Au Pair
ISBN: 9780745650111 / Twarda / 209 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Many families leave their children for years to be looked after by young people about whom they know next to nothing, from places they have barely heard of. Who are these au pairs, why do they come and what is their experience of this arrangement? Do they, for their part, find that they are treated as one of the family, and would they even want to be? After a year of careful research, this book shows how most of our assumptions and expectations about au pairs are wrong.
This is the first book devoted to the lives of au pairs, their leisure as well as their work time. We see this... Many families leave their children for years to be looked after by young people about whom they know next to nothing, from places they have barely hea...

Wall Street at War: The Secret Struggle for the Global Economy
ISBN: 9780745644172 / Twarda / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Many of the problems that lie at the heart of the current financial crisis stem from a significant but little-known development that occurred in the early 1980s: the credit agencies that flourished in New York, London and elsewhere acquired a great deal of power because their ratings now reflected investors shifting priorities, and so controlled the ability of corporations to gain access to capital.
The rise of the credit agencies thereby also represented a new model of capitalism, quite different from the old model of the risk-taking entrepreneur. To attract investment capital,...

The Anthropological Lens: Rethinking E. E. Evans-Pritchard
ISBN: 9780198812913 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18 dni roboczych. Sir Edward Evan Evans-Pritchard (1902-1973) is widely considered the most influential British anthropologist of the twentieth century, known to generations of students for his seminal works on South Sudanese ethnography Witchcraft, Oracles and Magic Among the Azande (OUP 1937) and The Nuer (OUP 1940). In these works, now classics in the anthropological literature, Evans-Pritchard broke new ground on questions of rationality, social accountability, kinship, social and political organization, and religion, as well as influentially moving the discipline in Britain away from the natural sciences...

The Goodness Paradox: How Evolution Made Us Both More and Less Violent
ISBN: 9781781255841 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. 'A fascinating new analysis of human violence, filled with fresh ideas and gripping evidence from our primate cousins, historical forebears, and contemporary neighbors' Steven Pinker 'A brilliant analysis of the role of aggression in our evolutionary history' Jane Goodall It may not always seem so, but day-to-day interactions between individual humans are extraordinarily peaceful. That is not to say that we are perfect, just far less violent than most animals, especially our closest relatives, the chimpanzee and their legendarily docile cousins, the Bonobo. Perhaps surprisingly, we...

Shopping
ISBN: 9780745638614 / Twarda / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. We spend more time shopping than doing anything else, after sleep and work. So why is it not taken more seriously? The answer: we take shopping for granted. Indeed, culture can only 'work' by being taken for granted. This paradox - that what is most familiar, like shopping, is also the hardest to 'see' analytically - provides the starting point for this compelling examination of the many dimensions of the shopping experience.
Shopping enables readers to realize the significance of their shopping memories and milestones, how the rhythm of the day or week revolves as much around...

Cosmopolitanism: Ideals and Realities
ISBN: 9780745648354 / Twarda / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book sets out the case for a cosmopolitan approach to contemporary global politics. It presents a systematic theory of cosmopolitanism, explicating its core principles and justifications, and examines the role many of these principles have played in the development of global politics, such as framing the human rights regime. The framework is then used to address some of the most pressing issues of our time: the crisis of financial markets, climate change and the fallout from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. In each case, Held argues that realistic politics is exhausted, and that...

Places of Pain: Forced Displacement, Popular Memory and Trans-Local Identities in Bosnian War-Torn Communities

Honorable Mention 2013 PROSE Awards, Archaeology and Anthropology section "Scholars of transnational migration and diaspora will find in this book a compelling exploration of the day-to-day practices of translocalism. What is most valuable in Halilovich's approach is that it encourages analysis of both homogeneous national and religious groups and heterogeneous multiethnic collectives in empirical, rather than essentialist or ideological, terms. By de-emphasizing the traditional or official markers of difference in Bosnia, Halilovich sheds light on how collective identities may be...

The Kashubs: Past and Present: Past and Present
ISBN: 9783039119752 / Miękka / 299 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25 dni roboczych. The Kashubs, a regional autochthonous group inhabiting northern Poland, represent one of the most dynamic ethnic groups in Europe. As a community, they have undergone significant political, social, economic and cultural change over the last hundred years.

"Rountree's welcome and timely edited volume addresses topical, cutting-edge issues with regard to contemporary European Pagan and Native Faith movements. Focusing on the theoretical richness born out of the tensions found between 'the local' and 'the global, ' past and present, the volume provides a refreshing approach to understanding these movements." - Amy Whitehead, University of Wales Trinity Saint David

Oikos and Market: Explorations in Self-Sufficiency After Socialism
ISBN: 9781782386957 / Twarda / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25 dni roboczych. Self-sufficiency of the house is practiced in many parts of the world but ignored in economic theory, just as socialist collectivization is assumed to have brought household self-sufficiency to an end. The ideals of self-sufficiency, however, continue to shape economic activity in a wide range of postsocialist settings. This volume's six comparative studies of postsocialist villages in Eastern Europe and Asia illuminate the enduring importance of the house economy, which is based not on the market but on the order of the house. These formations show that economies depend not only on the...

A European Social Union After the Crisis
ISBN: 9781108415781 / Twarda / 562 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Today, many people agree that the EU lacks solidarity and needs a social dimension. This debate is not new, but until now the notion of a 'social Europe' remained vague and elusive. To make progress, we need a coherent conception of the reasons behind, and the agenda for, not a 'social Europe', but a new idea: a European Social Union. We must motivate, define, and demarcate an appropriate notion of European solidarity. We must also understand the legal and political obstacles, and how these can be tacked. In short, we need unequivocal answers to questions of why, what, and how: on that basis,...

The Life Within: Classic Maya and the Matter of Permanence
ISBN: 9780300196023 / Twarda / 195 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. For the Classic Maya, who flourished in and around the Yucatan peninsula in the first millennium AD, artistic materials were endowed with an internal life. Far from being inert substances, jade, flint, obsidian, and wood held a vital essence, agency, and even personality. To work with these materials was to coax their life into full expression and to engage in witty play. Writing, too, could shift from hieroglyphic signs into vibrant glyphs that sprouted torsos, hands, and feet. Appearing to sing, grapple, and feed, they effectively blurred the distinction between text and image.
