Eli Ginzberg: The Economist as a Public Intellectual
ISBN: 9780765801326 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The world of Eli Ginzberg can readily be thought of as a triptych-a career in three parts. In his early years, Ginzberg's work was dedicated to understanding the history of economics, from Adam Smith to C. Wesley Mitchell, and placing that understanding in what might well be considered economic ethnography. His studies took him on travels from Wales in the United Kingdom to California in the United States. For example, the poignant account of Welsh miners in an era of economic depression and technological change remains a landmark work. His report of a cross country trip taken in the first...

Veblen was, in the final analysis, an anthropologist of America as an advanced culture, as much a figure of the... Thorstein Veblen has a place of honor reserved for truly important figures.

The War Game: Studies of the New Civilian Militarists
ISBN: 9781412851817 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. War gaming has become a characteristic feature of modern life. From amateur clubs to professional academicians playing the war game in the company of military circles, we have come up against the phenomenon of the "robotization" of human life. Irving Louis Horowitz argues that those who protest the idea that war is a game do so on moral grounds that leave unanswered tough questions: What is the alternative to playing the game? What will become of us if we allow the opponent to become the better "player" in an all-or-nothing game of extinction? Horowitz provides answers in a logical manner...

ISBN: 9781412810654 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 347 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Intellectual activity in the twentieth century took place largely under the banner of science and society. As the new millennium develops, it is becoming evident that science and society are not words that represent an unmitigated good, nor for that matter, do they exhaust what is new in the human condition. Past writing on the theme of culture has emphasized the growth and expansion of human capabilities. Recent use of the term "civilization" has placed great emphasis on the fall from grace of human beings. The use of both terms is rapidly changing. Culture and Civilization develops critical...

ISBN: 9781412811101 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The linkage of politics and technology is now the driving momentum in communication. Publishers are now part of the astonishing transformation of the slow to the instant. From twitters to bloggers, the communication of ideas can now be accomplished in a matter of minutes, not weeks, months, or even years. Horowitz believes that at its best, information technology can be harnessed to facilitate the expression of democratic thought. In providing better access to production and technology, there is great hope to liberate humankind from ignorance and ideology--and imagination is what the...

The Long Night of Dark Intent: A Half Century of Cuban Communism
ISBN: 9781412808798 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 622 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Cuban Revolution of 1959 was a benchmark of triumph and a harbinger of tragedy to come. Rather than herald a new era of Cuba joining the world community of nations as a paragon of democracy as many fervently hoped and believed it would, it became instead a new stage in authoritarian rule in the Western hemisphere. For more than a half century since then Cuba has been defined by the capacity of a single family to command and determine the fate of a nation--and to do so with a minimum of opposition. Incredibly, even those professing adhesion to democratic norms have been ready to... The Cuban Revolution of 1959 was a benchmark of triumph and a harbinger of tragedy to come.
