Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death and dying experiences are not common across human race because humans do not share common cultural heritage and physical environment. The fact of death thus can be considered as socially constructed fact abounded by idiosyncratic religious beliefs and rituals existing within social life. It is almost impossible to have common consensual understanding of death and dying. This book tries to investigate various sources of knowledge about death in multiple disciplines from sociological lenses.

Book excerpt: The originality and depth of Gramsci's theory of hegemony is now evidenced in the wide-ranging intellectual applications within a growing corpus of research and writings that include social, political and cultural theory, historical interpretation, gender and globalization. The reason that hegemony has been so widely and diversely adopted lies in the unique way that Gramsci formulated the 'problematics' of structure/superstructure, coercion/consensus, materialism/idealism and regression/progression within the concept hegemony. However, in much of the contemporary literature the full complexity of hegemony is either obfuscated or ignored. Hegemony, through comprehensive and systematic analyses of Gramsci's formulation, a picture of hegemony as a complex syncretism of these dichotomies. In other words, hegemony is presented as a concept that is as much about aspiration and progressive politico-social relations as it is about regressive and dominative processes. Thus, the volume recognises and presents this complexity through a selection of contemporary theoretical as well as historico-social investigations that mark a significantly innovative moment in the work on hegemony.
