Against the Third Way: An Anti-Capitalist Critique
ISBN: 9780745626741 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Third Way is the political philosophy of Tony Blair and New Labour in Britain, Bill Clinton in the United States, and Gerhard Schroder in Germany. Defended most forcefully by Anthony Giddens, it claims to offer a strategy for renewing the Centre Left that avoids the free-market liberalism of the New Right and the state socialism of the Old Left.
In Against the Third Way Alex Callinicos develops a fundamental critique of this philosophy. He argues that Third Way governments have continued the neoliberal policies of their conservative predecessors. They have promoted the...

Bonfire of Illusions: The Twin Crises of the Liberal World
ISBN: 9780745648750 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Something dramatic happened in the late summer and autumn of 2008. The post-Cold War world came to an abrupt end. This was the result of two conjoined crises. First, in its brief war with Georgia in August 2008, Russia asserted its military power to halt the expansion of NATO to its very borders. Secondly, on 15 September 2008 the Wall Street investment bank Lehman Brothers collapsed. This precipitated a severe financial crash and helped to push the world economy into the worst slump since the 1930s.
Both crises marked a severe setback for the global power of the United States, which had... Something dramatic happened in the late summer and autumn of 2008. The post-Cold War world came to an abrupt end. This was the result of two conjoined...

Social Theory: A Historical Introduction
ISBN: 9780814715932 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The eighteenth-century Enlightenment saw the birth of an era which sought legitimacy not from the past but from the future. No longer would human beings invoke the authority of tradition; instead, modern societies emerging in the West justified themselves by their success at increasing, through the application of scientific knowledge, human control over the world. Ever since this notion of modernity was formulated it has provoked intense debate. In this wide-ranging historical introduction to social theory, Alex Callinicos explores the controversies over modernity and examines the...

In Imperialism and Global Political Economy Alex Callinicos intervenes in one of the main political and intellectual debates of the day.

The Resources of Critique
ISBN: 9780745631615 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Social criticism has enjoyed a renaissance in the past few years. The anti-globalization protests at Seattle and Genoa and the great marches against the war in Iraq have put contestation of capitalism and imperialism back on the political and intellectual agenda. But how does social critique situate itself philosophically today, after the marginalization of Marxism and the impact of postmodernism? In The Resources of Critique, Alex Callinicos seeks to address this question systematically. He does so, in the first part, by surveying some of the most influential contemporary critical theorists...

Against Postmodernism : A Marxist Critique
ISBN: 9780745606149 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. It has become an intellectual commonplace to claim that mankind has entered the era of post-modernity. Three themes are embraced in this claim - the poststructuralists critique by Foucault, Derrida and others of the philosophical heritage of the Enlightenment, the supposed impasse of the high modern art and its replacement by new artistic forms, and the alleged emergence of post-industrial societies whose structures are beyond the ken of Marx and other theorists of industrial capitalism.

The Revenge of History: Marxism and the East European Revolutions
ISBN: 9780745608488 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Callinicos's new book is a frontal assault on the widely accepted idea that the East European revolutions of 1989 mark the death of socialism.
In an attempt to vindicate the classical Marxist tradition, Callinicos argues that socialism in this tradition can only come from below, through the self-activity of the working class. Stalinism from this standpoint was a 'counter-revolution', erecting at the end of the 1920s a state capitalist regime on the ruins of the radically democratic socialism briefly achieved in October 1917. He further argues that the collapse of Stalinism at... Callinicos's new book is a frontal assault on the widely accepted idea that the East European revolutions of 1989 mark the death of socialism.

Making History: Agency, Structure, and Change in Social Theory
ISBN: 9789004136274 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Making History is about the question - central to social theory - of how human agents draw their powers from the social structures they are involved in. Drawing on classical Marxism, analytical philosophy, and a wide range of historical writing, Alex Callinicos seeks to avoid two unacceptable extremes - dissolving the subject into an impersonal flux, as poststructuralists tend to - and treating social structures as the mere effects of individual action (for example, rational-choice theory). Among those discussed are Althusser, Anderson, Benjamin, Brenner, Cohen, Elster, Foucault,...
