About one-third of Brazilians in formal employment have a “6×1” workweek—six days of work followed by one day of rest—which is particularly common in sectors such as air travel, hotels, healthcare, retail, and food service. In late May, Brazil’s Chamber of Deputies approved a constitutional amendment that would effectively ban this work arrangement, sending the proposal to the Senate for ratification.  The proposal would reduce Brazil’s constitutionally set cap on weekly working hours from 44 to 40 and require two paid rest days per week. In Brazil, service workers are typically paid a fixed monthly salary rather than an hourly…

Joshua Scheer Women are more visible in public life than ever before. They lead corporations, run for president, dominate popular culture and shape public debate. Yet according to media scholar Allison Butler, visibility is not the same as power—and it is certainly not the same as being heard. With a core theme of this interview being “visibility is not the same thing as power.” In this wide-ranging conversation with Joshua Scheer, Butler discusses the themes of her book Judgment of Gender: Analyzing the Silencing of Women, examining how patriarchy, capitalism, media narratives and political power continue to shape whose…

In a special America 250 issue, Reason takes a look back at our country’s founding people and ideas. Read more here. Joanna Andreasson In “Why I Am Not a Conservative,” the economist F.A. Hayek averred that “what in Europe was called ‘liberalism’ was here the common tradition on which the American polity had been built.” He was neither the first nor the last to see America primarily as a nation rooted in individual liberty. Yet to think the United States is purely a liberal country is to take a truth too far. The Founders drew on a panoply of sources, from classical…

Edward J. Curtin, Jr. ScheerPost “In the mountains of truth, you never climb in vain.”― Friedrich Nietzsche Early June. Dawn brings mist covered mountains and an empty road. The car’s capsule draws us together. I am taking my adult son to a trail that begins at the bottom of a ski slope where he will start a twenty-one mile run up and over a series of mountain peaks and through dense forests. It is Sunday morning and soon many will awake and go into buildings to pray. Emerson and Thoreau suggested otherwise, and my son hears the same call.…

A study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that adults who exercised 560 to 610 minutes per week had a more than 30% lower risk of cardiovascular disease compared with inactive individuals, according to web sources [1][2]. Current World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines recommending 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week were associated with an 8 to 9% reduction in cardiovascular risk, the study reported [1][2]. Researchers said the findings suggest that the 150-minute target may serve as a minimum threshold rather than the level for optimal protection. The study’s lead author, Ziheng Ning, a professor at Macao Polytechnic…

One recent early evening, airstrikes hit southern Lebanon. In the hours that followed, videos purportedly showing this circulated on TikTok, Telegram and X. Had it not been real, it might have resembled a scene from a war film: jets overhead, explosions echoing across hills, smoke rising fast, hidden forces exchanging fire across a frontier. But […] To read this article, log in here or subscribe here.

Joelyn and I talked through the bars on the stall windows as we shoveled manure into large buckets. We had gotten to know each other one Saturday morning after another, swapping stories while hoisting heavy buckets of horse shit into a small John Deere tractor at the barn where I worked and he volunteered each […] To read this article, log in here or subscribe here.
