SOCIOLOGY
Social Inequalities in a Global Age
ZYGMUNT BAUMAN ✤ Zygmunt Bauman is one of the most original and influential social thinkers of our time. This new book focuses on social inequality. ✤ Poverty is often seen as a problem of law and order, but this obscures the social roots of inequality, which lie in the combination of a consumerist life philosophy and the shrinking life chances available to the poor. ✤ The poor are the collateral damage of a profit-driven, consumer-oriented society – they are ‘aliens inside’ who are deprived of the rights enjoyed by other members of society. This book represents a significant new advance on Bauman’s previous writings on liquid modernity. ✤ Here he confronts systematically and for the first time the phenomenon of social inequality in our contemporary global age. ✤ Bauman has a large following and his books are widely read outside of higher education. This book will also appeal to students in sociology, politics, cultural studies and related subjects. READERSHIP: First year students and above in sociology, politics and the interested general reader

The Strange Non-Death of Neo-Liberalism
polity
POLITICS
COLIN CROUCH Warwick Business School
✤ This book is a highly original analysis of the financial crisis of 2008 and its aftermath. ✤ Many commentators saw the financial crisis as the end of neoliberalism, but Crouch argues that neoliberalism will shrug off the challenge and persist. ✤ The main reason for this is that neoliberalism is not so much about free markets as it is about the dominance of the large corporation over public life, and this has been intensified, not checked, by the financial crisis and the acceptance that certain financial institutions are ‘too big to fail’. ✤ Crouch argues that this development is largely unavoidable and the main hope for the future is to drag large corporations fully into the realm of political debate rather than leaving them on the sidelines. ✤ This timely and provocative book should reach a wide general readership, as well as undergraduates and postgraduates in politics, sociology, economics and business studies.

HISTORY
Pope Pius XI and the Speech that was Never Made
EMMA FATTORINI The Sapienza University of Rome
✤ The book is a remarkable piece of modern history which tells the story – for the first time – of a speech that was written by Pope Pius XI in 1939 in which he was intending to speak out against Mussolini and the Fascists and condemn anti-Semitism. ✤ But the speech was never delivered, and Pius’s successor, Pope Pius XII, secretly ordered the destruction of the text, thus removing a potential obstacle in the forging of a close relation between the Catholic Church and the Fascists. ✤ It contains important new revelations about the complex and highly charged issue of the relation between the Catholic Church, on the one hand, and Fascism and Nazism, on the other. ✤ This is the kind of book that could get a lot of review coverage in English and which is entirely unique – there are no competitors.
