The term, commonly identified with \"uplift\" and \"order,\" has come to take on another meaning: the \"civilized\" versus the \"primitive.\" This book is about the idea of civilization and how, at different times, the concept has been used by the powerful in order to defend their status. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of early societies, anthropologist Thomas C. Patterson shows how class, sexism, and racism have been integral to the appearance of \"civilized\" societies in Western Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 156\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.51 x 8.22 x 5.55 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 01, 1997\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47748228940025,"sku":"9780853459613","price":28.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/ict-BM8el99780853459613.webp?v=1775051586","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/inventing-western-civilization-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
