Being Human: The Problem of Agency
ISBN: 9780521795647 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The human subject is under threat from postmodernist thinking that has declared the "Death of God" and the "Death of Man." This book is a revindication of the concept of humanity, rejecting contemporary social theory that seeks to diminish human properties and powers. Archer argues that being human depends on an interaction with the real world in which practice takes primacy over language in the emergence of human self-consciousness, thought, emotionality and personal identity--all of which are prior to, and more basic than, our acquisition of a social identity.

Engaging with the World: Agency, Institutions, Historical Formations
ISBN: 9780415687102 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This title reflects the general theme of the 2010 IACR annual conference that was held in Padova, Italy, the aim of which was to provide a fresh view on some cultural and structural changes involving Western societies after the world economic crisis of 2008, from the point of view of Critical Realism. Global society is often regarded as disrupting identities and blurring boundaries, one which entails giving up ideas of structure and fixity. Globalization supposedly introducesaa "liquid" era of fluidity where everything is possible, and anything goes. Nevertheless, its current dynamics are...

Realist Social Theory: The Morphogenetic Approach
ISBN: 9780521484428 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Margaret Archer develops here her morphogenetic approach, heralded in Culture and Agency (CUP, 1988), and applies it to the problem of structure and agency, that is, how we both shape society and are shaped by it. Her aim is to capture the interplay between these two processes rather than collapse them into one, as has been the case with the traditional competing individualist and collectivist methodologies. The morphogenetic approach offers a new understanding of social change and poses a direct challenge to Giddens' structuration theory.

Social Morphogenesis
ISBN: 9789400761278 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 231 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The rate of social change has speeded up in the last three decades, but how do we explain this? This volume ventures what the generative mechanism is that produces such rapid change and discusses how this differs from late Modernity. Contributors examine if an intensification of morphogenesis (positive feedback that results in a change in social form) and a corresponding reduction in morphostasis (negative feedback that restores or reproduces the form of the social order) best captures the process involved. This volume resists proclaiming a new social formation as so many books written by... The rate of social change has speeded up in the last three decades, but how do we explain this?

Making Our Way Through the World: Human Reflexivity and Social Mobility
ISBN: 9780521696937 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How do we reflect upon ourselves and our concerns in relation to society, and vice versa? Human reflexivity works through 'internal conversations' using language, but also emotions, sensations and images. Most people acknowledge this 'inner-dialogue' and can report upon it. However, little research has been conducted on 'internal conversations' and how they mediate between our ultimate concerns and the social contexts we confront. In this book, Margaret Archer argues that reflexivity is progressively replacing routine action in late modernity, shaping how ordinary people make their way...

Transcendence: Critical Realism and God
ISBN: 9780415336161 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Atheism as a belief does not have to present intellectual credentials within academia. Yet to hold beliefs means giving reasons for doing so, ones which may be found wanting. Instead, atheism is the automatic default setting within the academic world. Conversely, religious belief confronts a double standard. Religious believers are not permitted to make truth claims but are instead forced to present their beliefs as part of one language game amongst many. Religious truth claims are expected to satisfy empiricist criteria of evidence but when they fail, as they must, religious belief...

Generative Mechanisms Transforming the Social Order
ISBN: 9783319362465 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This volume examines how generative mechanisms emerge in the social order and their consequences. It does so in the light of finding answers to the general question posed in this book series: Will Late Modernity be replaced by a social formation that could be called Morphogenic Society? This volume clarifies what a 'generative mechanism' is, to achieve a better understanding of their social origins, and to delineate in what way such mechanisms exert effects within a current social formation, either stabilizing it or leading to changes potentially replacing it . The book explores... This volume examines how generative mechanisms emerge in the social order and their consequences. It does so in the light of finding answers... |

Structure, Agency and the Internal Conversation
ISBN: 9780521535977 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A central question of social theory is: How do society's objective features influence its members to reproduce or transform society through their actions? This volume examines how objective social conditioning is mediated by the subjective reflexivity of individuals. On the basis of a series of in-depth interviews, Margaret Archer identifies the mediatory mechanism as "internal conversations" that are expressed in forms governing agents' responses to social conditioning, their individual patterns of social mobility, and whether or not they contribute to social stability or change.

Conversations About Reflexivity
ISBN: 9780415558525 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. " Reflexivity" is defined as the regular exercise of the mental ability, shared by all normal people, to consider themselves in relation to their (social) contexts and vice versa. In addition to this sociological interest, it allows us to hold idle or trivial internal conversations. Focussing fully on this phenomenon, this book discusses the three main questions associated with this subject in detail. Where does the ability to be "reflexive" comes from? What part do our internal reflexive deliberations play in designing the courses of action we take: subordinate to habitual action or not? Is...
