This book provides the first detailed account of Gramsci's work in the context of current critical and socio-cultural debates.

Social Movements in Britain
ISBN: 9780415071222 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since the mid 1960s, across Europe and America, more and more people have been turning their backs on mainstream politics and parties, and are pursuing more unconventional ways of making themselves heard. Recent research suggests that as many people in Britain are active in protest or similar movements as in the conventional political parties. Social scientists have revived the idea of Social Movements to explain this. This study explores the theories surrounding these new movements of the 1980s and 1990s. It begins by summarizing these theories and describing how such movements as...

ISBN: 9780415087131 / Angielski / Twarda / 1840 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Capitalism, Socialism and Democracy
ISBN: 9780415107624 / Angielski / Miękka / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Capitalism, Socialism and Democracy remains one of the greatest works of social theory written this century. When it first appeared the New English Weekly predicted that for the next five to ten years it will cetainly remain a work with which no one who professes any degree of information on sociology or economics can afford to be unacquainted.' Fifty years on, this prediction seems a little understated.
Why has the work endured so well? Schumpeter's contention that the seeds of capitalism's decline were internal, and his equal and opposite hostility to centralist...

The Ricardian Socialists
ISBN: 9780415122139 / Angielski / Twarda / 1568 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Hodgskin's emphasis on people and labour is fundamental to the work of the Ricardian Socialists. The Ricardian Socialists were distinguished by their claim that workers had right to the full product of their labour, whereas the ruling classes, who contributed nothing to production, did not deserve their income of rent, profit and taxes. The writings of the Ricardian Socialists, especially Hodgskin, made a significant contribution ot the labour theory of value. Crucially, they were heralded by Marx for their ability to use Ricardian theory as a weapon against bourgeois economy. This 7 volume...

Socialisms: Old and New
ISBN: 9780415151795 / Angielski / Twarda / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this introduction to the subject, the author argues that the contradictions within socialism arise from the absence of a single socialist tradition - despite Marxist attempts to claim the title of the true socialism. Rather than seeking to reconcile socialist differences in an all-embracing unity, it is important to recognize the diversity of socialism. Disagreement and tensions within the socialist movement can then be accepted as the subject matter of different kinds of socialism, each of which may be more or less plausible, appropriate, or desirable. The volume develops this theme...
