Beyond Ebonics: Linguistic Pride and Racial Prejudice
ISBN: 9780195152890 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

God and the Green Divide: Religious Environmentalism in Black and White
ISBN: 9780520291164 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 205 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. American environmentalism historically has been associated with the interests of white elites. Yet religious leaders in the twenty-first century have helped instill concern about the earth among groups diverse in religion, race, ethnicity, and class. How did that happen and what are the implications? Building on scholarship that provides theological and ethical resources to support the "greening" of religion, God and the Green Divide examines religious environmentalism as it actually happens in the daily lives of urban Americans. Baugh demonstrates how complex dynamics related to race,...

The Methodology of Herbert Blumer
ISBN: 9780521382465 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Methodology of Herbert Blumer is a comprehensive critical account of the contributions of this important American sociologist to the methodology of social research. In a close reading of Blumer's texts, the author charts the development of Blumer's thinking, revealing a tension between an essentially realist ontology and Blumer's emphasis on the relationship of theory to methodology. The author describes Blumer's conception of methodology as a self-reflective exercise in which the principles of scientific inquiry are developed and criticized, and not merely as a matter of technique....
