  The Social Contract

  Jean-Jacques Rousseau

  • 0

  • 0

  The Social Contract outlines Rousseau's views on political justice, explaining how a just and legitimate state is to be founded, organized and administered. Rousseau sets forth, in his characteristically brazen and iconoclastic manner, the case for direct democracy, while simultaneously casting every other form of government as illegitimate and tantamount to slavery. Often hailed as a revolutionary document which sparked the French Revolution, The Social Contract serves both to inculcate dissatisfaction with actually-existing governments and to allow its readers to envision and desire a radically different form of political and social organization. (Summary by Eric Jonas)

  Violence - A Very Short...

  Philip Dwyer

  • 0

  Violence is part and parcel of human history and of human nature. It is one of our most distinctive traits, the one thing that all cultures and societies, across time, share in common. It has defined not only the ways in which individuals relate to each other, but also how collective entities and states have interacted with each other over the millennia. All societies are violent and all individuals have the capacity for violence. However, not all societies and not all individuals are equally violent, and nor does violence exist with the same intensity across cultures. 
   
   
   
  This Very Short Introduction examines the more visible, physical acts of violence—interpersonal, gendered, collective, religious, sexual, criminal, and political—in the modern world. It explores how violence in the pre-modern world was different from the modern world, and what is significant about those differences. It also discusses what violence is by examining understandings of the ideas, values, and cultural practices embedded in an act of violence, and considering acts of violence as the outcome of a process dependent on the cultural context in which they take place. Along the way Dwyer considers some core questions, asking whether violence is always 'bad', and if there are any limits to human violence? And, are we becoming more or less violent?

  Clubland: How the working men’s...

  The untold story of a British institution 
  ‘Brilliant.’ Alan Johnson 
  ‘Compelling.’ David Kynaston 
  ‘The beer drinkers’ Bill Bryson.’ Times Literary Supplement 
  Ferment Magazine’s Best Beer Book of the Year 
  Pete Brown is a convivial guide on this journey through the intoxicating history of the working men’s clubs. From the movement’s founding by teetotaller social reformer the Reverend Henry Solly to the booze-soaked mid-century heyday, when more than 7 million Brits were members, this warm-hearted and entertaining book reveals how and why the clubs became the cornerstone of Britain’s social life – offering much more than cheap Federation Bitter and chicken in a basket. 
  Often dismissed as relics of a bygone age – bastions of bigotry and racism – Brown reminds us that long before the days of Phoenix Nights, 3,000-seat venues routinely played host to stars like Shirley Bassey, Louis Armstrong, and the Bee Gees, offering entertainment for all the family, and close to home at that. Britain’s best-known comedians made reputations through a thick miasma of smoke, from Sunniside to Skegness. For a young man growing up in the pit town of Barnsley this was a radiant wonderland that transformed those who entered. 
  Brown explores the clubs’ role in defining masculinity, community and class identity for generations of men in Britain’s industrial towns. They were, at their best, a vehicle for social mobility and self-improvement, run as cooperatives for working people by working people: an informal, community-owned pre-cursor to the Welfare State. 
  As the movement approaches its 160th anniversary, this exuberant book brings to life the thrills and the spills of a cultural phenomenon that might still be rescued from irrelevance. 
  Pete Brown's Clubland is a cultural exploration of the British institution, weaving humour and criticism into the narrative. The book delves into the popular topic of beverages, specifically alcoholic ones, and their role in shaping regional and ethnic identities. 
  For fans of Adrian Tierney-Jones (London Local Pubs), Albert Jack (The Old Dog and Duck), David Kynaston (A Northern Wind), Marc Morris (The Norman Conquest), and Zadie Smith (Dead and Alive).
