The Divided People: Can Israel's Breakup Be Stopped?
ISBN: 9780739103258 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 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...

Political Unification Revisited: On Building Supranational Communities
ISBN: 9780739102732 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 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...

The Elite Connection: Problems and Potential of Western Democracy
ISBN: 9780745610689 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Designed as a textbook for courses in political theory, political sociology and comparative politics, and as a contribution in its own right, this book explores the role of elite relations as a key to understanding democracy.
Following a critical review of the literature on classes, democracy and elites, the author argues that although Western democracy is not governed by the people' and has not created equality, it is unique in that (more than any other regime) it has generated a relative separation of power holders, or a relative autonomy of elites and sub-elites in the...

Law and Society in a Populist Age: Balancing Individual Rights and the Common Good
ISBN: 9781529200256 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Amitai Etzioni, one of the most respected thinkers in the US, argues for a new liberal communitarian approach as an effective response to populism. This recognizes that different members of the society have differing values, interests, and needs that cannot be fully reconciled to legislation in a populist age. The book considers the core challenge in a variety of contexts, including national security versus privacy, private sector responsibility, freedom of the press, campaign finance reform, regulatory law and the legal status of terrorists. Thus the book offers a timely discussion of key...

Rights vs. Public Safety After 9/11: America in the Age of Terrorism
ISBN: 9780742527553 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. 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...

Law in a New Key: Essays on Law and Society
ISBN: 9781610270441 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A book for thoughtful readers--and not particularly lawyers or scholars of law and society--who are engaged in the issues of the day and want something other than "easy" answers from the right and left. Most issues of law and social policy can be understood better through a lens that balances rights and interests--and protects all of us while protecting each of us--says renowned communitarian sociologist Amitai Etzioni in his latest of 30 books. In Law in a New Key, Etzioni addresses hot-bed issues of terrorism, drone warfare, airport security and scanners, government surveillance, DNA banks,...
