What, if anything, is valid in Marx's work today, following the events of 1989 and after in Eastern Europe? The second edition of this highly regarded critical encounter with historical materialism and other major perspectives in social thought, shows how a critical theory of the advanced societies can still draw on marxism - if only sparingly - and remains an endeavour of fundamental importance in the social sciences at the present time.

The Progressive Manifesto: New Ideas for the Centre-Left
ISBN: 9780745632957 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book seeks to develop a new agenda for the centre-left.

In Defence of Sociology: Essays, Interpretations and Rejoinders
ISBN: 9780745617626 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Is there a future for sociology? To many, sociology seems to have lost its way. Born of the ideas of Auguste Comte in the nineteenth century, sociology established itself as 'the science of modernity', linked to a progressive view of history. Yet today the idea of progress has more or less collapsed; with its demise, some say, sociological thought has moved to the margins of contemporary intellectual culture.
In this book the author challenges such an interpretation, showing that sociology continues to hold a central position within the social sciences. Looking both to the past...

Today, nearly seventy years later, over 500 million people live in the member states of the European Union - a greater number than in any other political community save for China and India. The currency of the Union, the euro, is used... Winner of the 2014 European Book Prize.

Over to You, MR Brown: How Labour Can Win Again
ISBN: 9780745642239 / Angielski / Miękka / 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.

The Consequences of Modernity
ISBN: 9780804718912 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 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...

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. 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...

Politics and Sociology in the Thought of Max Weber
ISBN: 9780745670966 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 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. ...
