While the use of imprisonment continues to rise in developed nations, we have little sociological knowledge of the prison's inner world. Based on extensive fieldwork in a medium-security prison, The Prisoner Society: Power, Adaptation and Social Life in an English Prison provides an in-depth analysis of the prison's social anatomy.

ISBN: 9781859737415 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "New Lad culture" boomed in the 1990s with the publication of men's magazines such as loaded, FHM and Maxim. What were the commercial roots of this boom and what did it say about contemporary masculinity and the dynamics of cultural production? Applying a cultural-economic approach and drawing on interviews with key figures at the sector's leading products, Crewe unwraps the means through which publishing companies comprehended and addressed the men's magazine audience in the 1990s. He argues that it was informal knowledge about cultures of masculinity held by editorial practitioners...

Hidden Designs (Routledge Revivals): The Critical Profession and Renaissance Literature
ISBN: 9781138779280 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This 1986 study offers a challenging contribution to the on-going critical debate surrounding the English literary Renaissance. Although informed by the new historicism and post-structuralism, Hidden Designs makes a plea for criticism to be practiced in its own name rather than in the name of theory, and opposes the hyper-professionalisation of literary studies in favour of the broader communal functions of criticism. Major Renaissance authors and their recent critics are placed under suspicion as Crewe explores the elements of criminality inherent in the powerful interests...

It builds on recent work in the anthropology of development in its examination of the evolution and persistence of a number of key ideas about gender, technology and race.
