Education And Society

Translator A AI

Summary

Education and Society explores the complex interplay between education, social structures, and economic outcomes, questioning whether education truly levels the playing field. It examines how education systems impact social mobility and contribute to economic development, while also addressing persistent educational inequality. For instance, access to quality education significantly influences an individual's ability to climb the socioeconomic ladder, yet disparities in funding and resources often perpetuate existing inequalities.

 
The book uniquely emphasizes the connections between education and disciplines like sociology, economics, and political science, providing a holistic view of how social norms, economic policies, and governmental actions shape educational opportunities. The book takes a structured approach, beginning with fundamental concepts and progressing through case studies from various nations. It analyzes how education influences social mobility through mechanisms like access to higher education and labor market returns, while also exploring education's role in fostering innovation and productivity for economic development.

 
By drawing on empirical evidence and qualitative research, Education and Society offers an evidence-based analysis of challenges and opportunities, ultimately proposing policy recommendations for more equitable and effective education systems.

'Bravura on the ground reporting'David Goldblatt, award-winning author of The Ball is Round'This is an important book'Simon Kuper, bestselling author of Soccernomics, Chums and Barça'Compelling'The Times'A subtle examination of the complex interplay between global ambition, economic power, and ethical considerations'MoneyWeek_________In 2034, Saudi Arabia will host the men's FIFA World Cup and mark the culmination of Mohammed bin Salman's ambitious plan to modernise Saudi Arabia, a kingdom of unfathomable wealth at the heart of the Islamic world, which is only now emerging from nearly a century of self-isolation. How did we get here? Why would a country spend tens of billions of dollars, perhaps even hundreds of billions in the long run, to buy and control sport?Engulfed is a story about ambition, family rivalries, extreme wealth, power, murder and disinformation. It is also the story of dictatorship, political corruption and, at its root, how sport - football, yes, but also golf, boxing and even e-sports - became a vital geopolitical tool for Saudi Arabia.Drawing on Montague's exclusive first-hand interviews from his extensive travels across Saudi Arabia, the US, the north-east of England, Spain, Turkey and beyond, Engulfed uncovers how the House of Saud zeroed in on the political power of sport, using it both as a powerful political tool of influence and as a way to rectify the PR damage caused by one of the most infamous assassinations in history: the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

A Little Cocaine to Loosen My...

Sigmund Freud

In the 1880s, Freud discovered cocaine and became enthusiastic about what was not yet considered a party drug. Favoring the use of cocaine in the treatment of neurasthenia, as an energizer, or as an anesthetic, Freud made a creative and fashionable use of it, heralding practices that our society knows well. Several surprising texts are gathered here on cocaine. Freud recounts the use of coca in history, particularly in South America, from where it was imported. In Cocaine Addiction and Cocaine Phobia, the inventor of psychoanalysis defended coca against its accusers as a dangerous product. Finally, in the letters to Martha Bernays, his future wife, we discover an intimate and loving Freud, telling how he escaped boring dinners thanks to his dear magic substance.
