ISBN: 9780199828029 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Life for emerging adults is vastly different today than it was for their counterparts even a generation ago. Young people are waiting longer to marry, to have children, and to choose a career direction. As a result, they enjoy more freedom, opportunities, and personal growth than ever before.

To Flourish or Destruct: A Personalist Theory of Human Goods, Motivations, Failure, and Evil
ISBN: 9780226231952 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In his 2010 book What Is a Person?, Christian Smith argued that sociology had for too long neglected this fundamental question. Prevailing social theories, he wrote, do not adequately capture our deep subjective experience as persons, crucial dimensions of the richness of our own lived lives, what thinkers in previous ages might have called our souls or hearts. Building on Smith s previous work, To Flourish or Destruct examines the motivations intrinsic to this subjective experience: Why do people do what they do? How can we explain the activity that gives rise to all... In his 2010 book What Is a Person?, Christian Smith argued that sociology had for too long neglected this fundamental question.

Teenagers feel good about the congregations...

The Secular Revolution: Power, Interests, and Conflict in the Secularization of American Public Life
ISBN: 9780520235618 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Sociologists, historians, and other social observers have long considered the secularization of American public life over the past hundred and thirty years to be an inevitable and natural outcome of modernization. This groundbreaking work rejects this view and fundamentally rethinks the historical and theoretical causes of the secularization of American public life between 1870 and 1930. Christian Smith and his team of contributors boldly argue that the declining authority of religion was not the by-product of modernization, but rather the intentional achievement of cultural and intellectual...
