ISBN: 9788020022240 / Czeski / 2013 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Otázka, kterou si klade Jon Elster v této pozoruhodné knize, zní, co drží společnosti pohromadě a zabraňuje jim, aby se rozpadly v chaosu a válce. Elster analyzuje dva pojmy sociálního řádu: stálé, předpověditelné vzorce chování a kooperativní chování. Kniha zkoumá rozmanité aspekty kolektivního jednání a vyjednávání z hledisek teorie racionální volby a teorie sociálních norem. Vychází ze základního předpokladu, že sociální normy jsou důležitou motivací iracionálního (neracionálního) jednání. Kniha představuje významný milník v...

Alexis de Tocqueville, the First Social Scientist
ISBN: 9780521740074 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The book proposes a new interpretation of Alexis de Tocqueville that views him first and foremost as a social scientist rather than as a political theorist. Drawing on his earlier work on the explanation of social behavior, Elster argues that Tocqueville s main claim to our attention today rests on the large number of exportable causal mechanisms to be found in his work, many of which are still worthy of further exploration. Elster proposes a novel reading of Democracy in America in which the key explanatory variable is the rapid economic and political turnover rather than equality of wealth...

In this new edition of his critically acclaimed book, Jon Elster examines the nature of social behavior, proposing choice as the central concept of the social sciences.

Closing the Books: Transitional Justice in Historical Perspective
ISBN: 9780521839693 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. After a change of political system, notably a transition from an autocratic to a democratic, or at least constitutional, regime, a process of transitional justice emerges in which wrongdoers from the previous regime are judged responsible and victims are compensated. John Elster looks at examples and proposes a framework for explaining variations. In addition to the numerous transitions after 1945 in Western Europe and after 1989 in Eastern Europe, transitional justice has taken place in classical Greece, the English and French restorations, and, more recently, in Latin America and South...

Solomonic Judgements: Studies in the Limitations of Rationality
ISBN: 9780521376082 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This volume of essays is very much a sequel to the two earlier collections by Jon Elster, Ulysses and the Sirens and Sour Grapes. His topic is rationality--its scope, its limitations, and its failures. Elster considers rational responses to the insufficiency of reason itself and to the "indeterminacies" in deploying rational choice theory, and discusses the irrationality of not seeing when, where, and what these are. A key essay that gives the collection its title examines disputes in cases of child custody that are paradigmatically indeterminate. Leaving aside cases where one parent is...

Tocqueville: The Ancien Régime and the French Revolution
ISBN: 9780521718912 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This new translation of an undisputed classic aims to be both accurate and readable. Tocqueville's subtlety of style and profundity of thought offer a challenge to readers as well as to translators.

In his Introduction, Jon Elster draws on his recent work to lay out the structure of Tocqueville's argument. Readers will appreciate The Ancien Regime and the French Revolution for its sense of irony as well as tragedy, for its deep insights into political psychology, and for its...

Strong Feelings: Emotion, Addiction, and Human Behavior
ISBN: 9780262550369 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 266 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Emotion and addiction lie on a continuum between simple visceral drives such as hunger, thirst, and sexual desire at one end and calm, rational decision making at the other. Although emotion and addiction involve visceral motivation, they are also closely linked to cognition and culture. They thus provide the ideal vehicle for Jon Elster's study of the interrelation between three explanatory approaches to behavior: neurobiology, culture, and choice. The book is organized around parallel analyses of emotion and addiction in order to bring out similarities as well as differences....

Reason and Rationality
ISBN: 9780691139005 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. One of the world's most important political philosophers, Jon Elster is a leading thinker on reason and rationality and their roles in politics and public life. In this short book, he crystallizes and advances his work, bridging the gap between philosophers who use the idea of reason to assess human behavior from a normative point of view and social scientists who use the idea of rationality to explain behavior. In place of these approaches, Elster proposes a unified conceptual framework for the study of behavior. Drawing on classical moralists as well as modern scholarship,...

Institutional Design in Post-Communist Societies: Rebuilding the Ship at Sea
ISBN: 9780521479318 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The authors of this book have developed a different approach to the analysis of the transitions of Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Slovakia to democracy and a market economy. They integrate interdisciplinary theoretical work with elaborate empirical data on some of the most challenging events of the 20th century. Three groups of phenomena and their causal interconnection are explored: the material legacies, constraints, habits and cognitive frameworks inherited from the past; the erratic configuration of new actors, and new spaces for action; and a new institutional order under...
