Why They Just Can't Get Over It: A Spiritual And Psychological Approach To Overcoming Racism in America
ISBN: 9780595454990 / Angielski / Miękka / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Slavery may have ended in 1865, but the pains, prejudices, and traditions of four hundred years of slavery have continued through the generations and are ingrained in our modern psyches. Present-day America is still a breeding ground for hate crimes and racism because passed-down hatred is just as potent as firsthand hatred. We are not at fault-we were never slaves or masters, ourselves-but this is our problem all the same. And we must make it our mission to break the cycle of abuse, cope with our legacy of hatred and mistrust, and heal ourselves with the kind of understanding and...

The Female Genesis : Creativity, Self and Gender
ISBN: 9780745616810 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Is creation male, as the Bible seems to suggest? Does creativity always belong to the male element? Is there no female genesis? This exciting book argues against fashionable trends in contemporary feminisms that wish to abandon 'woman' as a flawed and oppressive term, regarding masculinity and femininity as unwanted binaries that attempt to subvert gender as oppression. Instead the author argues for the need to revalue feminine origins, to make room for the feminine element in creation and explore the predicament of the female creator.

Moral Textures : Feminist Narratives in the Public Sphere
ISBN: 9780745620428 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This text argues that when dominated groups such as women create publicly-oriented social movements, they seek to frame their demands in compelling narrative forms. Through these new tales, they can become, for the first time, active subjects in their own stories. Developing this theoretical model, the author offers new interpretations of Habermas and Arendt as well as of feminist debates about their work. Critically relating Wellmers and Ricoeurs aesthetic ideas to public sphere theory, she also confronts the limitations of the Foucaultian tradition that informs so much post-structuralist...

Masculine Domination
ISBN: 9780745622644 / Angielski / Twarda / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Male domination is so anchored in our unconscious that we hardly perceive it any more; it is so much in line with our expectations that we find it difficult to call into question. Pierre Bourdieu's ethnographic description of Kabyle society, a veritable reservoir of the Mediterranean unconscious, provides a powerful instrument to dissolve taken-for-granted truths and explore the symbolic structures of this androcentric unconscious which survives in today's men and women. But the discovery of permanences obliges us to overturn the habitual manner in which we frame the problem. How does the...

Intercultural Dialogue: Canada and the Other
ISBN: 9780776606460 / Angielski / Miękka / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is about the other, that conceptual reality we increasingly encounter in our daily lives as the global village manifests itself in Canada and beyond. The other presents values and lifestyles different from our own, requiring a sharpening of our perception of self and of those around us. The collection of essays in Intercultural Dialgue: Canada and the Other takes a hard look at how these perceptions are revealed through intercultural dialogue in the literary, political and sociological aspects of Canadian society. The dilemma of the other, or... This book is about the other, that conceptual reality we increasingly encounter in our daily lives as the global village manifests itself in... |

Theorizing Discrimination in an Era of Contested Prejudice: Discrimination in the United States
ISBN: 9781592139125 / Angielski / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Despite several decades of attention, there is still no consensus on the effects of racial or sexual discrimination in the United States. In this landmark work, the well-known sociologist Samuel Lucas shows how discrimination is not simply an action that one person performs in relation to another individual, but something far more insidious: a pervasive dynamic that permeates the environment in which we live and work. Challenging existing literature on the subject, Lucas makes a clear distinction between prejudice and discrimination. He maintains that when an era of 'condoned exploitation'...

The Changing Face of Antisemitism: From Ancient Times to the Present Day
ISBN: 9780195341218 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For thirty years the director of the Wiener Library in London--the leading institute for the study of anti-Semitism--Walter Laqueur here offers both a comprehensive history of anti-Semitism as well as an illuminating look at the newest wave of this phenomenon.
Laqueur begins with an invaluable historical account of this pernicious problem, tracing the evolution from a predominantly religious anti-Semitism--stretching back to the middle ages--to a racial anti-Semitism that developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The author then uses this historical account as backdrop to a...

How Race Is Made: Slavery, Segregation, and the Senses
ISBN: 9780807859254 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For at least two centuries, argues Mark Smith, white southerners used all of their senses--not just their eyes--to construct racial difference and define race. His provocative analysis, extending from the colonial period to the mid-twentieth century, shows how whites of all classes used the artificial binary of "black" and "white" to justify slavery and erect the political, legal, and social structure of segregation.
Based on painstaking research, How Race Is Made is a highly original, always frank, and often disturbing book. After enslaved Africans were initially brought to...
