    Face-to-Face Sociality and Economic Change in the Post-Communist World

    de Christopher S. Swader ...
    Series series Routledge Advances in Sociology
    Modern capitalism favors values that undermine our face-to-face bonds with friends and family members.

While most observers blame the egoism and asocial behavior found in new free-market societies on their communist pasts, ... Leer más

  • Modernization, Cultural Change, and Democracy

    The Human Development Sequence

    de Ronald Inglehart, Christian Welzel ...
    This book demonstrates that people's basic values and beliefs are changing, in ways that affect their political, sexual, economic, and religious behaviour.

  • The End of Illusions

    Politics, Economy, and Culture in Late Modernity

    de Andreas Reckwitz ...
    Traducido por Valentine A. Pakis ...
    We live in a time of great uncertainty about the future. Those heady days of the late twentieth century, when the end of the Cold War seemed to be ushering in a new and more optimistic age, now seem like a distant memory. During the last couple of decades, we’ve been battered by one crisis after another and the idea that humanity is on a progressive path to a better future seems like an illusion ... Leer más

  • From Pleasure Machines to Moral Communities

    An Evolutionary Economics without Homo economicus

    de Geoffrey M. Hodgson ...
    Are humans at their core seekers of their own pleasure or cooperative members of society? Paradoxically, they are both. Pleasure-seeking can take place only within the context of what works within a defined community, and central to any community are the evolved codes and principles guiding appropriate behavior, or morality. The complex interaction of morality and self-interest is at the heart of ... Leer más

  • Beyond the Market

    The Social Foundations of Economic Efficiency

    de Jens Beckert ...
    Traducido por Barbara Harshav ...
    Beyond the Market launches a sociological investigation into economic efficiency. Prevailing economic theory, which explains efficiency using formalized rational choice models, often simplifies human behavior to the point of distortion. Jens Beckert finds such theory to be particularly weak in explaining such crucial forms of economic behavior as cooperation, innovation, and action under ... Leer más
