Post-Democracy is a polemical work that goes beyond current complaints about the failings of our democracy and explores the deeper social and economic forces that account for the current malaise.

ISBN: 9780745669861 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. In principle the advanced, market-driven world in which we now live is fuelled by knowledge, information and transparency, but in practice the processes that produce this world systematically corrupt and denigrate knowledge: this is the powerful and provocative argument advanced by Colin Crouch in his latest exploration of societies on the road to post-democracy. Crouch shows that executives in profit-maximizing corporations have incentives to ignore or distort knowledge, especially firms in the information business of the mass media themselves, as financial knowledge increasingly...

Making Capitalism Fit for Society
ISBN: 9780745672236 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Capitalism is the only complex system known to us that can provide an efficient and innovative economy, but the financial crisis has brought out the pernicious side of capitalism and shown that it remains dependent on the state to rescue it from its own deficiencies. Can capitalism be reshaped so that it is fit for society, or must we acquiesce to the neoliberal view that society will be at its best when markets are given free rein in all areas of life?
The aim of this book is to show that the acceptance of capitalism and the market does not require us to accept the full... Capitalism is the only complex system known to us that can provide an efficient and innovative economy, but the financial crisis has brought out the p...

Capitalist Diversity and Change: Recombinant Governance and Institutional Entrepreneurs
ISBN: 9780199286478 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Over the last decade the neo-institutionalist literature of comparative capitalism has developed into an influential body of work. In this book, Colin Crouch assesses this literature, and proposes a major re-orientation of the field. Crouch critiques and finds a way of modeling how creative actors trying to achieve change - institutional entrepreneurs - tackle these constraints. Central to the account is the concept of governance, as it is by recombining governance mechanism that these entrepreneurs must achieve their goals. In seeking how to analyze the spaces in which they operate, Crouch...

Are Skills the Answer?: The Political Economy of Skill Creation in Advanced Industrial Countries
ISBN: 9780198294382 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. While the acquisition of skills has become a major public need, there is increasing dependence for their provision on individual firms. These firms can have no responsibility for general needs with government action being restricted to residual care for the unemployed rather than contributing at the leading edge of advanced skills policy. The authors argue that public agencies must find new ways of working with the business sector, acquiring expertise and authority through such means as supporting skills standards and taking the lead in the certification of employers as trainers.
