Contributors provide an inside look at gentrification in different cities, from major...

A Theory of Shopping

Daniel Miller

A Theory of Shopping

A Theory of Shopping offers a highly original perspective on one of our most basic everyday activities – shopping. We commonly assume that shopping is primarily concerned with individuals and materialism. But Miller rejects this assumption and follows the surprising route of analysing shopping by means of an analogy with anthropological studies of sacrificial ritual. He argues that the act of purchasing goods is almost always linked to other social relations, and most especially those based on...

A Time Traveller's Guide to Our Next Ten Years

Picture South Africa ten years from now: Are the angry poor rising up and seizing land and businesses? Or has economic reform created jobs and growth? Is an increasingly desperate government clamping down on freedoms? Or do the middle classes still braai in suburban bliss?

Mary Wollstonecraft

A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (with an introduction by Millicent Garrett Fawcett)

Arguably the earliest written work of feminist philosophy, Wollstonecraft produced this manifesto of woman’s rights in the time of the American and French Revolutions. This era induced many to reconsider not only the rights of men, but also of women, and none argued for female emancipation more eloquently or effectively than Wollstonecraft. Her strong use of analogy and philosophical language compared women of her day to both slaves and soldiers, forced to be docile and decorative....

Flaherty's new book offers remarkable insights on this most universal human experience. Flaherty surveys hundreds of individuals...
