Forthcoming How Propaganda Works Jason Stanley Our democracy today is fraught with political campaigns, lobbyists, liberal media, and Fox News, all using language to influence the way we think and reason about public issues. Even so, many of us believe that propaganda and manipula- tion aren’t problems for us—not in the way they were for the totalitarian societies of the mid-twentieth century. In How Propaganda Works, Jason Stanley demonstrates that more attention needs to be paid. He examines how propaganda operates subtly, how it undermines democracy—particularly the ideals of democratic deliberation and equality—and how it has damaged democracies of the past. Focusing on the shortcomings of liberal democratic states, Stanley provides a historically grounded introduction to democratic political theory as a window into the misuse of democratic vocabulary for propaganda’s selfish purposes. He lays out historical examples, such as the restructuring of the US public school system at the turn of the twentieth century, to explore how the language of democracy is sometimes “Jason Stanley’s How Propaganda Works is used to mask an undemocratic reality.

General Interest Forthcoming Teaching Plato in Palestine Philosophy in a Divided World Carlos Fraenkel Foreword by Michael Walzer Teaching Plato in Palestine is part intellectual travelogue, part plea for integrating philosophy into our personal and public life. Philosophical toolkit in tow, Carlos Fraenkel invites read- ers on a tour around the world as he meets students at Pal- estinian and Indonesian universities, lapsed Hasidic Jews in New York, teenagers from poor neighborhoods in Brazil, and the descendants of Iroquois warriors in Canada. They turn to Plato and Aristotle, al-Ghazālī and Maimonides, Spinoza and Nietzsche for help to tackle big questions: Does God exist? Is piety worth it? Can violence be justified? What is social justice and how can we get there? Who should rule? And how shall we deal with the legacy of colonialism? Fraenkel shows how useful the tools of philosophy can be—particularly in places fraught with conflict—to clarify such questions and explore answers to them. In the course of the discussions, different viewpoints often clash. That’s a good thing, Fraenkel argues, “This short, interesting, and well-written as long as we turn our disagreements on moral, religious, and book provides an insightful and optimis- philosophical issues into what he calls a “culture of debate.” tic view on the possibilities that philos- Conceived as a joint search for the truth, a culture of debate ophy offers to bridge religious, ethnic, gives us a chance to examine the beliefs and values we were and cultural divides and, perhaps, brought up with and often take for granted.

The lively narratives, based on the author’s experiences of working with various groups interested in using philosophical tools to clarify their thought and action, will engage a wide range of readers.” —Gary Gutting, University of Notre Dame

We must also maintain protected channels that render reliable communication possible, a de- mand that, Seana Shiffrin argues, yields a prohibition against lying and requires protection for free speech. This book makes a distinctive philosophical argument for the wrong of the lie and provides an original account of its difference from the wrong of deception. Drawing on legal as well as philosophical arguments, the book defends a series of notable claims—that you may not lie about everything to the “murderer-at-the-door,” that you have reasons to keep promises offered under duress, that lies are not protected by free speech, that police subvert their mis- sion when they lie to suspects, and that scholars undermine their goals when they lie to research subjects. “This very important book will be Many philosophers start to craft moral exceptions to mandatory reading for legal scholars demands for sincerity and fidelity when they confront interested in duress, for philosophers wrongdoers, the pressures of non-ideal circumstances, or and others concerned with lying, and for the achievement of morally substantial ends.
