The Oriental, the Ancient and the Primitive: Systems of Marriage and the Family in the Pre-Industrial Societies of Eurasia
ISBN: 9780521367615 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 564 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Continuing the comparative survey of pre-industrial family formation undertaken in The Development of Family and Marriage in Europe (1983), Professor Goody looks in depth at kinship practice in Asia. His findings cause him to question many traditional assumptions about the "primitive" East, and he suggests that, in contrast to pre-colonial Africa, kinship practice in Asia has much in common with that prevailing in parts of pre-industrial Europe. Goody examines the transmission of productive and other property in relation both to the prevailing political economy and to family and ideological...

Jack Goody's new book explores the history of social anthropology as an emergent discipline in the interwar years.

Goody focuses on Britain and Africa, and draws on his own wide-ranging personal fieldwork experience.

The East in the West
ISBN: 9780521556736 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The East in the West reassesses Western views of Asia, which much European history and social theory has seen as "static" or "backward." Jack Goody challenges these Eurocentric assumptions, including the notion of a special Western rationality, and differences in mercantile activity. Other factors "inhibiting" the East's development, such as the role of the family, have also been greatly exaggerated, and have contributed to a misunderstanding of both Eastern and Western history and society. This wide-ranging and provocative book begins to redress the balance.

The Theft of History
ISBN: 9781107683556 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In The Theft of History Jack Goody builds on his own previous work to extend further his highly influential critique of what he sees as the pervasive Eurocentric or occidentalist biases of so much western historical writing, and the consequent 'theft' by the West of the achievements of other cultures in the invention of (notably) democracy, capitalism, individualism and love. Goody, one of the world's most distinguished anthropologists, raises questions about theorists, historians and methodology, and proposes a new comparative approach to cross-cultural analysis which allows for more scope...

ISBN: 9780745631912 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This important new book investigates how the West attained its current position of economic and social advantage. In an incisive historical analysis, Jack Goody examines when and why Europe (and Anglo-America) started to outstrip all other continents in socio-economic growth. challenges assumptions about long-term European supremacy of a 'cultural' kind, as was a feature of many theories current in social science. He argues that the divergence came with the Industrial Revolution and that the earlier bourgeois revolution of the sixteenth century was but one among many Eurasia-wide expressions...

The Social Organisation of the Lo Wiili
ISBN: 9781138584808 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 142 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Originally published in 1967 (second edition) presents an account of the life and social organisation of the Lo Wiili of the Haute Volta and Ghana. Chapters on the geographic and ethnographic background and economic system are followed by a detailed analysis of Lo Wiili social organisation which in its broad outlines is typical of the general area. Of particular theoretical interest, however, is the co-existence in the one society of both patriclans and matriclans and the way in which the Lo Wiili see themselves not as a boundary-maintaining group ('tribe') but define themselves by...

Cooking, Cuisine and Class: A Study in Comparative Sociology
ISBN: 9780521286961 / Angielski / Miękka / 1982 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The preparation, serving and eating of food are common features of all human societies, and have been the focus of study for numerous anthropologists - from Sir James Frazer onwards - from a variety of theoretical and empirical perspectives. It is in the context of this previous anthropological work that Jack Goody sets his own observations on cooking in West Africa. He criticises those approaches which overlook the comparative historical dimension of culinary, and other, cultural differences that emerge in class societies, both of which elements he particularly emphasises in this book. The...

The Eurasian Miracle
ISBN: 9780745647944 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The idea of long-term European dominance is characteristic of most evolutionary theories of human culture and society in the nineteenth century. It was commonly believed that there was a natural progression from Antiquity through Feudalism to Capitalism which could not have taken place elsewhere. Today there are many who still believe that this progression was part of a European miracle that underlay the rise to global supremacy of the West.
In this short book Jack Goody systematically dismantles this Eurocentric view of the world. He argues that we need to look, not for a... The idea of long-term European dominance is characteristic of most evolutionary theories of human culture and society in the nineteenth century. It wa...

The Domestication of the Savage Mind
ISBN: 9780521292429 / Angielski / Miękka / 1977 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Current theories and views on the differences in the 'mind' of human societies depend very much on a dichotomy between 'advanced' and 'primitive', or between 'open' and 'closed', or between 'domesticated' and 'savage', that is to say, between one of a whole variety of 'we-they' distinctions. Professor Goody argues that such an approach prevents any serious discussion of the mechanisms leading to long-term changes in the cognitive processes of human cultures or any adequate explanation of the changes in 'traditional' societies that are taking place in the world around us. In this book he...
