Homosexuality in Africa (17,95)
a disturbing love
2016 || Paperback || Bart Luirink e.a. || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
Plagues of locusts, drought and ebola. In Africa homosexuals are getting the blame for everything. It's open season. Homosexuality is called 'un-African', 'in direct conflict with its own distinctive culture', a 'western disease'. What's the motivation behind those leaders who are fighting to keep their continent 'morally pure'?
There's another story. More and more African gays and lesbians are coming out of the closet. Equal rights activism has become a reality and a passionate debate is rag...
Meet the Fokkens
at the red light district
2015 || Paperback || Louise Fokkens e.a. || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
The Fokkens are well-known, both in our own country and internationally. In their previous work we got acquainted with ‘the garden gnome’, and learned about other exciting details from their sex room. In this book the ladies leave nothing out, allowing the reader to learn about Holland’s most famous neighborhood: the Red Light District. With their stories they enlighten us about, for instance, the ‘Bon Bon eater’, ‘Pimmetje the Runner’, ‘the Fucker’, and ‘the Turd’.
Dynamic Ecology
The Dynamic interaction between man and nature
2024 || Paperback || Bart Nooteboom || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
The ecological perspective one has depends on fundamental forms of thought. The old form, with a separation of subject and object, in a static ontology of the fixed identities of things, led to destruction of nature, and we need a new form that is more nature-friendly, robust and flexible, that adapts to changing conditions. That digs deep.
I plead for an ontology of relational dynamics, oriented to change of humanity and nature, resulting from unpredictable interactions between humans among...
Is the Maslow pyramid universal?
prof. Pinto's the hierarchy of human needs / analysis of deep normative differences and a new pyramid
|| Paperback || David Pinto || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
The enormous growth in the world population, the ever-increasing difference in welfare between rich and poor countries and the rapid progress in mass communication and mass transport have caused peoples and
cultures to mingle more than ever before. We cannot get around it any longer: the cultural diversity of society is an indisputable fact. In interactions between people with different cultural norms and values (intercultural contact), there is a greater chance of misunderstanding, miscommun...
Dutch Decay
An Entrepreneurial answer to the decline of the Dutch welfare state
2021 || Paperback || Maurits v. Falkenreck || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
In this book, Maurits v. Falkenreck describes the decay of the Dutch welfare state, and also presents his innovative projects to counter this decay. During his years as an innovator and entrepreneur, he discovered the failing innovation system and culture in which he was operating. This resulted in a sharp and refined analysis of what he calls ‘The Political Ecosystem’.
Based on this model and the philosophical concept of ‘Model-Platonism’, Falkenreck has created a thorough system an...
A new philosophy of man & humanism
Basic principles
2023 || Paperback || Hans L.M. Dassen || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
In the 21st century we need a new philosophy as opposed to the old philosophy: a philosophy of man or philosophical anthropology. The importance of a new philosophy of man is that it addresses people all over the world, thus helping us to overcome our differences. And if we look a bit further into the world of the 21st century, we see that the most pressing project will be the search for meaning in the lives of human beings in a globalised world. Following the complete existential deconstruct...
