Download or read book The Social Sense of the Human Experience written by Roberta Iannone and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-08-17 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why should we wonder about man and the human sense? What are the questions and answers we are seeking? Why should we read the work of Werner Sombart? Or rather, why should we re-read “this” Sombart? This book tracks the human sense in order to rediscover this compass against the current crisis of the humanistic conception of society. This crisis is manifest in a repositioning of society, which is no longer human by definition, in contrast to the past, when the term “human society” was a tautology and redundant. As such, the human element of society must be rediscovered. This book revitalizes the scientific sense of the human, which is almost anesthetized, often frustrated and belittled, sometimes confused and mistaken with something else, frequently misunderstood and made unrecognizable, but, precisely for this reason, which is increasingly essential today.

Download or read book The Unexpected in Action written by Antonio Cocozza and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-21 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a true knowledge-enhancing project, dealing with the forms of rationality at work in social life, which are so many, varied and complex. Published already in Spanish and Italian, it analyses the role played by rationality through the lens of social theories in order to propose a problematic interpretation of human action. Since there is nothing more practical than a good theory when seeking to understand our society, the book reflects on the theoretical approaches that provide useful categories by means of which to understand and interpret individual, organizational, and institutional action. It proposes an analysis of a wide variety of classics by eminent European and Anglo-American thinkers, such as Dahrendorf, Mannheim, Marx, Popper, Weber, Habermas, Luhmann, Machiavelli, Pareto, Ardigò, Cesareo, Parsons, Schütz, Alexander, Bauman, Beck, Sennett, Antiseri, Boudon, Sen, Simon, to shed light on the relationship between rationality, difficulties in thinking and extra-rationality. Finally, the reasons for unexpected action are investigated as well as the strategic role played by ethics, rationality and skills in postmodern societies on the basis of the contributions of Nussbaum and Piketty.

Download or read book Sociological Realism written by Andrea Maccarini and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-03-28 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sociological Realism presents a clear and updated discussion of the main tenets and issues of social theory, written by some of the top scholars within the critical realist and relational approach. It connects such approaches systematically to other strands of thought that are central in contemporary sociology, like systems theory and rational choice theory. Divided into three parts, social ontology, sociological theory, and methodology, each part includes a systematic presentation, a comment, and a wider discussion by the editors, thereby taking on the form of a dialogue among experts. This book is a uniquely blended and consistent conversation showing the convergence of European social theory on a critical realist and relational way of thinking. This volume is extremely important both for teaching purposes and for all those scholars who wish to get a fresh perspective on some deep dynamics of contemporary sociology.

Download or read book Sociology of Religion written by Roberto Cipriani and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sociology of Religion represents a documented introduction to the history of sociological thought as applied to religious phenomena. It examines both the substantive and functional definitions of religion that are more open, pluralistic, and not inscribed in a single explanatory horizon or within a single confessional perspective. The contributors' concerns are carefully written to show all sides of the argument. Roberto Cipriani argues for the simple definition that the sociology of religion is an application of sociological theories and methods to religious phenomena. Historically, close ties between sociology and the sociology of religion exist. The slow and uneven development of theory and methods affects the sociology of religion's development, but the latter has also benefited from increasing precision and scientific validity. Other sociological writers agree and disagree about different approaches. Some assume it is a militantly confessional or anti-confessional; others remain neutral within their work.

Download or read book Understanding Politics and Society written by Fabio de Nardis and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-26 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook presents political sociology as a connective social science that studies political phenomena by creating fruitful connections with other perspectives. The relationship between politics and society is more complex than ever due to the emergence of new power structures, forms of conflict organization and management, and social practices of political participation. Several scholars describe this historical phase as the 'de-politicization of representative politics'. The book addresses classical themes of and approaches to political sociology, but also dedicates several chapters to contemporary developments within political sociology, including, for instance, the role of the internet and bottom-up political communication in social movements. In addition, the volume acts as a professional tool for those scholars and researchers that are beginning to study political processes from a sociological perspective.

This book was released on 2020-04-09 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctor at the court and academic of the Modena and Padua Universities, Bernardino Ramazzini (1633-1714) lived in the second half of the seventeenth century. Without renouncing to his vocation as a doctor, he visited the craft workshops to identify the threats to health, examined the diseases of workers and proposed a variety of preventive measures. Aware of the need to avoid extremes of all kinds, he recommended moderation in all types of behaviour. The expression «prevention is far better than cure» summarises his precept. Through the description of the context in which he lived and the analysis of his observations and proposals, the essay explores Ramazzini’s main works by revisiting his thinking in a contemporary way, highlighting the modernity of his anticipatory reflections and focusing on his visionary ideas.

They relate to three areas, Strategic Management, Economics and Statistics, and Public Finance. These areas have not only been the subject of study of researchers who adhere to the international Association, Arethuse, but especially in recent years provide a useful opportunity for whoever operates in European countries (university researchers, spin-off, managers, entrepreneurs, local associations, public authorities, governmental and non- governmental financial institutions etc.) to enrich their knowledge. In this year with the Expo taking place in Italy, the issues concerning the quality and development of the people and territory have led to scientific fields of study and discussions that are of particular global relevance. The Universal Exposition of Milan places special emphasis on sustainable development and the new sense of globalization of economic and social phenomena. A great deal of research, the results of which are presented in this issue, provide useful contributions. They highlight the metrics to be used to promote the development of the territory; they study the impact of information technology in the tourism sector; they present studies on the most appropriate reconfiguration of relationships with retailers and the reconfiguration of supply chains; finally, special attention is paid to the redesign of management techniques and of inter- enterprise relations, in order to facilitate the growth of SMEs and the environment in which they are rooted.
