Throughout the twentieth century, The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism was regarded as an important sociological and economic text, continuing into the twenty-first century, when extreme capitalism has continued to come under fire. Weber's work provided a history, from where the profit motive could be ethically justified. Max Weber combined his interests in sociology, political economy and history to give perspective to his analysis. Concentrating principally on the experience of the West, he returned to the time when religion, its concepts and practice, dominated society.

Das große, wissenschaftlich fundierte Debattenbuch zur Generation Z und der Arbeitswelt. Faul, unverbindlich, arbeitsunfähig - der jungen Generation von heute wurde schon viel nachgesagt. In Bezug auf ihre Arbeitsmoral selten Positives. Im Vergleich zu Generationen vor ihr, hat die Generation Z – jene Altersgruppe, die zwischen 1995 und 2010 geboren wurde – eine andere Einstellung zur Arbeit entwickelt: Sie wünscht sich weniger Überstunden, mehr Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten und vor allem Freizeit.

"The ultimate hidden truth of the world is that it is something that we make, and could just as easily make differently," wrote David Graeber. A renowned anthropologist, activist, and author of such classic books as Debt and the breakout New York Times bestseller The Dawn of Everything (with David Wengrow), Graeber was as well-known for his sharp, lively essays as he was for his iconic role in the Occupy movement and his paradigm-shifting tomes.

Powerful institutions, from schools to tech and social media companies, create breeding grounds for isolation by failing to invest in relational work. This obstacle stands in the way of our fight for racial equity, economic justice, and climate resilience. In Relationality, asexuality and relationship activist David Jay brings clarity to the crisis with a fresh perspective that expands upon the fundamental idea that all entities in the universe are connected. Jay draws from a range of personal experiences, including his time spent helping tech workers and policymakers reform social media.

Уилфред Троттер (1872–1939) – талантливый английский хирург и выдающийся социолог. Развивая идеи Гюстава Лебона, изложенные в его знаменитой книге Психология народов и масс, он совершил настоящий прорыв в изучении группового поведения человека и способов управления толпой, которые в наши дни активно используют политтехнологи и маркетологи. Книга Уилфреда Троттера о "стадном инстинкте" была опубликована практически сразу после окончания Первой мировой войны.

Ґюстав Лебон — французький психолог, соціолог, антрополог та історик, публіцист, найбільше відомий як засновник соціальної психології і автор одного з перших варіантів доктрини "масового суспільства". Гюстав Ле Бон обстоював ідею расового детермінізму в розвитку цивілізації. Як фундамент соціальної еволюції він розглядав не розум, а ірраціонально-вольову, емоційну сферу психічного життя — почуття і вірування. Психологія народів присвячена питанням утворення, розвитку і згасання людських рас і ролі, яку грають в цих процесах керуючі народом ідеї і люди. Власне, саме ця робота поклала початок соціальній психології як науці.

The concept of identity has become widespread within the social and behavioral sciences, cutting across disciplines from psychiatry and psychology to political science and sociology. Introduced more than fifty years ago, identity theory is a social psychological theory that attempts to understand person's identities, their sources in interaction and society, their processes of operation, and their consequences for interaction and society from a sociological perspective.

Este libro surge de la inversión de la pregunta que ordenaba un proyecto intelectual. En el lapso entre 1998 y 2004, Peter Sloterdijk (Karlsruhe, 1947) gesta, en el monumental proyecto Esferas, su apuesta más vasta para explicar la historia de la humanidad indagando en el carácter pneumático de toda comunidad. Guiaba su mano la siguiente hipótesis: los seres humanos, para estar en el mundo, no hacen sino crear e insuflar incesantemente un espacio para vivir juntos.

David Harvey's Companion to Marx's Grundrisse builds upon his widely acclaimed companions to the first and second volumes of Capital in a way that will reach as wide an audience as possible. Marx's stated ambition for this text is to reveal "the exact development of the concept of capital as the fundamental concept of modern economics, just as capital itself is the foundation of bourgeois society."

We live in a world that doesn’t just encourage overtalking, but practically demands it. When success is measured by how much attention we can attract, how long we can hold on to the mic, it’s no wonder that we feel compelled to spout endlessly on Twitter, to document every detail of our lives on Instagram, start that podcast, or lead that conference. And yet, oddly enough, the most powerful and accomplished people in the world aren’t part of that chorus—they’re reserved, they listen, and when they do speak they’re considered.

Take an exciting tour into the depths of our world and the consciousness creating it. Let's talk about who we are, why we are here, and beyond. Empowering and informative.

Sembra ormai chiaro che il mondo che verrà, anzi il mondo che si sta già delineando, ci obbligherà a rinunciare a tanti privilegi o semplici abitudini. Quello che invece sarà meno immediato è come alzarci dal «comodo divano» su cui gran parte dell'Occidente riposa da tempo e tornare, come facevano i nostri antenati, esploratori. Come si esce dalla comfort zone a cui siamo assuefatti? E cosa siamo disposti a sacrificare in cambio di una vita avventurosa e dinamica?

In the past few years, there has been an increasing amount of coverage and discussion about the growing frustration between these generations. Some call it a generational war. Much of the debate has to do with the Boomer generation, with younger generations claiming various failures of this generation to provide a world or country that is sustainable and affordable.

Você acha que sabe como e por que faz suas escolhas? Suas preferências políticas, a gorjeta que dá ao garçom, aquele colega de trabalho com uma cara tão amigável de quem você desconfia e até a pessoa com quem você se casa não são opções tão objetivas assim. Leonard Mlodinow, autor do best-seller O andar do bêbado, investiga, de forma divertida e brilhante, como o inconsciente modela nosso comportamento e determina nossas decisões e juízos sobre o mundo, as pessoas, as coisas.

Las valiosas reflexiones del político más querido del mundo y del más importante pensador contemporáneo, reunidos por primera vez en Uruguay para llamar a la acción.

Zieht sich eine liberale Gesellschaft gerade den Boden weg, auf dem sie fest stehen sollte? Ein Essay darüber, was die digitale Massenkommunikation zwischenmenschlich anrichtet. Nichts hat das Zusammenleben so umfassend verändert wie die Digitalisierung – wir denken, fühlen und streiten anders, seit wir dauervernetzt und überinformiert sind. Demokratiepolitisch bedeutsam wird dies bei der vielbeschworenen Debattenkultur. Denn die Umgangsformen der sogenannten Sozialen Medien haben längst auf die anderen Arenen übergegriffen, Politik und Journalismus spielen schon nach den neuen, erbarmungsloseren Regeln.
