Описание: The background to this study is the growth of academic interest in the state after the 1950s. Theorising of the state has not remained static. There has, in recent decades, been a proliferation of approaches that have redefined our understanding of political power and the state. However, there are no generic studies, of the type that are commonplace for social theory, that cover recent analytical developments in theories of the state. This text fills this gap by comparing different contemporary approaches to the state. These contemporary state theories have philosophical and theoretical antecedents that can be traced to post-classical social and political thought: their influences can be traced to feminism, poststructuralism, cultural theory, network analysis rather than to Marx, Weber or Durkheim, although this is far from being an exclusive and water-tight distinction. These new theoretical currents have debunked and challenged many cosy academic assumptions about the state, had become rooted in social and political thought. They have done this through the use of innovative theoretical concepts and an original analytical vernacular. These challenges have, in some quarters, been portrayed as attempts to abandon or jettison the state from academic analysis. This is far from the truth. New approaches have endeavoured to demystify or even deconstruct the state but not disavow the contemporary state from social theory.

Описание: Just what is a generation? And why, if at all, does it matter? This book asks what generation means to ordinary people, arguing that generation is real and it matters, but not in the ways that we think. Generations are not groups of people who can be categorized and attributed with static, immutable and universal characteristics, nor are they reducible to cohorts, as is the tendency in much social research. Rather, the book reveals generation to be a social phenomenon and a mechanism of social change - as a constellation of ideas and discourses that explains what happens when ideas and ideals collide, and why some discourses flourish and take hold at particular times.
