Folkestyret er under pres – både i Danmark og Europa. Men truslen kommer ikke fra populisme eller antiliberalisme, som mange siger. Truslen kommer fra dem, der hævder at være de sande demokrater, vogterne af den gode tone, konventionerne og ”den europæiske livsform” – nemlig fra de ”liberaldemokratiske” ideologer, som hverken er særlig demokratiske eller særlig liberale. Liberaldemokraterne frygter folkestyret. De vil binde den politiske magt gennem konventioner og jura. De vil lægge bånd på vælgerne og overlade magten til dommere, embedsmænd og eksperter. De siger på papiret ja til folkestyret - men helst uden folk. Derfor bygger liberaldemokratiet på glødende EU-begejstring og had til den nationalstat, som er rammen om al ægte demokrati. Farvel til folkestyret er Morten Messerschmidts analyse af folkestyrets udfordringer og et bud på en løsning, der tager magten tilbage til folket

Exploring how neoliberalism has discovered the productive force of the psycheByung-Chul Han, a star of German philosophy, continues his passionate critique of neoliberalism, trenchantly describing a regime of technological domination that, in contrast to Foucault's biopower, has discovered the productive force of the psyche. In the course of discussing all the facets of neoliberal psychopolitics fueling our contemporary crisis of freedom, Han elaborates an analytical framework that provides an original theory of Big Data and a lucid phenomenology of emotion. But this provocative essay proposes counter models too, presenting a wealth of ideas and surprising alternatives at every turn.

"Immensely enjoyable . . . Zetter turns a complicated and technical cyber story into an engrossing whodunit."-The Washington Post The virus now known as Stuxnet was unlike any other piece of malware built before: Rather than simply hijacking targeted computers or stealing information from them, it proved that a piece of code could escape the digital realm and wreak actual, physical destruction-in this case, on an Iranian nuclear facility. In these pages, journalist Kim Zetter tells the whole story behind the world's first cyberweapon, covering its genesis in the corridors of the White House and its effects in Iran-and telling the spectacular, unlikely tale of the security geeks who managed to unravel a top secret sabotage campaign years in the making. But Countdown to Zero Day also ranges beyond Stuxnet itself, exploring the history of cyberwarfare and its future, showing us what might happen should our infrastructure be targeted by a Stuxnet-style attack, and ultimately, providing a portrait of a world at the edge of a new kind of war.
