  • - Charles S. Peirce and the Pragmatics of Globalization
    by Blasco Jose Sobrinho
    £42.99

    Addresses the formation and fragmentation of identity in today's postmodern world. It surveys the range of 20th-century sociology to deconstruct those nostrums of subjective meaning, personal power and autonomous selfhood that comprise its semantics of agency.

  • - Care and Cruelty in Modern Society
    by Natan Sznaider
    £32.49

    This text argues that it is the nature of modernity to foster compassion. It offers a historical view to disprove the idea that modernity erodes moral sentiment and breaks down older social bonds. The book looks at the way in which modern society is building new and different social bonds.

    by Ales Debeljak
    £36.99

  • by John Mandalios
    £41.49

    This work seeks to incorporate the "postmodern" debate on the self with a philosophical exploration of identity and cultural formation, and the dynamics of social power underlying them. It analyzes the historical, social, political, religious and psychoanalytical dimensions of civilized life.

  • - Recovering Justice
    by Keith D. Doubt
    £37.49

    This book provides a sociological account of the events in Bosnia in the 1990s, including ethnic cleansing, mass rape, and the role of political journalists.

  • - Consumers, Culture, and Commodification
     
    £48.49

    Consumption as a field of cultural studies overlaps with theories of postmodernism, the social construction of self, commodification in late capitalism, and the role of mass media in daily life. This volume examines the ways in which consumerism has been approached by cultural studies.
