Worlding: Identity, Media, and Imagination in a Digital Age
ISBN: 9781612052311 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Worlding brings ideas about "virtual" places and societies together with perceptions about the "real" world in an era of mounting global uncertainty. As mass media and the Internet consume ever-increasing portions of our lives, are we becoming disengaged from face-to-face human interaction and real-world concerns? Or is the virtual world actually bringing people closer together and making them more involved with social issues? Worlding argues that the "virtual" and the "real" are profoundly interconnected, often in ways we don't fully appreciate. Drawing on sociology, cultural studies,...

This text addresses the loss of faith in conventional party politics, and argues for new ways of thinking about diversity, liberty, and civic responsibility.

In recent years, debates over culture and education have entered the public consciousness as never before.

Everyday Culture: Finding and Making Meaning in a Changing World
ISBN: 9781594514265 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Everyday Culture examines the confluence of cultural and material possibility--the bringing together of thought and action in daily life. David Trend argues that an informed and invigorated citizenry can help reverse patterns of dehumanization and social control. The impetus for Everyday Culture can be described in the observation by Raymond Williams that the "culture is ordinary," and that the fabric of meanings that inform and organize everyday life often go undervalued and unexamined. Everyday Culture shares with thinkers like Williams the conviction that it is precisely the ordinariness...

Elsewhere in America: The Crisis of Belonging in Contemporary Culture
ISBN: 9781138654440 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Americans think of their country as a welcoming place where everyone has equal opportunity. Yet historical baggage and anxious times can restrain these possibilities. Newcomers often find that civic belonging comes with strings attached riddled with limitations or legally punitive rites of passage. For those already here, new challenges to civic belonging emerge on the basis of belief, behavior, or heritage. This book uses the term "elsewhere" in describing conditions that exile so many citizens to "some other place" through prejudice, competition, or discordant belief. Yet, in another...

The Origins of Modern Spain
ISBN: 9781107690820 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Originally published in 1934, this book presents a highly readable account of the intellectual development of Spain following the 'Glorious Revolution' of 1868. The text is based around a series of intimate, personal sketches of the reformers and educators of the generation of 1868, but also deals extensively with broader cultural contexts as well. Politics is avoided where possible, and questions of the monarchical or republican reforms of government, of clerical or lay teaching in schools, are measured by their practical results on education in Spain, not by their theoretical implications...
