Beschreibung

In "Business & Economics - Premium Collection," Thorstein Veblen explores the intricate intersections between business practices and economic theory, set against the backdrop of early 20th-century capitalism. Veblen's literary style is characterized by its incisive wit and sociological perspective, offering critical insights into the motivations of entrepreneurs and the societal shifts influenced by economic behavior. This collection delves into his seminal concepts, such as conspicuous consumption and the role of leisure in economic life, positioning his work within the broader context of contemporary economic thought and social critique. Thorstein Veblen, an American economist and sociologist, was profoundly influenced by the cultural complexities and socio-economic disparities of his time. His background in the newly emerging field of sociology and his critical stance against the prevailing economic doctrines fueled his quest to dissect the societal constructs surrounding economics. Veblen's work is often seen as a forerunner to institutional economics, as he questioned the underlying assumptions of classical economics and highlighted the importance of cultural and social factors in shaping economic behavior. I highly recommend "Business & Economics - Premium Collection" to any reader seeking a deeper understanding of the human elements in economic transactions. Veblen's sharp analysis and conceptual clarity provide an indispensable lens for examining the contradictions and dynamics of modern capitalism, making this collection a vital resource for students, scholars, and anyone interested in the interplay between society and economy.

    What Is It Like to Be an Addict?...

    Owen Flanagan, an acclaimed philosopher of mind and ethics, offers a state-of-the-art assessment of addiction science and proposes a new ecumenical model for understanding and explaining substance addiction. 
     
     
     
    Flanagan has firsthand knowledge of what it is like to be an addict. That experience informs this important and novel work. He pairs the sciences that study addiction with a sophisticated view of the consciousness-brain/body relation to make his core argument: that substance addictions comprise a heterogeneous set of "psychobiosocial" behavioral disorders. He explains that substance addictions do not have one set of causes, such as self-medication or social dislocation, and they do not have one neural profile, such as a dysfunction in dopamine system. 
     
     
     
    Flanagan explores the ways addicts sensibly insist on their own responsibility to undo addiction, as well as ways in which shame for addiction can be leveraged into healing. He insists on the collective shame we all bear for our indifference to many of the psychological and social causes of addiction and explores the implications of this new integrated paradigm for practices of harm reduction and treatment. Flanagan's powerful new book upends longstanding conventional thinking and points the way to new ways of understanding and treating addiction.
