Generacion Idiota – (Spanish)
$15.99
Siguiendo con la idea general de su libro La batalla cultural, el afamado escritor, politologo, intelectual y conferencista Agustin Laje invita a la juventud a rebelarse contra el paradigma dominante, uniendose a la batalla cultural que las nuevas derechas estan dando en todo el mundo.
Los antiguos griegos llamaban “idiota” al hombre desconectado de su contexto, desconectado de los problemas de la ciudad, ignorante respecto de todo acontecer: idiota era el hombre ensimismado.
En nuestros dias hay una generacion idiota, manipulada por una cultura que, mientras masifica a los jovenes, los hace sentir originales; al mismo tiempo que los engaa de mil maneras, los hace creer empoderados; y a la vez que los sumerge en un hedonismo consumista en el que compran hasta su misma identidad, los hace creer revolucionarios.
La generacion idiota analiza:
*Como la juventud de hoy ha triunfado, y ha traspasado su forma al conjunto social
*Como recuperar el poder en la familia cuando los miembros mas jovenes de la familia quedan, en su educacion y socializacion, merced del Estado y los dispositivos culturales multimediaticos, que procuran reemplazar el rol del padre y de la madre.
*Como la politica se ha vuelto adolescente – No es ningun secreto, la politica ha bebido de la idiotez en una sociedad en la que un baile en TikTok del candidato hoy resulta mas llamativo que un programa de gobierno.
*El papel de la escuela, las universidades y el mundo digital – La subjetividad juvenil se constituye en torno a estos dispositivos e instituciones. Pero en ellos se juega la cultura en batallas culturales que hay que analizar y abordar.
Es hora de levantarse y romper el esquema de una sociedad dominada por los adolescentes y el uso deficiente de la voluntad y la razon. Es hora de unirse en la batalla cultural y deshacer las obras de la generacion idiota. Estas listo para unirte a la nueva derecha?
Idiot Generation
Continuing with the general idea of his book The Cultural Battle, the famed writer, political scientist, intellectual, and lecturer Agustin Laje invites the youth to rebel against the dominant paradigm, joining the cultural battle that the new right-wingers are waging all over the world.
In our days there is an idiot generation, manipulated by a culture that, while massifying young people, makes them feel original; at the same time that deceives them in a thousand ways, makes them believe they are empowered; and at the same time that immers

Soul Searching : The Religious And Spiritual Lives Of American Teenagers
$67.00Add to cartWinner of the 2006 Christianity Today Book Award for Christianity and Culture Description
In most discussions and analyses of American teenage life, one major topic is curiously overlooked–religion. Yet most American teens say that religious faith is important in their lives. What is going on in the religious and spiritual lives of American teenagers? What do they actually believe? What religious practices do they engage in? Do they expect to remain loyal to the faith of their parents? Or are they abandoning traditional religious institutions in search of a new, more “authentic” spirituality?
Answering these and many other questions, Soul Searching tells the definitive story of the religious and spiritual lives of contemporary American teenagers. It reports the findings of The National Study of Youth and Religion, the largest and most detailed such study ever undertaken. Based on a nationwide telephone survey of teens and their parents, as well as in-depth face-to-face interviews with more than 250 of the survey respondents, Soul Searching shows that religion is indeed a significant factor in the lives of many American teenagers. Chock full of carefully interpreted interview data and solid survey statistics, Soul Searching reveals many surprising findings. For example, the authors find that teenagers are far more influenced by the religious beliefs and practices of their parents and other adults than is commonly thought. They challenge the conventional wisdom that many teens today are “spiritual seekers.” And they show that greater teenage religious involvement is significantly associated with more positive adolescent life outcomes.
Soul Searching reveals the complexity of contemporary teenage religious life, showing that religion is widely practiced and positively valued by teens, but also de-prioritized and very poorly understood by them, yet significant nonetheless in shaping their lives. More broadly, Soul Searching describes what appears to be a major transformation of faith in the U.S., away from the substance of historical religious traditions and toward a new and quite different faith the authors call “Moralistic Therapeutic Deism.”
