    A Sociology of Negative Relations

    de Eva Illouz ...
    Western culture has endlessly represented the ways in which love miraculously erupts in people’s lives, the mythical moment in which one knows someone is destined for us, the feverish waiting for a phone call or an email, the thrill that runs down our spine at the mere thought of him or her. Yet, a culture that has so much to say about love is virtually silent on the no less mysterious moments ... Leer más

  • Return to Meaning

    A Social Science with Something to Say

    de Mats Alvesson, Yiannis Gabriel, Roland Paulsen ...
    This book argues that we are currently witnessing not merely a decline in the quality of social science research, but the proliferation of meaningless research, of no value to society, and modest value to its authors - apart from securing employment and promotion.

    Understanding Language and Gender

    de Allyson Jule ...
    From slut-shaming to the allegedly shrill voices of female politicians, from vocal fry to online misogyny, the language women use (and the language used about them) is as controversial as it has ever been.
