Anti-Abortion Activism in the UK: Ultra-sacrificial Motherhood, Religion and Reproductive Rights in the Public Sphere
ISBN: 9781839093999 / Angielski / Twarda / 2022 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Drawing from extensive ethnographic research on abortion debates in public spaces, this book explores the beliefs, motivations and practices of UK anti-abortion activists. Whilst they represent a tiny minority, there is recent evidence of an increase in activism outside UK abortion clinics; faith-based groups regularly organise 'vigils' seeking to deter service users from entering clinics. In response to this, pro-choice groups launched a campaign for buffer-zones around clinics.

Hair
ISBN: 9781628922868 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. Hair, a primary marker of our mammalian nature, is an extraordinary indicator of economic and social standing, political orientation, religious affiliation, marital status, and cultural leanings, among other things. The meanings of hair are deep, powerful, and so strongly embedded in cultural conditioning that they are usually understood unconsciously (and all the more strongly for that). In untangling its myriad meanings, Scott Lowe reveals just how little we control... Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things.

Moralizing The Environment
ISBN: 9781857288407 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Drawing on research carried out amongst dairy farmers, National River Authority Pollution Inspectors, agricultural advisers and environmental campaigners, the author discusses whether it is unacceptable to pollute in a farming environment or merely an unfortunate side-effect of dairy production processes in the 1990s. The...
