'Allemagne, de la Grande-Bretagne à la Scandinavie et aux États-Unis, sans oublier ce Reste du monde dont le choix a décidé de l'issue de la guerre.
"A vital read for a nation under Trump."-The Guardian"By placing Trump in transnational and transhistorical perspective, Stanley sees patterns that others miss. . . . Twenty months into Trump's presidency, the evidence is mounting that he's right."-The New York Times Book Review (Editors' Choice)Fascist politics are running rampant in America today-and spreading around the world. A Yale philosopher identifies the ten pillars of fascist politics, and charts their horrifying rise and deep history.As the child of refugees of World War II Europe and a renowned philosopher and scholar of propaganda, Jason Stanley has a deep understanding of how democratic societies can be vulnerable to fascism: Nations don't have to be fascist to suffer from fascist politics. In fact, fascism's roots have been present in the United States for more than a century. Alarmed by the pervasive rise of fascist tactics both at home and around the globe, Stanley focuses here on the structures that unite them, laying out and analyzing the ten pillars of fascist politics-the language and beliefs that separate people into an "us" and a "them." He knits together reflections on history, philosophy, sociology, and critical race theory with stories from contemporary Hungary, Poland, India, Myanmar, and the United States, among other nations. He makes clear the immense danger of underestimating the cumulative power of these tactics, which include exploiting a mythic version of a nation's past; propaganda that twists the language of democratic ideals against themselves; anti-intellectualism directed against universities and experts; law and order politics predicated on the assumption that members of minority groups are criminals; and fierce attacks on labor groups and welfare. These mechanisms all build on one another, creating and reinforcing divisions and shaping a society vulnerable to the appeals of authoritarian leadership.By uncovering disturbing patterns that are as prevalent today as ever, Stanley reveals that the stuff of politics-charged by rhetoric and myth-can quickly become policy and reality. Only by recognizing fascists politics, he argues, may we resist its most harmful effects and return to democratic ideals."With unsettling insight and disturbing clarity, How Fascism Works is an essential guidebook to our current national dilemma of democracy vs. authoritarianism."-William Jelani Cobb, author of The Substance of Hope
For decades, stories of alien abductions, UFO encounters, flying saucer sightings, and Area 51 have led millions of people to believe that extraterrestrials are secretly among us. But what if those millions of people are all wrong? What if the UFO phenomenon has much darker and far more ominous origins? For four years, UFO authority Nick Redfern has been investigating the strange and terrifying world of a secret group within the U.S. Government known as the Collins Elite. The group believes that our purported alien visitors are, in reality, deceptive demons and fallen angels. They are the minions of Satan, who are reaping and enslaving our very souls, and paving the way for Armageddon and Judgment Day. In FINAL EVENTS you'll learn about the secret government files on occultists Aleister Crowley and Jack Parsons, and their connections to the UFO mystery; revelations of the demonic link to the famous "UFO crash" at Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947; the disclosure of government investigations into life-after-death and out-of-body experiences; and an examination of the satanic agenda behind alien abductions. FINAL EVENTS reveals the stark and horrific truths about UFOs that some in the government would rather keep secret.

In The Challenger Sale, Matthew Dixon and Brent Adamson share the secret to sales success: don't just build relationships with customers. Challenge them What's the secret to sales success? If you're like most business leaders, you'd say it's fundamentally about relationships - and you'd be wrong. The best salespeople don't just build relationships with customers. They challenge them. Matthew Dixon, Brent Adamson, and their colleagues at CEB have studied the performance of thousands of sales reps worldwide. And what they discovered may be the biggest shock to conventional sales wisdom in decades. The Challenger Sale argues that classic relationship-building is the wrong approach. Every sales rep in the world falls into one of five distinct profiles, and while all of these types of reps can deliver average performance, only one - the Challenger - delivers consistently high performance. Instead of bludgeoning customers with facts and features, Challengers approach customers with insights about how they can save or make money. They tailor their message to the customer's specific needs. They are assertive, pushing back when necessary and taking control of the sale.Any sales rep, once equipped with the right tools, can drive higher levels of customer loyalty and, ultimately, greater growth. Matthew Dixon and Brent Adamson are managing directors with CEB's Sales Executive Council in Washington, D.C.

• Designs for 56 Iron Age bands • Illustrations of original archaeological finds • Completely new tablet-weaving technique discovered • From tiny finishing bands to spectacular belt bands Finland has a unique tablet weaving culture dating back a thousand years to the Finnish Iron Age when weavers created incredibly elaborate bands. Thanks to new, thorough research by the authors, these bands and their weaving techniques are now revived for the modern people to admire and to weave. Tablet weaving has a simple basic principle. A square tablet has a hole in each corner and yarns going through the holes. The threading direction, the colour of the yarns, the direction of the tablets, and the way they are turned – all of them affect the outcome: will the band be beautiful in its simplicity, or impressive in its intricacy. All the bands in this book are based on archaeological finds from Finland. Tablet-woven treasures buried in the ground a thousand years ago have come alive again.
