Anne de France and Her Family: Genealogies of Premodern Gendered Power and Influence (Queenship and Power)
by Zita Eva RohrThis book demonstrates that premodern elite and royal women were critical to the geopolitical success of late medieval territorial monarchies, the progenitors of early modern states. It aims to communicate the 'un-exceptionality' of female political influence in medieval and early modern Europe. Manifesting sophisticated and informed leadership in times of challenge and transformation, women such as Anne de France, her matrilineal line, and the elite women and girls in her orbit were key to early modern government, politics and diplomacy. Through a longue durée case study, this book examines generations of a premodern matriline culminating in Anne, beginning with Elisabetta di Carinzia and her daughter, Elionor de Sicília, continuing with Elionor's daughters-in-law, moving into the territories of the insular and peninsular kingdoms of Naples, into France with Elionor's granddaughter, Yolande d'Aragon, and into England with Yolande&’s granddaughter, Marguerite d'Anjou, to influence and underwrite powerful and influential territorial monarchies. Together, these women, and the others discussed in this study, form an important part of Anne de France&’s matrilineal heritage, providing her with a historical template of lived political experience on which to construct her own gendered political theory and practice.

Von der Aufklärung zur Postmoderne: Stadt, Architektur, Gesellschaft
by Gert KählerDie Aufklärung Mitte des 18. Jahrhunderts schuf eine Architektur auf der Grundlage der Rationalität - den Klassizismus. Die sich verändernde Gesellschaft stellte aber Anforderungen, die mit den traditionellen Methoden gar nicht lösbar waren - Industrialisierung und Bevölkerungswachstum musste in traditionelle Architekturkonzepte überführt oder völlig neu gedacht werden. Die großen Umbrüche am Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts, Industrialisierung und Kriege, und eine sich verändernde Gesellschaft zeigten, dass der Versuch, einen Stil für alle zu entwickeln, zum Scheitern verurteilt war. Die Moderne trat mit diesem Ansatz an - ein neuer, voraussetzungsloser Stil für eine neue Gesellschaft -, musste aber scheitern. Heute stellen sich ganz andere als Stilfragen: Die Entwicklung weg von einer Stadt für alle hin zum Ort einer Zweidrittel-Gesellschaft.

Understanding Foreign Policy Commentary
by Daniel Mobley Joe GazeleyDrawing on original research, this book introduces the concept of the Foreign Policy Commentariat and explains the significance of the foreign policy commentary articulated in the pages of Foreign Policy and Foreign Affairs magazines. This commentary, presented as distinct from academic analyses, is conceptualized as a discourse that reproduces certain unproblematized understandings of how foreign policy and international relations function. Using intersectional gender and postcolonial approaches, the book examines commentary about the Obama, first Trump, and Biden administrations. Applying these critical approaches reveals the particular forms of knowledge and relationships of power reproduced through foreign policy commentary. Through challenging supposedly universal foreign policy concepts, these intersecting theories highlight how foreign policy commentary perpetuates a vaguely realist worldview which, we argue, employs theoretical concepts as facts rather than analytical tools. As its empirical analysis concludes at the end of the Biden administration, the book also documents the seeming retreat of a post-WWII US foreign policy consensus.
The Good Lives Model of Correctional Rehabilitation: Integrating Theory, Research, and Practice (Advances in Preventing and Treating Violence and Aggression)
by Tony Ward David S. Prescott Gwenda M. Willis Stijn Vandevelde Mary Barnao Wouter WanzeeleThe book examines the Good Lives Model (GLM) of correctional rehabilitation and its dual aims of risk reduction and well-being enhancement for individuals who have committed crimes. It describes the use of individuals’ prioritized values in intervention plans and to capitalize on and further develop their strengths and reduce the risk for future offending. The book directly addresses the differences between purely risk-oriented rehabilitation correctional models (e.g., Risk-Need-Responsivity Model) and strength-based approaches (e.g., GLM) and the clinical advantages of using the latter. It updates the GLM in the context of recent work in evolutionary biology, quality of life and well-being, cognitive neuroscience, developmental psychology, human rights, naturalistic ethics, criminology, desistance research, and theoretical reformulations of dynamic risk and protective factors. Case studies illustrate the detailed application of GLM evidence-based practice plans to adults convicted of crimes and demonstrate the effectiveness of GLM intervention strategies. Key areas of coverage include: GLM community and within-prison intervention strategies. Incorporating dynamic risk factors into GLM case formulations. Incorporating desistance research in postrelease planning and practice. Policy implications of the GLM. The Good Lives Model of Correctional Rehabilitation is a must-have resource for clinicians, therapists, and other professionals as well as researchers, professors, and graduate students in developmental psychology, family studies, forensic psychology, criminology/criminal justice, public health, psychotherapy/counseling, psychiatry, social work, educational policy and politics, health psychology, nursing, and behavioral therapy/rehabilitation.
Gaza Catastrophe: The Genocide in World-Historical Perspective
by Gilbert Achcar"A left-wing materialist perspective that has faded in prominence in the Arab world in recent times."―The Irish Times"Exposes the bankruptcy of Western Liberalism."―JacobinFrom a foremost expert on the Middle East—a searing indictment of the forces that led to genocidal war on Gaza and its reverberations across the globe. The destruction rained on Gaza has been seen and accepted by many as a vengeful overreaction to the reckless Hamas-led attack on October 7, 2023. This book, however, argues that the new catastrophe befalling the Palestinian people is the culmination of a decades-long pattern that runs parallel with Israel’s inexorable shift to the right. It also contends that Gaza was the final nail in the coffin of the Atlanticist "international liberal order" before Donald Trump came back to the White House. Gaza Catastrophe reckons with the lethal consequences far greater than the Nakba of 1948 and the significance of a war waged by an advanced military-industrial state—with full US participation and open support from the West. Renowned political scientist Gilbert Achcar explores the dynamics of a complex historical process that culminated in the war on Gaza and wider conflict in the Middle East. Achcar offers critical insights on the genocide’s regional and international consequences, as well as radical critiques of Zionism, Hamas, and other state and non-state actors. This volume is essential to understanding the root causes of the violence destabilizing the entire region and the wider world, as well as the conditions required to bring it to an end.

The Law and Ethics of Data Sharing in Health Sciences (Perspectives in Law, Business and Innovation)
by Mark Fenwick Marcelo Corrales Compagnucci Timo Minssen Mateo Aboy Kathleen LiddellData sharing – broadly defined as the exchange of health-related data among multiple controllers and processors – has gained increased relevance in the health sciences over recent years as the need and demand for collaboration has increased. This includes data obtained through healthcare provisions, clinical trials, observational studies, public health surveillance programs, and other data collection methods. The practice of data sharing presents several notable challenges, however. Compliance with a complex and dynamic regulatory framework is essential, with the General Data Protection Regulation being a prominent example in a European context. Recent regulatory developments related to clinical trial transparency, trade secrecy, data access, AI training data, and health data spaces further contribute to the difficulties. Simultaneously, government initiatives often encourage scientists to embrace principles of “open data” and “open innovation.”The variety of regulations in this domain has the potential to impede widespread data sharing and hinder innovation. This edited volume, therefore, compiles comparative case studies authored by leading scholars from diverse disciplines and jurisdictions. The book aims to outline the legal complexities of data sharing. By examining real-world scenarios from diverse disciplines and a global perspective, it explores the normative, policy, and ethical dilemmas that surround data sharing in the health sciences today.Chapter Patient Perspectives on Data Sharing, Chapter Supplementary Measures and Appropriate Safeguards for International Transfers of Health Data after Schrems II are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
