Hermeneutics and Social Science (Routledge Revivals): Approaches to Understanding
ISBN: 9780415582728 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Originally in 1978, this important work, by one of the leading European social theorists, is arguably the best introduction to the hermeneutic tradition as a whole. It is designed to help students of sociology and philosophy place the problems of "understanding social science" in their historical and philosophical context. It does so by presenting the major current in sociological thought as responses to the challenge of hermeneutics. The idea that true knowledge of social life can be attained only if human conduct is seen as meaningful action whose meaning is accordingly grasped has been...

Obcy u naszych drzwi
ISBN: 9788301187545 / Polski / Miękka ze skrzydełka / 2016 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Uciekają z brutalnego, ogarniętego wojnami świata i pukają do naszych drzwi – uchodźcy. Dla ludzi za drzwiami – obcy i nieproszeni goście, którzy budzą niepokój i strach. Zjawisko migracji i uchodźctwa jest częścią historycznej dynamiki i jako takie nie jest niczym nowym. Po raz pierwszy jednak mierzymy się z nim w nowej formie – nie tylko bowiem dokonuje się na ogromną skalę, lecz także rozgrywa się na naszych oczach – na ekranach telewizorów i kartach codziennej prasy, co doprowadziło ogólnospołecznej „moralnej paniki”. Kryzys uchodźczy uderza w dobre...

ISBN: 9780415573085 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 154 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Rather than contributing to the long-standing discussion about the characteristics of the society that socialism proposes to establish, this book explores the impact of the 'living utopia' of socialism on the development of modern society. It analyses the role of utopia and the role of the socialist utopia.

Etyka ponowoczesna
ISBN: 9788361182863 / Polski / Miękka / 2011 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) W „Etyce ponowoczesnej” Zygmunt Bauman wypowiedział to, co najistotniejsze dla charakteru naszych czasów: opisał naturę współczesnych zjawisk moralnych. Możliwe, że „nowoczesność” nigdy nie istniała i jest tylko konstrukcją, zwykle negatywnym antywzorem ponowoczesnego wyzwolenia. Bauman (ur. 1925), znany w świecie teoretyk i komentator ponowoczesności lub „płynnej nowoczesności”, nie głosi jednak łatwych diagnoz. Przyjmuje za fakt kres etyki kodeksowej, ale sferę moralną postrzega jako z istoty przedracjonalną i zindywidualizowaną. Nie ma to wszakże...

The Individualized Society
ISBN: 9780745625072 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) We are spurred into action by our troubles and fears; but all too often our action fails to address the true causes of our worries. When trying to make sense of our lives, we tend to blame our own failings and weaknesses for our discomforts and defeats. And in doing so, we make things worse rather than better. Reasonable beings that we are, how does this happen and why does it go on happening?
These are the questions addressed in this new book by Zygmunt Bauman - one of the most original and perceptive social thinkers writing today. For Bauman, the task of sociology is not...

Globalization: The Human Consequences
ISBN: 9780231114295 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) The word "globalization" is used to convey the hope and determination of order-making on a worldwide scale. It is trumpeted as providing more mobility--of people, capital, and information--and as being equally beneficial for everyone. With recent technological developments--most notably the Internet--globalization seems to be the fate of the world. But no one seems to be in control. As noted sociologist Zygmunt Bauman shows in this detailed history of globalization, while human affairs now take place on a global scale, we are not able to direct events; we can only watch as boundaries,...

Culture in a Liquid Modern World
ISBN: 9780745653549 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) In its original formulation, 'culture' was intended to be an agent for change, a mission undertaken with the aim of educating 'the people' by bringing the best of human thought and creativity to them. But in our contemporary liquid-modern world, culture has lost its missionary role and has become a means of seduction: it seeks no longer to enlighten the people but to seduce them. The function of culture today is not to satisfy existing needs but to create new ones, while simultaneously ensuring that existing needs remain permanently unfulfilled. Culture today likens itself to a giant...

This Is Not a Diary
ISBN: 9780745655697 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) This is not a diary: while these observations were recorded in autumn 2010 and spring 2011 in the form of dated entries, they are not a personal reflection but an attempt to capture signs of our times in their movement - possibly at birth, at a stage when they are still barely perceptible, and in any case before they have matured into common, all too familiar forms, escaping our attention due to their banality. Some will perhaps settle in our daily life for a long time to come, others will fade and vanish before they would otherwise have a chance to be noted, recorded and explored in depth:...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Sketches in the Theory of Culture is a remarkable work by all measures. Written by Zygmunt Bauman when he was still a professor in Poland and originally intended for publication in 1968, it was suppressed by the Polish government in the wave of repression following the protests in March of that year.

Liquid Love: On the Frailty of Human Bonds
ISBN: 9780745624884 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) This book is about the central figure of our contemporary, 'liquid modern' times - the man or woman with no bonds, and particularly with none of the fixed or durable bonds that would allow the effort of self-definition and self-assertion to come to a rest. Having no permanent bonds, the denizen of our liquid modern society must tie whatever bonds they can to engage with others, using their own wits, skill and dedication. But none of these bonds are guaranteed to last. Moreover, they must be tied loosely so that they can be untied again, quickly and as effortlessly as possible, when...

Consuming Life
ISBN: 9780745639796 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) With the advent of liquid modernity, the society of producers is transformed into a society of consumers. In this new consumer society, individuals become simultaneously the promoters of commodities and the commodities they promote. They are, at one and the same time, the merchandise and the marketer, the goods and the travelling salespeople. They all inhabit the same social space that is customarily described by the term the market.
The test they need to pass in order to acquire the social prizes they covet requires them to recast themselves as products capable of drawing attention...

Life in Fragments: Essays in Postmodern Morality
ISBN: 9780631192671 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Life in Fragments is a continuation of the themes and motifs explored in Zygmunt Bauman's acclaimed study, Postmodern Ethics (Blackwell, 1993). Described by Richard Sennett as a major event in social theory, Postmodern Ethics subverted the pieties of subversion which rule the postmodern imagination, arguing for an ethic of being with the Other, beyond the fashionable imperative of anything goes or the deconstruction of identity through difference.

The Art of Life

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) In our individualized society we are all artists of life - whether we know it or not, will it or not and like it or not, by decree of society if not by our own choice. In this society we are all expected, rightly or wrongly, to give our lives purpose and form by using our own skills and resources, even if we lack the tools and materials with which artists' studios need to be equipped for the artist's work to be conceived and executed. And we are praised or censured for the results - for what we have managed or failed to accomplish and for what we have achieved and lost.

Moral Blindness: The Loss of Sensitivity in Liquid Modernity
ISBN: 9780745662749 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) This probing inquiry into the fate of our moral sensibilities looks at how evil is no longer confined to war or to circumstances in which people are acting under extreme duress. Today it reveals itself in the everyday insensitivity to the suffering of others, the inability or refusal to understand them and casual turning away of one's gaze.

Towards a Critical Sociology (Routledge Revivals): An Essay on Commonsense and Imagination
ISBN: 9780415571647 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 126 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) For the better part of its history, sociology shared with commonsense its assumption of the 'nature-like' character of society - and consequently developed as the science of unfreedom. First published in 1976, this book outlines the historical roots and new trends of such a science.

Modernity and Ambivalence
ISBN: 9780745612423 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Modern civilization, Bauman argues, promised to make our lives understandable and open to our control. This has not happened and today we no longer believe it ever will. In this book, now available in paperback, Bauman argues that our postmodern age is the time for reconciliation with ambivalence, we must learn how to live in an incurably ambiguous world.

Collateral Damage: Social Inequalities in a Global Age
ISBN: 9780745652948 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) The term 'collateral damage' has recently been added to the vocabulary of military forces to refer to the unintended consequences of armed interventions, consequences that are unplanned but nevertheless damaging and often very costly in human and personal terms. But collateral damage is not unique to the world of armed intervention - it is also one of the most salient and striking dimensions of contemporary social inequality. The inflammable mixture of growing social inequality and the rising volume of human suffering marginalized as 'collateral' is becoming one of the most cataclysmic...
