The Interpretation of Cultures

One of the twentieth century's most influential books, this classic work of anthropology offers a groundbreaking exploration of what culture is With The Interpretation of Cultures, the distinguished anthropologist Clifford Geertz developed the concept of thick description, and in so doing, he virtually rewrote the rules of his field. Culture, Geertz argues, does not drive human behavior. Rather, it is a web of symbols that can help us better understand what that behavior means. A thick description explains not only the behavior, but the context in which it occurs, and to describe something thickly, Geertz argues, is the fundamental role of the anthropologist. Named one of the 100 most important books published since World War II by the Times Literary Supplement, The Interpretation of Cultures transformed how we think about others' cultures and our own. This definitive edition, with a foreword by Robert Darnton, remains an essential book for anthropologists, historians, and anyone else seeking to better understand human cultures.

"Meszaros defines capital system as embracing private ownership, and Soviet type postcapitalism; both share the same hierarcical structure, the same destructive tendencies and the same exploitation of the labour force. Capitalism may appear to be triumphant world-wide but Beyond Capital is a devastating exposure of a system which can only renew itself at the cost of increasing its problems and can only delay but not avoid its eventual collapse. The theoretical scope and intellectual rigour of Beyond Capital is matched by its practical importance; Beyond Capital is a major contribution to the development of socialist strategies in these times of despondency and crisis of the historical left." -- Back Cover

How to be a conservative

Roger Scruton's How to be a Conservative presents the case for modern conservatism not in the terms of an elegy but rather as a practical example of how to live as a conservative despite the pressures to live otherwise. As he writes, the book 'is not about what we have lost, but about what we have retained, and how to hold on to it'. In this witty and frank account, Scruton draws on his years of experience as a counter-cultural presence in public life. He examines the truths in Nationalism, Socialism, Capitalism, Liberalism, Multiculturalism, Environmentalism, Internationalism and finally Conservatism. The book concludes on a personal note, with 'a valediction forbidding mourning but admitting loss'.

Anos 40

Pegue o bonde para um saboroso passeio pelos anos 40 no Rio de Janeiro (com escalas fundamentais em São Paulo!). Sente confortavelmente e a janela do bonde será uma tela de cinema, onde você verá: o cenário da guerra e da política, curiosidades sobre Getúlio Vargas, o cinema colorido, o Maracanã, as peças de Nelson Rodrigues, o início da Kibon e da Coca-Cola, a criação do brigadeiro(!), as roletas girando, os balangandãs de Carmen Miranda, as ondas do rádio e as do mar de Copacabana... E muito, muito mais. Ao chegar na estação, o aroma dos quibes, esfirras e bolinhos de bacalhau e o retrato do velho no mesmo lugar mostrarão que o Brasil é uma só aquarela, onde o rei é Momo, o je t'aime vira i love you e nem um blecaute tira o brilho da Princesinha do Mar. Humor, memórias e acontecimentos curiosos temperam esse roteiro desenhado por Ricardo Amaral.
