OFFSHORE INVESTMENTS That SAFEGUARD CASH Your CASH

The first thing that should be said to someone who is thinking of “going offshore” is that it is like going into major surgery. The outcomes can differ enormously, depending on the skill of the surgeons and what they are trying to accomplish. You may simply want to protect your money from volatility that comes with market crisis, economic instability, and a turbulent U.S. dollar. Or maybe …

TOWARDS A RADICAL METAPHYSICS OF SOCIALISM

François Laruelle’s non-Marxist reading of Marx, executed in Introduction au non-marxisme, is accomplished by allowing Marx’s text to speak for itself, without placing it into the history of philosophy.1 A non-philosophical reading of Marx operates with the “use-value” of concepts that have been radicalized to expose their unilateral correlation with the effect of the real. In non-phi…

Dissent on Core Beliefs

Difference, diversity, and disagreement are inevitable features of our ethical, social, and political landscape. Although difference of opinion is not a modern phenomenon, the modern world is particularly concerned with the ethical navigation of difference. What is the range of appropriate responses to deep disagreement? How should we interact with those with whom we do not see eye to eye? When…

Demystifying the IPsec Puzzle

For quite a long time, computer security was a rather narrow field of study that was populated mainly by theoretical computer scientists, electrical engineers, and applied mathematicians. With the proliferation of open sys- tems in general, and the Internet and the World Wide Web (WWW) in particular, this situation has changed fundamentally. Today, computer and network practitioners are equally…

Deconstructing Dignity

About a “right to die” there is obviously not yet any legal, political, or ethical consensus. But has the very question of such a right been formulated clearly? Despite a long philosophic tradition addressing the question of suicide itself and, more recently, a half-century of legal decisions, a growing library of scholarly studies across multiple disciplines, and a steady out- pouring of p…
