{"product_id":"language-ideology-and-social-consciousness-chik-collins-9780367134839","title":"Language, Ideology and Social Consciousness: Developing a Sociohistorical Approach","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginally published in 1999, this book sets out to develop a distinctive, critical approach to the study of social consciousness through empirical studies of sociopolitical conflict in the west of Scotland. It accords an analytical priority to language-use and provides a critical review of a number of contemporary studies and approaches as part of an emerging presentation of an original and distinctive method.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book makes a significant contribution to the recovery for social science of the achievements of a set of Marxist psychologists and philosophers of language - most notably L.S. Vygotsky and V.N. Voloshinov - whose potential relevance for political sociology has barely been recognised. It tests and demonstrates the relevance of the approach it seeks to develop in relation to empirical studies - most notably the Upper Clyde Shipbuilders 'work-in' of 1971-72 and the Scottish Office-led urban policy 'Partnership' in Ferguslie Park, Paisley in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Ultimately, the analytical focus on language becomes a key component of a larger mode of social investigation which begins from an analysis of changing patterns of language-use - one which 'turns' to language without embracing the 'linguistic turn'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chik Collins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367134837\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367134839\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/03\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.80w x 0.70d","brand":"Chik Collins","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48112870981887,"sku":"9780367134839","price":45.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a69d60df-60cf-4ecc-b4c9-e7fff2af2d24.jpg?v=1769611503","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/language-ideology-and-social-consciousness-chik-collins-9780367134839","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
