Seller's Description:
Good. Size: 9x6x0; [From the library of noted scholar William E. Connolly. ] Bound in red cloth. Hardcover. No dust jacket. Shelf wear. Binding slightly cocked. Scattered underlining and markings by Connolly. xxii, 164 pages; 23 cm. "This book examines the role of everyday language, governmental rhetoric, and professional language in creating dubious beliefs about the causes, nature, consequences, and remedies for poverty and related social problems. Incorporating recent social science concerns with phenomenology and structuralism, the book analyzes the nature and dynamics of complex cognitive structures engendered in public officials, professionals, administrators, and the general public through recurring categorizations, metaphors, metonyms, and syntactic structures." "William E. Connolly is Krieger-Eisenhower Professor in the political science department at Hopkins where he teaches political theory. His early book, The Terms of Political Discourse, was awarded the Benjamin Lippincott Award in 1999 as 'a work of exceptional quality that is still considered significant at least 15 years after publication. ' In a poll of American political theorists published in PS in 2010, he was ranked the fourth most influential political theorist in America over the last twenty years, after Rawls, Habermas, and Foucault. His work focuses on the issues of democratic pluralism, capitalism, inequality, fascism, and bumpy intersections between capitalism and planetary amplifiers in climate change."-Johns Hopkins University.
