Paradoxes of Individualization addresses one of the most hotly debated issues in contemporary sociology: whether a process of individualization is liberating selves from society so as to make them the authors of their personal biographies. The book adopts a cultural-sociological approach that firmly rejects such a notion of individualization as naìˆve. The process is instead conceptualized as an increasing social significance of moral notions of individual liberty, personal authenticity and cultural tolerance, which informs two paradoxes. Firstly, chapters about consumer behavior, computer gaming, new age spirituality and right-wing extremism demonstrate that this individualism entails a new, yet often unacknowledged, form of social control. The second paradox, addressed in chapters about religious, cultural and political conflict, is concerned with the fact that it is precisely individualism's increased social significance that has made it morally and politically contested. Paradoxes of Individualization, will therefore be of interest to scholars and students of cultural sociology, cultural anthropology, political science, and cultural, religious and media studies, and particularly to those with interests in social theory, culture, politics and religion.IndividualismIndividualitySocial conflictSocial controlSocial sciencePsychology302.5/4Houtman Dick476495Aupers Stefde Koster WillemBOOK9910155597703321Paradoxes of Individualization3598078UNINA03082nam 22006251 450 991078931500332120230126211641.00-19-934414-01-299-93994-5(CKB)3460000000127987(EBL)3055691(OCoLC)922972611(SSID)ssj0000820867(PQKBManifestationID)11452848(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000820867(PQKBWorkID)10870573(PQKB)10512944(StDuBDS)EDZ0000115796(MiAaPQ)EBC3055691(Au-PeEL)EBL3055691(CaPaEBR)ebr10775399(CaONFJC)MIL525245(EXLCZ)99346000000012798720120608d2013 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAsset assessments and community social work practice /Melvin Delgado and Denise Humm-DelgadoOxford ;New York :Oxford University Press,2013.1 online resource (310 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-19-973584-0 0-19-931586-8 Includes bibliographical references (pages [239]-282) and index.Cover; Contents; Preface; Acknowledgments; SECTION 1 Definitions, Values, and Principles; 1.
