A Just Energy Transition: Getting Decarbonisation Right in a Time of Crisis
ISBN: 9781529220957 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. To reduce emissions and address climate change, we need to invest in renewables and rapidly decarbonise our energy networks.

In doing so, this book proposes a different type of energy transition. One that...

A Cultural History of Color in the Modern Age covers the period 1920 to the present, a time of extraordinary developments in colour science, philosophy, art, design and technologies.

Faucault and Political Reason: Liberalism, Neo-Liberalism, and Rationalities of Government
ISBN: 9780226038261 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Despite the enormous influence of Michel Foucault in gender studies, social theory, and cultural studies, his work has been relatively neglected in the study of politics.

These twelve essays provide a critical introduction to Foucault's work on politics, exploring its relevance to past and current thinking about liberal and neo-liberal forms...
