Contemporary Death Bed

John Tercier
Data wydania: 2005
How do we picture ourselves dying? A 'death with dignity', the darkened room, and a few murmured farewells? Or in the lights' flashing, siren wailing, chest-pumping maelstrom of the back of an ambulance hurtling towards an ER? Over the last decade, the two most robust vehicles of popular culture: film and television, have opted for the latter scenario. This book examines the hi-tech death of the twenty-first century as enacted in our hospitals and as portrayed on our TV screens.

Globalizations of Organized Labour

Autor: George Myconos
Data wydania: 2005
Myconos explores the ways in which organized labour has globalized since 1945. Using two 'touchstone' indicators - the extent of cross-border integration, and the autonomy vis-a-vis the state - the book reveals a counterintuitive process: network globalization involves a continuing orientation towards the state. The book not only seeks to identify organized labour's trajectory on the macro plane, but also to provide a more precise meaning of the term 'globalization' as it relates to agency.

Rezeption & Reflexion

Autor: De Berg
Data wydania: 2000
Niklas Luhmann hat eine soziologische Theorie entwickelt, die alle wichtigen Funktionsbereiche der Gesellschaft behandelt und damit in ein Konkurrenzverhältnis zu solchen Beschreibungen tritt, die in wissenschaftlichen Disziplinen angefertigt werden, welche sich auf die Beobachtung je eines gesellschaftlichen Funktionssystems spezialisiert haben. Diese Fachdisziplinen sind durch spezifische Loyalitäten zu ihren eigenen Traditionen sowie zu dem Operieren ihres jeweiligen Funktionsbereichs gekennzeichnet, so dass eine einfache Übernahme der soziologischen Fremdbeschreibung unwahrscheinlich ist. Auf der Grundlage dieser von der Luhmann'schen Gesellschaftstheorie selbst nahe gelegten Annahme wird mit dem vorliegenden Band der soziologischen Systemtheorie außerhalb der
