Culture, Modernity and Revolution - Essays in Honour of Zygmunt Bauman (Hardcover)

In "Culture, Modernity and Revolution" a group of internationally renowned sociologists from East and West, come together to honor Zygmunt Bauman. Their essays not only honor the man, but provide important contributions to the three interlinked themes that could be said to form the guiding threads of Bauman's life and work: power, culture and modernity. "Culture, Modernity and Revolution" is both a remarkable sociological commentary on the problems facing East-Central Europe and an exposition of some of the key, hitherto neglected, features of the modern cultural universe.
The book has a unity of purpose. In no sense is it a development of Bauman's ideas by followers: its editors retain a critical distance and seek to present the man and his ideas to a wide audience. It will be of interest to sociologists, philosophers, political scientists and students of culture.
