Book Description
Sperlich examines the ideological foundations of the socialist regime of the former German Democratic Republic. He provides a detailed analysis of the nature of the GDR's legitimating ideology and of the reasons why the ideology ultimately failed to legitimate the regime. The study uses primary source documents extensively as well as the little existing secondary literature. This is part of Sperlich's larger project dealing with the government, society, economy, political participation, and administration of the law and the system of courts of the GDR. This definitive treatment of the GDR provides the background essential to an understanding of all communist systems of the twentieth century. As such, it is vital reading for scholars, students, and other researchers seeking to understand the rise and ultimate collapse of communist systems and, in particular, the decline of the German Democratic Republic.

Book Description
Now capitalism became more dependent on ICT knowledge and innovative skills with the advent of nanotechnology, bio-chemical researches, DNA engineering, artificial intelligence, quantum computing, IoT, big data, e-governance, industry 4.0 and interactive social media. Nearly all of former tacit knowledge became explicit and has been available for netizens of the cyber world. Even human privacy, government credentials, and business secrets have been revealed easily by wiki-leaks and omnipresent social media. However more than goodness of this kind of improvements and economic development, evil sides of digital divide, trolls, fake accounts, propaganda, social engineering and dirty information has been emerged like thorns to roses. I have aimed to add value to the area by putting a systematic, integrative and disciplined approach to the reality of cyber-capitalism which is a new mode of production and socio-technological relations that covers innovative processes of both public and private domains. Science, politics, economics and nuclear military have confessed their impotency and insufficiency against a miniscule virus called COVID19 that halted all dynamics and potentialities of the ultra and sub-systems of capitalism. Without rhetorical dogmas of historical materialism and deterministic philosophy against the capitalism, we have tried a unique methodology of Divine point of view to obtain wisdom in the complex systems and intertwining relations using infusion of different knowledge domains in relation with capitalist dynamics.

Book Description
This book studies Hume’s scepticism and its roots, context, and role in the philosopher’s life. It relates how Hume wrote his philosophy in a time of tumult, as the millennia-old metaphysical tradition that placed humans and their cognitive abilities in an ontological framework collapsed and gave way to one that placed the autonomy of the individual in its center. It then discusses the birth of modernity that Descartes inaugurated and Kant completed with his Copernican revolution that moved philosophy from Being to the Self. It shows how modernity gave rise to a new kind of scepticism, involving doubt not just about the adequacy of our knowledge but about the very existence of a world independent of the self. The book then examines how Hume faced the sceptical implications and how his empiricism added yet another sceptical theme with the main question being how argument can legitimize key concepts of human understanding instinctively used in making sense of our perceptions. Placing it firmly in a historical context, the book shows how Hume was influenced by Pyrrhonian scepticism and how this becomes clear in Hume’s acceptance of the weakness of reason and in his emphasis on the practical role of philosophy. As the book argues, rather than serving as the foundation of science, in Hume’s hand, philosophy became a guide to a joyful, happy life, to a documentary of common life and to moderately educated, entertaining conversation. This way Hume stands in strong opposition to the (early) modern mainstream.
