Shopping
ISBN: 9780745638614 / Twarda / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-12 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...

Wentworth: The Beautiful Game and the Making of Place
ISBN: 9781869144463 / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the early 1960s, the city of Durban consolidated racially circumscribed group areas with brutal intensity. In the tiny enclave of Wentworth, designated a Coloured area, newly relocated residents made their homes and sought work in the numerous heavy industries that proliferated on its edges. As people built places of worship and newborn friendships reached across fences and staircases, soccer became the game of choice. Rudimentary pitches were marked out, cool drinks staked and the game unfolded with a mixture of delicate touches and bruising tackles. By the early 1970s, Wentworth's...

Masculinities, Sexualities and Love
ISBN: 9780367487003 / Miękka / 177 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18 dni roboczych. It can be said that societies today know little of how gender, sexuality and love interconnect in dissimilar contexts, and how they are collectively shaped by social structures. Underpinned by the theoretical writings of Michel Foucault, Masculinities, Sexualities and Love examines a range of empirical data, including interviews with gay and bisexual men, to understand the ways in which love is constructed and conceptualized. Clearly written, the book is grounded in personal narratives and intimate stories of love, hurt, pain and heartbreak, including the author's own experiences;...

Sociology as Analysis of the Unintended: From the Problem of Ignorance to the Discovery of the Possible
ISBN: 9780367486976 / Miękka / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18 dni roboczych. Sociology of unintended consequences is commonly depicted as a framework for understanding the outcomes that run counter to the initial intentions of social actors because of factors such as ignorance, error and complexity. This conventional approach, however, is now undergoing change under the influence of more encompassing shifts in framing in social sciences. Indeed, in the last few years, the study of the unintended has evidently moved from the question "What are the sources of the unintended?" to the inquiry "What is it that makes the unintended possible?" or "What risks, but also...

The Cultural Authority of Science: Comparing across Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas
ISBN: 9780367487027 / Miękka / 420 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18 dni roboczych. The cultural authority of science is the authority that is granted to science in any particular context. This authority is as much a matter of image and perceived legitimacy as of statutory guarantee. However, while authority can be charismatic, based on tradition or based on competence, we would assume that science aims to be an authority of competence. To what extent does science have the last word, or stand above opinion on public issues? This Indo-European led collaboration aims to map the cultural authority of science, and to construct a system of indicators to observe this...
