What, if anything, is valid in Marx's work today, following the events of 1989 and after in Eastern Europe?

The Consequences of Modernity
ISBN: 9780804718912 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this major theoretical statement, the author offers a new and provocative interpretation of institutional transformations associated with modernity. What is modernity? The author suggests, "As a first approximation, let us simply say the following: 'modernity' refers to modes of social life or organization which emerged in Europe from about the seventeenth century onwards and which subsequently became more or less worldwide in their influence." We do not as yet, the author argues, live in a post-modern world. The distinctive characteristics of our major social institutions in the closing...

Europe in the Global Age
ISBN: 9780745640129 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Europe's social model - its system of welfare and social protection - is regarded by many as the jewel in the crown. It is what helps to give the European societies their distinctive qualities of social cohesion and care for the vulnerable. Over recent years, however, the social model has come under great strain in many states within the European Union - unemployment, for example, remains stubbornly high. The resulting tensions have fuelled dissatisfaction with the European project as a whole, culminating in the rejection of Europe's proposed new constitution.

The Progressive Manifesto: New Ideas for the Centre-Left
ISBN: 9780745632940 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book seeks to develop a new agenda for the centre-left. During the 1990's, left of centre governments or coalitions came into power in the US, many of the European Union countries, and in societies elsewhere too. The modernisation of social democracy was crucial to these successes - all centre-left parties that came to power revised and updated their traditional doctrines. Recent years have seen the widespread return of the right to power, coupled to the prominence of far right parties in many countries.
The centre-left must respond. Third-way... This book seeks to develop a new agenda for the centre-left. During the 1990's, left of centre governments or coalitions came into power in the US, ma...

The Nation-State and Violence: Volume 2 of a Contemporary Critique of Historical Materialism
ISBN: 9780520060395 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The social sciences have long been based upon contrasts drawn between the 'militaristic' societies of the past, and the 'capitalist' or 'industrial' societies of the present. But how valid are such contrasts, given that the current era is one stamped by the impact of war and by the intensive development of sophisticated weaponry?
In setting out to address this and similar questions, this book investigates issues that have been substantially neglected by those working in sociology and social theory. Anthony Giddens offers a sociological analysis of the nature of the modern nation-state and...

The Third Way and Its Critics
ISBN: 9780745624495 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The idea of finding a 'third way' in politics has become a focus of discussion across the world. Political leaders, in the US, Europe, Asia and Latin America claim to be following its principles. Yet the notion has also attracted much criticism. Some say it is an empty concept without any real content. Critics from the more traditional left argue that it is a betrayal of left-wing ideals.
Anthony Giddens's The Third Way (Polity Press, 1998) is regarded by many as the key text of third way politics. Translated into twenty-five languages, it has shaped the development of...

Im ersten historischen Teil seiner Arbeit (Kapitel 1-4) rekonstruiert Giddens die klassische - vor allem die Marxsche - Klassentheorie sowie die ebenso klassische Kritik an ihr, die von Marx Weber.

The Transformation of Intimacy: Sexuality, Love, and Eroticism in Modern Societies
ISBN: 9780804720908 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The sexual revolution: an evocative term, but what meaning can be given to it today? How does "sexuality" come into being, and what connections does it have with the changes that have affected personal life more generally? In answering these questions, the author disputes many of the dominant interpretations of the role of sexuality in modern culture.
The author suggests that the revolutionary changes in which sexuality has become cauth up are more long-term than generally conceded. He sees them as intrinsic to the development of modern societies as a whole and to the broad... The sexual revolution: an evocative term, but what meaning can be given to it today?

The Consequences of Modernity
ISBN: 9780745609232 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this work, Giddens offers a new interpretation of the institutional transformations associated with modernity. His main argument is that we do not as yet live in a post-modern world. Rather, the distinctive characteristics of major social institutions in the closing period of the 20th century express the emergence of a period of high modernity, in which prior trends are radicalized rather than undermined.

Over to You, MR Brown: How Labour Can Win Again
ISBN: 9780745642239 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Anthony Giddens' The Third Way had a far-reaching impact upon the evolution of New Labour in the UK, and upon left of centre policies in many other countries too. Today, nearly a decade later, Labour stands again at a decisive point in its history. A change of leadership can help reinvigorate the party, but winning a fourth term of government will be impossible without reinvigorating Labour's ideological position and policy outlook.
What form should these innovations take? The author argues that the core emphases that have sustained Labour's hold over power for three successive... Anthony Giddens' The Third Way had a far-reaching impact upon the evolution of New Labour in the UK, and upon left of centre policies in many o...

Politics and Sociology in the Thought of Max Weber
ISBN: 9780745670966 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book provides an interpretation of one of the key aspects of Max Weber's work: the relationship between his political and sociological writings. Weber's sociological studies have often been treated as if they were completely separate from his political attitudes and interests, and in general his political writings have remained less well-known than his sociological work.
The book contains three main sections. The first of these analyses the principal concerns underlying Weber's political assessment of the prospective development of post-Bismarckian Germany. The second... This book provides an interpretation of one of the key aspects of Max Weber's work: the relationship between his political and sociological writings. ...

Central Problems in Social Theory: Action, Structure, and Contradiction in Social Analysis
ISBN: 9780520039759 / Angielski / Miękka / 1979 / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this new and brilliantly organized book of essays, Anthony Giddens discusses three main theoretical traditions in social science that cut across the division between Marxist and non-Marxist sociology: interpretive sociology, functionalism, and structuralism. Beginning with a critical examination of the importance of structuralism for contemporary sociology, the author develops a comprehensive account of what he calls "the theory of structuration." One of the main themes is that social theory must recognize, as it has not done hitherto, that all social actors are knowledgeable about the...

Beyond Left and Right : The Future of Radical Politics
ISBN: 9780745614397 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. How should one understand the nature and possibilities of political radicalism? The political radical is normally thought of as someone who stands on the Left, opposing backward-looking conservatism. In the 1990s, however, the Left has turned defensive, while the Right has become radical, advocating the free play of market forces no matter what obstacles of tradition or custom stand in their way. What explains such a curious twist of perspective?
