Their essays not only honour the man, but provide important contributions to the three interlinked themes that could be said to form the guiding threads of Bauman's life work: power, culture and modernity. Culture, Modernity and Revolution is both a remarkable sociological commentary on the problems facing East-Central Europe and an exposition of some of the key, hitherto neglected, features of the modern cultural universe.SociologyPhilosophyCultureRevolutionsSociologyPhilosophy.Culture.Revolutions.301/.01Bauman Zygmunt1925-124491Kilminster Richard923754Varcoe Ian52606MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910170974103321Culture, modernity, and revolution2155095UNINA
