Lawfare in Dispute Settlement
Authors: Cai Congyan 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
This chapter examines how China resolves international disputes from the unique perspective of lawfare. It reviews the concept of lawfare and then invents a normative framework for analyzing lawfare. Furthermore, it examines China’s changing policies and practice in international adjudication in the context of the rise of China and the judicialization of international law. Relying on the normative framework for analyzing lawfare, this chapter analyzes how China understands and uses international law to handle the China-Philippines SCS arbitration and the China-U.S. trade war, which are two crises that China and the entire international community face.
Conclusion
Authors: Cai Congyan 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
This chapter concludes this book by comparing American exceptionalism and Chinese exceptionalism in the context of the rise and fall of great powers. It agrees that all great powers, compared with other countries, are capable of advocating international law that advances their values and interests; in this sense, there is Chinese exceptionalism. More importantly, it suggests that different great powers have different exceptionalism, thereby bring about different implications on international legal order. This chapter does not purport to argue that people should have a rosy expectation for Chinese exceptionalism. In light of international context and China’s own particularities, however, it is more likely that Chinese exceptionalism can bring about new promise for international legal order, thereby balancing American exceptionalism. Therefore, Chinese exceptionalism merits serious consideration with sympathy.

Mandatory Reporting of Child Abuse and Neglect in Northern Canada
Authors: Tufford Lea 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Canada has a wide expanse of geographic terrain that encompasses urban, sub-urban, rural, and remote areas. The purpose of this chapter is to explore the unique challenges of mandatory reporters living and working in northern parts of provincial and territorial Canada. The chapter opens with a discussion of how the north has been defined historically and by Indigenous and settler perspectives. The chapter proceeds to examine the economic and social context of northern Canada before moving into a review of the challenges facing mandatory reporters. The chapter offers suggestions to mandatory reporters to balance their statutory responsibilities with the contextual reality of living in the community.
Protective Factors in Child Abuse and Neglect
Authors: Tufford Lea 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
This chapter examines the protective factors for child maltreatment from child, parent, family, and community aspects as there are individual differences in how children, parents, families, and communities respond to maltreatment. Protective factors have not been studied as extensively or rigorously as risk factors; however, they can promote health and well-being for maltreated children. These factors can also help to develop interventions to reduce impairment following exposure to child maltreatment. Resilience is another term for protective factors and focuses on examining children’s capacity to overcome or manage child abuse and neglect and achieve positive developmental outcomes. Despite the growing emphasis on resilience and protective factors, it must be understood that the existence of protective factors does not deny the negative consequences of child maltreatment or that maltreatment is wrong.
Reporting to Child Protection Services
Authors: Tufford Lea 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
This chapter discusses the steps mandatory reporters take when contacting Child Protection Services. Included in this chapter is information regarding to whom the report is made, the types of information that Child Protection Services may require, timelines for reporting, how to handle emergency situations, and organizational policies for reporting. The chapter also includes attention to reporting anonymously and challenges for mandatory reporters who attempt to function as child protection investigators. Objectives include understanding the role and function of Child Protection Services, exploring what information is required by Child Protection Services when making a report regarding a suspicion of child abuse and neglect, appreciating the rationale behind an anonymous report to Child Protection Services, identifying the benefits and challenges of reporting in the workplace, and summarizing how to protect client confidentiality when reporting.
Implications for Practice, Education, Policy, and Research
Authors: Tufford Lea 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
This chapter presents a discussion of practice, education, policy, and research implications pertaining to the mandatory reporting of child abuse and neglect. The first section centres on implications for practice in urban, suburban, rural, and remote environments and includes aspects such as working with colleagues, reporting in the workplace, and discussing the limits of confidentiality. What follows are implications for educators of future mandatory reporters. These implications explore educating students in the typology of child abuse and neglect, working in Northern Canada, and the importance of reflection. This chapter also includes suggestions for training that can be incorporated into the curriculum such as reflection, experiential exercises, case vignette, and simulation. The latter half of the chapter explores policy implications with specific attention to data collection and analysis of reported children and families in an effort to detect and respond to racial disparities in the child welfare system. At a national level, implications also include greater consistency in mandatory reporting legislation between provinces and territories. The chapter concludes with implications for research and focuses specifically on furthering our understanding of decision-making processes and disclosure within child sexual abuse.
Dave Brubeck's Time Out
Authors: Crist Stephen A. 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
This book is the first full-length study of Time Out by the Dave Brubeck Quartet, one of the most commercially successful albums in the history of jazz. Although the music of Time Out is exceedingly well known, and it remains a vital element of the American soundscape, it has received very little scholarly investigation until now. A central group of chapters examines the project’s seven cuts from several different points of view. The Quartet’s creative process is charted, from Brubeck’s earliest compositional sketches and drafts through multiple takes of the recording sessions in 1959. Other topics that receive attention include Brubeck’s ability to meld jazz with classical and world musics, the album’s recorded legacy, the role of lyrics in later recordings of this repertoire, and Brubeck’s contributions to metrical experimentation in jazz. These chapters are preceded by several others that trace the path leading to Time Out, from Brubeck’s student days and the Quartet’s rise to fame in the early 1950s. The book concludes with consideration of its resonances in four additional “time” albums in the 1960s. Informed by a wealth of documentary evidence from several major archives, this study reveals many aspects of Time Out that previously have been hidden from view. It also attempts to articulate a judicious view of this album’s role in jazz of the 1950s and 1960s.
Creative Process I
Authors: Crist Stephen A. 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
This chapter provides thumbnail sketches of each composition on Time Out, informed by manuscript sources. It also includes consideration of the disposition of solos, as well as discussion of the individual quartet members’ approaches to improvisation. In addition to its formal design and rhythmic profile, the architectural features of “Blue Rondo à la Turk” include its motivic content, palette of chord types, and tonal blueprint. “Everybody’s Jumpin’ ” also is an elegantly constructed composition. “Three to Get Ready” and “Kathy’s Waltz” belong together by virtue of their position side by side and because they both involve metrical experimentation with groups of three and four beats. “Strange Meadow Lark” is the longest and most accessible cut, but it is the only number on Time Out that is not a time experiment. Its four pages of pencil sketches provide a glimpse into Brubeck’s creative process. “Take Five” and “Pick Up Sticks” are examined as well.
Precursors to Kant
Authors: Baggett David , Walls Jerry L. 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Although Kant is often thought of as the first significant moral apologist, hints and intimations of the moral argument can be found before him. Plato’s conception of the Good has been thought congenial to a theistic conception, and Aristotle’s robust teleological conception of reality and sturdy commitment to final causes resounded with much of the later Judeo-Christian tradition. Augustine and Aquinas, in particular, were committed religious believers and thinkers who forged clear connections between their theism and key moral ideas found among such Greek thinkers as Plato and Aristotle. The contemporary Frenchmen René Descartes and Blaise Pascal both saw the relevance of the afterlife to fundamental questions of the moral quest. John Locke and Thomas Reid were both drawn to an early version of the “coincidence thesis,” according to which well-being and virtue go together. In all of these ways the stage was set for Kant’s landmark work.
An Edinburgher
Authors: Pringle-Pattison Andrew Seth 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Andrew Seth Pringle-Pattison touched a number of chords similar to those of other notable moral apologists, while distinguishing himself in a few salient respects. He lauded Kant on the issue of value, tracing that line of argument to focus on the principled reason to side with Kant over Hume on the problem of evil, while being critical of Kant in other respects, particularly in paying God’s immanence inadequate attention. He saw clearly various implications of the moral argument for the character of God, not just on the matter of God’s existence, and he intentionally launched criticisms at David Hume’s narrow empiricism. Pringle-Pattison’s idealism was broad, his epistemology expansive, his empiricism generous. He took religious experience seriously, refusing to privilege the perspective of external bystanders who lacked its rich phenomenology.
The End(s) of Judicial Process
Authors: Cohen Julie E. 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
This chapter explores changes in institutions and processes for dispute resolution. The gradual but accelerating movement to informational capitalism has confronted the judicial system with two large and interrelated problems: a proliferation of asserted harms that are intangible, collective, and highly informationalized; and an unmanageably large and ever-increasing number of claimants and interests. Emergent responses to those problems reflect the ascendancy of managerial ideologies about the nature of effective governance and the universe of feasible institutional strategies and practices. The managerial turn reinforces the traditional emphasis on concrete, individualized claims and frames dispute resolution problems as problems of production at scale to be addressed using techniques for input sorting and supply chain management. The judicial system—conceived throughout the industrial era as a monolithic dispenser of one-size-fits-all justice—is being reconceived and re-engineered along streamlined and diversified lines that are optimized to the interests of powerful information-economy actors.
Treatise on Awakening Mahāyāna Faith, in One Fascicle
Authors: Aśvaghoṣa Bodhisattva , Dharma Tripiṭaka 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Dasheng qixin lun 大乘起信論, or the Treatise on Awakening Mahāyāna Faith, has been one of the most important texts of East Asian Buddhism since it first appeared in sixth-century China. It outlines the initial steps a Mahāyāna Buddhist needs to take to reach enlightenment, beginning with the conviction that the Mahāyāna path is correct and worth pursuing. The Treatise addresses many of the doctrines central to various Buddhist teachings in China between the fifth and seventh centuries, attempting to reconcile seemingly contradictory ideas in Buddhist texts introduced from India. It provided a model for later schools to harmonize teachings and sustain the idea that, despite different approaches, there was only one doctrine, or Dharma. It profoundly shaped the doctrines and practices of the major schools of Chinese Buddhism: Chan, Tiantai, Huayan, and to a lesser extent Pure Land. It quickly became a shared resource for East Asian philosophers and students of Buddhist thought. Drawing on the historical and intellectual contexts of Treatise’s composition and paying sustained attention to its interpretation in early commentaries, this new annotated translation of the classic makes its ideas available to English readers like never before. The introduction orients readers to the main topics taken up in the Treatise and gives a comprehensive historical and intellectual grounding to the text. This volume marks a major advance in studies of the Treatise, bringing to light new interpretations and themes of the text.
The Pearl of Greatest Price
Authors: Givens Terryl , Hauglid Brian 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
This book narrates the history of Mormonism’s fourth volume of scripture, canonized in 1880. The book tracks this work’s predecessors, describes its several components, and assesses their theological significance in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Four principal parts are discussed, along with the controversies associated with each. The Book of Moses purports to be a Mosaic narrative missing from the biblical version of Moses’s purported writings. Little noticed in the scholarship on Mormonism, these chapters, produced only months after the Book of Mormon was published, actually contain almost all of Mormonism’s core doctrines as well as a virtual template for the project of Restoration Joseph Smith was to effect. Most controversial of all is the Book of Abraham, a production that arose out of a group of papyri Smith acquired, along with four mummies, in 1835. Most of the papyri disappeared in the great Chicago fire of 1871, but the surviving fragments come from Egyptian documents. That fact and the translations Smith attempted to make from the hieroglyphs on the surviving vignettes have convinced most Egyptologists that Smith’s work was fraudulent or inept. Mormon scholars, however, have developed several frameworks for vindicating its inspiration and his calling as a prophet. Chapter 3 attempts to make sense of Smith’s several, at times divergent, accounts of his First Vision, one of which is canonized as scripture. Chapter 4 assesses the creedal nature of Smith’s “Articles of Faith” in the context of his professed anticreedalism.
Dissolution
Authors: Laderman Charlie 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
The Armenian mandate debate is overlooked in studies of the fight over ratification of the Treaty of Versailles and membership of the League of Nations. This chapter emphasizes its significance to debates over US league membership and the United States’ postwar relationship with Britain. It explores the findings of the Harbord Commission, the investigative group that President Wilson sent to the Near East to ascertain whether the US should accept a mandate. It follows the American public debate over assuming the mandate in Congress and the national press, highlighting how it reveals the residual American mistrust of British imperialism, as well as the growing British disillusionment with American indecision over whether to make a commitment in the Near East. It explains how this aggravated tensions in Anglo-American relations, already evident in the clash between the two nations over access to the region’s oil resources. And it explores how the collapse of order in the Near East in 1922 led to Americans and Britons blaming each other for allowing the outbreak of renewed atrocities.
The Prostitute and the Cinematic Cabaret
Authors: Avila Jacqueline 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Chapter 1 focuses on the diegetic music performed in the prostitute melodrama and the cabaretera subgenre, concentrating on the genre’s associations with sexuality, modernity, and gender. Since the Porfiriato, the prostitute functioned as a deeply controversial figure and symbol of womanhood in popular culture, perceived at once as a social vice and as an exploited “necessary evil.” Santa (1931), the tragic story of a young country girl turned prostitute, became Mexico’s first sound film. Cinema presented her musically in two distinct ways: dance music exposed her as a sexual figure, while romantic and sentimental boleros painted her as a figure of tragedy. This chapter analyzes the function of music performances in two canonic prostitute melodramas, Santa and the 1950 cabaretera film Víctimas del pecado. Music signified the prostitute-protagonist’s split identity as a seductress and an empathetic figure, uncovering her problematic position that continued to be exploited on and off screen.
The Strains of the Revolution
Authors: Avila Jacqueline 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Chapter 5 focuses on the revolutionary melodrama and the malleable and contested role of the soldadera (female camp follower). Building from an extensive collection of photographs and newspapers, the revolutionary melodrama became a historically complicated film genre. While the films are dominated visually and narratively by men, the soldaderas are positioned in the background, yet music about them is foregrounded. One of the leading musical figures was “La Adelita,” a popular song that circulated during the Revolution. Culturally identified as a corrido, “La Adelita” became, for the film industry, the anthem of the Revolution, recycled in varying ways. Although the song is about a soldadera, a closer examination reveals its intimate tie to male revolutionaries rather than to women. This chapter analyzes the recycled use of songs referencing the soldaderas in three films: ¡Vámonos con Pancho Villa! (1935), La Adelita (1938), and Enamorada (1946).
Violent Rites Narrated
Authors: Olyan Saul M. 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Narratives of ritual violence set in Israel’s past are the focus of Chapter 2. Among the texts the author analyzes are the Golden Calf story in Exod 32, the narrative of Gideon’s destruction of his father’s Baal altar in Judg 6, the account of David’s psychological abuse of his Moabite prisoners in 2 Sam 8, and Nebuchadnezzar’s capture and brutalization of King Zedekiah of Judah in 2 Kgs 25. These narratives illustrate well the physical and psychological nature of punitive ritual violence and its varied targets (altars, bones, corpses, the bodies of living persons, iconic representations of deities). Narratives of violent rites are particularly striking for their rich representation of corpse abuse and their many depictions of the manipulation of conventional mourning rites by hostile agents seeking to harm others through ritual means.
Succession versus Transition
Authors: Kelly Michael J. , Moreno Erika , Witmer Richard C. 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Although the current regime has attempted to install a viable successor to the Castro brothers, the future of the island nation’s political structure can take a number of different paths. Since so much of U.S. approach toward diplomatic normalization with Cuba has hinged on regime change, the possibilities of political succession and transition are of paramount importance. This chapter addresses theories of political transition and succession to discuss the Cuban case. Using democratic transitions around the world, and among Cuba’s neighbors, as a point of departure this chapter addresses the key players and strategies that are most likely to be invoked over the next few decades both over the short, medium, and long term.
The Future of Cuba’s Non-Sugar Agricultural Sector
Authors: González-Corzo Mario A. , Nova-González Armando 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Despite a dramatic growth in agricultural trade between the United States and Cuba, trade between these two states has been “one-way trade,” primarily due to U.S. economic sanctions. A new scenario could potentially emerge as diplomatic and trade relations between the United States and Cuba improve and are eventually normalized. These changes could facilitate the expansion of U.S. agricultural and food exports to the island, as well as Cuban exports to the United States. This chapter examines the evolution of U.S. agricultural exports to Cuba since the approval of the Trade Sanctions Reform and Export Enhancement Act (TSRA) in 2000. The future prospects and policy implications for U.S.-Cuba agricultural trade are also discussed, taking into account the shift in U.S–Cuba relations initiated after December 17, 2014.
Reintegrating Cuba into the Global Economy
Authors: Backer Larry Catá 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
This chapter seeks to answer the question: What internal Cuban legal adjustments are necessary for Cuba to enter into a fully normalized relationship with the United States. and the rest of the world? The chapter first focuses on the adjustments Cuba might have to undertake if it is to embed itself within the structures of global trade and finance. Next, the chapter examines the extent to which Cuba is disposed to consider these possible reforms. Third, it examines what may be possible in the aftermath of the U.S. presidential election of 2016 (and its aftermath) and other global changes, including the emergence of a Chinese alternative to national embedding in global trade. These have considerably changed the terrain within with the consequences of U.S.-Cuba normalization can be considered. The examination considers the value of the European Union’s strategic initiative, the Political Dialogue and Cooperation Agreement (PDCA), as a viable basis for Cuban reintegration in the global economy.
Conclusion

Published: October 2019

Abstract
This chapter brings together the three dimensions examined by the volume’s contributors to address the full range of opportunities and challenges facing the island of Cuba. What is more, the authors address where opportunities and challenges may continue to exist for the United States and Cuba over the coming years. Given the cues provided by the Barack Obama regime in the last few years and the receptiveness of the island nation, the chapter suggests that there are multiple avenues along which both states could benefit. Likewise, the multidimensional nature of the puzzle at hand presents policymakers and scholars with a range of potential complications for both actors. This chapter provides a thorough discussion of these issues.
