The Black Culture Industry
ISBN: 9780415120838 / Angielski / Miękka / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Cashmore's study argues that black culture has been converted into a commodity, usually in the interests of white owned corporations; that blacks have been permitted success within the entertainment industry only on the condition that they conform certain stereotypes; and that black entrepreneurs, when they rise to the top of corporate entertainment ladder, have tended to act precisely as whites have in similar circumstances. Using detailed studies of the marketing of Motown, Michael Jackson and the artist formerly known as Prince, Cashmore suggests that inflating the significance of this...

Genocide After Emotion: The Post-Emotional Balkan War
ISBN: 9780415122931 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The failure to adequately respond on the part of the major Western superpowers to the atrocities in the Balkans constitutes a major moral and political scandal.

Deconstructing Durkheim: A Post-Post Structuralist Critique
ISBN: 9780415123747 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study provides a close textual analysis of Durkheimian sociology from the standpoint of critical structuralism. Durkheim's social ontology is analyzed as a sociologistic theory of reality driven by an apparent tension between social determinism and individualism. This tension is probed to reveal its ultimate resolution in an absolute social determinism. This sociologistic social determinism is then scrutinized, as a potential affinity beween Durkheimianism and structuralism. It is demonstrated that Durkheim's ontological social determinism, while absolute, is coextensive with an...

ISBN: 9780415132190 / Angielski / Miękka / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Between kinship ties on the one hand and the state on the other, human beings experience a diversity of social relationships and groupings which in modern western thought have come to be gathered under the label 'civil society'. A liberal-individualist model of civil society has become fashionable in recent years, but what can such a term mean in the late twentieth century?
Civil Society argues that civil society should not be studied as a separate, 'private' realm clearly separated in opposition to the state; nor should it be confined to the institutions of the 'voluntary' or...
