Editorial Reviews

Booknews
Bauman (sociology, U. of Leeds and Warsaw) addresses the aimlessness and insecurity of modern life by arguing that individual liberty can only be a product of collective work, and that the ongoing privatization of the means for securing individuality is a route to disaster. He calls for translating private troubles into public issues, and reconstructing an arena in which people can meet to govern themselves. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
