More mature (yet younger) than ever, Nikos Dimou captures with his sober and often "twisted" critical gaze the contemporary reality: the world as it is - and not as it is presented through dominant fantasies.
This book could be characterized as a peculiar "history of ideas" of our time: 142 texts from the thinker Nikos Dimou (philosophical and political essays, analyses, commentaries, diary-like contemporary pieces, comments, interviews, and letters), most of which are unpublished, are gathered for the first time in one volume and form the foundational map of his thought and political proposal.
Scepticism, the constant choice of freedom, and the passionate defense of individuality are the main characteristics of a reflection that consistently tries to stand against nationalism, theocracy, puritanism, racism, and xenophobia.
A book that soberly undermines collective certainties and the foundations of every belief.
