ISBN: 9780252028724 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Real Time, David F. Bell explores the decisive impact the accelerated movement of people and information had on the fictions of four giants of French realism - Balzac, Stendhal, Dumas, and Zola.

The most influential of these advances included the improvement of the stagecoach, the growth of road and canal networks leading to the advent of the railway, and the increasing use of mail, and of the...

Rethinking Utopia: Place, Power, Affect
ISBN: 9781138891333 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Over five hundred years since it was named, utopia remains a vital concept for understanding and challenging the world(s) we inhabit, even in or rather because of the condition of post-utopianism that supposedly permeates them. In Rethinking Utopia David M. Bell offers a diagnosis of the present through the lens of utopia and then, by rethinking the concept through engagement with utopian studies, a variety of radical theories and the need for decolonizing praxis, shows how utopianism might work within, against and beyond that which exists in order to provide us with hope for a...

The Dynamics of Connection: How Evolution and Biology Create Caregiving and Attachment
ISBN: 9780739143520 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Dynamics of Connection: How Evolution and Biology Create Caregiving and Attachment describes the logic of giving, love, trust, and nurturance. Bowlby's theory of attachment provides an excellent starting point for an explanation of nurturance, but there are some limitations in this theory, especially its tendency to minimize the caregiving side of the relationship. The book builds on and extends Bowlby's theory by examining the evolutionary evidence for both attachment and caregiving, the origins of which can be seen in the earliest mammals. It describes neurobiological research that has...

Cult of the Nation in France: Inventing Nationalism, 1680-1800
ISBN: 9780674012370 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Using eighteenth-century France as a case study, David Bell offers an important new argument about the origins of nationalism. Before the eighteenth century, the very idea of nation-building--a central component of nationalism--did not exist. During this period, leading French intellectual and political figures came to see perfect national unity as a critical priority, and so sought ways to endow all French people with the same language, laws, customs, and values. The period thus gave rise to the first large-scale nationalist program in history. The revolutionaries hoped that patriotism and...

Enemies of the American Way: Identity and Presidential Foreign Policymaking
ISBN: 9781628924053 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Why do presidents, when facing the same circumstances, focus on different threats to national security? Enemies of the American Way attempts to answer this question by investigating the role of identity in presidential decision making.
The book explains why presidents disagree on what constitute a threat to the US security via the study of three US presidencies in the 19th century (Cleveland, Harrison and McKinley). These case studies help draw a theory of threat identification to understand how and why specific actions are taken, including the decision to wage war. Using a...
