The development of an international substantive environmental right has long been a contested issue.

The book analyses not only traditional international environmental law and human rights law but also the development...

Brains/Practices/Relativism: Social Theory After Cognitive Science
ISBN: 9780226817392 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Brains/Practices/Relativism presents the first major rethinking of social theory in light of cognitive science. Stephen P. Turner focuses especially on connectionism, which views learning as a process of adaptation to input that, in turn, leads to patterns of response distinct to each individual. This means that there is no common server from which people download shared frameworks that enable them to cooperate or communicate. Therefore, argues Turner, practices - in the sense that the term is widely used in the social sciences and humanities - is a myth, and so are the cultures that are...

Max Weber: The Lawyer as Social Thinker aims to relate the categories of Weber's social thinking to the intellectual context of legal thinking and theory in which he was educated. Its interpretive aim is to show how knowledge of these relations illuminates our understanding of Weber's own intentions. By comparing Weber's social theory of the teleological kind favoured by his contemporaries, which sought to identify social purposes and their effects and realization in history, but rather to radically undermine the project of teleological social theory by replacing categories of description...

Sociological Explanation as Translation
ISBN: 9780521297738 / Angielski / Miękka / 1980 / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. First published in 1980, this book examines the nature of sociological explanation. The tactics of interpretive sociology have often remained obscure because of confusion over the nature of the evidence for interpretation and the nature of decisions among alternative interpretations. In providing an account of the problem of interpretive sociological claims, the author argues that there is rationality to interpretation. He also presents a fresh view of the relationship between qualitative and statistical claims and shows their complementary character. Dr. Turner's lucid and comprehensive...

ISBN: 9780521567534 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Max Weber is indubitably one of the very greatest figures in the history of the social sciences, the source of seminal concepts such as "the Protestant Ethic" and "modernity."

In this Cambridge Companion a very distinguished international team of contributors introduces Weber's thought, examines some of the major controversies that have erupted, and shows how the intellectual issues Weber raised have developed since he wrote.

The Social Theory of Practices: Tradition, Tacit Knowledge and Prepositions
ISBN: 9780745613727 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book presents the first analysis and critique of the idea of practice as it has developed in the various theoretical traditions of the social sciences and the humanities. The concept of a practice, understood broadly as a tacit possession that is 'shared' by and the same for different people, has a fatal difficulty, the author argues. This object must in some way be transmitted, 'reproduced', in Bourdieu's famous phrase, in different persons. But there is no plausible mechanism by which such a process occurs. The historical uses of the concept, from Durkheim to Kripke's version of...

The Politics of Expertise
ISBN: 9781138929630 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 338 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book collects case studies and theoretical papers on expertise, focusing on four major themes: legitimation, the aggregation of knowledge, the distribution of knowledge and the distribution of power. It focuses on the institutional means by which the distribution of knowledge and the distribution of power are connected, and how the problems of aggregating knowledge and legitimating it are solved by these structures. The radical novelty of this approach is that it places the traditional discussion of expertise in democracy into a much larger framework of knowledge and power relations,...

Max Weber
ISBN: 9781138155015 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is the first account of the way in which Weber appropriated and modified sources in the legal tradition, in which he was trained, to construct his sociology. It leads directly to a new understanding of Weber's intent and his relations to the tradition of social and political theory. the book takes the reader into the heart of Weber's conceptualizations of action and social science, without ever giving the impression that these are rarefied and marginal issues. This is an important book for understanding the significance of one of the key sociologist's of the twentieth century.
