Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
The Sociology of Political Crisis provides a pioneering and powerful theoretical approach to a large range of critical "events" like political breakdowns, revolutions, upheavals or collapses, which it considers as self-fueling processes emancipating themselves from the multiple causes that gave rise to them. Exploring the properties of "fluid conjunctures", Michel Dobry highlights the plasticity of the structures in which people act and explains the phenomena of structural uncertainty and de-objectification of the social world that affect theirexpectations and calculations. This first English translation of a classic text deftly moves through the currents of both sociology and
philosophy to engage with political crisis in increasingly timely ways.
