The New Public: Professional Communication and the Means of Social Influence
ISBN: 9780521481465 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Professional specialists have come to dominate public communication, and the modern public of the Enlightenment has been replaced by a "New Public," subject to mass persuasion through systematic advertising, lobbying, and other forms of media manipulation. Leon Mayhew examines this sociological development in terms of discourse and social influence, offering an original theory that bridges Talcott Parsons and JUrgen Habermas. He concludes that the present social order is unstable because good-faith, two-way discourse has been undermined.

The New Deal shaped our nation's politics for decades, and was seen by many as tantamount to the -American Way- itself. Now, in this superb compact history, Eric Rauchway offers an informed account of the New Deal and the Great Depression, illuminating its successes and failures.
Rauchway first describes how the roots of the Great Depression lay in America's post-war economic policies--described as -laissez-faire with a vengeance---which in effect isolated our nation from the world economy just when the world needed the United States most. He shows how the magnitude of the resulting... The New Deal shaped our nation's politics for decades, and was seen by many as tantamount to the -American Way- itself.
