(P/B) SOCIETY UNDER SIEGE
Εκδότης: POLITY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3482-0023

Society is under siege -- under attack on two fronts: from the global frontier-land where old structures and rules do not hold and new ones are slow to take shape, and from the fluid, undefined domain of life politics. The space between these two fronts, until recently ruled by the sovereign nation-state and identified by social scientists as `society' is ever more difficult to conceive of as a self-enclosed entity. And this confronts the established wisdom of the social sciences with a new challenge: sovereignty and power are becoming sep...

(P/B) CONSUMING LIFE
Εκδότης: POLITY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3482-0289

With the advent of liquid modernity, the society of producers is transformed into a society of consumers. In this new consumer society, individuals become simultaneously the promoters of commodities and the commodities they promote. They are, at one and the same time, the merchandise and the marketer, the goods and the travelling salespeople. They all inhabit the same social space that is customarily described by the term 'the market'. The test they need to pass in order to acquire the social prizes they covet requires them to recast thems...

(P/B) OF GOD AND MAN
Εκδότης: POLITY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3482-0485

In this engaging dialogue, Zygmunt Bauman, sociologist and philosopher, and Stanislaw Obirek, theologian and cultural historian, explore the place of spirituality and religion in the world today and in the everyday lives of individuals. Their conversation ranges from the plight of monotheistic religions cast onto a polytheistic world stage to the nature of religious experience and its impact on human worldviews and life strategies; from Messianic and Promethean ideas of redemption and salvation to the possibility and prospects of inter-rel...

(P/B) ON THE WORLD AND OURSELVES
Εκδότης: POLITY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3482-0484

Unde malum from where does evil come? That is the question that has plagued humankind ever since Eve, seduced by the serpent, tempted Adam to taste the forbidden fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Throughout history the awareness of good and evil has always been linked to the awareness of choice and to the freedom and responsibility to choose this is what makes us human. But the responsibility to choose is a burden that weighs heavily on our shoulders, and the temptation to hand this over to someone else be they a demagogue o...

(P/B) MANAGEMENT IN A LIQUID MODERN WORLD
Εκδότης: POLITY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3482-0486

Management has been one of the driving forces of the last century, indeed an idea and a language that colonized most other institutions, areas of human activity and walks of life, even those that had until recently been regarded as completely unmanageable, such as art, academia and creativity. Some it supported and others it destroyed, but there are few areas in modern societies that have been untouched by it. What is the meaning of management now almost omnipresent and all-powerful in our current bleak times, in our current state of 'int...

(P/B) IN SEARCH OF POLITICS
Εκδότης: POLITY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3482-0285

We live in a world which no longer questions itself, which lives from one day to another managing successive crises and struggling to brace itself for new ones, without knowing where it is going and without trying to plan the itinerary. And everything important in our lives - livelihood, human bonds, partnerships, neighbourhood, goals worth pursuing and dangers to avoid - feels transient, precarious, vulnerable, insecure, uncertain, risky. Is there a connection between the shape of the world we inhabit and the way we live our lives? Explor...

(P/B) LIVING ON BORROWED TIME
CONVERSATIONS WITH CITLALI ROVIROSA-MADRAZO
Εκδότης: POLITY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3482-0372

The global financial crisis has shattered the illusion that all was well with capitalism and forced us to confront the great challenges we face today with a new sense of urgency. Few are better placed to do this than Zygmunt Bauman, a social thinker whose writings on liquid modernity have pioneered a new way of seeing the world in which we live at the dawn of the 21st Century. Our liquid modern world is characterized by the transition from a society of producers to a society of consumers, the natural extension of which is the society of pe...

Η ΕΡΓΑΣΙΑ, Ο ΚΑΤΑΝΑΛΩΤΙΣΜΟΣ ΚΑΙ ΟΙ ΝΕΟΠΤΩΧΟΙ
Εκδότης: ΜΕΤΑΙΧΜΙΟ
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2760-0585

Το βιβλίο αυτό εξετάζει την ιστορία της φτώχειας τους δύο τελευταίους αιώνες και εντοπίζει τις διαφορές μεταξύ του να είσαι φτωχός σε μια κοινωνία παραγωγών και πλήρους απασχόλησης και του να είσαι φτωχός σε μια κοινωνία καταναλωτών. Η επιχειρηματολογία του συγγραφέα μπορεί να συνοψιστεί σε μια σειρά από ερωτήματα: Είναι δυνατόν να καταπολεμηθεί η φτώχεια με τα πολιτικώς "ορθόδοξα" μέτρα που εφαρμόζονται σήμερα; Μήπως πρέπει να αναζητήσουμε καινούργιες λύσεις, όπως ο διαχωρισμός του δικαιώματος στη ζωή από την πώληση της εργασίας, και η θέ...

(P/B) CULTURE IN A LIQUID MODERN WORLD
Εκδότης: POLITY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3482-0329

In its original formulation, "culture" was intended to be an agent for change, a mission undertaken with the aim of educating "the people" by bringing the best of human thought and creativity to them. But in our contemporary liquid-modern world, culture has lost its missionary role and has become a means of seduction: it seeks no longer to enlighten the people but to seduce them. The function of culture today is not to satisfy existing needs but to create new ones, while simultaneously ensuring that existing needs remain permanently unfulf...

(P/B) THIS IS NOT A DIARY
Εκδότης: POLITY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3482-0465

This is not a diary: while these observations were recorded in autumn 2010 and spring 2011 in the form of dated entries, they are not a personal reflection but an attempt to capture signs of our times in their movement - possibly at birth, at a stage when they are still barely perceptible, and in any case before they have matured into common, all too familiar forms, escaping our attention due to their banality. Some will perhaps settle in our daily life for a long time to come, others will fade and vanish before they would otherwise have a...

Η ΜΕΤΑΝΕΩΤΕΡΙΚΟΤΗΤΑ ΚΑΙ ΤΑ ΔΕΙΝΑ ΤΗΣ
Εκδότης: ΨΥΧΟΓΙΟΣ
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 4580-0669

Όταν ο Φρόιντ έγραφε το κλασικό του κείμενο «Πολιτισμός Πηγή Δυστυχίας» τον απασχολούσε η λειτουργία της απώθησης. Για τον Φρόιντ, ο σύγχρονος πολιτισμός στηρίζεται στην απαγόρευση της αυθορμησίας και στον περιορισμό της αυτοέκφρασης. Σήμερα, στη μετανεωτερική εποχή, ο Φρόιντ, υποστηρίζει ο Bauman, έχει πλέον ξεπεραστεί ως προς όλες τις απόψεις του αυτές. Στην εποχή μας, η ελευθερία του ατόμου αποτελεί την κυρίαρχη αξία, το κριτήριο εκείνο πάνω στο οποίο εδράζονται όλοι οι κοινωνικοί κανόνες. Η μετανεωτερικότητα κυριαρχείται από τη θέληση...

(P/B) COLLATERAL DAMAGE
SOCIAL INEQUALITIES IN A GLOBAL AGE
Εκδότης: POLITY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3482-0328

The term 'collateral damage' has recently been added to the vocabulary of military forces to refer to the unintended consequences of armed interventions, consequences that are unplanned but nevertheless damaging and often very costly in human and personal terms. But collateral damage is not unique to the world of armed intervention - it is also one of the most salient and striking dimensions of contemporary social inequality. The inflammable mixture of growing social inequality and the rising volume of human suffering marginalized as 'coll...

(P/B) TOWARDS A CRITICAL SOCIOLOGY
AN ESSAY ON COMMONSENSE AND IMAGINATION
Εκδότης: ROUTLEDGE
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3707-2092

For the better part of its history sociology shared with commonsense its assumption of the 'nature-like' character of society - and consequently developed as the science of unfreedom. In this powerful and engaging work, first published in 1976, Professor Bauman outlines the historical roots of such a science and describes how the new trends in sociology emerging from phenomenology and existentialism do not challenge this preoccupation. Rather, he claims, they deepen and extend it by stressing the key role of commonsense, particularly the w...

(P/B) 44 LETTERS FROM THE LIQUID MODERN WORLD
Εκδότης: POLITY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3482-0310

This liquid modern world of ours, like all liquids, cannot stand still and keep its shape for long. Everything keeps changing - the fashions we follow, the events that intermittently catch our attention, the things we dream of and things we fear. And we, the inhabitants of this world in flux, feel the need to adjust to its tempo by being 'flexible' and constantly ready to change. We want to know what is going on and what is likely to happen, but what we get is an avalanche of information that threatens to overwhelm us. How are we to sift ...

(P/B) WORK, CONSUMERISM AND THE NEW POOR
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3063-0114

It is one thing to be poor in a society of producers and universal employment; it is quite a different thing to be poor in a society of consumers, in which life projects are built around consumer choices rather than on work, professional skills or jobs. Where 'being poor' was once linked to being unemployed, today it draws its meaning primarily from the plight of a flawed consumer. This has a significant effect on the way living in poverty is experienced and on the prospects for redeeming its misery. Work, Consumerism and the New Poor trac...

(P/B) CONVERSATIONS WITH ZYGMUNT BAUMAN
Εκδότης: POLITY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3482-0015

Zygmunt Bauman is one of the leading figures in contemporary social thought. His work ranges across issues of ethics, culture and politics. It never forgets that social thought ought to help men and women make sense of their lives and aspire towards something different. His books and essays always focus on the here and now: violence and moral indifference, globalization, consumerism, politics and individualization. They cast a sharp eye on the panaceas of `there is no alternative'; the embrace of community and the fads of the `counselling ...
