How can we reimagine society in an era of climate change, pandemic, hunger, poverty, questions of racial, ethnic and gender justice and other pressing global societal challenges? Significant threats and dangers lie ahead of us, but so do opportunities, as new ways of being, thinking and doing emerge. This new, fully Open Access journal aims to facilitate thinking about these positive new trajectories and to become the journal of choice to address the complexities of global social challenges across disciplines and fields.

It is the first such journal to be based in the social sciences while also engaging with research from humanities, arts and STEM. Including marginalised, minority and indigenous world views, the journal will be an important home for research that contributes to the creation of alternative futures that acknowledge past injustices and are socially and environmentally just and sustaining.

“I’m proud to see Bristol University Press launching this important new journal, which promises to address the most urgent complexities of global social challenges by drawing together accessible international scholarship across the disciplines to inform policy and practice.”

What is it for?

Editor: George Miller

What Is War For?

Jack McDonald, King’s College London

“War is a human universal. It is also fractal - it is always the same and always different. And it is still very much alive as Jack McDonald explains in this compelling and thought-provoking book.”

CHRISTOPHER COKER, LSE IDEAS

“An excellent introduction especially with its discussion of the Law of Armed Conflict, so often neglected.”

BEATRICE HEUSER, UNIVERSITY OF GLASGOW

When states wage war on their neighbours while denying they are doing so, what chance do we have to regulate war, and how will we ever achieve a more peaceful world?

This book examines how changes to social rules – such as interpretations of international law – reshape how states explain their military actions, and changes to technology and society transform the activities that constitute contemporary warfare.

Analysing the role that war serves in global politics, it outlines the multiple ways that war affects the contemporary world, from international relations to our day-to-day lives.

Focusing on two competing visions of war –that war can and should be eliminated, and that war is a permanent problem to be managed - it takes the second path as a necessary step towards the first, in the maybe vain hope that it is ever achievable.

What is it for?

What Is Cybersecurity For?

Tim Stevens, King’s College London

“A nuanced, and yet accessible introduction to the fascinating world of cybersecurity.”

ANDRÉ BARRINHA, UNIVERSITY OF BATH

How will protecting our digital infrastructure shape our future? Cybersecurity is one of the key practical and political challenges of our time. This book shows that the political dimension is as important as the technological one.

It accessibly explains the complexities of global information systems, the challenges of providing security to users, societies, states and the international system, and the multitude of competing players and ambitions in this arena. Making the case for understanding it as a crucial political project, it tackles the ultimate question: how can we do it better?

What Is Philanthropy For?

Rhodri Davies, Philanthropy Matters

“An unbiased analysis of the various approaches our sector engages in – equal parts historic treatise and futurism think-piece, which tries to answer the salient question: how can we improve philanthropy?”

EDGAR VILLANUEVA, ACTIVIST, AUTHOR AND FOUNDER/ PRINCIPAL OF DECOLONIZING WEALTH PROJECT AND LIBERATED CAPITAL

Does charitable giving still matter but need to change? Philanthropy, the use of private assets for public good, has been much criticised in recent years. The COVID-19 pandemic has amplified many of these criticisms, leading some to conclude that philanthropy needs to be fundamentally reshaped.

Rhodri Davies explains why it’s important to ask what philanthropy is for because it has for centuries played a major role in shaping our world. Considering the alternatives, including charity, justice, taxation, the state, democracy and the market, he examines the pressing questions that philanthropy must tackle if it is to be equal to the challenges of the 21st century.

What is it for?

Uncomfortably Off

Why the Top 10% of Earners Should Care about Inequality

Marcos González Hernando, Universidad Diego Portales and Gerry Mitchell, social policy researcher

Media attention is often focused on the very richest, the 1%, and their capacity to influence politics and shape society. But they are not the only ones who drive politics, the public conversation and much of the private sector. The focus of this book is on the larger group between the 1% and the 10%. These are the managers and professionals of our media, business, the third sector, political parties and academia and are just as influential.

However, many would not recognise themselves as high earners at all. In fact, earning around £60,000 a year in Britain places you in the top 10% of income earners. Maybe you’re surprised you fall into this category, or are not as far off as you thought.

But despite this group’s relative advantage and comfort, these high earners don’t feel politically empowered. They worry about their income and are anxious about the future. Most of them are more likely to move down the income ladder than up it.

Drawing attention to this powerful section of society, this book explains why, even if you are relatively near the top, it is in your interest that inequality is reduced and you can make that happen.

50 Dark Destinations

Crime and Contemporary Tourism

Edited by Adam Lynes, Craig Kelly and James Treadwell, Birmingham City University

“A fascinating travelogue of trouble. The tourist gaze that animates the book is particularly chilling, revealing the global span of crime – and the insatiable global appetite for crime’s ghostly residues.”

JEFF FERRELL, AUTHOR OF DRIFT: ILLICIT MOBILITY AND UNCERTAIN KNOWLEDGE

“Fun and scholarly, engaging and academic, interesting and intellectual, and should be widely read by anyone interested in violence, trauma, memory, memorialisation, war, museums and history. The subject matter is gruesome and chilling but at the same time accessible and illuminating.”

KEVIN WALBY, UNIVERSITY OF WINNIPEG

From the Alcatraz East Crime Museum and Jack the Ripper guided tours to Phnom Pehn Killing Fields, ‘dark tourism’ is now a multimillion-pound global industry. Even in the most pleasant tourist destinations, underlying harms are constantly perpetuated, affecting both consumers and those who work or live around such tourist hotspots. Highlighting 50 travel destinations across six continents, expert criminologists, psychologists and historians explore the past and contemporary issues which we often disregard during our everyday leisure.

This captivating book is the ‘go-to’ guide for anyone interested in crime and deviance-related tourism. Accessible and digestible, it exposes a worrying trend in contemporary consumer culture, in which many of us partake.

When This Is Over

Reflections on an Unequal Pandemic

Edited by Amy Cortvriend, University of Northampton, Lucy Easthope, University of Durham and University of Bath, Jenny Edkins, Aberystwyth University and Kandida Purnell, American International University in London

“A timely meditation on crisis, response, resilience and death in the 21st century. A must read.”

TONI HAASTRUP, UNIVERSITY OF STIRLING

“Hugely illuminating and harrowing, laying bare how loss, burden, sacrifice and grief were mediated by existing systemic inequalities and discrimination.”

ANDREAS PAPAMICHAIL, QUEEN MARY UNIVERSITY OF LONDON

The COVID-19 pandemic had a profound and persistent impact. A tragic loss of life, change to established patterns of life and social inequalities laid bare. It brought out the good in many and the worst in others and raised questions around what is truly important in our lives.

In this book, academics, activists and artists come together to remember and to reflect on the pandemic. What lessons should we learn? And how can things be different when this is over?

Sensitive to inequalities of gender, race and class, it highlights the experience of marginalised and minority groups and the unjust and uneven spread of violence, deprivation and death. It combines academic analysis with personal testimonies, poetry and images from contributors including Sue Black, Led By Donkeys, Lucy Easthope, Lara-Rose Iredale, Michael Rosen and Gary Younge.

Taken together, this truly inclusive commemorative overview honours the experience of a global disaster lived up close and suggests the steps needed to ensure we do better next time.

Psychology at the Heart of Social Change

Developing a Progressive Vision for Society

Mick Cooper, University of

Roehampton

“Heartening, bold and inspiring.”

SUSIE ORBACH, PSYCHOTHERAPIST AND AUTHOR

To create a world in which people thrive, we need to know what thriving is. This book shows why we need, and can create, a progressive politics that is profoundly informed by insights from the psychotherapeutic and psychological domain, moving us from a politics of blame to a politics of understanding.

In this vision of the world – surrounded by a culture of radical acceptance – all individuals can live fulfilling lives. We need progressive political forces to develop greater understandings of psychological needs and processes; and to work with others in a spirit of collaboration, dialogue and respect.

White Minds Everyday Performance, Violence and Resistance

Guilaine Kinouani, Race Relations

It is widely understood that race is a social fact with profound implications for life chances, group identity, collective representation and for the social order. ‘Whiteness’, the source of race-based inequality and injustice is perpetuated through power, violence and an array of complex processes which help protect the status quo.

Guilaine Kinouani argues that whiteness is a historically and socially located psychological phenomenon. She examines how the psychological and psychic factors involved in the reproduction of whiteness intersect with macro structures, shedding light on everyday race dynamics, race inequality and racial violence of interest to all who seek to understand the impact of ‘whiteness’ so they can be more effective anti-racists.

Men Stepping Forward

The Practices of Inclusive Leaders

Elisabeth Kelan, University of Essex

How do men interested in gender equality become ‘change makers’ and lead their organisation towards inclusion? Directly addressing men, this innovative book reveals how they can be centrally involved in creating gender-inclusive cultures in their organisations. Using cutting-edge research, it suggests practical actions for men as leaders and managers to implement in order to make real changes. Ideal for the time-poor professional, it is essential reading for all men who want to make a difference but don’t know where to start.

Recasting Labour’s

Power

Work and Inequality in the Shadow of the Digital Age

Edward Webster, University of the Witwatersrand

Much of the debate on the future of work has focused on responses to technological trends in the Global North, with little evidence on how these trends are impacting on work and workers in the Global South.

Drawing on a rich selection of ethnographic studies of precarious work in Africa, this innovative book discusses how globalisation and digitalisation are drivers for structural change and examines their implications for labour.

Bringing together global labour studies and inequality studies, it explores the role of digital technology in new business models, and ways in which digitalisation can be harnessed for counter mobilisation by the new worker.

How to Build a Stock Exchange

The Past, Present and Future of Finance

Philip Roscoe, University of St Andrews

Why is finance so important? How do stock markets work and what do they really do? Roscoe mingles historical and technical detail with humorous anecdotes and lively portraits of market participants.

He offers a cautionary tale about the drive of financial markets towards expropriation, capture and exclusion and includes contemporary concerns over inequality, climate emergency and (de)colonialism. He concludes by wondering, in the market’s own angst-filled voice, what the future for finance might be, and how we might get there.

The Ethics of Hacking

Ross W. Bellaby, University of Sheffield

“Illuminating and plausible… rooted in impressive empirical research and drawing on a range of philosophical sources. A must-read.”

CÉCILE FABRE, UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD

Political hackers, like the infamous Anonymous collective, have demonstrated their willingness to use political violence to further their agendas. However, many of their causes are intuitively good things to fight for.

This book argues that when the state fails to protect people, hackers can intervene, and evaluates the hacking based on the political or social circumstances. It offers a unique contribution to conceptualising hacking as a contemporary political activity.

It’s Not Where You Live, It’s How You Live Class and Gender Struggles in a Dublin Estate

John Bissett, community worker, activist and writer

“This brilliant, vividly written and compelling book, drawing on rich vibrant accounts of life on a Dublin housing estate, should be compulsory reading for everyone concerned about growing social class inequalities.”

DIANE REAY, UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE

This ground-breaking and compelling book takes us deep into the world of a public housing estate in Dublin, showing in fine detail the life struggles of those who live there. The book puts the emphasis on class and gender processes, revealing them to be the crucial dynamics in the lives of public housing residents. Combining long-term research into residents’ lived experience with critical realist theory, it provides a completely fresh perspective on public housing in Ireland and arguably, beyond.

The Battle for Britain

Crises, Culture Wars and COVID-19

John Clarke, The Open University

This book addresses the social, political and economic turbulence in which the UK is embroiled, exploring proliferating crises and conflicts, from the multiplying varieties of social dissent through the stagnation of rentier capitalism to the looming climate catastrophe.

Examining arguments about Brexit, class and ‘race’, and the changing character of the state, the book traces the entangled dynamics of time and space that have shaped the current conjuncture. Questioning whether increasingly anti-democratic and authoritarian strategies can provide a resolution to these troubles, it explores how the accumulating crises and conflicts have produced a deepening ‘crisis of authority’ that forms the terrain of the ‘Battle for Britain’.

Defund the Police An International Insurrection

Chris Cunneen, University of Technology Sydney

The police are viewed as guardians of public safety and enforcers of the law. How accurate is this? Given endemic police violence which often aimed at racialised and minoritised groups and the failure of many attempts at reform, attention has turned to community-generated models of support. These include defunding the police and instead funding alternatives to criminalisation and incarceration.

This book is the first comprehensive overview of police divestment, using international examples and case studies to reimagine community safety beyond policing and imprisonment. Showcasing a range of practical examples, this topical book will be relevant for academics, policy makers, activists and all those interested in the Black Lives Matter movement, protest movements and the renewed interest in policing and abolitionism more generally

Vicarious Warfare

American Strategy and the Illusion of War on the Cheap

Thomas Waldman, Loughborough University

“For anyone concerned with the human cost of war (as we all should be), Waldman offers a key to unlocking the ‘alchemy’ of America’s fighting strategy. This richly researched and thoughtful book finally gives us words to describe the troubling path we’re on. Vicarious war indeed.”

SARAH HOLEWINSKI, WASHINGTON DIRECTOR, HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH

America has been at war for most of the 20th and 21st centuries and during that time has progressively moved towards a vicarious form of warfare, where key tasks are delegated to proxies, the military’s exposure to danger is limited, and special forces and covert instruments are on the increase. Important strategic decisions are taken with minimal scrutiny or public engagement.

The Degree Generation

The Making of Unequal Graduate Lives

Nicola Ingram, Manchester Metropolitan University, Jessie Abrahams, University of Surrey, Ann-Marie Bathmaker, University of Birmingham, Laura Bentley and Harriet Bradley, University of the West of England, Tony Hoare, University of Bristol, Vanda Papafilippou and Richard Waller, University of the West of England

“A must read for anyone interested in grasping how the experience of higher education has altered. It offers a unique insight into the process of generational change and the transformation of the role of the academic.”

FRANK FUREDI, UNIVERSITY OF KENT

This book traces the transition to the graduate labour market of a cohort of middle-class and working-class young people who were tracked through seven years of their undergraduate and post-graduation lives. Using personal stories and voices, the book provides fascinating insights into the group’s experience of graduate employment and how their life-course transitions are shaped by their social backgrounds and education.

All We Want is the Earth

Land, Labour and Movements Beyond Environmentalism

Patrick Bresnihan, Maynooth University and Naomi Millner, University of Bristol

This book traces a counter-history of modern environmentalism from the 1960s to the present day. It focuses on claims concerning land, labour and social reproduction arising at important moments in the history of environmentalism made by feminist, anti-colonial, Indigenous, workers’ and agrarian movements. Many of these movements did not consider themselves ‘environmental’, and yet they offer vital ways forward in the face of escalating ecological damage and social injustice.

Health in a Post-COVID World

Lessons from the Crisis of Western Liberalism

Sebastian Taylor, Royal College of Paediatrics

A book for now, a wake-up call to recognise that safeguarding human health by tackling its root determinants, is as crucial as planetary health for a sustainable future”

NEENA MODI, IMPERIAL COLLEGE LONDON

What part do the values of growth and prosperity, freedom and justice, security and democracy play in social policy and human welfare? How can we judge the policies offered to us as the recipe for progress?

At a time of global ‘permacrisis’, Sebastian Taylor applies his extensive frontline experience working with health systems and healthcare in the Global North and South to assess the concrete impact of contemporary liberal values on our welfare, development and environmental survival.

Drawing on research from around the world, he uses health as an objective metric to assess how effective these policies are for individuals and society as a whole.

Se-shauna Wheatle and Elizabeth A. O’Loughlin, Durham University

Philanthropic Response to Disasters Gifts, Givers and Consequences

Edited by Alexandra Williamson, Queensland University of Technology, Diana Leat, ArtSquat and the Blagrave Trust and Susan Phillips, Carleton University

When disaster strikes, our instinctive response is to make things better, not only as individuals but also as groups, organisations, communities and major institutions within society.

This book is a step toward curating our existing knowledge in the emerging field of ‘disaster philanthropy’ and to building a robust base for future research, practice and public policy.

The authors highlight unknowns and ambiguities, extensions and unexplored spaces, and challenges and paradoxes. Above all, they recognise that philanthropic responses to disasters are complex, conditional and subject to change.

Policy-Making as Designing

The Added Value of Design Thinking for Public Administration and Public Policy

Edited by Arwin van Buuren, Erasmus University Rotterdam, Jenny M. Lewis, University of Melbourne and B. Guy Peters, University of Pittsburgh

First published as a special issue of Policy & Politics, this book presents original critical reflections on the value of design approaches and how they relate to the classical idea of public administration as a design science. Contributors consider the potential, challenges and applications of design approaches and distinguish between three methods currently characterising the discipline: design as optimisation, design as exploration and design as co-creation.

Developing the dialogue around public administration as a design science, this collection explores how a more ‘designerly’ way of thinking can improve public administration and public policy.

Social Care in the UK’s Four Nations Between Two Paradigms

Edited by Catherine Needham and Patrick Hall, University of Birmingham

The devolution of social care policy has led to key differences emerging between the UK’s four care systems. This book presents research on the perspectives of social care policy makers on the systems in which they operate.

It raises questions about the role of ‘standardisation’ and ‘differentiation’ in social care, concluding that when given equal capacity to reform their respective systems, the regimes in each nation may take radically different shapes.

For anyone interested in how we safeguard young people beyond their front doors, this book shows how much we have achieved and raises big questions about what more we need to do to ensure young people are safe – whatever the context.

Neglected Essays, Recurring Themes

Nicholas Greenwood Onuf, Florida International University

“Each story in this volume is a little gem.”

ANNA LEANDER, GENEVA GRADUATE INSTITUTE

Building on the work of giants, from Aristotle and Cicero, Hume and Kant, to Derrida and Foucault, and drawing on diverse contemporary theorists, including Seyla Benhabib, James Der Derian, Johan Galtung, Morton Kaplan, Joseph Nye, James Rosenau, Elaine Scarry and Kenneth Waltz, the book ranges over the margins of the field and settles on issues that have never been put to rest.

The Politics of Negative Emotions

Edited by Dan Degerman, University of Bristol

Negative emotions, including anger, fear and shame, have been at the heart of recent political events, such as the protests against COVID-19 restrictions. These negative emotions can be politically destructive, leading people to act rashly without due concern for democratic principles. However, they can also accurately signal wrongdoing and motivate acts to redress the situation, as displayed in the Black Lives Matter and climate change movements.

This volume brings together perspectives from political science and philosophy to shed new light on the political faces of negative emotions. Engaging with real-world political events from Europe, the US and Africa, contributors critically evaluate much-discussed emotions, such as anger and fear, but also less prominent ones, such as frustration and discomfort.

Menopause and the Workplace

Theorising Transitions, Responsibilities and Interventions

Vanessa Beck, University of Bristol and Jo Brewis, The Open University

Providing an overview of existing knowledge in the field of menopause in the workplace, this collection retheorises the management of human resources as it relates to the connections between gender, age and the body in the workplace environment with an intersectional analysis.

Offering theoretical frameworks from experts as well as possible practical approaches that can be implemented in workplaces to support women transitioning through menopause, this is a goto reference for academics and policy makers working in the field.

Edited by Elizabeth Rasekoala, African Gong

Moving beyond tokenistic and extractive approaches, this book creates a space for academics and practitioners to challenge issues around race and sociocultural inclusion, providing mutual learning, paradigm-shifting perspectives and innovative ways forward for the science communication advancement agenda.

The War on Dirty Money

Nicholas Gilmour, consultant and Tristram Hicks, international criminal justice advisor

“Bang on the (dirty) money. This book is for anyone that wants to understand the problem, why we’re failing and what can be done about it.”

DAVID

Billions of dollars are wasted each year trying to prevent ‘dirty money’ entering a financial system that is already awash with it. The authors challenge the global approach, arguing that complacency, self-interest and misunderstanding have now created long-standing absurdities.

International and government policy makers inadvertently facilitate tax evasion, corruption, environmental and organised crime by separating crime from its root cause. The handful of crime-fighters that do exist are starved of resources while an army of compliance box-tickers are prevented from truly helping. The authors provide a toolbox of evidence-based solutions to help the front line tackle financial crime.

Border Harms and Everyday Violence

A Prison Island in Europe

Evgenia Iliadou, immigration project worker

The Greek island of Lesvos is frequently the subject of news reports on the refugee ‘crisis’, but they only occasionally focus on the dire living conditions of asylum seekers already present on the island.

Through direct experience as an activist in Lesvos refugee camps and detention centres, Iliadou gives voice to those with lived experiences of state violence.

Transforming Agriculture and Foodways

The Digital-Molecular Convergence

David Goodman, University of California, Santa Cruz

A wave of innovation driven by the convergence of digital and molecular technologies is transforming food production and ways of eating in the US, Western Europe and Australasia. This book explores a range of contemporary agri-food issues, such as the digitalisation of farm production, aka Precision Agriculture, farmer independence, gene editing, alternative proteins and the rise of appbased home food deliveries.

This is the first book to provide a systemic analysis of technological innovation and its socioeconomic consequences in modern food systems, including the ‘hollowing out’ of rural communities and pronounced industrial concentration. The food system is under growing public pressure to respond to global climate change but this book finds little evidence of transition to sustainable low-carbon trajectories.
