From Primates to Politicians
From Primates to Politicians traces politics to its atavistic roots in human evolution, explaining how survival instincts, status competition, and resource struggle shape modern behavior. Juan Manuel Muñoz examines politics as a marketplace dominated by economic elites and political marketing—an arena of distortion we’ve learned to tolerate. In three parts, he surveys primatology, evolution, and power relations; unpacks the evolution of societies and the foundations of conservatism and liberalism; and presents an “evolutionary theory of politics,” applying it to current events and global forecasts.

Hannah and Martin
Hannah & Martin is a dramatized play about the fraught philosophical and romantic entanglement between Hannah Arendt and Martin Heidegger. Set against questions of being, truth, and ethics, it confronts the tension between Arendt’s Jewish identity and Heidegger’s Nazi affiliation. Stephen Vicchio uses their relationship to probe the moral stakes of ideas. Complementing the drama are essays exploring human suffering, love in classical and Christian traditions, and the ethical implications of philosophical thought—inviting readers to consider how personal history shapes morality and existence.

It traces how racism, nationalism, religious strife, gender inequality, and extreme wealth and poverty are increasingly delegitimized—prompting a frantic last stand by those who benefit. Amid collapsing institutions, it highlights the forward march toward peace and the practical role each person can play in advancing it.
