The New Bauman Reader: Thinking Sociologically in Liquid Modern Times
ISBN: 9781784994037 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Zygmunt Bauman is one of the leading social and political thinkers of the modern world. He is a classic thinker in the sense that his books possess the two qualities laid out by the founding fathers of the social sciences - the moral basis and the artistic touch - but his greatest interest is in showing how personal troubles are inextricably connected to public issues. He turns his critical eye on just about any social issue, event or institution from shopping to the state and from sex to social inequality. To read Bauman is to see how the rhythms of everyday life may be turned into an...

Zygmunt Bauman
ISBN: 9780415355049 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 178 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This timely book provides a concise but critical introduction to the work of a sociological phenomenon. After introducing the man, his major influences, and his special way of "thinking sociologically," Blackshaw traces the development of Bauman's project by identifying and explaining the two major shifts of emphasis in his work--the postmodern "turn" and the subsequent refocusing on "liquid" modernity.

Leisure
ISBN: 9780415430272 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 174 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. No single introductory book has until now captured the range of thought appropriate for scrutinizing the idea of leisure. Beginning with a discussion of expressions in classical thought, etymological definitions and key leisure studies concepts, Blackshaw suggests that the idea abounds with ambivalence, which is unlikely ever to be resolved. After analyzing the rise and fall of modern leisure patterns, the emphasis shifts from the historical to the sociological and the author identifies and critically discusses the key modernist and postmodernist perspectives. Drawing on... No single introductory book has until now captured the range of thought appropriate for scrutinizing the idea of leisure. Beginning with a discussi... |

ISBN: 9781138898844 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this provocative new book, Tony Blackshaw argues that Leisure Studies is in a quiet but deep state of crisis. The twenty-first century has brought profound change to all aspects of human life and social processes, including a plurality of new leisure worlds, and traditional concepts of Leisure Studies fail to capture this richness. This book aims to re-invigorate Leisure Studies by revealing and unpacking these leisure worlds, thereby changing the way we think about leisure and the way we do Leisure Studies. It presents new rules of method and radical ways of thinking about leisure life... In this provocative new book, Tony Blackshaw argues that Leisure Studies is in a quiet but deep state of crisis.

Zygmunt Bauman has written more than seventy books over five decades, most taking a single subject and finding doors to open it in all directions. His work is an essential reference point in sociology, but it is time that everyone caught up with him.

Leisure Life: Myth, Modernity and Masculinity
ISBN: 9780415270731 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Leisure Life is a ground-breaking study of men and masculinity. Focusing on the social networks and leisure lifestyles of a particular group of working-class men - 'the lads' - Tony Blackshaw argues that traditional social collectivities such as class are being superseded. Instead, leisure life is now the central arena in which individuals assert their identities and confirm their belonging. For 'the lads', leisure time is the pivotal point in a fragmented life which not only allows them to fashion some sense of order in a world of endemic disorder but also provides opportunities for...
