Crippled Justice: The History of Modern Disability Policy in the Workplace
ISBN: 9780226616605 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. "Crippled Justice," the first comprehensive intellectual history of disability policy in the workplace from World War II to the present, explains why American employers and judges, despite the Americans with Disabilities Act, have been so resistant to accommodating the disabled in the workplace. Ruth O'Brien traces the origins of this resistance to the postwar disability policies inspired by physicians and psychoanalysts that were based on the notion that disabled people should accommodate society rather than having society accommodate them.
O'Brien shows how the remnants of postwar... "Crippled Justice," the first comprehensive intellectual history of disability policy in the workplace from World War II to the present, explains why ...

Voices from the Edge: Narratives about the Americans with Disabilities ACT
ISBN: 9780195156874 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Fear, rage, courage, discrimination. These are facts of everyday life for many Americans with disabilities. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), has made working, traveling, and communicating easier for many individuals. But what recourse do individuals have when enforcement of the law is ambiguous or virtually nonexistent? And how will its changing definition affect individuals' lives-as well as their legal actions-in the future? What is life like in post-ADA America? Voices from the Edge seeks to challenge the mindset of those who would deny equal protection to the...

Bodies in Revolt: Gender, Disability, and a Workplace Ethic of Care
ISBN: 9780415945349 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Bodies in Revolt argues that the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) could humanize capitalism by turning employers into care-givers, creating an ethic of care in the workplace. Unlike other feminists, Ruth O'Brien bases her ethics not on benevolence, but rather on self-preservation. She relies on Deleuze's and Guttari's interpretation of Spinoza and Foucault's conception of corporeal resistance to show how a workplace ethic that is neither communitarian nor individualistic can be based upon the rallying cry "one for all and all for one."

Out of Many, One: Obama and the Third American Political Tradition
ISBN: 9780226041629 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Feared by conservatives and embraced by liberals when he entered the White House, Barack Obama has since been battered by criticism from both sides.In "Out of Many, One," Ruth O Brien explains why. We are accustomed to seeing politicians supporting either a minimalist state characterized by unfettered capitalism and individual rights or a relatively strong welfare state and regulatory capitalism. Obama, O Brien argues, represents the values of a lesser-known third tradition in American political thought that defies the usual left-right categorization.

Bodies in Revolt : Gender, Disability, and a Workplace Ethic of Care
ISBN: 9780415945332 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. By defining a disability as what a person cannot do - rather than in terms of a specific medical condition or disease - The ADA has tranformed disability into a non-essential, universal, ever-evolving, socially constructed category. Bodies in Revolt analyzes the ADA's potential to make employers take into account the individuality of their employees, showing how an important branch of feminist theory - an ethic of care - could be studied in a new location: the workplace. Also, if Congress amends the ADA, making it less vulnerable to the conservative federal judiciary's discretion, the...

The Case for Big Government
ISBN: 9780691146201 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Political conservatives have long believed that the best government is a small government. But if this were true, noted economist Jeff Madrick argues, the nation would not be experiencing stagnant wages, rising health care costs, increasing unemployment, and concentrations of wealth for a narrow elite. In this perceptive and eye-opening book, Madrick proves that an engaged government--a big government of high taxes and wise regulations--is necessary for the social and economic answers that Americans desperately need in changing times. He shows that the big governments of past eras fostered... Political conservatives have long believed that the best government is a small government.
