The Call of the Wild (1903) and White Fang (1906) are world famous animal stories. Set in Alaska during the Klondike Gold Rush of the late 1890s, The Call of the Wild is about Buck, the magnificent cross-bred offspring of a St Bernard and a Scottish Collie. Stolen from his pampered life on a Californian estate and shipped to the Klondike to work as a sledge dog, he triumphs over his circumstances and becomes the leader of a wolf pack.

Meta-anthropology of the history of the 21st century.

Most importantly, the new humanism must actually prevent and stop crimes against ... |

Книгата представя опит за аналитично разглобяване на известни политически метафори. В първата част са разгледани фигури с глобално значение: война срещу терора, организирана престъпност, антикорупция, популизъм. Във втората е развит коментар на политически фигури от българския политически живот: идеологеми на 90 -те , идеите за земеделска партия, твърд електорат и етнически модел. Анализирани в семантична перспектива, тези фигури на политическата реч се разкриват като безсмислени. Смисловата им празнота не произтича от случайни обстоятелства, а е свързана с фундаментални основания. Въпреки това те се радват на висока ... |

От 70-те години на XX век в западния свят се формира съвременната социология на риска. Възникват различни традиции, дискусиите са интензивни и продължават до днес. Интересният въпрос засяга преживяването за риск и феномена на риска отвъд конкретни рискове, в неговия чист вид. Какво говори за обществата в късната модерност вглеждането в рискове, което стига и до болезнени форми? Коректно ли е отделянето на рисковата проблематика в самостоятелна област на хуманитарното знание? Книгата представя концептуалната парадигма на риска. Развита е като лексикон с основни понятия като риск, вероятност, опасност, заплаха и т.н., без ... |
