Author: Richard Sennett File Type: epub A Business Week Best Book of the Year.... A devastating and wholly necessary book.Studs Terkel, author of WorkingIn The Corrosion of Character, Richard Sennett, among the countrys most distinguished thinkers . . . has concentrated into 176 pages a profoundly affecting argument (Business Week) that draws on interviews with dismissed IBM executives, bakers, a bartender turned advertising executive, and many others to call into question the terms of our new economy. In his 1972 classic, The Hidden Injuries of Class (written with Jonathan Cobb), Sennett interviewed a man he called Enrico, a hardworking janitor whose life was structured by a union pay schedule and given meaning by his sacrifices for the future. In this new book-a #1 bestseller in Germany-Sennett explores the contemporary scene characterized by Enricos son, Rico, whose life is more materially successful, yet whose work lacks long-term commitments or loyalties. Distinguished by Sennetts combination of broad historical and literary learning and a reporters willingness to walk into a store or factory [and] strike up a conversation (New York Times Book Review), this book challenges the reader to decide whether the flexibility of modern capitalism . . . is merely a fresh form of oppression (Publishers Weekly, starred review). Praise for The Corrosion of Character A benchmark for our time.Daniel Bell [A]n incredibly insightful book.William Julius Wilson [A] remarkable synthesis of acute empirical observation and serious moral reflection.Richard Rorty [Sennett] offers abundant fresh insights . . . illuminated by his concern with peoples struggle to give meaning to their lives.[Memphis] Commercial Appeal**

Author: Ellen Griffith Spears File Type: pdf Rethinking the American Environmental Movement post-1945 turns a fresh interpretive lens on the past, drawing on a wide range of new histories of environmental activism to analyze the actions of those who created the movement and those who tried to thwart them. Concentrating on the decades since World War II, environmental historian Ellen Griffith Spears explores environmentalism as a field of movements rooted in broader social justice activism. Noting major legislative accomplishments, strengths, and contributions, as well as the divisions within the ranks, the book reveals how new scientific developments, the nuclear threat, and pollution, as well as changes in urban living spurred activism among diverse populations. The book outlines the key precursors, events, participants, and strategies of the environmental movement, and contextualizes the story in the dramatic trajectory of U.S. history after World War II. The result is a synthesis of American environmental politics that one reader called both ambitious in its scope and concise in its presentation. This book provides a succinct overview of the American environmental movement and is the perfect introduction for students or scholars seeking to understand one of the largest social movements of thetwentieth century up through the robust climate movement of today.
