Book excerpt: A passionate call to rediscover the political and emotional joy that emerges when we share our lives In an era of increasing individualism, we have never been more isolated and dispirited. A paradox confronts us. While research and technology find new ways to measure contentment and popular culture encourages us to think of happiness as a human right, misery is abundant. Segal believes we have lost the art of “radical happiness”—the liberation that comes with transformative, collective joy. She argues that instead of obsessing about our own well-being we should seek fulfilment in the lives of others. Examining her own experience in the women’s movement, Segal looks at the relationship between love and sex, and the scope for utopian thinking as a means to a better future. She also shows how the gaps in care that come from the diminishing role of the welfare state must be replaced by alternative ways of living together and looking after one another. In this brilliant and provocative book, Segal proposes that the power of true happiness can only be discovered collectively.

Download or read book Economic Prospects - East and West written by Jan Winiecki and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1987, this is an analysis of the contemporary breakdown of political and economic systems within the Eastern European communist countries. Rather than passively following the developments of this crisis, the author seeks instead to identify the reasons for failure and to examine alternative policies that offer solutions to these problems. Jan Winiecki’s work offers a comparative study of the Soviet-type economies of the East with the market economies of the West; providing a cause and effect analysis of each model, with possible scenarios for their future prospects.

Download or read book Capitalism written by Fred L. Block and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virtually everyone—left, right, and center—believes that capitalist economies are autonomous, coherent, and regulated by their own internal laws. This view is an illusion. The reality is that economies organized around the pursuit of private profit are contradictory, incoherent, and heavily shaped by politics and governmental action. But the illusion remains hugely consequential because it has been embraced by political and economic elites who are convinced that they are powerless to change this system. The result is cycles of raised hopes followed by disappointment as elected officials discover they have no legitimate policy tools that can deliver what the public wants. In Capitalism, leading economic sociologist Fred L. Block argues that restoring the vitality of the United States and the world economy can be accomplished only with major reforms on the scale of the New Deal and the post–World War II building of new global institutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welfare Theory and Social Policy provides an introduction to, and development of, current debates about the nature of welfare. It will be essential reading for all students and lecturers of social policy and the politics of the welfare state. @3In Britain, socialist analyses of welfare have conventionally divided into one of two hostile camps -- Fabian and Marxist. The Fabian tradition is empiricist and reformist and works within the capitalist system to eradicate inequalities and improve the provision of welfare. This tradition has, to a large extent, informed the policies of Labour governments. Against this tradition has been set the Marxist school. This has been critical, not only of the performance of the welfare state, but also of the belief that welfare provision under capitalism can achieve significant social change. @3In this major new text Phil Lee and Colin Raban examine these two traditions, looking at the key questions which face both in the context of the modern welfare state. Is reformism and political pragmatism necessarily at odds with a theoretically informed critique of the inequalities of the capitalist system? With the future of the welfare state thrown in doubt by the new right, do Marxists need to modify their analysis of the fate of welfare reforms as little more than instruments of social control? Drawing on the latest work in critical social policy from both traditions, the authors argue that it is an urgent political necessity that each learn from the strengths of the other. Only in this way can welfare be defended and advanced in a way which is both intellectually coherent and politically feasible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is concerned with the role of intellectuals in left-wing parties, focusing on the case of the social democratic intellectuals in the Labour Party. It suggests that at the core of Labour's paralysis lies the fact that Labour still lacks a coherent strategy, and that it has failed to resolve the ambiguities about its identity and ideology which have plagued it over more than two decades, and which were at the root of the SDP split.
