The Crisis of Bourgeois Natural Science
The third volume of the book series, The Crisis of Bourgeois Ideology, and the Doctrine of the Mode of Thinking, deals with the crisis of bourgeois natural science. Natural scientists generally are held in high esteem in bourgeois society because they are seemingly apolitical, unimpeachable, and committed solely to social progress. With the advance of positivism and pragmatism, however, the natural sciences lost much of their scientificity and have gotten into a crisis. This polemic is intended to revive materialistically based free thinking in the working class. Unless it frees itself from the shackles of idealism and metaphysics, humanity will not be able to utilize the achievements of the modern natural sciences for social progress. Thus, this book is also a must for every scientist with a critical mind. It serves the purpose of helping scientific socialism and its dialectical-materialist method gain new esteem.

A Buddhist Deception
Innumerable human beings have been lulled into and imprisoned by beliefs and dogmas and assumptions of religions, sects, false philosophies and other world-views, by which they lose their striving and consequently, the seeking, the intuiting, the investigating and the evolving. Without any exception though, only human beings who were unstable and are unstable fell for and fall for a belief and dogmas and assumptions of false philosophies, religions and sects and world-views......... ...... Nonetheless, however, the modern times as well bring visible change with regard to the recognition of the truth. The truly rational ones and the ones attempting to think logically, those who are effectively searching for the truthful truth, those, who are willing to acknowledge and follow the Creational laws and recommendations, they have become stronger and more in number, despite of all mendacious and misleading sects, religions, false philosophies and other irrational world-views. The number of truthly truth-seekers is growing and growing, even though when they are being hounded by misguiding sects of all hues and from other false thinkers. .........
Animal law in the Third Reich
What do National Socialism and animal law have in common? Indeed, when talking about animal welfare and species conservation, one cannot overlook the fact that the laws emanated in the Third Reich were amongst the first to regulate these matters in a structured and unified manner. For obvious reasons, though, the topic of animal protection in Nazi Germany has been overshadowed by the human tragedy, which occurred in this period of history. How could the Nazis have been concerned about animals whilst perpetrating appalling acts against humans? It would be easy to dismiss their benevolent disposition toward animals as hypocritical. Nevertheless, several associations can be made between the Ger...
Metaphor and the Dynamics of Knowledge
This book opens up a new route to the study of knowledge dynamics and the sociology of knowledge. The focus is on the role of metaphors as powerful catalysts, and the book dissects their role in the construction of theories of knowledge. It is of vital interest to social and cognitive scientists alike.
History As Propaganda
Despite Chinese efforts to stop foreign countries from granting him visas, the Dalai Lama has become one of the most recognizable and best loved people on the planet, drawing enormous crowds wherever he goes. By contrast, China's charismatically-challenged leaders attract crowds of protestors waving Tibetan flags and shouting "Free Tibet!" whenever they visit foreign countries. By now most Westerners probably think they understand the political situation in Tibet. But, John Powers argues, most Western scholars of Tibet evince a bias in favor of one side or the other in this continuing struggle. Some of the most emotionally charged rhetoric, says Powers, is found in studies of Tibetan history. narratives.
Zirkus? Nein danke
Colin Goldner zeichnet die Geschichte des Zirkuswesens nach, von dessen Anfängen im alten Rom bis hin zu den heutigen Angeboten, die in ihrer "klassischen" Form wesentlich auf der Gefangenhaltung und Zurschaustellung dressierter Tiere beruhen. Die Wildtierhaltung in Zirkussen umgehend zu beenden ist ein zentrales Anliegen des Buches. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit erfährt der Kampf um die Freiheit des letzten Zirkusschimpansen ROBBY, der bis zu seinem Tod 2022 mehr als vierzig Jahre seines Lebens in einem norddeutschen Zirkus den Manegenclown geben musste. Ein umfassendes Plädoyer gegen die Ausbeutung von Tieren in der Unterhaltungsindustrie.
Der Zoo - Kein Platz für Tiere
Zoos stellen sich gerne als Einrichtungen dar, die für Tiere da sind, das Überleben von Arten sichern und den Millionen Besuchern Wissen über wild lebende Tiere vermitteln. Doch das stimmt nicht, meint der Leiter des Great Ape Project Colin Goldner. In seinem Text gibt er einen kurzen Überblick über die Realität in den Zoos, die Lebensbedingungen der Tiere und die Ausrichtung der Tierparks an den Bedürfnissen der menschlichen Besucher. Seine Ausführungen bieten die grundlegenden Argumente für eine Schließung der Zoos.

Verh„ltnis Mensch - Tier und seine Bedeutung fr die Qualit„t zwischenmenschlicher Beziehungen: Unser Umgang mit Tieren und dessen Relevanz fr Krieg und Frieden
Das Verh„ltnis zwischen Menschen und anderen Tieren hat zahlreiche Facetten, ist so alt wie der Mensch selbst und hat wiederum Einfluss auf zwischenmenschliche Beziehungen. Eine strenge Hierarchie l„sst den Menschen als legitimen Herrscher erscheinen und tradiert dieses Verh„ltnis zumeist unhinterfragt; es wird im Rahmen der Sozialisation, unter anderem auch durch Sprache, fest in unseren K”pfen verankert. Als gewaltsames Herrschaftsverh„ltnis bietet das Verh„ltnis zwischen Menschen und anderen Tieren dabei Gewalt als ein legitimes Handlungsmittel an, welches zwar nicht auf Menschen bertragen werden soll, dessen bloáe Existenz aber Modellcharakter fr zwischenmenschliches Han...
