In today’s chaotic world, where the multiplication of information sources creates competing narratives, credibility is the key to winning the war of ideas. This is the reason why governments and corporations resort to astroturfing - creation of ostensibly grassroots movements set up to advance political agendas and commercial campaigns. The democratization of information and polarization of politics offer a perfect storm.

From New York Times best-selling author Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., comes a science-based call for the immediate removal of the dangerous mercury-containing preservative Thimerosal from vaccines.

Narasimha Rao became prime minister and appointed Dr Manmohan Singh as finance minister. In less than 35 days, the Rao-Singh duo ushered in momentous changes in economic policy - those that transformed the country.

Current responses to our most pressing societal challenges - from poverty to ethnic conflict to climate change - are not working. These problems are incredibly dynamic and complex, involving an ever-shifting array of factors, actors, and circumstances. They demand a highly fluid and adaptive approach, yet we address them by devising fixed, long-term plans. Social labs, says Zaid Hassan, are a dramatically more effective response. Social labs bring together a diverse a group of stakeholders.

Are Australian schools safe? And if they're not, what happens when kids are caught in a bleak collision between ill-equipped school staff and a confected media scandal? In 2016, the Safe Schools program became the centre of an ideological firestorm. In QE67, Benjamin Law explores how and why this happened. He weaves a subtle, gripping account of schools today, sexuality, teenagers, new ideas of gender fluidity, tabloid media scares and mental health.

Eliot Spitzer built his reputation as Attorney General of New York by redefining the role and purpose of the public prosecutor. The cases he brought against the largest corporations on Wall Street and others - both criminal and civil - targeted pervasive misconduct and structural flaws in the economy that were metastasizing in the years leading up to 2008. The cases themselves and the remedies they produced were precedent setting. Today, after the financial crisis has exposed the faults that were brewing and the ever-expanding gap between the 1% and the 99%, it is clear that Eliot Spitzer was prescient.

Since the eviction of Occupy protestors from encampments in many cities throughout the world, smaller and more targeted occupations have continued. Workers in a Chicago factory occupied - with the support of their union - to protest layoffs. Teachers and students in Tucson staged a walkout to protest the removal of Chicano history books from the curriculum. Home foreclosures were disrupted, even avoided, by direct community action. But what does it all mean? What do we talk about when we talk about "revolution", if we talk about it at all?

In the pursuit of possible links between childhood vaccines, intestinal inflammation, and neurologic injury in children, Wakefield lost his job in London’s Royal Free Hospital, his country of birth, his career, and his medical license. A recent General Medical Council ruling stated that he was “dishonest, irresponsible and showed callous disregard for the distress and pain of children.” Maligned by the medical establishment and mainstream media, Wakefield endeavors to set the record straight.

Andrew Wakefield reveals the inside story of desperate parents trying to help their autistic children, only to be labeled as abusers by social workers, medical professionals, and the courts. As the number of children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders grows each year, new discoveries and controversies arise. Andrew Wakefield explores many of these in his thorough investigation of the recent trial case of the “Arizona 5,” which destroyed an Arizona family.

Questo libro che il Mulino ripubblica in una nuova edizione rivista è un'opera importante sulla guerra: non solo e non tanto dal punto di vista dell'evoluzione tecnica e strategica ma anche e soprattutto da quello dell'ideologia e della mentalità: insomma della sua "cultura": com'era, quale posto aveva nella vita delle società, come la vivevano gli uomini che la facevano e la subivano.

I grandi partiti popolari vivono oggi una crisi profonda, dopo aver segnato ininterrottamente la vita politica italiana fino al crollo della Prima Repubblica. Il vuoto di consenso e di proposte che hanno lasciato ha creato uno spazio per un linguaggio diverso, più diretto, che ha favorito l'ascesa, apparentemente inarrestabile, di forze populiste. Pietro Folena, politico e operatore culturale, indaga le ragioni di questo cambiamento in un saggio che ricostruisce gli ultimi trent'anni della politica italiana.

Oggi in Europa viviamo in società sempre più disomogenee. Le tensioni e i conflitti etnici, religiosi e culturali che attraversano centri e periferie impongono la ricerca di nuove forme di convivenza. Secondo Cinzia Sciuto, la strada da percorrere per una società capace di tenere insieme disomogeneità culturale e diritti delle persone è quella di una visione etica e politica radicalmente laica. Ma che cosa significa essere laici?

O polêmico movimento Escola sem Partido começou em 2003 como uma organização informal preocupada com “a contaminação político-ideológica das escolas” e o “abuso da liberdade de ensinar”. O movimento cresceu, ganhou adeptos incondicionais e adversários ferrenhos. Porém, mais importante do que evocar adjetivos apaixonados é ampliar o debate sobre a ética profissional docente: o que professores podem e devem fazer na sala de aula?
