The Established and the Outsiders is a classic text from one of the major figures of world sociology. This new edition includes a theoretical introduction, published in English for the first time.In Norbert Elias′s hands, a local community study of tense relations between an established group and outsiders - with no other discernible difference between them - becomes a microcosm that illuminates a wide range of sociological configurations including racial, ethnic, class and gender relations. The book examines the mechanisms of stigmatisation, taboo and gossip, monopolisation of power, collective fantasy and ′we′ and ′they′ images which support and reinforce divisions in society. Developing aspects of Elias′s thinking that relate his work to current sociological concerns, it presents the fullest elaboration of his concepts of mutual identification and functional democratisation. The Established and the Outsiders not only brings out the important theoretical implications of micro-analysis but also demonstrates the significance of such detailed study analysis for better sociological theory. It is essential reading for students and scholars in social theory, sociology and anthropology.

Dvorskou společnost Norbert Elias poprvé vydal v roce 1969. Tato kniha představuje široce pojatou analýzu utváření se společenských a sociálních vztahů v dvorském prostředí v období starého režimu. Středobodem autorova zájmu je dvorská společnost francouzského krále Ludvíka XIV., jež podle jeho názoru vytvořila zcela nové modely společenského chování aristokracie, jež v jistých proměnách přežívaly hluboko do 19. století a jež i při zániku monarchií ve většině západního světa ovlivňují chování politických i kulturních elit do současnosti.

Eliasova kniha představuje zásadní text pro moderní myšlení o moderní i předmoderní společnosti. Ačkoli byla napsána již na konci 30. let 20. století, kdy bez většího zájmu zcela zapadla, patří dnes k fundamentálním knihám sociokulturního dějepisu. Elias v ní stopuje nesnadný proces civilizace, proces, jehož genezi zachycuje na základě proměn stolování, hygienických návyků, sexuálních praktik, galantního chování či způsobů sociálně odlišného oblékání. Své teze, dnes v mnohém sice zpochybněné, avšak jako celek nadále velmi inspirující, postavil především na literárních textech. Jejich prostřednictvím dospěl k závěru, že civilizační chování získávalo svou podobu prvotně v prostředí aristokratických elit. Odtud pak, často ve zjednodušené formě, pronikalo do nižších pater společnosti, především mezi měšťany, kteří je recipovali, aniž by je však originálním způsobem rozvíjeli.

Managing environmental issues in planning decisions is now an essential part of the process. The increasing pressure to develop brownfield sites and the publicity around the damage caused by air pollution are just two of the drivers for this growing area of planning practice.The difficulty is that the law relating to these problems is disparate and overseen by different agencies, with the answers hidden deep in often obscure guidance, regulations and case law.

Since the reforms of 1978, China has experienced an explosion of growth that not only radically changed the country's economic and social conditions, but also the international economic and strategic scenario. For several decades, the Chinese economy grew by an average of 10% annually, an unprecedented phenomenon. Other Asian countries, such as Japan or South Korea, also had periods of rapid growth and transformation, but in the case of China, the enormous size of its economy was added, which determined an equally enormous impact on the world. This book discusses China’s economic development from the perspective of five leading economists from outside of China. It analyses both the internal and external impact of China’s economy over the past 40 years, up to the present, when China faces unprecedented challenges and uncertainties arising from the USA’s economic and trade offensive.

In this book, Elías José Palti analyzes the writings of key thinkers who have theorised the present situation of Marxism: Perry Anderson, Fredric Jameson, Ernesto Laclau, Slavoj Žižek, Judith Butler, Alain Badiou and Jacques Derrida. His aim is to interrogate what appears to be the final crisis of Marxist political tradition from a historical-intellectual point of view, placing it within a broader framework, which is the present crisis of politics, at large. Yet, it also reveals why we cannot, even then, avoid confronting it, stubbornly trying to think of what seems to be unthinkable today, namely, the idea of an emancipatory horizon.Unlike traditional works of political philosophy, The Crisis of Marxism: A Historical-Intellectual Problem does not intend to provide political or philosophical answers to today’s dislocation of politics. Instead, it aspires to clarify the nature of the questions that such a situation raises and demonstrates why the current crisis of Marxism contains some fundamental clues for it.

Fear is a universal emotion and is typically depicted as a despicable one. While fear is regarded as natureÂ’s imperfect wisdom, often undesirable, and a sign of weakness, its role in maintaining human life is overlooked. In the middle of ubiquitous repulsion against fear, there is minuscule literature on the beneficial effects of fear and the consequences of fearlessness. Recent research has thrown light into the unconscious processing of fear. In sharp contrast to the existing literature, this book argues that fear, overriding all other emotions, operates relentlessly in the unconscious mind as a motivating force and renders life compatible with survival. Fear appeals can bring healthy behavioral changes; the stronger the appeal, the more persuasive it is. Moderate anxiety can improve performance that involves dominant responses. Social anxiety is regarded as the root cause of conscientiousness. This hypothesis is supported by the latest research that reveals impaired fear processing in patients with psychopathy, a condition that is associated with crimes. This book expands the concept of eustress, a positive reaction to stress, and describes the beneficial aspects of fear. The book gives a twist to the conventional view of fear as an unwanted emotion and draws a new hypothesis ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Kniha pojednává o dvou pozoruhodných, i když divadly poněkud opomíjených Janáčkových operách Osud a Výlety páně Broučkovy. Obě díla přišla na svět po dlouholeté skladatelově práci na jeho snad nejslavnější opeře Její pastorkyňa, během níž nalezl pro realistický námět adekvátní a zcela osobitý hudební jazyk, postavený na mluveném projevu. Ve svých následujících operách pak Janáček hledal nové způsoby, jak dále rozvíjet své skladatelské principy a užít je ve spojení s různorodými náměty. Právě období vzniku oper Osud a Výlety páně Broučkovy tak patří k Janáčkovým nejzajímavějším tvůrčím, ale i osobním životním etapám. Tyto kompozice tvoří spojnici mezi Její pastorkyní a vrcholnými hudebnědramatickými díly z období Janáčkova "velkého stáří", v nichž skladatel po dlouhé tvůrčí cestě dospěl k dokonalé shodě slova, myšlenky a hudby. Kniha o operách Osud a Výlety páně Broučkovy přináší o této nesnadné cestě svědectví v podobě mnoha informací o skladatelových inspiracích, zvažovaných námětech ke zhudebnění, neslavné spolupráci s literáty, Janáčkových setkáních s hudebními díly, která mu otevřela oči, ale také o vyrovnání se se ztrátou milované dcery Olgy.

Success requires a continuous influx of new ideas, new challenges, and critical thought, and the interpersonal climate must not suppress, silence, ridicule or intimidate. Not every idea is good, and yes there are stupid questions, and yes dissent can slow things down, but talking through these things is an essential part of the creative process. People must be allowed to voice half-finished thoughts, ask questions from left field, and brainstorm out loud; it creates a culture in which a minor flub or momentary lapse is no big deal, and where actual mistakes are owned and corrected, and where the next left-field idea could be the next big thing. This book explores this culture ...

''can we doubt ... that individuals having any advantage, however slight, over others, would have the best chance of surviving and of procreating their kind?''In the Origin of Species (1859) Darwin challenged many of the most deeply held beliefs of the Western world. His insistence on the immense length of the past and on the abundance of life-forms, present and extinct, dislodged man from his central position in creation and called into question the role of the Creator. He showed that new species are achieved by natural selection, and that absence of plan is an inherent part of the evolutionary process.Darwin''s prodigious reading, experimentation, and observations on his travels fed into his great work, which draws on material from the Galapagos Islands to rural Staffordshire, from English back gardens to colonial encounters. The present edition provides a detailed and accessible discussion of his theories and adds an account of the immediate responses to the book on publication. The resistances as well as the enthusiasms of the first readers cast light on recent controversies, particularly concerning questions of design and descent.

''Conspicuous consumption of valuable goods is a means of reputability to the gentleman of leisure.''In The Theory of the Leisure Class Thorstein Veblen sets out ''to discuss the place and value of the leisure class as an economic factor in modern life''. In so doing he produced a landmark study of affluent American society that exposes, with brilliant ruthlessness, the habits of production and waste that link invidious business tactics and barbaric social behaviour. Veblen''s analysis of the evolutionary process sees greed as the overriding motive in the modern economy; with an impartial gaze he examines the human cost paid when social institutions exploit the consumption of unessential goods for the sake of personal profit. Fashion, beauty, animals, sports, the home, the clergy, scholars - all are assessed for their true usefulness and found wanting. The targets of Veblen''s coruscating satire are as evident today as they were a century ago, and his book still has the power to shock and enlighten. Veblen''s uncompromising arguments and the influential literary force of his writing are assessed in Martha Banta''s Introduction.

In contemporary and Edwardian London, two women are grieving the loss of a loved one. Stella, turning thirty, is increasingly isolated after her mother died of cancer; Julia, surrounded by friends, is longing for solitude as she mourns her daughter, a young photographer who died after her return from an expedition in the jungle of Sri Lanka. Mysteriously connected across time and space by a haunting image, each explores, in her own voice, the complexities of the mother-daughter bond and family estrangement. From the banks of the Thames in present-day south-east London to the coast of East Devon and the Sri Lankan rainforest a hundred years earlier, Charlotte Beeston''s delicate debut novel moves with aching lucidity between tenderness and raw emotion. Charting the ebb and flow of the grieving process, The White Flower captures the impact of loneliness on the female psyche and the permanence of love, art and friendship.

In Trauma and the Soul, Donald Kalsched continues the exploration he began in his first book, The Inner World of Trauma (1996)—this time going further into the mystical or spiritual moments that often occur around the intimacies of psychoanalytic work. Through extended clinical vignettes, including therapeutic dialogue and dreams, he shows how depth psychotherapy with trauma’s survivors can open both analytic partners to "another world" of non-ordinary reality in which daimonic powers reside, both light and dark. This mytho-poetic world, he suggests, is not simply a defensive product of our struggle with the harsh realities of living as Freud suggested, but is an everlasting fact of human experience—a mystery that is often at the very center of the healing process, and yet at other times, strangely resists it.With these "two worlds" in focus, Kalsched explores a variety of themes as he builds, chapter by chapter, an integrated psycho-spiritual approach to trauma and its treatment including:images of the lost soul-child in dreams and how this "child" represents an essential core of aliveness that is both protected and persecuted by the psyche’s defenses;Dante’s guided descent into the Inferno of Hell as a paradigm for the psychotherapy process and its inevitable struggle with ...
