Social Security: False Consciousness and Crisis
ISBN: 9781412804912 / Angielski / Miękka / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. One of today's most important national concerns is the projected bankruptcy of Social Security some time in the next few decades and the resultant inability to pay full benefits on time. It has been said that Social Security is the third rail of American politics-touch it and you die. Consequently, it took over two decades of warnings before it was established as a major domestic concern. In Social Security, now in paperback, John Attarian argues that the major cause of this impasse has been the misleading manner in which the program has been depicted to the public, and the beliefs about...

ISBN: 9780742562431 / Angielski / Twarda / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The reform of social security pensions and healthcare is a key issue for the modern world, and in many ways Latin America has acted as a social laboratory for the reform of these systems.

Public Street CCTV - A Psychometric Study on the Perceived Social Risk
ISBN: 9783639058635 / Angielski / Miękka / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Public street surveillance - a domain of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) - has grown enormously and become common place in our society as an all-purpose security tool.

Nevertheless these concerns not only define the social risk perception of CCTV, but may also cause its social relocation and alter social support of CCTV. This book is essential reading for those interested in CCTV from a social, privacy or security aspect. There has never been such a...
