ISBN: 9781783488001 / Angielski / Twarda / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When "revolution" becomes a recurring theme in mainstream culture, where do we look for the tools for a critical engagement with the present?

Culture Control Critique provides an analysis of how representations of political systems in contemporary mainstream culture may be understood not so much by looking at their apparent critical message but by...

Impersonal Power: History and Theory of the Bourgeois State
ISBN: 9789004130272 / Angielski / Twarda / 804 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The point of departure of Heide Gerstenberger's path-breaking work is a critique of structural-functionalist theory of the state, in both its modernisation theory and materialist variants. Prof. Gerstenberger opposes to these a historical-theoretical explanation that proceeds from the long-term structuring effect of concrete social practice. This is elucidated by detailed investigation of the development of bourgeois state power in the two key examples of England and France. The different complexions that the bourgeois state assumed are presented as the results of processes of social and...

Organizing Supply Chain Processes for Sustainable Innovation in the Agri-Food Industry
ISBN: 9781786354884 / Angielski / Twarda / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The sustainability of agri-food supply chains is particularly relevant for global sustainable development. Many existing food production systems do more harm than good.

The existing system is also unbalanced with respect to its capacity to produce, the amount of waste it generates, the number of people who suffer from hunger, and the nutritional value it provides. Most of the current supply chains have been developed...
