Routledge Revivals

Conceptions of publicness and privateness structure not only our thinking about society and ourselves, but also, by structuring our institutions and practices, dictate how we act within society. Originally published in 1983, the complexity inherent in the distinction between public and private is explored fully in this book.

Public and Private in Social Life

'Fascinating... a much needed conversation between generations' THE TIMESHow can we communicate when things are so painful? How can we connect when generational differences are extreme? How do parents and teenagers - and all of us - have real conversations? When Rowan was sixteen, she only tolerated communication from her mother in the form of Snapchat. Desperate to be closer to her daughter, Christie sent daily selfies of her face superimposed onto a chicken nugget. It took serious illness for them to finally talk - and truly listen. Rowan's mental health struggles revealed the chasm between their generations. They started being more honest with each other than they had ever been before: discussing identity, race, gender and neurodivergence; opening up about disordered eating and self-harm; navigating the perils of social media. In an age of polarisation, this is how a mother and daughter find humour in the things that divide them and become more hopeful about the future of our world. A book for all parents and teenagers going through a tough time, for friends, grandparents, teachers and healthcare professionals who want to help, its bare honesty will have you laughing - and possibly crying - out loud as it shows that you are not alone. 'I loved this book and I know it will help many families during difficult times' JULIA SAMUEL'Incredibly brave, generous and important' CLOVER STROUD'It made me cry, laugh and hug my daughter extra tightly' BRYONY GORDON

The bestselling author of "The Establishment" prises out the evidence for an alternative to irresponsible and destructive consumer capitalism, travelling across the parts of the world most beset by right-wing populism and the areas in which anti-austerity ideas are under brave and exciting experimentation.

Brought to you by Penguin. We know our world's unequal. But, says Owen Jones, it doesn't have to stay that way. No status quo simply dissolves of its own accord: it must be replaced with something else. Without a real alternative that attracts the belief of millions of people, things will stay the same, if only because it's impossible for many to imagine things looking any different. The Alternative tells us that change is possible, desirable and even inevitable - if we want it. Owen goes in search of the people who are already making change happen: from the US and the UK to Latin America, from the struggles of Hungarian and Turkish dissidents working against authoritarian governments to the millions-strong anti-austerity movement in Spain. On his travels, he gathers evidence on how an economy can be built for the many rather than being a racket for the few; how we can reboot welfare states, education systems and health services for the twenty-first century; and, last but not least, how we can build enough decent homes for people to live in. All this, he shows, must happen through renewed democracy: it is only democracy that can take on inequality and injustice. There is an alternative. We just have to learn how to make it happen. This book shows us how. ©2024 Owen Jones (P)2024 Penguin Audio

Bloomsbury Neo-Latin Series: Early Modern Texts and Anthologies

This volume offers the first annotated English translation of the first two books of On Celibacy (1473) by the eminent Venetian humanist Ermolao Barbaro (1454-93); Books 3 and 4 of On Celibacy are presented, along with Barbaro's On the Duty of the Ambassador, in the companion piece to this first volume. Setting out the historical context that crucially conditions Barbaro's advocacy of the celibate life in Books 1 and 2, the introduction examines how On Celibacy seeks to justify a contemplative existence that rejects the career path expected of a figure of Barbaro's standing within the Venetian patrician class.
 
 Beyond setting out the essential facts of Ermolao Barbaro's life-story, Gareth Williams discusses how On Celibacy is set in counterpoise to the treatise On Marriage (1415) that was composed by Ermolao's eminent grandfather, Francesco Barbaro. If the latter's treatise was vitally concerned with the institution of marriage as a key factor in the safeguarding of family succession and the stability of patriciate participation in government at Venice, On Celibacy presents an alternative ideal whereby the celibate can proudly renounce civic life in the name of self-discovery and the pursuit of wisdom, his abilities simply unsuited to the rigors of civic life. On Celibacy is thus implicated in a much wider 15th-century debate about the claims of the contemplative as opposed to the active life - a debate that extends all the way back to Greco-Roman antiquity.

The incredible story of the first Labour administration and the 'wild men' who shook up the British establishment, with a fully updated new Preface.

A century ago a Labour government took power for the first time, meet the Wild Men who led the way...

'Thoroughly researched. brings superbly to life figures whom history should not have forgotten.' - Simon Heffer, Daily Telegraph


'A highly readable, enjoyable and informative book.' - John McTernan, Financial Times


'A meticulously researched collective biography.' - Andrew Marr, New Statesman


'Superb' -- New Statesman 'Fascinating' -- The Sunday Times


In 1923, five short years since the end of the First World War, and after the passing of the Act which gave all men the vote, an inconclusive election result and the prospect of a constitutional crisis opened the door for a radically different sort of government: men from working-class backgrounds who had never before occupied the corridors of power at Westminster. Who were these 'wild men'? Ramsay MacDonald, their leader and Labour's first Prime Minster, was the illegitimate son of a Scottish farm labourer; Arthur Henderson was a Scottish iron moulder; J. H. Thomas, a Welsh railwayman; John Wheatley, an Irish-born miner and publican; and William Adamson, a Fife coal miner. Never before had men from such backgrounds occupied the corridors of power in Westminster.

The Wild Men tells the story of that first Labour administration - its unexpected birth, fraught existence, and controversial downfall - through the eyes of those who found themselves in the House of Commons, running the country for the people. Blending biography and history into a compelling narrative, David Torrance reassesses the UK's first Labour government a century after it shook up a British establishment still reeling from the War - and how the establishment eventually fought back.

This is an extraordinary period in British political history which echoes down the years to our current politics and laid the foundations for the Britain of today.

"Why SNAP Works is a lively, up-to-the-minute account of the history of the program formerly known as food stamps, contested from its onset. Christopher Bosso's compelling explanation of the reasons SNAP survived, and deserves to survive, in the face of so much opposition, makes his book a must-read."--Marion Nestle, author of Slow Cooked: An Unexpected Life in Food Politics "A one-stop shop for SNAP history."--Parke Wilde, Friedman School, Tufts University "What makes this work original and important is that it traces this history in a single volume and brings the story up to present. Bosso has excellent underlying scholarship and also relies on an impressive foundation of primary documents."--Adam Sheingate, author of Building a Business of Politics: The Rise of Political Consulting and the Transformation of American Democracy "This is an original book, and its assertions about SNAP politics and substance are fresh and new."--Rebecca Harris, author of Party Food: A Partisan History of Food &amp; Farming Policy in America
