The New Social Economy: Reworking the Division of Labor
ISBN: 9781557862808 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. As capitalism develops and state socialism disintegrates, divisions of labor are being reorganized, with major implications for the distribution of power in society. Yet the concept of division of labor has been one of the most neglected in contemporary political economy and social theory. Compared to class, gender or markets, it has typically been treated as a rather indifferent concept, part of the backdrop rather than one of the key forces of the economy and society.
Dealing with the reworking of the division of labor in both practice and theory, and transcending the narrow... As capitalism develops and state socialism disintegrates, divisions of labor are being reorganized, with major implications for the distribution of po...

Why We Can't Afford the Rich
ISBN: 9781447320869 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Even as inequalities widen, the effects of austerity deepen, and the consequences of recession linger, in many countries the wealth of the rich has soared. Why We Can't Afford the Rich exposes the unjust and dysfunctional mechanisms that allow the top 1% to siphon off wealth produced by others through the control of property and money. Leading social scientist Andrew Sayer shows how over the past three decades the rich worldwide have increased their ability to hide their wealth, create indebtedness, and expand their political influence. Aimed at all engaged citizens, this...

The Moral Significance of Class
ISBN: 9780521850896 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Class affects not only our material wealth but our access to relationships and practices which we have reason to value, including the esteem or respect of others and hence our sense of self-worth. It determines the kind of people we become and our chances of living a fulfilling life. Applying concepts from moral philosophy and social theory to empirical studies of class, this accessible study demonstrates how people are valued in a context of the lottery of birth class, or forces having little to do with moral qualities or other merits.

Why Things Matter to People
ISBN: 9781107001145 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Andrew Sayer undertakes a fundamental critique of social science's difficulties in acknowledging that people's relation to the world is one of concern. As sentient beings, capable of flourishing and suffering, and particularly vulnerable to how others treat us, our view of the world is substantially evaluative. Yet modernist ways of thinking encourage the common but extraordinary belief that values are beyond reason, and merely subjective or matters of convention, with little or nothing to do with the kind of beings people are, the quality of their social relations, their material...

Radical Political Economy
ISBN: 9780631193753 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. With the rise of the New Right, the demise of state socialism, and the development of concerns over the nature of modernity, the reception of Marxist and radical theories of capitalist society has become, to say the least, skeptical. In this book Andrew Sayer rethinks and reformulates radical political economy.
The author argues that Marxist theories of capitalism must learn both from the problems of socialism and, more controversially, from liberalism. In a major critique of Marxist and post-Marxist political economy he argues that one of its central problems may be traced to...

Traditionally social science treated culture as a peripheral issue, but the last twenty years have witnessed a cultural turn throughout the social sciences. Culture is now at the core of debate.
