Emotional Bureaucracy
ISBN: 9781412814935 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study casts doubt on the classic model of bureaucracy and its relevance to developing areas. In particular, Hodder challenges the Weberian distinction between the role of emotion and a modern bureaucracy's impersonal and rational qualities. He suggests that bureaucracies function differently, and offers a different perspective. The focus is the Philippines, but Hodder's conclusions are applicable to other developing areas. Two main themes are discussed. The first explores the classic Weberian model of bureaucracy. The second concerns ways of thinking about the social features of...

Between Two Worlds: Society, Politics, and Business in the Philippines
ISBN: 9780700716432 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book considers the tensions and complementarities between two different attitudes towards social relationships - on the one hand, the attitude aspired to in the West, which emphasises individualism, institutional probity, and the rule of law, and which regards social relationships as ideals or absolutes; and, on the other hand, the attitude often found in Asia, where loyalties based on kinship, local networks, and places of origin are vitally important, and where social relationships, institutions and practices are often material for manipulation and the pursuit of ambition.

In developed societies this has meant a growing Puritanism interspersed with bouts...
