The Divided People: Can Israel's Breakup Be Stopped?
ISBN: 9780739103258 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Divided People describes a fracturing Israel, a deeply divided state whose political system is buckling and whose society is rapidly polarizing into religious and secular camps. Written by a social scientist and drawing upon social science research, the work documents the emergence of separate social networks, residential areas, symbols, and identities--and even a split in the Hebrew language itself. Yet rather than argue for a return to the commonality of the past, Eva Etzioni-Halevy champions Israel's painful transition toward a truly multicultural society prepared to embrace diversity...

Since the attacks of September 11, 2001, the tension between civil rights and public safety has dominated public discourse. On issues ranging from racial profiling to military tribunals, Americans have had to ask whether it is possible for the United States to defend itself against terrorism without violating the values and principles that lie at the heart of its democratic order. In Rights vs. Public Safety after 9/11, some of the nation's leading legal experts and social critics confront this question head-on. The contributors offer measured, often communitarian, approaches to topics such...

Essays in Socio-Economics
ISBN: 9783642084157 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. These essays deal with various aspects of a new, rising field, socio- economics. The field is seeking to combine the variables studied by neoclassical economists with those typically studied by other social sciences. The combination is expected to provide a better understanding of economic behavior and the economy as well as society; make more reliable predictions; and be more in line with normative values we seek to uphold. The new field, though, may be less elegant mathematically and possibly less parsimonious than neoclassical economics. Some of my ideas on this subject are included in a...

Are we morally obliged to do more for our communities beyond treating everyone as endowed with basic rights? Should...

Political Unification Revisited: On Building Supranational Communities
ISBN: 9780739102732 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Can independent nations unify politically? Amitai Etzioni raised this searching question in his seminal 1965 book, Political Unification: A Comparative Study of Leaders and Forces. In this revised edition now with an extensive new introduction Etzioni convincingly argues that the experiment of collective self-determination is the only viable replacement for a perilously overloaded international system. This fascinating work debates the limitations of informal networks of governance, transnational agencies and cross-nation bonding including the grand experiment of the European Union to argue...

In this short book,...
