Reviews
"Drawing judiciously upon an impressive arsenal of sociological theory, Gabriel Barhaim's Public-Private Relations in Totalitarian States takes up the difficult task of explaining the fragile character of social order that remains essential to the functionality of community... The narrative is worldly without becoming elitist, sophisticated without becoming esoteric, poignant without becoming impassioned. The book bears witness to the secular but salvational work of playful discourse and modern reflexivity." --Keith Doubt, professor of sociology, Wittenberg University "Gabriel Barhaim discusses the crucial topic of the advancing global culture, which meets in its way and clashes with the persisting forces of local age-old cultural traditions, leading to problematic complexities in social relations, despite the overall Westernization and the rise of such new social phenomena as the network culture... [T]he reader will be challenged by the versatility and the profound sociological thinking underpinned by Gabriel Barhaim's vast knowledge and a most balanced view concerning the nature of our late-modern world." --Ernest Krausz, professor emeritus, Bar-Han University, Israel

Synopsis
This book argues that the transition by Western society to late modernity has weakened the social order, creating a quasi-anomic state that favors those conditions that place culture in a position of prominence. The preponderance of culture over social, with its affinity for profane and its immanent nature, is posited by the author to have a major impact on the fabric of social life and its implications especially on social solidarity. Gabriel A. Barhaim employs a number of ideas and concepts to illuminate the central theme of a feeble social order. Such concepts are, among others, crisis of reference, desacralization of the social order, the predominance of individual networks as a new form of social solidarity, overpowering of the public sphere, and the reduction in authority of collective representations. The persistent crisis of the social order--strongly visible in the disappearance of major ideologies on the one hand, and in the disintegration of the state and its institutions on the other hand--has been the impetus to cultural phenomena whose prevailing themes encode the fate of individuals, both symbolically and expressively. Barhaim regards the social order as the inspiring scene of action, while culture, with its diverse modes of expressions, provides guiding commentaries. In grappling with these topics in each chapter, the analysis reveals the many facets of culture and the many symbolic forms it takes. All of this provides the necessary commentaries needed to make sense of a bewildered social life, in the context of late modernity. These commentaries should be viewed mostly as a path to understanding the pressing social arrangements, interactions, practices, of contemporary life. Three out of the eight chapters are concerned with the East-Central European experience., This book argues that the transition by Western society to late modernity has weakened the social order, creating a quasi-anomic state that favors those conditions that place culture in a position of prominence

- u***u (731)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Six derniers moisAchat vérifiéCarefully packaged book- arrived wrapped in plastic bag and shipped in cardboard box. As a frequent book buyer I appreciate this as so many books are just crammed into a plastic shopping bag and sent on their way- sometimes always hanging out of the bag. I know that Midtown Book Seller books will arrive as described. Shipped promptly. I’d highly recommend them as a seller.

It looked almost new, in fact, but the pages did have some yellowing around the edges, a sign of its age. The seller did an excellent job of wrapping and packing the book for shipment, which I greatly appreciate! He has earned his 100% feedback rating, I'd say. I'm extremely pleased with the seller and this transaction. Thank you!And the Walls Came Tumbling Down: Greatest Closing Arguments Protecting Civil Li (#376028342866)
