    Political sociology is fundamentally interdisciplinary, combining theories and empirical insights from disciplines such as sociology, political science, political economy and media studies. This book provides a state-of-the-art introduction to the broad field of political sociology, from the historical formation of states and the institutions of welfare states to sociological theories of voting behaviour and other everyday political activities. It avoids advocating any particular discipline or theoretical perspective, instead inviting students to engage and take part in debates that are central to political sociology and important to society at large.Introduction to Political Sociology is edited by Benedikte Brincker, associate professor at Copenhagen Business School, with contributions from key scholars in political sociology.

  • af Brooke Harrington

    This engrossing deep dive exposes how the shadowy global system of offshore finance fuels economic crises and austerity while also undermining democracy and the rule of law. Sociologist Brooke Harrington trained as an offshore wealth manager then spent years immersed in tax havens around the world, observing and interviewing the experts who keep the secrets and protect the fortunes of the global ultra-rich. She shows what offshore finance costs all of us and how it has colonised the world-not on behalf of any one country, but to benefit a largely invisible empire of a few thousand billionaires who help themselves to the best society has to offer while sticking us with the bill. As politicians struggle to address the deepening economic and political inequality destabilising the world, Harrington's exposé of the offshore system is a vital resource for understanding the most pressing crises of our time.

  • - Investment Clubs and the New Investor Populism
    af Brooke Harrington
    395,95 kr.

    During the 1990s, the United States underwent a dramatic transformation: investing in stocks, once the province of a privileged elite, became a mass activity involving more than half of Americans. Pop Finance follows the trajectory of this new market populism via the rise of investment clubs, through which millions of people across the socioeconomic spectrum became investors for the first time. As sociologist Brooke Harrington shows, these new investors pour billions of dollars annually into the U.S. stock market and hold significant positions in some of the nation's largest firms. Drawing upon Harrington's long-term observation of investment clubs, along with in-depth interviews and extensive survey data, Pop Finance is the first book to examine the origins and impact of this mass engagement in investing. One of Harrington's most intriguing findings is that gender-based differences in investing can create a "e;diversity premium"e;--groups of men and women together are more profitable than single-sex groups. In examining the sources of this effect, she delves into the interpersonal dynamics that distinguish effective decision-making groups from their dysfunctional counterparts. In addition, Harrington shows that most Americans approach investing not only to make a profit but also to make a statement. In effect, portfolios have become like consumer products, serving both utilitarian and social ends. This ties into the growth of socially responsible investing and shareholder activism--matters relevant not only to social scientists but also to corporate leaders, policymakers, and the millions of Americans planning for retirement.Some images inside the book are unavailable due to digital copyright restrictions.
