Categories and Contexts: Anthropological and Historical Studies in Critical Demography
ISBN: 9780199270576 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Throughout its history as a social science, demography has been associated with an exclusively quantitative orientation for studying social problems. As a result, demographers tend to analyze population issues scientifically through sets of fixed social categories that are divorced from dynamic relationships and local contexts and processes. This volume questions these fixed categories in two ways. First, it examines the historical and political circumstances in which such categories had their provenance, and, second, it reassesses their uncritical applications over space and time in a...

ISBN: 9780521149327 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 468 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) What did sex mean for ordinary people before the sexual revolution of the 1960s and 1970s, who were often pitied by later generations as repressed, unfulfilled and full of moral anxiety?

Fertility, Class and Gender in Britain, 1860-1940
ISBN: 9780521343435 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 726 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book examines the dramatic fall in family size that occurred in Britain between 1860 and 1940. It overturns current thinking by showing how much variety there was in the occupational patterns of falling fertility. There are entirely new and surprising findings: births were widely spaced from early in marriage; and sexual abstinence by married couples was far more important than previously imagined. This study uniquely integrates the fields of demographic, feminist and labor with intellectual and political history, and will be of interest to all historians, and social and policy...

After the Virus: Lessons from the Past for a Better Future
ISBN: 9781009005203 / Angielski / Miękka / 2021 / 444 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Why was the UK so unprepared for the pandemic, suffering one of the highest death rates and worst economic contractions of the major world economies in 2020? Hilary Cooper and Simon Szreter reveal the deep roots of our vulnerability and set out a powerful manifesto for change post-Covid-19. They argue that our commitment to a flawed neoliberal model and the associated disinvestment in our social fabric left the UK dangerously exposed and unable to mount an effective response. This is not at all what made Britain great. The long history of the highly innovative universal welfare system...
