The Schooled Society: The Educational Transformation of Global Culture
ISBN: 9780804787369 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Only 150 years ago, the majority of the world's population was largely illiterate. Today, not only do most people over fifteen have basic reading and writing skills, but 20 percent of the population attends some form of higher education. What are the effects of such radical, large-scale change? David Baker argues that the education revolution has transformed our world into a schooled society--that is, a society that is actively created and defined by education. Drawing on neo-institutionalism, The Schooled Society shows how mass education interjects itself and its ideologies...

The Worldwide Transformation of Higher Education
ISBN: 9780762314874 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Higher education worldwide, including the university and other related academic programs, is currently undergoing intensive change and transformation perhaps as no other time in its long history.

On Demand: Writing for the Market in Early Modern England
ISBN: 9780804738569 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In early modern England, while moralists railed against the theater as wasteful and depraved and inflation whittled away at the value of wages, people attended the theater in droves. On Demand draws on recent economic history and theory to account for this puzzling consumer behavior. He shows that during this period demand itself, with its massed acquisitive energies, transformed the English economy. Over the long sixteenth-century consumption burgeoned, though justifications for it lagged behind. People were in a curious predicament: they practiced consumption on a mass scale but had...
