Marshall's writings have been concerned with the emergence of a modern class structure based on the divisions inherent in industrial society in his native Britain....

Amsterdam, New York, Oxford: North Holland, 1984. Ex-Library. Hardcover. Very Good/None. Advanced Textbooks in Economics Dark red boards with white titling on front and spine. Adhesive residue on rear end paper and pastedowns are scarred where a bookplate and sticker were removed. Text is unmarked. Binding is sound. 8vo. BOOK INFO: 'The theory of collective choice belongs to several disciplines. Economics is one of them but not the only one. While this book is part of a series in 'mathematica economics texts' no attempt has been made to confine the treatment to economic problems exclusively. Indeed the approach of this book is based on the belief that the problem cannot be satisfactorily discussed within the confines of economics. While collective choice is a crucial aspect of economics (notably of welfare economics, planning theory and public economics), the subject relates closely to political science, in particular to the theory of the state and the theory of decision procedures.

'The aim of the book is the analysis of the processes that govern the associations among men as a prolegomenon of a theory of social structure. The problem is to derive complex from simpler processes without the reductionist fallacy of ignoring emergent properties. Social exchange as a central principle of social life, which is derived from primitive terms, and from which complex social forces are derived. The problem of tautology, and the question of whether the principles advanced are culture-bound.' (-from the…

Ships from our family-owned, independent bookstore in the US. BOOK INFO: The Language of Experience examines the relationship between literacy and change--both personal and social. Gorzelsky studies three cases, two historical and one contemporary, that speak to key issues on the national education agenda. 'Struggle' is a community literacy program for urban teens and parents. It encourages them to reflect on, articulate, and revise their life goals and design and implement strategies for reaching them. To provide historical context for this and other contemporary efforts in using literacy to promote social change, Gorzelsky analyzes two radical religious and political movements of the English Civil Wars and the 1930s unionizing movement in the Pittsburgh region. Charting the similarities and differences in the…
