Work and Power in Maale Ethopia

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Donham, Donald L., PUBLISHER: Columbia University Press, Over the past two decades, the ethnography of Africa has turned from a preoccupation with system and structure to an overriding concern for process and history.

Gender, Work, and Economy: Unpacking the Global Economy

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gottfried, Heidi, PUBLISHER: Polity Press, This engaging new text uses a feminist lens to crack open the often hidden worlds of gender and work, addressing enduring questions about how structural inequalities are produced and why they persist. Making visible the social relationships that drive the global economy, the book explores how economic transformations not only change the way we work, but how we live our lives. The full extent of changing patterns of employment and the current financial crisis cannot be fully understood in the confines of narrow conceptions of work and economy. Feminists address this shortcoming by developing both a theory and a political movement aimed at unveiling the power relations inherent in old and new forms of work. By providing an analysis of gender, work, and the economy, Heidi Gottfried brings to light the many faces of power from the bedroom to the boardroom. A discussion of globalization is threaded throughout the book to uncover the impact of increasing global interconnections, and vivid case studies are included, from industrialized countries such as the US and the global cities of New York, London, and Tokyo, as well as from developing countries and the emerging global cities of Beijing, Shanghai, and Dubai. This comprehensive analysis of gender and work in a global economy, incorporating sociology, geography, and political economy perspectives, will be a valued companion to students in gender studies and across the social sciences more generally.

Work in Retirement: The Persistence of an American

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Givechian, Fatemeh, PUBLISHER: University Press of America, Investigates the notion of 'work' as a cultural category in the U.S. through the study of senior citizens, a stratum of people who have progressed beyond the work stage. Conducted primarily at a senior citizen center with about members over the age of 55, the research is both diachronic and synchronic. The former consists of library research and the study of the senior center archives in its 25-year history. The latter mainly consists of participant observation in all the activities offered by the center, and interviewing the elderly. While existing studies of senior centers portray their function as social and recreational, this study argues that the cultural significance of these centers lies in their function as a substitute for work. The more the activities resemble work, the more they are welcomed by the members. Contents: Preliminary Discussion, an Introduction; Work, the Central Element of American Culture; Ethnographic Data and the Senior Center; ' Work, ' Continuation of Work after Retirement; Beyond the Senior Center; and Symbolic Analysis, a Holistic Perspective

The Economic Foundations of Government

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Holcombe, Randall G. / Krondorfer, Bjorn, PUBLISHER: New York University Press, This welcome work argues that government is the result of a contract arrived at by individuals with varying bargaining power. Holcombe explores such issues as why the political system protects individual's rights, why individuals agree to political institutions that give their governments extensive power, and why even the most powerful government benefits from constitutional rules which constrain its power. He arrives at a theory of rights, constitutions, and government that does not rely, as economists have traditionally done, on value judgments. Very much at the cutting edge of economic thinking, this book will interest undergraduates and professionals in the fields of economics, political science, and government.
