"Crowded Out examines how charitable crowdfunding so quickly overtook public life, where it is taking us, and who gets left behind by this new platformed economy. While crowdfunding has become ubiquitous in our lives, it is largely misunderstood by the public: rather than a friendly free market "powered by the kindness" of strangers, crowdfunding is powerfully reinforcing inequalities and changing the way Americans think about, and access, health care. Drawing on extensive research and rich storytelling, Crowded Out demonstrates how crowdfunding for health is fueled by, and further reinforces, financial and moral "toxicities" in market-based health systems."
"Shining the spotlight on everyday readers of the 21st century, Beth Driscoll explores how contemporary readers of Anglophone fiction interact with consumer publishing and the book industry. The product of 16 years of qualitative research into readers and reading culture, this book examines reading through three dimensions--aesthetic conduct, moral conduct, and self-care--to probe at how readers intertwine private and social behaviors, and both reinforce and oppose the structures of capitalism. Analyzing reading as a post-digital practice that is a synthesis of both print and digital modes and on-and offline behaviors, Driscoll presents a methodology for studying readers that connects sociology, book history, literary studies and actor-network theory. Also working to advance earlier studies that focused on readers' face-to-face practices, What Readers Do digs into book clubs, reader involvement with broadcast media, such as via Oprah's Book Club, and posting pictures of books on social media"--
"Nina E. Cerfolio masterfully explores the deeper spiritual and psychoanalytic understanding of the origins of human aggressive and destructive instincts which underlie mass shootings and terrorism. The author survived two terrorist attacks: developing breast cancer from being a first responder at 9/11, and being poisoned by an FSB agent while providing humanitarian aid in the Second Chechen War. Through a personal, scholarly investigation into her psyche, the author describes the spiritual awakening that was catalysed by these events and their traumatic impact, and examines how a world could create the firmament for the kinds of destructive aggression that are a daily occurrence. Featuring cutting-edge quantitative research and case material, which illustrates the prevalence of undiagnosed and untreated psychiatric illness among mass shooters and terrorists, this book encourages dialogue about the stigma of mental illness and challenges the perception of terrorists as monsters with no societal responsibility. Championing the forgotten collective humiliation of the marginalized-which in turn breeds terrorism-and documenting a new spiritual lens through which healing is possible, this book will be essential reading for mental health workers and anyone wishing to understand the traumatizing epoch in which we are living"--
In 'Farmed Out', Clare R. Brock uses U.S. agricultural policy as a vehicle to explain how the rapidly polarising political environment has altered the role of interest groups in Washington. Drawing on over two decades of lobbying behaviour data in the agricultural sector, Brock argues that polarisation has given interest groups greater influence over policy content, particularly among their ideological and partisan allies. Brock makes an important and original contribution to our understanding of how interest groups now operate within a context of heightened partisanship, lengthened time horizons, and declining institutional capacity.

"This book fosters critical reflection on Europe's place in a fast-changing global environment, covering the soft and hard facets of EU power along the spectrum of low politics-high politics. Taking an innovative case-study approach, it provides a wide understanding of European Studies and International Relations beyond classical power considerations and addresses the crossroads of the two disciplines. Fundamentally, it addresses the specificity of the EU as an actor in International Relations and shows that the EU holds power and influence - creating opportunities for peace-making and peacebuilding - in a way classical IR theory would suggest it should not. This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of European Studies, foreign policy analysis, International Relations, Security Studies, Political Science, History, Economics"--

"The Politics of Replacement explores current demographic conspiracy theories and their entanglement with different forms of racism and exclusionary politics such as sexism. The book focuses on population replacement conspiracy theories, i.e. those imaginaries and discourses centered on the idea that the national population is under threat of being overtaken or even wiped out by those considered as "alien" to the nation, and that this is the result of concerted efforts by "elites". Replacement conspiracy theories are on the rise again: from Eurabia fantasies to Renaud Camus' The Great Replacement, white supremacist discourses are thriving and increasingly broadcasting in mainstream venues. To account for their rise and spread, this edited volume brings together research on various dimensions and case-studies of population replacement conspiracy theories: based on different theoretical and methodological approaches, from different social scientific and humanities (inter)disciplinary backgrounds, working with different geographical case-studies (across Europe, North America, Southeast Asia, and Oceania), focusing on different time-periods (medieval archives, colonial archives, Nazi archives, post-colonial migrations, post-9/11), engaging with different forms of racialization and racisms (Islamophobia, antisemitism, racism against migrants and refugees), as well as with the entanglement of population replacement discourse with gendered violence. The book is organized into four sections: Genealogies of Replacement which explores some of the archives and the historical background of the current rise of demographic conspiracy theories; Technologies of Replacement which traces the (neoliberal) governmentalities in and through which replacement discourse operates; Islamophobia and Replacement which is dedicated to the particularly intense focus on the threat of Muslims in contemporary replacement conspiracy theories, and the Gendered Violence of Replacement Violence which explores the connection between replacement conspiracies, gender, and violence. This title is essential reading for scholars, journalists, and activists interested in the contemporary far right, conspiracy theories, and racisms"--
