The Critical Mass in Collective Action
ISBN: 9780521308397 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The problem of collective action is that each member of a group wants other members to make necessary sacrifices while he or she "free rides," reaping the benefits of collective action without doing the work. Inevitably the end result is that no one does the work and the common interest is not realized. This book analyzes the social pressure whereby groups solve the problem of collective action. The authors break new ground in showing that the problem of collective action requires a model of group process and cannot be deduced from simple models of individual behavior. They employ formal...

Social Facilitation
ISBN: 9780521333580 / Angielski / Twarda / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Humans may run faster, read less, or type more quickly, simply because someone else is present. The presence of one person affects the behaviour of another; this is known as social facilitation and is one of the oldest topics in social psychology. Despite its importance, this is one of the first book-length studies of the phenomena. Dr Guerin reviews all work in this area from 1898 onwards, looking at both animal and human research, and developing his own theory, based on modern behavioural analysis. The book should be appreciated for its wide-ranging review of previous work on social...

Managing Elites: Socializaton in Law and Business Schools
ISBN: 9780742538481 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. How does one become a member of an elite profession? Managing Elites examines how elites-in-training contest, rationalize and ultimately enthusiastically embrace their dominant positions in society. Using interviews with 79 law and MBA students, the author argues that elite socialization requires both accommodation and resistance to professional ideologies. Students develop a collective cynicism about elements of their education, learning that their discipline imparts esoteric knowledge -- but also claiming that they didn't learn anything. They struggle with the idea that fellow students are...

ISBN: 9783642788628 / Angielski / Miękka / 541 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A social dilemma is a game which at first glance has only inefficient solutions. If efficient solutions are to be achieved, some kind of cooperation among the players is required. This book asks two basic questions, closely intertwined with each other: 1. How is cooperation possible among rational players in such a social dilemma? Which changes in the social context of a social dilemma situation are necessary in order for players to rationally choose the cooperative option? 2. How do real players actually behave in social dilemma situations? Do they behave "rationally" at all? Or, conversely,...
