During the 1990s Rio de Janeiro earned the epithet of 'divided city,' an image underscored by the contrast between its upper-class buildings and nearby hillside 'favelas.' The city's cultural production, however, has been shaped by porous boundaries and multi-ethnic encounters. Drawing on a broad range of historical, theoretical and literary sources, Porous City generates new ways of understanding Rio's past, its role in the making of Brazilian culture, and its significance to key global debates about modernity and urban practices.This book offers an original perspective on Rio de Janeiro that

Bøkene er skrevet på dansk. Bøgerne er en indføring i de forskellige samfundsteoretiske traditioner, og de dertil knyttede begreber. Her foreligger nu en revideret 6. udgave. I 6. udgaven af Klassisk og moderne samfundsteori er alle kapitler revideret og opdateret. Det gælder både i forhold til ny litteratur og nye teoribrydninger. Yderligere er seks helt nye kapitler blevet tilføjet. Alle bogens kapitler er derudover blevet beriget med refleksionsspørgsmål til brug for læseren; studerende såvel som undervisere, så bogen er nem at anvende hjemme og i undervisning. I bogens første del er hovedvægten lagt på samfundsteorier, der er udviklet fra og med nationalstatens konsolidering og industrialismens og kapitalismens gennembrud i 1800-tallet – dvs. teorier, som findes hos bl.a. Karl Marx, Herbert Spencer, Émile Durkheim, Max Weber og Georg Simmel. I anden del sættes der fokus på teorier, som har præget udviklingen frem til i dag – bl.a. sociologiske tænkere som Jürgen Habermas, Pierre Bourdieu, Michel Foucault, Niklas Luhmann, Anthony Giddens, Zygmunt Bauman, Ulrich Beck, Axel Honneth og Bruno Latour samt mere tværgående teoribygninger som diskursanalyse, fænomenologi, relationel teori, pragmatisme, neoinstitutionalisme og rational choice-teori. Endelig sætter bogens tredje del fokus på centrale samfundsteoretiske temaer såsom medborgerskab, stat, migration og køn. En fyldig litteraturliste, der medtager både originalværker, skandinaviske oversættelser og den vigtigste sekundære litteratur på området, suppleret med et omfattende navne- og emneregister gør bogen anvendelig som opslagsværk og som redskab til litteratursøgning. Klassisk og moderne samfundsteori er skrevet af danske, norske og svenske sociologer med undtagelse af et enkelt kapitel forfattet af en amerikansk sociolog.

Smertelig vakkert om vennskap og naturlengsel - fra Italias nye forfatterstjerne. «De åtte fjellene» forteller historien om vennskapet mellom Pietro og Bruno. De kommer fra to ulike verdener, men har somrene sammen, ved fjellet Monte Rosa. Bruno vokser opp i landsbyen nær fjellet, mens Pietros foreldre, som ellers er bundet til karrierene sine i Milano, stadig lengter tilbake til naturen og fjellene og hver sommer leier et hus i den avsidesliggende dalen. Pietros far er en tidligere eventyrer som tynges av savnet etter fjellet, og som i sitt ønske om å skape sønnen i sitt bilde, på mange måter tynger ham også. Bruno representerer et annet slags naturmenneske. På sitt fåmælte vis, men med stor omsorg for hverandre, utvikler de to guttene et unikt vennskap. «En stor fortelling om vennskap og om hva det vil si å bli voksen.» Vanity Fair

Reassembling the Social is a fundamental challenge from one of the world's leading social theorists to how we understand society and the 'social'. Bruno Latour's contention is that the word 'social', as used by Social Scientists, has become laden with assumptions to the point where it has become misnomer. When the adjective is applied to a phenomenon, it is used to indicate a stablilized state of affairs, a bundle of ties that in due course may be used to account for another phenomenon. But Latour also finds the word used as if it described a type of material, in a comparable way to an adjective such as 'wooden' or 'steely'. Rather thansimply indicating what is already assembled together, it is now used in a way that makes assumptions about the nature of what is assembled. It has become a word that designates two distinct things: a process of assembling; and a type of material, distinct from others. Latour shows why 'the social' cannot be thought of as a kind of material or domain, and disputes attempts to provide a 'social explanations' of other states of affairs. While these attempts have been productive (and probably necessary) in the past, the very success of the social sciences mean that they are largely no longer so. At the present stage it is no longer possible to inspect the precise constituents entering the social domain. Latour returns to the original meaning of 'the social' to redefine the notion, and allow it to trace connections again. It will then be possible to resume the traditional goal of the social sciences, but using more refined tools. Drawing on his extensive work examining the 'assemblages' of nature, Latour finds it necessary to scrutinize thoroughly the exact content of what is assembled under the umbrella of Society. This approach, a 'sociology of associations', has become known as Actor-Network-Theory, and this book is an essential introduction both for those seeking to understand Actor-Network Theory, or the ideas of one of its most influential proponents.

Forfatteren viser i denne boken den viktige rollen mange okkulte retninger spilte i renessansen, og hvordan disse var med på å forme selve epoken og ettertiden. I fokus er filosofen, naturvitenskapsmannen og den kjetterdømte Giordano Bruno. Avgjørende for renessansens okkultisme var gjenoppdagelsen av skriftene tilskrevet Hermes Trismegistos, som ble ansett for den mest opprinnelige vismann, eldre enn både Moses og Platon.

Her er en roman som hvisker om intime betroelser og lar oss få del i fortrolige samtaler. Legen Bruno Sachs har slått seg ned i en liten fransk provinsby, og gjennom hans pasienters fortellinger kommer vi inn i hans praksis. Vi ser ham i rutinekontroller og ved alvorlig sykdom. Hans sekretær, et par kolleger, noen venner og en kvinne som blir hans kjæreste utfyller bildet. Samtidig vokser det fram en fortelling om et samfunn. Livets små og store drama kommer legen for øret. Her er familietragedier, historier om menneskelig svakhet og nød, men også motstand og stolthet. DOKTOR SACHS' LIDELSE handler om liv og død, slik det rykker nært for en lege som lytter.

Winner of the Bruno Kreisky Prize, Karl Renner InstitutA Financial Times Best Economics Book of the Year An Economist Best Book of the Year A Livemint Best Book of the YearOne of the world's leading economists of inequality, Branko Milanovic presents a bold new account of the dynamics that drive inequality on a global scale. Drawing on vast data sets and cutting-edge research, he explains the benign and malign forces that make inequality rise and fall within and among nations. He also reveals who has been helped the most by globalization, who has been held back, and what policies might tilt the balance toward economic justice."The data [Milanovic] provides offer a clearer picture of great economic puzzles, and his bold theorizing chips away at tired economic orthodoxies."-The Economist"Milanovic has written an outstanding book...Informative, wide-ranging, scholarly, imaginative and commendably brief. As you would expect from one of the world's leading experts on this topic, Milanovic has added significantly to important recent works by Thomas Piketty, Anthony Atkinson and Francois Bourguignon...Ever-rising inequality looks a highly unlikely combination with any genuine democracy. It is to the credit of Milanovic's book that it brings out these dangers so clearly, along with the important global successes of the past few decades.-Martin Wolf, Financial Times

Science and technology have immense authority and influence in our society, yet their working remains little understood. The conventional perception of science in Western societies has been modified in recent years by the work of philosophers, sociologists and historians of science. In this book Bruno Latour brings together these different approaches to provide a lively and challenging analysis of science, demonstrating how social context and technical content are both essential to a proper understanding of scientific activity. Emphasizing that science can only be understood through its practice, the author examines science and technology in action: the role of scientific literature, the activities of laboratories, the institutional context of science in the modern world, and the means by which inventions and discoveries become accepted. From the study of scientific practice he develops an analysis of science as the building of networks. Throughout, Bruno Latour shows how a lively and realistic picture of science in action alters our conception of not only the natural sciences but also the social sciences and the sociology of knowledge in general.This stimulating book, drawing on a wealth of examples from a wide range of scientific activities, will interest all philosophers, sociologists and historians of science, scientists and engineers, and students of the philosophy of social science and the sociology of knowledge.
