It is a book addressed to sociologists and philosophers, to students of urban life, modern languages, cultural studies and the visual arts.
Alongside the Enlightenment has emerged another modernity. This second modernity has - in opposition to the Enlightenment rationality of progress, order, homogeneity and cognition - initiated a different rationality of uncertainty, transience, experiment, and the unknowable. This second, this other modernity, is present in notions of 'difference' and 'reflexivity'... This book is Lash's most comprehensive statement in social and cultural theory.

Recognition and Difference: Politics, Identity, Multiculture
ISBN: 9780761949879 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Are there any cultural universals left? Does multiculturalism inevitably involve a slide into moral relativism? This timely and insightful book examines questions of politics and identity in the age of multicultures. It draws together the contribution of outstanding contributors such as Fraser, Honneth, O'Neill, Bauman, Lister, Gilroy and De Swann to explore how difference and multiculturalism take on the arguments of universalist humanism. The approach taken derives from the traditions of cultural sociology and cultural studies rather than political science and philosophy.

Intensive Culture: Social Theory, Religion and Contemporary Capitalism
ISBN: 9781412945165 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Contemporary culture, today's capitalism - our global information society - is ever-expanding-- is ever more "extensive." And yet we seem to be experiencing a parallel phenomenon which can only be characterized as "intensive." This book is dedicated to the study of such intensive culture. While extensive culture is a culture of the same: a culture of fixed "equivalence"; intensive culture is a culture of "difference," of "in-equivalence" - the singular. Intensities generate what we encounter. They are virtuals or possibilities, always in process and always in movement. Lash carefully...

In this thought-provoking new book, Anthony Smith analyses key debates between historians and social scientists on the role of nations and nationalism in history. In a wide-ranging analysis of the work of historians, sociologists, political scientists and others, he argues that there are three key issues which have shaped debates in this field: first, the nature and origin of nations and nationalism; second, the antiquity or modernity of nations and nationalism; and third, the role of nations and nationalism in historical, and especially recent, social change.Anthony Smith provides...

Modernity and Identity
ISBN: 9780631175865 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Modernity and Identity is a groundbreaking collective work which announces a radical new departure within contemporary debates on modernism and postmodernism.
While dominant conceptions of both modernism and postmodernism are centered around motions of statis and fixity, for most of the otherwise quite diverse writers in this book, modernity is a matter of movement, of flux, of change and of unpredictability. Modernity and postmodernity are shown to mean, not the 'end of the subject' but the transformation and creation of new forms of subjectivity. Anthropological...
