The Death of Homo Economicus: Work, Debt and the Myth of Endless Accumulation
ISBN: 9780745399409 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For neoclassical economists, Homo economicus, or economic human, represents the ideal employee: an energetic worker bee that is a rational yet competitive decision-maker. Alternatively, one could view the concept as a cold and selfish workaholic endlessly seeking the accumulation of money and advancement--a chilling representation of capitalism. Or perhaps, as Peter Fleming argues, Homo economicus does not actually exist at all. In The Death of Homo Economicus, Fleming presents this controversial claim with the same fierce logic and perception that launched his Guardian...

FOREWORD: THIS book is a superficial account of an unsensational journey. My Warning to the Reader justifies, I think, its superficiality. It is easy to be dogmatic at a distance, and I dare say 1 could have made my half-baked conclusions on the major issues of the Far Eastern situation sound con vincing But it is one thing to bore your readers, another to mislead themj I did not like to run the risk of doing both. I have therefore kept the major Issues in the back ground The book describes in some detail what I...

Mythology of Work: How Capitalism Persists Despite Itself
ISBN: 9780745334868 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Once, work was inextricably linked to survival and self-preservation: the farmer ploughed his land so that his family could eat. In contrast, today work has slowly morphed into a painful and meaningless ritual for many, colonizing almost every part of our day, endless and inescapable.
In The Mythology of Work, Peter Fleming examines how neoliberal society uses the ritual of work--and the threat of its denial--to maintain the late capitalist class order. Work becomes a universal reference point, devoid of any moral or political worth, transforming our society into a factory that...

Contesting the Corporation: Struggle, Power and Resistance in Organizations
ISBN: 9780521169530 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In an age when large corporations dominate the economic and political landscape, it is tempting to think that their power goes largely unchecked. Originally published in 2007, Contesting the Corporation counters this view by showing that today's corporations are driven by political struggle, power plays and attempts to resist control. Building on a wide range of theoretical sources, Fleming and Spicer present an analysis of the different ways in which power operates within the modern workplace. They begin by building a theoretical perspective that synthesizes previous investigations of power...

The Miller/Romero Connection): Was Mad Max the Survivor of the Zombie Holocaust?
ISBN: 9781426972454 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. George Miller and George A Romero are both superb filmmakers. They have given fans exactly what they expect, creative, entertaining and at times horrifying films. Their visions have often been copied but never duplicated. But imitation, they say, is a form of flattery. George Miller created an almost mythical world based in a post apocalyptic holocaust future. Where knights drive supped up hotrods instead of horses and wear leather instead of armor. The line between good and bad can be as thin as the radiation in the air. George A Romero has too created a world gone mad. But, this is a world...
