Roots' Garden explores the deep roots of political, social, and industrial movements. We offer analyses and reflections on the forces that have shaped our societies.
Political roots — From the French Revolution to contemporary democratic movements, we trace the political ideas and structures that have shaped Europe.
Industrial roots — The industrial revolutions fundamentally changed our world. We examine how technology and economy reshape societies.
Social roots — Labor movements, feminism, civil rights: the social struggles that shaped our rights and freedoms.
Cultural roots — How art, literature, and philosophy reflect and transform society.
We believe that knowledge of the past is essential to understanding the present and building the future.
“Roots' Garden offers a unique perspective on the forces that have shaped our society.”
