ISBN: 9781479890354 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This is the story of English Country Dance, from its 18th century roots in the English cities and countryside, to its transatlantic leap to the U.S. in the 20th century, told by not only a renowned historian but also a folk dancer, who has both immersed himself in the rich history of the folk tradition and rehearsed its steps. In City Folk, Daniel J. Walkowitz argues that the history of country and folk dancing in America is deeply intermeshed with that of political liberalism and the 'old left.' He situates folk dancing within surprisingly diverse contexts, from progressive...

Working with Class: Social Workers and the Politics of Middle-Class Identity
ISBN: 9780807847589 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Polls tell us that most Americans--whether they earn $20,000 or $200,000 a year--think of themselves as middle class. As this phenomenon suggests, "middle class" is a category whose definition is not necessarily self-evident. In this book, historian Daniel Walkowitz approaches the question of what it means to be middle class from an innovative angle. Focusing on the history of social workers--who daily patrol the boundaries of class--he examines the changed and contested meaning of the term over the last one hundred years.

ISBN: 9780822334125 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Bodily Matters explores the anti-vaccination movement that emerged in England in the late nineteenth century and early twentieth in response to government-mandated smallpox vaccination.

From its inception in 1853 until its demise in 1907, the compulsory smallpox vaccine was fiercely resisted, largely by members of the working class who interpreted it as an infringement of their rights as citizens and a violation of...
