Bringing Down the Banking System

Interest Rate Derivatives Explained

Lessons from Iceland

Volume 1: Products and Markets Gudrun Johnsen, University of Oslo, Norway

The book should be required reading for anyone involved in banking or regulation.” - Gylfi Magnússon, Associate Professor of Finance, University of Iceland; Minister of Economic Affairs, Iceland, 2009-2010 “This book provides a detailed, clear and refreshingly candid account of the Icelandic financial crisis. It will be a useful reference with valuable lessons for policy makers...and a sober reminder to strengthen financial supervision during times of strong credit growth.” - Ceyla Pazarbasioglu, Deputy Director, Monetary and Capital Markets Department, International Monetary Fund; former Vice President, Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency, Turkey How could tiny Iceland build a banking system in less than a decade that proportionally exceeded Switzerland’s?

The Risk Factor Why Every Organization Needs Big Risks, Bold Characters, and the Occasional Spectacular Failure

The Management Shift How to Harness the Power of People and Transform Your Organization For Sustainable Success Vlatka Hlupic, University of Westminster, London Business School, Drucker Society, UK

"Use the powerful 6-Box Model and its lessons from Vlatka Hlupic's new book to put your team on the fast track to success. Outstanding, unique work from one of today's most important management

consultants! Excellent!" - Marshall Goldsmith, a Thinkers 50 Top Ten Global Business Thinker, top ranked executive coach and author of the New York Times and global bestseller What Got You Here Won’t Get You There. A new tried and tested model for leadership to help managers improve engagement, remove barriers to innovation and uncover the hidden strengths of every company’s greatest asset: their workforce.

Deborah Perry Piscione, USA author of Secrets of Silicon Valley, and CEO of Alley to the Valley and BettyConfidential.

Our most revered business icons of the last few decades are the bold risktakers, such as Richard Branson, Elon Musk, and Steve Jobs. Yet in today’s stock market-driven economy, companies are playing it safe, with too many leaders focused on short-term gains, rather than value creation. The result is a static business culture that generates forgettable results - even as the world demands big solutions. So how do we get back in the risktaking game? In The Risk Factor, Deborah Perry Piscione takes the most comprehensive look at this crucial, undervalued leadership behavior, and outlines how companies must support risk-taking across the enterprise. Exploring the heroes of risk, including entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, and technologists, and the role risk-taking and failure tolerance play in their success, she makes a compelling case not only for big, flashy mergers or acquisitions, but also for unorthodox choices in everything from leadership to corporate social responsibility.

Fashion Merchandising

Twitter is Not a Strategy

Brand Premium

Theory and Practice

Rediscovering the Art of Brand Marketing

How Smart Brands Make More Money

James Clark, London College of Fashion, UK

Tom Doctoroff is Asia CEO for J. Walter Thompson

This book explores the role of fashion merchandising: how it can add value to a fashion business; the remit and scope of the role and the function; and the planning and trading processes. It does so within the broader context of the fashion industry, and also considers the challenges facing the wider industry: CSR, sustainability and globalisation.

In a cultural climate saturated by technology, marketing professionals have focused their energies on creating newer and more digital methods of advertising their brands, with the fear that if they don’t embrace “Big Data,” they will fade into obscurity. But Tom Doctoroff, Asia CEO for J. Walter Thompson, argues that this frenzy over digital media has created a schism in the marketing world that is hindering brands from attaining their true business potential. The tension between traditional branding and the seemingly unlimited possibilities presented by the advent of “digital” branding leads companies to abandon the tried and true aspects of marketing for the flash of the new. In this informative new book, Doctoroff explains why a strategy that truly integrates the two ideas is the best way for a brand to move into the future. Using some of the biggest brand names in the world as examples, such as Coca-Cola, Nike, and Apple, he breaks down the framework of marketing to explain how digital marketing can’t stand without the traditional foundation.

Nigel Hollis is executive vice president and chief global analyst at Millward Brown.

“My pen literally ran out of ink underlining all of the important and relevant bits in this book. If this book doesn’t make you stop and take stock of how you manage your brand, you might want to consider a new career!” - Mark Truss, Global Director of Brand Intelligence, JWT \Why do consumers pay a premium price for a brand? Is it better quality, the look and feel, or is it the brand's social standing? Nigel Hollis believes the answer to all those questions is "yes." Yet the vast majority of brands today trade on past equity and transient buzz. This lack of meaning is creating a market full of commodities rather than products that instill loyalty. But loyalty (i.e., repeat business) is the key to long term success, and that requires focusing on meaningful differentiation: functional, emotional, or societal. Here, brand expert Nigel Hollis focuses on the four components of a meaningfully different brand: purpose, delivery, resonance, and difference. The book includes cases of global brands such as Dyson, Johnnie Walker, Geico, Volkswagen, and more. Contents: Foreword / Acknowledgements / Preface / PART I: WHAT’S IT ALL ABOUT? / 1.

Making Movies into Art Picture Craft from the Magic Lantern to Early Hollywood Kaveh Askari, University of Western Washington, USA

‘A major contribution to film history and theory, and film’s relation to other media.’ - Tom Gunning, University of Chicago, USA ‘This enterprising work will ultimately transform our understanding of cinema’s early artistic tendencies. Kaveh Askari’s examination of how film intersected with academia, the lyceum circuit, and the art studio brings to light institutional connections that reveal novel functions for a medium struggling for cultural legitimacy.’ - Charlie Keil, University of Toronto, Canada This fascinating study charts the emergence of American cinema, from pre-cinematic entertainment in the 1890s to early Hollywood. Providing valuable new perspectives on the history of film as art, Kaveh Askari explores how these early forms of cinema related to the visual arts, new arts education theories and other social changes of the time.

Cinema Beyond Territory

The Hollywood Sequel

Inflight Entertainment and Atmospheres of Globalisation

History & Form, 1911-2010

Stephen Groening, George Mason University, USA

This illuminating study charts the changing role of the Hollywood film sequel over the past century. Considering a range of sequels in their industrial, historical and aesthetic contexts, from The Son of a Sheik (1926) to Toy Story 3 (2010), this book provides a comprehensive history of this criticallyneglected yet commercially-dominant art form.

Dr Stuart Henderson, StudioCanal, UK

In this innovative study, Stephen Groening explores in-flight cinema as the convergence of two essentially modern, globalising technologies – aviation and entertainment. Identifying parallels in their social functions and surrounding discourses, this book opens up new directions in the history of cinema, travel and cultural geography.

Advancing Digital Humanities Research, Methods, Theories Edited by Paul Longley Arthur, University of Western Sydney, Australia and Katherine Bode, Australian National University, Australia

‘Advancing Digital Humanities is essential reading for those considering the future of our interdiscipline.” - Professor Ray Siemens, Canada Research Chair in Humanities Computing, University of Victoria, BC, Canada ‘Defining Digital Humanities by what it does rather than wrestling with definitions of what it is, the essays in this vibrant anthology are reports of substantive engagements with the intellectual dimensions of technological tools. Each project in this collection starts from research in a core humanities discipline— literature, history, cultural studies—and extends its questions of style, authorship, influence, production and reception practices through digital means. An excellent volume for those new to the field as well as insiders, each of whom will take away something of value from the carefully crafted insights of these essays.’ - Johanna Drucker, Breslauer Professor of Bibliography, Information Studies, UCLA Advancing Digital Humanities moves beyond definition of this dynamic and fast growing field to show how its arguments, analyses, findings and theories are pioneering new directions in the humanities globally.

‘[This] book is well written, well organized, and well researched, drawing heavily on literature on [The Simpsons] and on satire in general . . . The book is not a fan letter but something far more valuable - an intelligent book about an intelligent sitcom. Summing up: Recommended. All readership levels.’ - CHOICE ‘By highlighting the advancing American culture, from the inception of The Simpsons (and earlier in many cases) to the current political environment in the twenty-first century, Henry does a very good job providing analysis for the ongoing conversation that The Simpsons has created with the American public.’ - The Journal of American Culture How is The Simpsons a satirical artwork engaged with important social, political, and cultural issues? Henry offers the first comprehensive understanding of the show as a satire and explores the ways in which The Simpsons participates in the so-called ‘culture war’ debates taking place in American society.

Kendra Coulter thoughtfully explores the possibility of a revolution in retail that transforms the lives of retail workers, and helps build a more just and equitable society.

This expansive and compelling book offers valuable fodder for everyone concerned about improving standards in this growing sector of the economy, and about the future of work.’ - Stephanie Ross, Associate Professor and Co-Director, Global Labour Research Centre, York University, Canada There is a modest but growing body of scholarly literature on experiences of retail work, with only a handful of studies existing on retail organizing.

The Unbalanced Economy A Policy Appraisal Ciaran Driver, SOAS, University of London, UK and Paul Temple, University of Surrey, UK

”Einstein once described insanity as doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. This important book persuasively demonstrates that a misguided faith in market forces has made Britain prone to booms and busts since the late 1970s and left a dangerously unbalanced economy exposed when the financial storm broke in 2007.” - Larry Elliott, Economics Editor, The Guardian During the 1980s Britain became one of the world’s most market-oriented economies, an approach which resulted in three severe recessions and a deepening degree of inequality. This book argues that a rebalancing of the economy will remain elusive until proactive policies are implemented at the corporate and industrial level. Contents: 1.

Pierre Lemieux, Université du Québec en Outaouais

‘Pierre Lemieux once again debunks one of the most pervasive delusions driving government economic policy. His lucid writing and vivid examples show why federal programs that seek to create jobs are almost guaranteed to breed boondoggles and undermine productivity throughout the economy. Unfortunately, politicians profit from such schemes no matter how much taxpayers suffer.’ - Jim Bovard, author of Attention Deficit Democracy (2006) and Lost Rights: The Destruction of American Liberty (1994) The goal should not be to create jobs, but to let people earn income in order to consume what they want.

India, China and Globalization The Emerging Superpowers and the Future of Economic Development Piya Mahtaney, India

"To write a book on such a well-trodden and controversial subject as globalization and successfully differentiate it from other works is no small feat. That is precisely what Mahtaney accomplishes in this comparative study of India’s and China’s economic development and its implications for future development of other emerging economies... Mahtaney makes illuminating distinctions among growth, increase in per capita real GDP, and development, and raises important issues concerning the future of globalization and economic integration.” - CHOICE The momentum of economic progress in India and China will bring about the next major shift in geopolitics.

Economic Development from the State and Local Perspective Case Studies and Public Policy Debates David J. Robinson, The Ohio State University and the Montrose Group, USA

‘This book is both interesting and informative from the perspective of a true expert in the economic development field.’ Jeff Finkle, President, International Economic Development Council, USA This definitive work mixes case law, public policy, economic strategy, and examines the wide range of issues facing efforts to improve the American economy, to illustrate how economic growth is driven through strong public-private partnerships, and how successful growth strategies from the state and local level operate to grow jobs.

Markets and Morals Edited by Edward Skidelsky, University of Exeter, UK and Robert Skidelsky, University of Warwick

Lessons in Sustainable Development from Japan and South Korea

This volume scrutinizes the functionality of a capitalist market society, which is usually praised for the efficiency and dynamism, rather than for its morality. It addresses the dualism behind capitalism’s encouragement of greed, which is usually considered to be a moral failing, while also being a driver behind economic growth.

Islamic Feminism in Kuwait The Politics and Paradoxes Alessandra L. González, Institute for the Studies of Religion, Baylor University, USA

"Basing her book on interviews and a survey of over one thousand Kuwaiti college students conducted in 2008, the author reveals the complexities and paradoxes inherent in the relationship between gender, religion, and social traditions in a Muslim society. What is clear is that activism on behalf of women’s rights can only succeed if viewed as “legitimate” in the context of religious authority, community norms, and the political framework. Muslim women are seeking their own path to improving their status, one that “fills a niche that Western, individualistic, and secular-based feminism could not reach in traditional, majority Muslim societies . . . Recommended.” - Choice “A brilliant work on a far too neglected topic one of increasing importance.” - Rodney Stark, author of America’s Blessings (2012) and The Rise of Christianity (1996) Drawing on interviews and fieldwork in Kuwait and throughout the Arabian Peninsula, this book explores what cultural elites in the Arab Gulf region have to say about women’s political and cultural rights and how their faith is or is not related to their politics.

Band of Giants

History

The Amateur Soldiers Who Won America’s Independence

American and Latin American History

Jack Kelly, journalist, novelist, and historian, USA

War Dogs Tales of Canine Heroism, History, and Love Rebecca Frankel, Foreign Policy Magazine

In War Dogs, Rebecca Frankel offers a riveting mix of on-the-ground reporting, her own hands-on experiences in the military working dog world, and a look at the science of dogs’ special abilities—from their amazing noses and powerful jaws to their enormous sensitivity to the emotions of their human companions. The history of dogs in the US military is long and rich, from the spirit-lifting mascots of the Civil War to the dogs still leading patrols hunting for IEDs today. Frankel not only interviewed handlers who deployed with dogs in wars from Vietnam to Iraq, but top military commanders, K-9 program managers, combattrained therapists who brought dogs into war zones as part of a preemptive measure to stave off PTSD, and veterinary technicians stationed in Bagram. She makes a passionate case for maintaining a robust war-dog force. In a post-9/11 world rife with terrorist threats, nothing is more effective than a bomb-sniffing dog and his handler. With a compelling cast of humans and animals, this moving book is a must read for all dog lovers— military and otherwise.

Band of Giants brings to life the founders who fought for our independence. Jefferson, Adams, and Franklin are known to all; men like Morgan, Greene, and Wayne are less familiar. Yet the dreams of the politicians and theorists only became real because fighting men were willing to take on the grim, risky, brutal work of war. We know Fort Knox, but what about Henry Knox, the burly Boston bookseller who took over the American artillery at the age of 25? Eighteen counties in the United States commemorate Richard Montgomery, but do we know that this revered martyr launched a full-scale invasion of Canada? The soldiers of the Revolution were a diverse lot: merchants and mechanics, farmers and fishermen, paragons and drunkards. Most were ardent amateurs. Even George Washington, assigned to take over the army around Boston in 1775, consulted books on military tactics. Band of Giants vividly captures the fraught condition of the war - the bitterly divided populace, the lack of supplies, the repeated setbacks on the battlefield, and the appalling physical hardships. That these inexperienced warriors could take on and defeat the superpower of the day was one of the remarkable feats in world history.

The Appropriation and Misrepresentation of African American Popular Culture

Conversations with Julian Bond

Baruti N. Kopano, Morgan State University, USA and Tamara Lizette Brown, Bowie State University, USA

Drawing on a wealth of oral interviews, Conversations on Black Leadership uses the lives of prominent African Americans to trace the contours of Black leadership in America. Included here are fascinating accounts from a wide variety of figures such as John Lewis, Clarence Thomas, Eleanor Holmes Norton, Angela Davis, Amiri Baraka, and many more.

Considers the misappropriation of African American popular culture through various genres, largely Hip Hop, to argue that while such cultural creations have the potential to be healing agents, they are still exploited -often with the complicity of African Americans- for commercial purposes and to maintain white ruling class hegemony.

Writing Romanticism Jacqueline M. Labbe, University of Sheffield, UK

"Jacqueline Labbe’s work on Charlotte Smith is second to none...Labbe’s is a bold vision, and one likely to change the way in which we view early Romanticism." - Claire Knowles, European Romantic Review What is ‘Wordsworthian’ Romanticism and how did it evolve? This book argues that only by reading Charlotte Smith’s poetry in tandem with William Wordsworth’s can this question be answered, demonstrating their mutual contribution to the creation of the ‘Wordsworthian’, through literary analysis and historical contextualizing of their writings.

Geocritical Explorations Space, Place, and Mapping in Literary and Cultural Studies Edited by Robert T. Tally Jr., Texas State University, USA

‘Ranging across the cartography, ecology, insularity, frontiers, topography, and many other aspects of places on five different continents as figured in fiction and nonfiction, poetry and prose, the essays in this volume demonstrate that place is never a simple matter, just a neglected one. They teach us fruitful ways to attend to place in literature, and thereby to recover its role in the making of our world.’ Ricardo Padrón, Associate Professor of Spanish, University of Virginia, USA and author of The Spacious Word In recent years the spatial turn in literary and cultural studies has opened up new ways of looking at the interactions among writers, readers, texts, and place.

Winner of the 2012 CHOICE Outstanding Academic Book award ‘As Jean Franco remarks in the introduction to this extraordinary collection of essays, Marta Lamas ‘remains required reading’ for those wishing to understand the role of women in the project of ‘redefining and promoting democracy’ in the world. This translated collection of four of Lamas’s key essays, many of which have been circulating for years throughout Latin America, particularly in her home nation of Mexico, provides English readers an essential if not classical set of insights into what Lamas calls the ‘transmissions and retransmissions’ of feminist thought that links psychoanalysis to Marxism and anthropology . . . [The book] finally brings marginalized Latin American intellectualism north where it is sorely needed.’ -CHOICE Drawing from her years of activism and anthropological scholarship, influential thinker Marta Lama offers invaluable insight into the theoretical and political tensions that have shaped Mexican feminism and the world at large.

Lectures on the Will to Know Michel Foucault, Arnold I. Davidson, University of Chicago, USA and Graham Burchell

Black Bodies and the Black Church A Blues Slant

In the first of his annual series of lectures at the Collège de France, Foucault develops a vigorous Nietzschean history of the will to know through an analysis of changing procedures of truth, legal forms, and class struggles in ancient Greece.

Kelly Brown Douglas, Goucher College, USA

‘A a must-read, full of theological insights about personal God-consciousness and prophetic religious vitality embedded in the heavy-hearted music genre, the blues.’ - Katie G. Cannon, Union Presbyterian Seminary, USA. ‘This book will provoke new conversations and revive old ones about the nature and relevance of the Black Church and its engagements with theodicy. Black Bodies and the Black Church is a serious moving train that will allow no neutrality for its readers.’ - Cheryl Townsend Gilkes, John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Professor, Colby College, USA. ‘Once again, Kelly Brown Douglas brilliantly, creatively, and powerfully exposes the unholy alliance between the Black Church and internalized forms of class, gender, and sexual oppression.’ - Reverend Dr. Dennis Wiley, Covenant Baptist United Church of Christ, Washington, D.C., USA. Blues is absolutely vital to black theological reflection and to the black church’s existence. In Black Bodies and the Black Church, author Kelly Douglas Brown develops a blues crossroad theology, which allows the black church to remain true to itself and relevant in black lives.

Meltdown in Tibet China’s Reckless Destruction of Ecosystems from the Highlands of Tibet to the Deltas of Asia Michael Buckley, freelance travel writer, moves between Asia and Canada

Tibetans have experienced waves of genocide since the 1950s. Now they are facing ecocide. The Himalayan snowcaps are in meltdown mode, due to climate change - accelerated by a rain of black soot from massive burning of coal and other fuels in both China and India. The mighty rivers of Tibet are being dammed by Chinese engineering consortiums to feed the mainland’s thirst for power, and the land is being relentlessly mined in search of minerals to feed China’s industrial complex. On the drawing board are plans for a massive engineering project to divert water from Eastern Tibet to water-starved Northern China. Ruthless Chinese repression leaves Tibetans powerless to stop the reckless destruction of their sacred land, but they are not the only victims of this campaign: the nations downstream from Tibet rely heavily on rivers sourced in Tibet for water supply, and for rich silt used in agriculture. This ecocide has been happening with little scrutiny until now. Meltdown in Tibet turns the spotlight on the darkest side of China's emergence as a global super power.

The European Union in Global Security The Politics of Impact Roy H. Ginsberg, Skidmore College, USA and Susan E. Penksa, Department of Political Science, Westmont College, USA

"The authors provide a pathbreaking analysis of the EU’s contribution to global security and the 'politics of impact' as it plays out in Brussels, member state capitals, and host states and among other security providers. The authors’ template for assessing the impact of crisis management operations should be considered by policy-makers and practitioners who seek to understand - and improve - the impact of civilian and military missions.” - Jamie Shea, NATO Deputy Assistant Secretary General “This book is a landmark for the debate on the security policy of the European Union: the authors’ thorough review of existing literature, innovative approach to evaluating EU crisis management operations, and insightful and comprehensive analyses deserve highest attention in the political arena and in the academic world.” - Wolfgang Wessels, Jean Monnet Chair for European Affairs, University of Cologne, Germany Does the EU matter in international security? The authors identify and explain the drivers of and brakes to EU foreign security action, offer methods of assessment to ascertain influence, and conclude that the union has become a niche international security provider that has in turn strengthened EU foreign policy.

Explanatory Approaches in Small-N Research Prof. Dr. Joachim Blatter, Department of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Lucerne, Switzerland and Markus Haverland, Department of Public Administration, Erasumus University Rotterdam, The Netherlands

The book by Joachim Blatter and Markus Haverland contributes significantly to this field of study in two ways: firstly, it suggests a new, convincing typology of case studies; and secondly, it takes the ‘designing’ aspect of its title seriously by including many case studies from political science research to provide practical illustrations of their three suggested modes of designing case studies.” - Julian Junk, West European Politics, 36:4, 893-894 The authors explore three ways of conducting causal analysis in case studies. They draw on established practices as well as on recent innovations in case study methodology and integrate these insights into coherent approaches. They highlight the core features of each approach and provide advice on each step of the research process. Contents: / 1. Relevance and Refinements of Case Studies / 2. Co-variational Analysis / 3. Causal-Process Tracing / 4. Congruence Analysis / 5. Combining Diverse Research Approaches

“This excellent, concise, book makes a major contribution to the literature of international relations… I am delighted to recommend [it] warmly to scholars and a wider readership alike.” - David M. Malone, Rector of the United Nation University and Under-SecretaryGeneral of the UN “The United Nations is a place where realism and idealism meet. Trudy Fraser’s account of UN history captures the full range of the organization’s aspirations, accomplishments and inevitable disappointments—always with an eye toward forging a positive future. Students and policymakers alike should read it as an indispensable guide—and a companion— to the possibilities and limitations of global governance.”- Joel H.

An American Bride in Kabul A Memoir Phyllis Chesler, emerita professor, City University of New York, USA

“Engrossing...Chesler adroitly blends her personal narrative with a riveting account of Afghanistan’s troubled history, the ongoing Islamic/Islamist terrorism against Muslim civilians and the West, and the continuing struggle and courage of Afghan feminists.” - Publishers Weekly Twenty years old and in love, Phyllis Chesler, a Jewish-American girl from Brooklyn, embarked on an adventure that has lasted for more than a half-century. In 1961, when she arrived in Kabul with her Afghan bridegroom, authorities took away her American passport. Chesler was now the property of her husband’s family and had no rights of citizenship. Back in Afghanistan, her husband, a wealthy, westernized foreign college student with dreams of reforming his country, reverted to traditional and tribal customs. Chesler found herself unexpectedly trapped in a posh polygamous family. She fought against her seclusion and lack of freedom, her Afghan family’s attempts to convert her from Judaism to Islam, and her husband’s wish to permanently tie her to the country through childbirth. Drawing upon her personal diaries, Chesler recounts her ordeal, the nature of gender apartheid—and her longing to explore this beautiful, ancient, and exotic country and culture. An American Bride in Kabul re-creates a time gone by, a place that is no more, and shares the way in which Chesler turned adversity into a passion for worldwide social, educational, and political reform.

The Inside Story of How Fundraisers Allowed Billionaires to Take Over Politics

US Environmental Policy

Lindsay Mark Lewis, Progressive Policy Institute, USA, Jim Arkedis, writer, political analyst, and consultant, USA

A Practical Approach to Understanding Implementation

How is it that politics has become so focused on the almighty dollar and the cost of political campaigns so expensive? Lindsay Mark Lewis is arguably the person best able to answer those questions—the notorious political fundraiser renowned for his willingness to do almost anything to get the next political dollar in the war chest. He was part of the new political mob responsible for the excessive influence of money on campaigns. Co-authored with writer and political analyst Jim Arkedis, Political Mercenaries is a fascinating look into how American politics, to contradict former Speaker Tip O’Neill, is now all national money. This book emerges at a time when millions of Americans are more skeptical than ever about politicians on both sides of the aisle and how they obtain the money that funds their campaigns.

Why America Can’t Have (and Doesn’t Want) Another Great President

Overruled

Aaron David Miller, Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, USA

The Long War for Control of the U.S. Supreme Court

The End of Greatness explores the concept of greatness in the presidency and the ways in which it has become both essential and detrimental to America and the nation’s politics. Miller argues that greatness in presidents is a much overrated virtue. Indeed, greatness is too rare to be relevant in our current politics, and driven as it is by nationencumbering crisis, too dangerous to be desirable. 288pp 234x156mm £17.99 9781137279002

The Subject of Psychosis: A Lacanian Perspective Stijn Vanheule, Ghent University, Belgium

Social Work and Social Policy

Best Practice with Children and Families

”[Vanheule’s] clear expository style displays an impressive command of Lacanian theory that will be instructive for anyone who wishes to grasp the difficult logic of Lacan’s project. […] The Subject of Psychosis may be the clearest and most rigorous analysis of Lacanian theory in print.” – Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association “This text offers an excellent reading of Lacan’s development of a theory of the subject of psychosis that should serve as a springboard into the practise of the psychoanalytic clinic today.” Theory and Psychology “The Subject of Psychosis: A Lacanian Perspective is an extraordinarily clear decomposition of Lacan’s trajectory from surrealist concerns with representations of madness to literary attempts to signifierise it.” – Psychoanalytical Notebooks “An important contribution to Lacanian work in English, Vanheule’s text is a much-needed, theoretically clear, lucid, sophisticated and critical understanding of Lacanian theory on psychosis.” - Psychoanalysis, Culture and Society

Critical Social Work Stories

This book discusses what Jacques Lacan’s oeuvre contributes to our understanding of psychosis. Presenting a close reading of original texts, Stijn Vanheule proposes that Lacan’s work on psychosis can best be framed in terms of four broad periods.

Developing Resilience for Social Work Practice

The Compleat Social Worker

Edited by Louise Grant, University of Bedfordshire, UK and Gail Kinman, University of Bedfordshire, UK

This book provides a guide to the challenges and tensions bound up in the role of being a social worker. David Howe explores how practitioners have to contain sometimes quite opposing functions or philosophies in the work that they do, and demonstrates that in order to be effective and practise with skill and wisdom, they have to encompass it all.

Because of the emotional demands of the social work role, it is crucial that practitioners proactively look after their own wellbeing. This book provides an essential tool box of evidence-based approaches designed to enhance practitioner’s resilience to stress, and help them manage the emotional demands of the profession.

In straightforward prose, Jane Monckton Smith, Amanda Williams and Frank Mullane combine a fearless argument for reform, with original research, a lucid summary and solid critique of current interventions, numerous case examples and an array of tools that justice, health and social work professionals can immediately apply to improve their practice. In a powerful chapter, Frank Mullane draws on his extensive experience with surviving families of partner homicide victims to outline lessons we cannot afford to ignore.” - Evan Stark, Rutgers University, USA Based on research with frontline professionals and domestic abuse and homicide victims, this book argues for a re-conceptualisation of the female victim to enhance safety management and encourage a deeper understanding of the emotional dynamics and social structures which perpetuate violence.

Conjugality Marriage and Marriage-like Relationships before the Law Heather Brook, Flinders University, Australia

‘Women’s studies scholar Brook . . . critically interrogates marriage and the regulation of conjugal relationships. Aptly using theoretical insights from Foucault and Butler, she offers a sharp critique of feminist discussions of marriage as a stable social institution and proposes new ways of conceptualizing marriage as a dynamic arena of regulation based on governmentality, corporeality, and performativity. Basing her study on the analysis of legal and social discourse in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, Brook applies her framework in discussing historical and contemporary issues around marriage including same-sex marriage, cohabitation, and divorce . . . Overall, this is an important contribution to the field of women’s studies and feminist theory, and will also be widely accessible for readers who want to learn more about changing meanings of marriage and intimate relationships. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All levels/libraries.’ - CHOICE

A broad, multidisciplinary and upto-date analysis of the current state of global inequality that draws on major theories and contemporary evidence in order to explain the need for concern about global inequality, to consider the historical trends and causes of global inequality and to question the efficacy of social policy.

”This is a very timely book indeed, a novel approach giving the reader both a clear summary of different subjects and events and a guide to further reading: timely because not for many decades have issues in relation to public order been so divisive.”- Ian, Lord Blair of Boughton, Commissioner, Metropolitan Police, 2005-8 “This timely volume is a lucid contribution to the growing knowledge of policing of public order, in an era when the role of policing in the development of democracy has never been more important. It is an essential reference for anyone trying to understand the complex issues police face in preserving both peace and dialogue.” - Lawrence W. Sherman, Wolfson Professor of Criminology, University of Cambridge, UK

Headscarf Politics in Turkey

Drugs in Africa

A Postcolonial Reading

Edited by Gernot Klantschnig, University of Nottingham, Ningbo, China Neil Carrier, African Studies Centre, Oxford and Charles Ambler

Merve Kavakci Islam, Howard University, USA, John L. Esposito, and Lord Eric Avebury

”Kavakci Islam’s sensitive,deeply informed, and courageous investigation of formation of national identity provides great insight into the complex problems confronting Turkey in the post-Ottoman period of modernization, and particularly the role of women as symbols, victims, and agents.Though the focus is on Turkeyand the politics of women’s attire,the implications reach well beyond.It is a most timely and valuable contribution to understanding of difficult issues that arise in some form throughout today’s world.” - Noam Chomsky This book questions the ‘role model’ status of the Turkish Republic with respect to the advancement of female agency in a secular context by using the study of women with headscarves as a case in point. Turkey’s commitment to modernization depends heavily on secularism which involves, among other things, the westernization of women’s appearance.

Self, Identity, and Social Institutions Neil J. MacKinnon, Professor Emeritus, University of Guelph Canada, and David R. Heise, Indiana University, USA

‘This is the most comprehensive treatment of self and identity I have seen in a very long time. The clear, incisive, and evenhanded exposition by two master theoreticians and researchers should be in every social psychologist’s library - students and seasoned professionals alike.’ -Timothy J. Owens, Associate Professor of Sociology, Purdue University, USA ‘This book is a broad, powerful statement of a new cybernetic theory of self and identity. It builds on earlier theoretical work in affect control theory, but is a distinct contribution at a different (higher) level of analysis. It also includes a cultural theory of people that operates at a more cognitive level, and proposes a new methodology for locating and describing institutions. This is a major new work.’ - Lynn Smith-Lovin, Robert L. Wilson Professor of Sociology, Duke University, USA This book shows how the individual constructs a self from the thousands of colloquial identities provided by a society’s culture, and reveals how the individual actualizes and sustains an integrated and stable self while navigating the sometimes treacherous waters of everyday institutional life.

Equality, Citizenship, and Segregation

Fitness Culture

A Multidisciplinary Introduction

Gyms and the Commercialisation of Discipline and Fun

A Defense of Separation Michael S. Merry, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands

‘This book represents a highly original contribution to one of the most incendiary debates on education in our times, the voluntary separation of ‘stigmatized groups’ versus their compulsory ‘integration’ within pluralist liberal democracies. Supported and sustained by both extensive empirical evidence and context-sensitive moral theory, Merry impugns integration on the one hand as a liberaldemocratic requirement and as an effective – or even desirable – policy on the other. I highly recommend it.’ - Veit Bader, Professor Emeritus, Sociology and Political Theory, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands Merry argues that most voluntary separation experiments in education are not driven by a sense of racial, cultural or religious superiority. Rather, they are driven among other things by a desire for quality education, not to mention community membership and self respect. Contents: Table of Contents / Foreword / 1. Introduction / 2.

Lisa Smith, University of Leicester, UK and John Bond, University of Leicester, UK

Professor Roberta Sassatelli, University of Milan, Italy

"This engaging exploration of what sustains gym membership as a consumer practice will be of interest to scholars of studies of consumption, the body, leisure and health.” - CHOICE Review “Rejecting cultural dupe models, so prevalent in consumerist analyses of fitness, Sassatelli provides a comprehensive analysis of the range of complicated and sometimes contradictory meanings that participants use to understand their continued participation in a commodified fitness culture.” - Journal of Consumer Culture

An accessible guide for students across a variety of disciplines who are studying forensic evidence throughout the criminal justice system. Containing up to date and classic case studies, photos and examples, it assumes no prior scientific knowledge to ensure the discussion is clear but comprehensive.

This book, now in paperback, provides a sociological perspective on fitness culture as developed in commercial gyms, investigating the cultural relevance of gyms in terms of the history of the commercialization of body discipline, the negotiation of gender identities and distinction dynamics within contemporary cultures of consumption.

Transposing Broadway Jews, Assimilation, and the American Musical Stuart J. Hecht, Boston College, USA

"Acknowledging the important role of Jews in developing the twentieth-century Broadway musical, Hecht argues that Jews shaped the musical ‘to represent their grappling with the promise of the American Dream.’ Summing Up: Recommended.” - CHOICE “Stuart Hecht, in his entertaining and downright brilliant Transposing Broadway, proves that scholars have only just scratched the surface of this significant subject, opening a deep vein of gold that reveals just how important the contributions of Jewish artists have been in developing the American musical.” - Theatre History Studies Over the last hundred years, musical theatre artists have developed a form that corresponds directly to the Americanization of the increasingly Jewish New York audience. Hecht offers a fascinating examination of the relationship between Jews, assimilation, and the changing face of the American musical in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Contents: 1.

"With Cyborg Theatre, Parker-Starbuck has created a rigorous and engaging resource for scholars, practitioners, pedagogues, and students of multimedia performance... [The book provides] a valuable model of performance studies scholarship that can serve to guide future investigations of cyborg performance.” Elise Morrison, Contemporary Theatre Review “Cyborg Theatre is essential reading for all those interested in the complex and multiple intertwinings between bodies and technologies, in theatre and performance, and in life overall, in an environment within which technology claims increasing degrees of agency.” - Maria Chatzichristodoulou, International Journal of Performance Arts and Digital Media This book articulates the first theoretical context for a ‘cyborg theatre,’ metaphorically integrating on-stage bodies with the technologized, digitized, or mediatized, to re-imagine subjectivity for a post-human age. It covers a variety of examples, to propose new theoretical tools for understanding performance in our changing world.

‘This is an original and thought-provoking book that casts a muchneeded critical gaze over recent developments in criminal justice policy and the ‘victim agenda’. Duggan and Heap astutely situate these shifts within a wider criminological framework, and demonstrate their convergence with neoliberal strategies of crime control. A timely study that should be read by all scholars and students of criminology, as well as practitioners, who are interested in the how we treat the victims of crime.’ - Professor Majid Yar, University of Hull, UK This study addresses the management of victims and victim policy under the Coalition government, in light of an increasing move towards neoliberal and punitive law and order agendas. With a focus on victims of anti-social behaviour and hate crime, Duggan and Heap explore the changing role of the victim in contemporary criminal justice discourses.

Foucault on the Politics of Parrhesia Torben Bech Dyrberg, Department of Society and Globalisation, University of Roskilde, Denmark

Scandinavian Object Shift and Optimality Theory Eva Engels, Aarhus University, Denmark and Sten Vikner, Aarhus University, Denmark

Foucault saw the notion of parrhesia (truthtelling) as the most important factor for how governments could and should communicate with their people and vice versa. This important collection compiles and analyses Foucault’s views on parrhesia to shed new light on his ideas on the importance of truth-telling in democracies.

This book presents an account of object shift, a word order phenomenon found in most of the Scandinavian languages where an object occurs unexpectedly to the left and not to the right of a sentential adverbial. With new and original observations, it is an important addition to the fields of phonology, optimality theory and theoretical syntax.

Hoarders, Doomsday Preppers, and the Culture of Apocalypse Gwendolyn Audrey Foster, University of NebraskaLincoln, USA

"Gwendolyn Audrey Foster writes passionately about the debased media-scape of our death-worshipping culture. She probes into our collective fascination with an Earth without us, even as we continue activities that are sure to lead to yet more ecological devastation and mass extinction. Hoarders, Doomsday Preppers, and the Culture of Apocalypse is not a comforting book, but it is an eloquent call from a voice crying in the wilderness: a warning that we ignore at our peril.” – Steven Shaviro, DeRoy Professor, English, Wayne State University, USA The culture of twenty-first century America revolves around narcissistic death, violence, and visions of doom. Foster explores this culture of the apocalypse, from hoarding and gluttony to visions of the post-apocalyptic world. Contents: / 1. Disposable Bodies / 2. Bunker Mentality / 3.

From the Axial Age to the Moral Revolution John Stuart-Glennie, Karl Jaspers, and a New Understanding of the Idea Eugene Halton, University of Notre Dame, USA

‘Halton has creatively introduced a new voice into the current pursuit of the ‘axial age,’ so thoroughly that readers who will never see Stuart-Glennie’s rare books leave Halton’s analysis with a clear understanding of what until now has been missing from the record. Intellectual historians are always on the look-out for fresh, previously overlooked material to reanimate. Halton has thus resurrected Stuart-Glennie with dedication and skill.’ - Alan Sica, Professor of Sociology, Pennsylvania State University, USA In 1873, John Stuart Stuart-Glennie elaborated a theory of ‘the moral revolution’ to characterize the historical shift from roughly 600 BCE in a variety of civilizations, as part of a critical theory of history. This book brings light to the now eclipsed theory and offers new contexts and understandings of the phenomenon. Contents: Preface / 1. Jaspers, Stuart-Glennie and the Origins of the Theory / 2.

It is very promising, timely, and exciting.’ – Stephanie Jones, Associate Professor of Elementary and Social Studies Education, University of Georgia, USA Bringing together sociology of the body with powerful examinations of educational theory and social class, Henry examines how children’s experiences of school and pedagogy are shaped by their bodies and the ideas of social class and class identity that their bodies carry.

Erik Jones, SAIS Bologna Center, The Johns Hopkins University, Italy

”The Eurozone crisis threw a bewildering array of factors, actors, institutions and rules in the faces of those who sought to divine what was actually going on. In the midst of the crisis few of us thought to provide the world with a week-by-week summary and analysis of events. And yet Erik Jones has done just that, giving scholars and policymakers perhaps the definitive timeline of what went wrong, where, and why.” - Mark Blyth, author of Austerity: The History of a Dangerous Idea (2014) “A really good idea, really well implemented. Jones tackles a year of the eurozone crisis with typical verve and originality. The reader can follow events enfolding, and gain a profound insight both into the decisions taken, the rationales behind them, and their potential implications.” - Anand Menon, Professor of European Politics and Foreign Affairs, King’s College London, UK The author narrates the end of the European crisis from the June 2012 European Council summit through the bailout of Cyprus. Paying particular attention to political developments in Italy, the book shows the fragility of market confidence and the waving attitudes of political elites.

"Soft" Counterinsurgency Human Terrain Teams and US Military Strategy in Iraq and Afghanistan Paul Joseph, Tufts University, USA

‘An original, inside look at the role of militarily embedded social scientists in Afghanistan seeking to win the hearts and minds of the people. Paul Joseph shows the inherent contradictions in the fashionable doctrines of ‘soft counterinsurgency’ and the inevitable failure of any war based on occupation, while also illuminating the ethical compromises affecting social scientists who would conduct their craft under combat conditions.’ - Charlie Derber, Professor of Sociology, Boston College, USA ‘Joseph’s book artfully evokes the idealistic intentions of the Human Terrain Teams social scientists, the bureaucratic disorganization of a program in disarray, and an unforgiving wartime environment. This book is indispensable reading for anyone seeking to understand not just why this program failed, but why civilian and military employees of the Pentagon have difficulty working together.’ - Hugh Gusterson, Professor of Anthropology and Sociology, George Mason University, USA

Contents: / Prologue: How Europe Fell Into Crisis / 1. Europe Decides to Act / 2. The Markets Respond / 3. Risk Returns through Italy and Cyprus / 4. The European Crisis Ends / 5. Beyond the European Crisis

Nyla Ali Khan, University of Oklahoma and Gopalkrishan Gandhi, Independent Scholar

With a perspective heightened by distance from her home country and a tone at times tinged with a nostalgia that she herself is wary of, the author paints a loving and personal picture of a powerful woman whose role and actions gave Kashmir a model for women’s political action in the critical period before and after the partition of India in 1947.” - Catherine Hobbs, Professor of English and Women’s and Gender Studies, University of Oklahoma, USA Capturing the history of Kashmir and its cultural and social evolution, Nyla Ali Kahn deconstructs the life of her grandmother and other women of her generation to reconceptualize woman’s identity in a politically militarized zone.

The Logic of Wish and Fear

Drugs on the Dark Net

New Perspectives on Genres of Western Fiction

How Cryptomarkets are Transforming the Global Trade in Illicit Drugs

Ben La Farge, Bard College, USA

A remarkably rich mosaic that shows us - in short form but packing a punch - a great deal about the wondrously intricate ways in which literature is a tool with which we make sense of our lives.” - Garry L. Hagberg, James H. Ottaway Jr. Professor of Aesthetics and Philosophy, Bard College, USA “With the utmost clarity, precision and rigor, Ben La Farge presents us with fresh, indeed exciting thinking about the ‘emotional logic’ of comedy, romance, tragedy and what he calls ‘mythic fiction.’ Building upon Aristotle, Hegel, Northrop Frye and Auden, yet marking important paths of his own, he makes a necessary and permanent contribution to our understanding of genre and the master stories of our lives. This is a distinguished study indeed, a perfect fusion of theory and practice, the fruit of serious contemplation and exuberant interrogation.” - Elizabeth Frank, Author of the 1986 Pulitzer Prize biography Louise Bogan: A Portrait, and the 2004 novel Cheat and Charmer Moving effortlessly from Greek to Shakespearean tragedies, to nineteenth and twentieth-century British, American and Russian drama, and fiction and contemporary television, this study sheds new light on the art of comedy.

William Corder and the Red Barn Murder Journeys of the Criminal Body

James Martin, Macquarie University, Australia

”This is a timely, topical and fascinating study that sheds muchneeded light into the dark recesses of the Internet. Through an exploration of online cryptomarkets, Martin offers new insights into the globally shifting landscape of crime. It should be essential reading for all those interested in cybercrime, the trade in illicit drugs, and the impact of new technologies on criminal markets.” - Professor Majid Yar, University of Hull, UK This study explores the rapidly expanding world of online illicit drug trading. Since the fall of the infamous Silk Road, a new generation of cryptomarkets can be found thriving on the dark net. Martin explores how these websites defy powerful law enforcement agencies and represent the new digital front in the ‘war on drugs’.

Shane McCorristine, University of Leicester, UK

This study reassesses the criminal body from sentencing to execution and afterlife, using the nineteenth-century Red Barn murder as a case study.

UNDP’s Engagement with the Private Sector, 1994-2011 Zarlasht Muhammad Razeq, University of Ottawa, Canada

‘The UNDP’s Engagement with the Private Sector begins with a great puzzle: why has the UNDP taken a U-turn in its attitude to engaging with business since the late 1990s? In answering it, the book suggests that changing norms on corporate social responsibility played a more significant role than state interests or functional concerns. Drawing on interviews and document analysis, Razeq has written a thoughtful and original contribution to our understanding of how international organizations work in a changing global context.’ - Jacqueline Best, University of Ottawa, Canada An engaging explanation and unique analysis of the increased involvement of the private sector in one of the world’s most influential development organizations, the United Nations Development Program. Contents: Introduction / 1. Intergovernmental Development Organizations and the Private Sector Partnerships in the Literature / 2. Intergovernmental Development Organizations and Policy Innovation in International Relations Theories / 3. The Evolution of the United Nations Development Program’s Engagement with the Private Sector / 4. Explaining the Causes of Policy Innovation / Conclusion

Realism, Form and the Postcolonial Novel

The Circulation of European Knowledge

Nicholas Robinette, Quinnipac University, USA

‘Exploring a truly timely topic, Nicholas Robinette’s analysis intercedes in a set of conversations about the relation between form and politics in 20th century Anglophone literature, with particular attention to what we now call literatures of the Global South. Scholars of postcolonial studies will greatly benefit from Robinette’s insightful and important intervention.’ - Susan Z. Andrade, Associate Professor of English, University of Pittsburgh, USA Confronted with apartheid, dictatorship or the sheer scale of global economics, realism can no longer function with the certainties of the nineteenth century. Free Realist Style considers how the style of the realist novel changes as its epistemological horizons narrow.

Brain, Mind and Internet

Teenage Talk

The Late 19th Century

A Deep History and Future

From General Characteristics to the Use of Pragmatic Markers in a Contrastive Perspective

Samuel Taylor-Alexander, The University of Auckland, New Zealand

‘The politics of medicine, the sociotechnical assembling of norms and harms, and the constitution of subjects are skilfully shown by Taylor-Alexander to be processes that are tightly interwoven indeed, co-produced - in the experimental clinical praxis of face-transplantation. In this subtle book we confront key questions around identity and care that resist easy answers, and are invited into a world of operating theatres, drugs, scars and mirrors that few of us will encounter but which demand consideration and engagement.’ - Martyn Pickersgill, University of Edinburgh, UK Drawing together interview material, medical publications, and first-hand accounts, this book shows that what is being remade in the burgeoning medical field of face transplantation is not only the lives of patients, but also the very ways that state institutions, surgeons, and families make sense of rights, claims for inclusion, and life itself.

This book critically evaluates the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5).

112pp 216x138mm £45.00 9781137436689

”Since 9/11 acts of hate directed at Muslim communities have become one of contemporary society’s most significant social issues. Drawing upon their own groundbreaking research, renowned experts Zempi and Chakraborti have produced a superb work that details the harms caused by Islamophobic faith hate targeted against veiled women. Their findings, brilliantly outlined here, offer new and important insights into the nature and impact of gendered aspects of Islamophobia and exemplify why Islamophobia, Victimisation and the Veil will become the key text for scholars and practitioners working in this area.” Jon Garland, University of Surrey, UK This book examines the experiences of veiled Muslim women as victims of Islamophobia, and the impact of this victimisation upon women, their families and wider Muslim communities.
