The Political Is Personal
Authors: Josselson Ruthellen 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
The author tried to make sense of the Chinese political world from their point of view. Their narrative of Chinese history was unlike any she had ever encountered and this chapter details her effort to empathically understand how they viewed the world, in particular how they related to democratic ideas. Chinese fears of chaos and disunity, born of their history, are central to their political organization. As the author tried to find common philosophical ground with the Chinese students, they labelled her a Daoist. They understood her approach to therapy as counseling action through inaction and stressing values of compassion, moderation, and humility, all quite similar to Daoist teaching.
The Possible
Authors: Glăveanu Vlad P. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This book explores an eminently human phenomenon: our capacity to engage with the possible, to go beyond what is present, visible, or given in our existence. Possibility studies are an emerging field of research including topics as diverse as creativity, imagination, innovation, anticipation, counterfactual thinking, wondering, serendipity, the future, social change, hope, agency, and utopia, among others. The present contribution to this wide field is represented by a sociocultural and pragmatist account of the possible grounded in the notions of difference, position, perspective, dialogue, action, and culture. Put simply, this theory proposes that our explorations of the possible are enabled by our human capacity to relate to the world from more than one position and perspective and to understand that any perspective we hold is, at all times, one among many. Such an account transcends the long-standing dichotomy between the possible and the real, a sterile separation that ends up portraying possibility as separate from and even opposed to reality. On the contrary, the theory of the possible advanced in this book goes back to this notion’s etymological roots (the Latin possibilis—“that can be done,” from posse—“to be able”) and considers it as both a precondition and outcome of human action and interaction. Exploring the possible doesn’t take place outside of or in addition to our experience of the world; rather, it infiltrates it from the start, infuses it with new meanings, and ends up transforming it altogether. This book aims to offer conceptual, methodological, and practical tools for all those interested in studying human possibility and cultivating it in education, the workplace, everyday life, and society.
The Impossible
Authors: Glăveanu Vlad P. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This final chapter addresses the question of what might be the opposite of the possible. The impossible emerges as a likely candidate, but a closer inspection of this notion reveals the fact that we can and do develop perspectives on what we consider impossible. As such, a distinction needs to be made between what is impossible to think about (the unthinkable) and what is impossible to do (the undoable). The former, rather than the latter, marks the absolute absence of possibility. However, in line with the sociocultural theory put forward in the book, the chapter proposes the notion of the “non-possible” as a more appropriate counterpart of the possible and describes it as the imposition of singular, hegemonic perspectives that do not recognize difference or allow dialogues to emerge. Some final thoughts about how spaces of possibility can be cultivated are offered toward the end of the chapter.
Monitoring and Review to Assess Human Rights Implementation
Authors: Meier Benjamin Mason , Huffstetler Hanna , Bueno de Mesquita Judith 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter analyzes the fundamental importance of monitoring and review procedures to assess the implementation of human rights to advance public health. Recognizing monitoring and review as central to human rights accountability, the evolving functions of human rights monitoring highlight the range of national, regional, and international review mechanisms that provide oversight to support the realization of health-related human rights. While these mechanisms often do not have judicial powers—their recommendations are advisory rather than legally binding—the interpretive role entrusted to these review procedures has endowed their health-related recommendations with legitimacy in clarifying human rights treaty provisions and reviewing state efforts to meet treaty obligations. Assessing the implementation of international human rights law through national practice, monitoring institutions can facilitate human rights accountability for public health promotion and operationalize public health data to press governments to implement rights.
Human Subjects in Globalized Health Research
Authors: Constantin Andrés , Andorno Roberto 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
The clinical trials enterprise has expanded globally, involving research developed and owned by research institutions in wealthy countries but conducted with participants in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). These LMICs commonly provide ready access to large pools of subjects who have never received a particular drug and have—at least historically—a more permissive regulatory environment, raising important questions about the rights of vulnerable participants. The unequal power dynamic and imbalances between researchers and human subjects require specific norms and procedures to respect and protect the human rights of trial participants. Complementing bioethics norms, human rights law offers a lens for understanding participant and public health interests, recognizing the unequal dynamic between the researcher and the individual subject, and furthering the participants’ autonomy and decision-making power. Framing these issues in human rights obligations additionally offers new forms of governance and accountability mechanisms, raising new opportunities for legally enforceable claims.
Global Health and Human Rights in the Age of Populism
Authors: Gostin Lawrence O. , Constantin Andrés , Meier Benjamin Mason 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter examines the threat of populism to global health and human rights. Out of the ashes of World War II, institutions of global health and human rights have brought the world together in unprecedented cooperation, giving rise to the successes and opportunities detailed throughout this text. However, the current populist age threatens these successes and raises obstacles to future progress. In violent contrast with the shared goals of a globalizing world, populism seeks to retrench nations inward, with right-wing populist nationalism directly challenging institutions of global health, violating the rights of vulnerable populations, and spurring isolationism in international affairs. Such retrenchment could lead to a rejection of both global governance and human rights as a basis for global health. Yet, with hope for the future, there remains enduring strength in institutions of global health and human rights, with these institutional bulwarks capable of facing the challenges to come.
Introduction: A Romantic Remembers the French Revolution
Authors: Horn Jeff 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
The introduction considers how a former terrorist dealt with the legacy of the Revolution. A macabre incident relating to the remains of Charlotte Corday, who murdered the journalist Jean-Paul Marat, sets up a discussion of how Alexandre Rousselin wanted his participation in the Revolution remembered. He wanted a reputation not as a perpetrator of the Terror, but as someone who resisted it by trying to save his mentors Camille Desmoulins and Georges-Jacques Danton from the guillotine. The introduction also sketches Rousselin’s decades-long transition from republican to liberal, underscoring both how unusual his trajectory was and how his life exemplifies the broader themes of the Age of Revolution.
Reading Roman Pride
Authors: Baraz Yelena 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Pride is pervasive in Roman texts, as an emotion and a political and social concept implicated in ideas of power. This study examines the Roman discourse of pride from two distinct complementary perspectives. The first is based on scripts, mini-stories told to illustrate what pride is, how it arises and develops, and where it fits within the Roman emotional landscape. The second is semantic, and draws attention to differences between terms within the pride field. The peculiar feature of Roman pride that emerges is that it appears exclusively as a negative emotion, attributed externally and condemned, up to the Augustan period. This previously unnoticed lack of expression of positive pride in republican discourse is a result of the way the Roman republican elite articulates its values as anti-monarchical and is committed, within the governing class, to power-sharing and a kind of equality. The book explores this uniquely Roman articulation of pride attributed to people, places, and institutions and traces the partial rehabilitation of pride that begins in the texts of the Augustan poets at a time of great political change. Reading for pride produces innovative readings of texts that range from Plautus to Ausonius, with a major focus on Cicero, Livy, Vergil, and other Augustan poets.
Literary Style
Authors: Hogan Patrick Colm 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Style has often been understood both too broadly and too narrowly. In consequence, it has not defined a psychologically coherent area of study. In this chapter, Hogan first defines style so as to make possible a consistent and systematic theoretical account of the topic in relation to cognitive and affective science. This definition stresses that style varies by both scope and level—thus, the range of text or texts that may share a style (from a single passage to a historical period) and the components of a work that might involve a shared style (including story, narration, and verbalization). This chapter also addresses a second question—what purposes are served by style? There are three key functions of style: 1) the shaping of story understanding, 2) the communication of thematic concerns (i.e., concerns that extend beyond the work to values in the world), and 3) the arousal and modulation of emotion. Hogan illustrates the main points of this chapter by reference to literary works, prominently Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway.
Visual Narration
Authors: Hogan Patrick Colm 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Chapter 7 of Style in Narrative parallels chapter 3 in taking up the level of narrational style for the scope of a single work. However, in this case, the narration at issue is visual rather than verbal. In connection with this, the chapter considers an important argument in film studies about point-of-view (PoV) shots. For some time, film theorists took PoV shots to foster identification with the character whose point of view was depicted. Cognitive film theorists argued forcefully that identification was much more likely with the target of observation than with the perspective of the camera. Hogan’s contention here is that, though the cognitivists’ argument is largely correct, there can be some significant emotional effects of PoV editing, especially when it involves certain sorts of camera movement. These effects can be understood by reference to neuroscientific research on embodiment. Lu’s film presents a virtual catalog of the types and emotional functions of PoV shots, also illustrating many of their possible thematic consequences.
Stylistic Choices in Graphic Narrative
Authors: Hogan Patrick Colm 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
The final chapter of Style in Narrative turns to graphic fiction. Much of what one might say about style in graphic narrative is already covered by the treatments of literary and film style earlier in the book. However, some unique aspects of graphic narrative style remain. In this chapter, Hogan identifies some of the distinctive stylistic components of graphic narrative, illustrating and expanding these by reference to Art Spiegelman’s Maus. A key feature of this chapter is systematizing the analysis of graphic fiction by reference to the various stylistic levels (storyworld, story, plot, narration, and perceptual interface) and their functions (narrative exposition, communication of themes, and the cultivation of emotional effects). Lack of clarity about these distinctions has sometimes led to theoretical problems in the analyses of graphic fiction proposed by influential theorists of the medium.
Animals in a Landscape
Authors: Price Max D. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
The geography of the Near East is laid out with specific reference to the environments most favorable to Sus scrofa, or pigs and wild boar—woodlands, marshes, and human settlements. Wild boar are nonruminating artiodactyls that evolved in Southeast Asia 10–5.3 million years ago. The domestication of pigs from wild boar developed in China and the Near East over a period of 10,000 years. Domestication is a biological process driven by human culture. It occurs when humans take control of animals, perceiving them as property, and animals develop genetic adaptations in response to human management. Humans have devised a number of methods for keeping pigs, generally ranging from the extensive (allowing pigs to roam the countryside or forests) to intensive (confining pigs to pens). Because of their uniqueness as a livestock species, several “pig principles” have been identified and have guided the study of pigs in the Near East.
Emergent Democracy
Authors: Atkinson Lucy , Blick Andrew , Qvortrup Matt 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Chapter 1 considers how the idea of using referendums came onto the political agenda, and how on a number of occasions its imminent entry into use seemed plausible but did not take place. Important figures such as Albert Venn Dicey, Joseph Chamberlain, Arthur Balfour, Stanley Baldwin, Herbert Henry Asquith, and Winston Churchill played a part in events. Even without being held, the prospect of referendums had an impact on British political thought, words, and actions. There was also practical use of the device: at local level, and as part of external initiatives in which Britain played a part. The referendum could come to the forefront of political attention, recede and then return to it again. Though the extent of its prominence varied, once it appeared on the political landscape the referendum was, in some form, a continual presence.
Pressure and experimentation
Authors: Atkinson Lucy , Blick Andrew , Qvortrup Matt 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Chapter 2 covers 1945–1979, a period during which referendums progressed from being relatively neglected as a concept in Britain to actually being deployed. Between 1945 and the early 1970s, the idea of holding a major referendum was absent from the forefront of the UK political agenda. But as we will see, the proposition simmered and revived over time. Then between 1973 and 1979, four such votes took place: on the constitutional status of Northern Ireland (1973); on whether or not the UK should continue to participate in the European Community (or ‘Common Market’, in 1975); and on whether or not devolution should be implemented in Scotland and Wales (both 1979). The chapter considers why referendums occurred, and their implications for British politics and for the British constitution.
Positive Regulation in a Changing World
Authors: Baldwin Robert , Cave Martin 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
All regulators deal with issues that are constantly changing. Economic circumstances and technologies develop, and market structures alter as new products are launched, providers come and go, consumer preferences shift and so on. Positive regulators will be aware of such changes (anticipating them when feasible), will have information on the nature of such changes, and will respond dynamically to any such shifts. This chapter focuses on three central strategic issues in doing so: how best to respond to those new activities, technologies, and operators that do not sit easily within current regulatory frameworks; how to encourage healthy innovations by businesses; and how regulatory regimes can be adjusted in ways that impose least costs on firms, consumers, and others. Special attention is paid to the challenges that arise when regulation operates in a fragmented manner and across different levels of government.
Can Regulators Ensure Environmental Sustainability?
Authors: Baldwin Robert , Cave Martin 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Sustainability is an urgent concern that grows in importance as the earth’s fragility becomes increasingly apparent. Regulating in order to promote sustainability, however, brings a number of challenges. The first section of this chapter discusses those general challenges and the second section deals with a specific issue of central importance to sustainability—the control of carbon emissions. Central questions explored include: Is the idea of sustainability too elusive to allow its protection through regulation? How can regulators address the special challenges presented by future and contested harms? What strategies are available to rise to the challenges of regulating so as to foster sustainability? The discussion of responses to carbon and other greenhouse gases deals with the scale of the problems and the regulatory tools available to achieve the decarbonization targets now adopted by governments, including carbon taxes, tradable emissions permits, electric vehicles, and the replacement of gas in home heating.
The Extensions
Authors: Fabbrini Federico , Schmidt Rebecca 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter examines the extension of UK membership in the EU, discussing the law and politics of Article 50(3) TEU. It also assesses the governance implications that the postponement of Brexit had on the EU institutions, including the European Parliament (EP), the Council of the EU, and the European Commission. The UK government notified its intention to withdraw from the EU pursuant to Article 50 TEU on March 29, 2017. It was expected therefore that the UK would leave by March 29, 2019. However, in March of 2019, the UK government was eventually pushed to seek an extension under Article 50(3) TEU — a dynamic which was repeated twice more in April and October of 2019, ultimately leading to the withdrawal of the UK from the EU only on January 31, 2020. The chapter maps the legal regulation of the extension of the withdrawal period, distinguishing it from the similar but different mechanisms of revocation and transition. It also analyses the practical implementation of extension in the three subsequent decisions that the European Council adopted, in agreement with the UK, during 2019.
Human Rights Obligations of European Financial Assistance Mechanisms
Authors: Poulou Anastasia 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Having been affected by the European financial crisis that erupted in 2008, several EU Member States required financial assistance beyond that available in the financial markets. New financial assistance mechanisms, such as the EFSF and ESM, were created under international law and all financial assistance packages included the participation of the IMF. Despite their differences, these financial assistance schemes all combined supranational and international legal instruments and institutions. The hybrid nature of this European financial assistance raises the question of whether the actors involved in the award of the assistance are bound by EU and international human rights. Against this background, this chapter assesses financial assistance conditionality as applied by the different financial institutions from an EU and international human rights perspective, aiming to respond to the question whether European and international actors are bound by human rights when preparing financial assistance conditions.
Financial Risks of Climate Change
Authors: Sarra Janis 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Chapter 3 examines a number of financial risks to the viability of businesses due to climate change. It describes how the acute and chronic impacts discussed in Chapter 2 create new business risks, both physical risks and transition risks. It explores technology risk, market risk, and investment risk, risk to the company’s reputation for failure to adopt a climate plan, and policy risk. It examines the implications for investors if assets are stranded or reduced in value. It introduces concerns regarding planetary boundaries and what impacts may be irreversible once they are crossed. This chapter also examines how women are disproportionately affected by climate change impacts and why Indigenous peoples are deserving of special attention and respect in developing policy and business practices related to climate change.
Effective Climate Governance
Authors: Sarra Janis 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Having set out the legal duties of directors, officers, trustees, and investment managers in Chapter 4, this chapter discusses principles and frameworks that can inform effective climate governance. It offers advice on how to get started. It raises the notion of having climate competent directors and pension fiduciaries. Such fiduciaries may rely on engaging asset managers and engagement service firms, but they cannot delegate their fiduciary obligations. The chapter examines how boards can measure progress towards decarbonization. It examines the framework on climate governance proposed by the Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosure (‘TCFD’), including disclosure of governance of climate risk, climate strategy, risk management, and metrics and targets. It examines two emerging tools—climate scenario analysis and integrated assessment models.
Regulatory Oversight of Climate Governance of Companies and Institutional Investors
Authors: Sarra Janis 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Chapter 6 examines a number of regulatory challenges for climate change, particularly in terms of international regulatory oversight. It offers positive models from the European Union and explores why fairness and equity should inform regulatory choices. It discusses the emerging use of ‘green taxonomies’ as a tool to assure investors about where their capital is being directed and to encourage sustainable investing. The chapter engages in a discussion about carbon pricing as a regulatory tool, including low carbon benchmarks, carbon budgets, and statutory requirements for net zero carbon emissions. It explores the potential governance role of debt in the transition to net zero carbon and what the appropriate oversight role is for financial services supervisors. The chapter canvasses capacity building for women’s role in policy-making and examines the critically important issue of meaningful partnership with Indigenous communities.
The Maritime Yeats
Authors: Allen Nicholas 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
The imagery of water runs through all of Yeats’s writing, from the Sligo of his youth to the Byzantium of his old age, just as sea travel was a constant factor in his migrant life. From the beginning he understood the world in which he grew up as coastal and maritime, and Yeats’s writing about Ireland is watermarked with the diverse cultures that he experienced first-hand, in libraries and in archives, the past and the present joined in an archipelagic network of signs and associations that stretched from the west of Ireland to the Mediterranean, Africa, and Asia. This chapter describes the fluid declension of water in Yeats’s poetry and prose overall, with a focus on his early novel John Sherman.
