In a world... START-UP NATION addresses the trillion dollar question: How is it that Israel-- a country of 7.1 million, only 60 years old, surrounded by enemies, in...

Whose Millennium? Theirs or Ours?
ISBN: 9780853459439 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "Magisterial in its historical sweep, fiercely democratic in its vision, Whose Millennium? is the thinking person's 'bridge to the 21st century.' There is an alternative to rampant inequality and the corruptions of power, and-ever so modestly and persuasively-Daniel Singer points the way." This visionary book challenges the chorus of resignation-the notion that there is no alternative, that profit is the best relationship between people, and that the market guarantees democracy. Daniel Singer insists that a more free and egalitarian society can be won,...

The Social Value of Drug Addicts: Uses of the Useless
ISBN: 9781611321180 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Drug users are typically portrayed as worthless slackers, burdens on society, and just plain useless--culturally, morally, and economically. By contrast, this book argues that the social construction of some people as useless is in fact extremely useful to other people. Leading medical anthropologists Merrill Singer and J. Bryan Page analyze media representations, drug policy, and underlying social structures to show what industries and social sectors benefit from the criminalization, demonization, and even popular glamorization of addicts. Synthesizing a broad range of key literature and...
