The Progressive Manifesto: New Ideas for the Centre-Left
ISBN: 9780745632940 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 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 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.

Beyond Left and Right : The Future of Radical Politics
ISBN: 9780745614397 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 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?

The Third Way and Its Critics
ISBN: 9780745624495 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 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.

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...

Over to You, MR Brown: How Labour Can Win Again
ISBN: 9780745642222 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 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...

A "United States of Europe," Winston Churchill proposed in 1946, could "as if by a miracle transform" that "turbulent and mighty continent."

Central Problems in Social Theory: Action, Structure, and Contradiction in Social Analysis
ISBN: 9780520039759 / Angielski / Miękka / 1979 / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 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...

Transformation of Intimacy: Sexuality, Love, and Eroticism in Modern Societies
ISBN: 9780804722148 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 224 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 characteristics of...

The Third Way

The idea of finding a 'third way' in politics has been widely discussed over recent months - not only in the UK, but in the US, Continental Europe and Latin America. But what is the third way? Supporters of the notion haven't been able to agree, and critics deny the possibility altogether. Anthony Giddens shows that developing a third way is not only a possibility but a necessity in modern politics.

ISBN: 9780745629919 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. New Labour is back in power - where now? What should the party's agenda be? How should the centre-left react to a changed external world marked by economic downturn, protests against globalization and an unstable international order?
Anthony Giddens argues that to answer these questions, and assess the progress Labour has made, we must take a comparative perspective. Breaking with the insularity that has marked much political debate in the UK, Giddens draws extensively on the experience of social democrats in other countries. All centre-left parties...

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. ...
