Forms of Power
ISBN: 9780745624747 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Political power is often viewed as the sole embodiment of 'social power', even while we recognize that social power manifests itself in different forms and institutional spheres. This new book by Gianfranco Poggi suggests that the three principal forms of social power - the economic, the normative/ideological and the political - are based on a group's privileged access to and control over different resources.
Against this general background, Poggi shows how various embodiments of normative/ideological and economic power have both made claims on political power (considered...

Varieties of Political Experience: Power Phenomena in Modern Society
ISBN: 9781907301759 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The management of contemporary public affairs involves many different centres of social power, engaged in complex and mutable relations, ranging from willing cooperation, to competition, to out-and-out conflict. This book emphasises the role played in these relations by political institutions in particular. Generally, these claim a special competence to authorise and regulate the activities of other institutions, but their claim is often contested by other power centres, serving different and sometimes contrasting interests. To explore those processes, the author, after identifying the nature...

The Development of the Modern State: A Sociological Introduction
ISBN: 9780804710428 / Angielski / Miękka / 1978 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The institutional features and the past and future role of the state should be a central concern of contemporary sociological and political theory, but until now they have been sadly neglected. Lately, in particular, the state's increasing involvement in the management of industrial and industrializing societies has made it even more important to understand its past development, its current activities, and the related trends in its structure and in its relation to the larger society. As a contribution to this task, Gianfranco Poggi reviews the main phases in the institutional history of the...

Money and the Modern Mind: Georg Simmel's Philosophy of Money
ISBN: 9780520075719 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A major representative of the German sociological tradition, Georg Simmel (1858-1918) has influenced social thinkers ranging from the Chicago School to Walter Benjamin. His magnum opus, The Philosophy of Money, published in 1900, is nevertheless a difficult book that has daunted many would-be readers. Gianfranco Poggi makes this important work accessible to a broader range of scholars and students, offering a compact and systematically organized presentation of its main arguments. Simmel's insights about money are as valid today as they were a hundred years ago. Poggi provides a...
