Описание: Contrary to the attitudes that have been marketed and taught to us, says C. A. Bowers, the fact is that computers operate on a set of Western cultural assumptions and a market economy that drives consumption. Our indoctrination includes the view of global computing innovations as inevitable and on a par with social progress.

Описание:

Critical Themes in Indian Sociology brings together the writings of a number of scholars--both well established and younger, in India and in different parts of the world--on various themes that express the richness and diversity that defines sociological scholarship on India. The book reflects changes in scholarship over time and charts out new subjects and methods for the study of social life in India. Commemorating the 50 plus years since Contributions to Indian Sociology was first published, this book is a tribute to a journal that has sustained an internationally acclaimed and rigorous sociological engagement with India. Comprising a wide range of themes such as village, city, class, caste, politics, gender, sexuality, media, food and education, this book presents a concise, yet in-depth sense of a sociological view of India today.

Описание: ​Bringt die blo e Knappheit berlebenswichtiger G ter Menschen dazu, Macht und Leistung als sehr wichtig zu bewerten? Oder schaffen wirtschaftliche Institutionen eine "Culture of Competition", die zu einer hohen Priorit t von Macht- und Leistungswerten f hrt? Welche Rolle spielt die individuelle Positionierung innerhalb der sozialen Stratifikation? Dies sind Fragen, denen die vorliegende Studie mit Daten des European Social Surveys nachgeht. Empirisch zeigt sich, dass je niedriger die sozio- komomische Entwicklung von Gesellschaften, umso h her ist die Priorit t von Macht- und Leistungswerten innerhalb der Bev lkerung. Ein umgekehrter Effekt ist f r die individuelle Position in der sozialen Stratifikation zu beobachten. Je h her die Position in der sozialen Stratifikation, umso h her ist auch die individuelle Priorit t in Macht- und Leistungswerten. Diese gegens tzliche Befunde scheinen auf den ersten Blick wie ein Widerspruch. Im Rahmen des Buchs wird jedoch veranschaulicht, wie sich die Zusammenh nge mit Hilfe des Konzepts der sozialen Produktionsfunktionen plausibel erkl ren lassen.​

Описание: This collection of essays acknowledges the enormous expectations placed on the shoulders of the South African revolution to produce an alternative political regime in response to apartheid and global neo-liberalism. It does not lament the inability of South Africa`s democracy to provide deeper freedoms, or suggest that since it hasn`t this is some form of betrayal.

Описание:

In Contemporary Social Constructionism, Darin Weinberg provides a detailed, critical overview of the key themes of this school of thought, which explains how phenomena and ways of thinking develop in their social contexts. Weinberg traces the multiple roots of social constructionism, and shows how it has been used, critiqued, and refined within the social and human sciences. 

Contemporary Social Constructionism illuminates how constructionist social science developed in relation to positivism, critical and hermeneutic philosophy, and feminism and then goes on to distinguish the concept from postmodernism and deconstructionism. In addition, Weinberg shows how social constructionists have contributed to our understanding of biology, the body, self-knowledge, and social problems. 

The result is a contemporary statement of social constructionism that shores up its scientific veracity and demonstrates its analytic power, promise, and influence. The book concludes with a look toward the future of the concept and its use.

Описание: This volume features more than fifteen essays written in honor of Peter D. Klein. It explores the work and legacy of this prominent philosopher, who has had and continues to have a tremendous influence in the development of epistemology. The essays reflect the breadth and depth of Klein's work. They engage directly with his views and with the views of his interlocutors. In addition, a comprehensive introduction discusses the overall impact of Klein's philosophical work. It also explains how each of the essays in the book fits within that legacy. Coverage includes such topics as a knowledge-first account of defeasible reasoning, felicitous falsehoods, the possibility of foundationalist justification, the many formal faces of defeat, radical scepticism, and more. Overall, the book provides readers with an overview of Klein’s contributions to epistemology, his importance to twentieth and twenty-first-century philosophy, and a survey of his philosophical ideas and accomplishments. It's not only a celebration of the work of an important philosopher. It also offers readers an insightful journey into the nature of knowledge, scepticism, and justification.
