{"product_id":"zygmunt-bauman-and-the-west-jack-palmer-9780228017691","title":"Zygmunt Bauman and the West: A Sociology of Intellectual Exile","description":"Zygmunt Bauman was both an outsider of Western modernity and one of its foremost interpreters. He was an exemplary figure in twentieth-century intellectual work on exile who experienced both Nazi and Soviet forms of totalitarianism.The first work to draw extensively on Bauman's personal archive, Zygmunt Bauman and the West argues that the distinctive social thought that sprang from Bauman's lived experiences of exile amounts to a sustained, sophisticated, and hitherto unappreciated problematization of Eurocentrism and the West. Through an overview of the intellectual's thought and his contribution to sociology, Jack Palmer explores Bauman's experience and interpretation of the West and seeks to understand his work in a broader context, outside of the Eurocentric environment from which it was born. Intervening in a resurgent sociology of intellectuals, Zygmunt Bauman and the West re-evaluates the place of the West in social and political thought.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jack Palmer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0228017696\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780228017691\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McGill-Queen's University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/15\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.98h x 5.98w x 0.87d","brand":"Jack Palmer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44122782892287,"sku":"9780228017691","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_99b6bc15-4416-49e7-b053-2ee3752eea03.jpg?v=1687427123","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/zygmunt-bauman-and-the-west-jack-palmer-9780228017691","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
