Tear Gas, Rubber Bullets and Democracy
Authors: Wasserman Herman 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of the literature on conflict, democratization, and the media and positions the book within key debates in the field. The chapter explains the book’s approach to the topic of media and conflict from the angle of democratization and social transition and provides an overview of the key arguments made throughout the book. The chapter also introduces key questions regarding the media’s ethical responsibilities in times of conflict and crisis. These questions are complicated by the rise of social media platforms and the widening of access to content production and curation by media users. The chapter argues that conflict provides a lens through which to examine the media’s relationship to publics, politics, and society in a globalized world.
Introduction
Authors: Friedline Terri 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
As the Introduction to Banking on a Revolution, this chapter summarizes recent technological advancements and their applications to banking and finance. Despite the potential for financial technologies, or “fintech,” to expand access to banking and finance, this chapter presents the challenges with fintech that can undermine a financial system revolution. For example, racism in the financial system is so common that it even has its own hashtag: #BankingWhileBlack. Without critical investigation of technological advancements and their potential for disparately impacting Black and Brown communities, fintech may further embed banks’ racialized exploitation, advance forms of financial surveillance, and confer advantages to whites.
Calibrating the Financial System
Authors: Friedline Terri 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter explores how the financial system was created and developed to recognize whiteness as a first credential of banking. Based on the theory of racial capitalism, this chapter reviews the origins of modern-day banks, redlining, and credit scoring to explain how the financial system confers advantages to whites. The financial system’s calibrations to whiteness have made it unable to render equal access to financial products and services. Whites have disproportionately higher bank account ownership rates, savings amounts, and accumulated wealth compared to their Black and Brown counterparts. Reports that decontextualize these differences from racial capitalism ignore the racist policies and practices responsible for these present-day renderings.
Theorizing Moves to Financial Innocence
Authors: Friedline Terri 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter explores popular, normative theories that attempt to explain access to banking and finance by focusing on individuals and families. Theories such as financial socialization, development, behavioral economics, and financial capability try to explain racialized differences in access to banking and finance while ignoring the financial system’s calibrations to whiteness. This ignorance makes opaque the forces that wield power and opportunity and reinforces tropes of bootstraps and individual responsibility. Programs and policies built on normative theoretical traditions will not lead to a financial system revolution; instead, they will continue to exacerbate racialized inequality.
Halfsight
Authors: Spencer Danielle 
Published: December 2020

AbstractHere the author continues her ophthalmic narrative, describing the surprising revelation of a long-standing, yet undetected, condition—a visual field “defect.” Discussing the narrative frames of diagnosis, questions of medical error and uncertainty are addressed. The particular challenges of accounting for a retrospective revelation are explored in detail, invoking themes of narratology, communicability, intelligibility, metaphor, and semiotics. In addition, the ways in which metagnosis invokes various stances toward the relationship between narrative and identity are investigated. This chapter offers an introduction to key concepts in illness narratives, narratology, semiotics, and narrative identity theory, discussed in relation to the author’s experience.
Blindsight
Authors: Spencer Danielle 
Published: December 2020

AbstractIn situating the author’s retrospective visual field “defect” revelation, this chapter begins with the neurological condition of anosognosia—being unaware of a disease—exploring its manifestations and philosophical implications. In addition, another means of understanding the author’s visual field “defect” emerges in the figure of “blindsight,” or unconscious vision. Tracing the relationship between vision and thought in the Western philosophical tradition as well as the philosophical role of blindsight, the chapter then proposes that blindsight models a particular epistemic stance encompassing the known and unknown, one which will prove useful in addressing the phenomenon of metagnosis and beyond.
Robin—My Gateway, Guide, Ears, and Voice in China
Authors: Josselson Ruthellen 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter is an intense portrait of the Chinese interpreter with some reflections on the slipperiness of language between the two cultures. The close relationship that developed between the author and the interpreter also revealed more nuanced aspects of cultural difference that could be narrated from different perspectives. When the interpreter came to a conference in the United States, subtle cultural differences became apparent in what she viewed as unusual. From her perspective, Americans seemed uncurious about people from China. In Mandarin, there is no word for “the Other.” China is largely an ethnically homogenous society and Western approaches to diversity are hard to understand.
Chinese Psychotherapy Patients
Authors: Josselson Ruthellen 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter discusses Chinese therapy patients in an effort to assess the differences between the clinical challenges that Western and Eastern therapists might encounter. Anxiety, depression, and interpersonal conflict lead people to seek therapy, similar to the West, but these have different presentations and contexts. Chinese families have different organization and dynamics compared to Western families. Emotion is expressed quite differently than in the West and conflict is suppressed, often at great emotional cost. Frequently, people feared that bringing up any dissatisfaction would lead to rupture in the family or that conflict would cause a spouse to leave. Three generational families are common and it is also not unusual for people to be raised by people other than their parents. Filial devotion is central in people’s psychology.
The Dilemmas of Training, Trauma, and Culture
Authors: Josselson Ruthellen 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Looking closely at the dynamics of the process groups, many aspects of Chinese culture are revealed: the focus on privilege within systems, the ubiquity of intergenerational trauma in individuals, the denial of historical trauma. These are detailed stories that do not lend themselves well to being abstracted, but there are stories of abusive childhoods, forced abortion, and the great need for maternal love. As we began to teach supervision, we struggled with the tension between competition and collaboration in co-therapy teams. It was hard initially for them to work together when each of the co-therapists wanted to be the best.
The Power of Pigs
Authors: Price Max D. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This introductory chapter outlines the themes of the book. Pigs have long played important roles in the cultures of the Near East, especially in times of ethnoreligious conflict. The mass cull in 2009 of swine owned by the Zabaleen in Cairo is one of the most recent examples. Examining pigs provides a lens into the past, a unique means of studying Near Eastern cultures. Whereas previous scholarship has been content to study the pig in specific cultural contexts, often attempting to explain its history with reference to a single cultural or environmental process, this book covers the history of the pig from before its domestication to the present day. By adopting this long-term, wide-reaching perspective, I advance the argument that pigs, and the taboos placed upon them, can be understood only as evolving cultural elements.
Clash of Cultures in the Classical Period
Authors: Price Max D. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
The influence of Greek and Roman culture on the Near East, especially after Alexander’s conquests, brought a revival of pig husbandry, which had largely been lost in the Iron Age. Pigs and pork played fundamental roles in Greek and Roman culture—in the economy, in the diet, and in ritual. Greek and, especially, Roman writers celebrated pigs and pork. Zooarchaeological data indicate a surge in pig production in Near Eastern cities. But Greco-Roman love of pigs and pork ran into conflict with Jewish populations in the Levant. The ingestion of pork became entangled in the political and ethnic conflicts playing out between Jews and their Greek and Roman imperial masters. It became a metonym for submission; its avoidance a symbol of resistance. Pork avoidance was thus elevated from one of many taboos codified in Leviticus to a practice definitive of Jewish identity. Pork consumption also became a way for Christians to reject Judaism.
Introduction
Authors: Fabbrini Federico 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This introductory chapter provides an overview of the Withdrawal Agreement of the United Kingdom (UK) from the European Union (EU). The Withdrawal Agreement, adopted on the basis of Article 50 Treaty on European Union (TEU), spells out the terms and conditions of the UK departure from the EU, including ground-breaking solutions to deal with the thorniest issues which emerged in the context of the withdrawal negotiations. Admittedly, the Withdrawal Agreement is only a part of the Brexit deal. The Agreement, in fact, is accompanied by a connected political declaration, which outlines the framework of future EU–UK relations. The chapter then offers a chronological summary of the process that led to the adoption of the Withdrawal Agreement, describing the crucial stages in the Brexit process — from the negotiations to the conclusion of a draft agreement and its rejection, to the extension and the participation of the UK to European Parliament (EP) elections, to the change of UK government and the ensuing constitutional crisis, to the new negotiations with the conclusion of a revised agreement, new extension, and new UK elections eventually leading to the departure of the UK from the EU.
The Negotiations
Authors: Jones Emily 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter analyses the politics of the Brexit negotiations and shows how the UK government’s failure to manage the fraught domestic politics posed a major constraint and challenge to the negotiations. Under UK Prime Minister Theresa May, the UK government struggled to put forward coherent negotiating proposals, hamstrung by deep splits within the UK Cabinet and the Conservative Party. After two years of negotiations, in November of 2018, the UK and EU reached an agreement, only to see it resoundingly rejected by UK Parliament three times. The UK was then plunged into a constitutional crisis, and Prime Minister May stepped down. Boris Johnson, May’s successor, took a more hard-line approach. He took extreme measures, including suspending the UK Parliament, a move that was ruled illegal by the UK Supreme Court. Activist backbench MPs and a series of court cases ruled out a no-deal exit and helped generate an agreement between the Johnson government and the EU, but it was not ratified until after a snap general election in December of 2019 delivered a resounding victory for the Conservatives. The UK duly left the EU on January 31, 2020, with a Withdrawal Agreement in place.
The Future of the United Kingdom after Brexit
Authors: Douglas-Scott Sionaidh 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter evaluates how Brexit and the withdrawal negotiations impacted the UK system of devolved governance. The focus is on devolution because the voices of the three devolved nations — Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland — have been too much ignored in Brexit manoeuvres, especially given Scotland and Northern Ireland voted in the Referendum to remain in the EU. The chapter then details the key points of the EU Withdrawal Act 2018 (EUWA) and EU Withdrawal Agreement Act 2020 (WAA), and looks at how Brexit will impact devolution. It also discusses the status of the UK’s existing territorial constitution. Finally, the chapter describes a possible federal future for the UK, and considers scenarios of regional independence.
Sigonio in Anglo-American Projects to Reform the Imperial Constitution, 1751–1777
Authors: Somos Mark 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter explores Carlo Sigonio’s long-term impact by zooming in on the nascent United States of America. It shows that Sigonio was seen as a leading comparative constitutional historian and one of the most cited authorities that would-be reformers turned to in the intense debate on the reform of the British imperial constitution in the second half of the eighteenth century. His analyses of the Roman Empire yielded timeless lessons for metropolitan and colonial administrators alike. Most importantly, Sigonio structured his studies of Roman, Athenian, Hebrew, and medieval Italian laws and customs in a way that revealed these complex historical states’ constitutional essence, making comparative analysis possible. This chapter shows why American lawyers, British politicians, and merchants and soldiers with a true British–American identity, explicitly drew on Sigonio’s analysis of Roman colonization in several reform plans for the British Empire, with particular attention to the American colonies.
Upholding the Welfare State During the Financial Crisis
Authors: Dima Elena-Luminița 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
In Romania, the social security benefits were influenced by the global economic crisis that occurred in 2008. This chapter presents the background of the reforms implemented in Romania in the context of the global crisis and reveals the reasons for their introduction, the specific legislative measures adopted, the reaction of the Romanian Constitutional Court to the measures, as well as the influence of the Court’s decisions on the implementation of the measures. Overall, the decisions of the Constitutional Court were observed by all the stakeholders and national institutions. Also regular courts, when deciding on cases referring to pension rights, were in line with the rules of interpretation adopted by the Constitutional Court. Hence, the Romanian constitutional doctrine was not significantly altered during the financial crisis and national constitutional law was able to restrict the pressure put on the national welfare state.
Sustainable Finance and the Move to a Circular Economy
Authors: Sarra Janis 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Ultimately, our goal is to move beyond ideas, beyond action to net zero and then to ‘climate positive’; to create a circular economy that relies on renewable energy, designs waste out of the system as much as possible, conserves and enhances biodiversity, and frames economic activity so that it is fair and equitable, and is good for the planet and society. This chapter is a forward-looking vision for sustainable finance to support these goals. It discusses scaling-up of resources to decarbonize and links sustainable finance with sustainable development. It explores the European Commission’s vision for a sustainable and climate neutral economy. It looks at Indigenous partnerships in green finance and green energy and the potential contributions of conservation finance. The chapter then turns to examples of sustainable finance in a number of sectors.
Conclusion
Authors: Sarra Janis 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Chapter 10 concludes with some final observations on charting a path forward from ideas to action in the transition to net zero carbon emissions. It draws attention once again to the need for a just and equitable transition to a sustainable economy. It briefly reflects on the coronavirus pandemic lockdown that has commenced. The Appendix offers a governance checklist for directors, officers, pension fiduciaries, and asset managers as they begin to embed effective climate governance in their management and oversight. The Appendix can also be used by employees, investors, community members, and regulators to ask questions that help hold companies and institutional investors accountable for their actions to combat climate change and move towards a sustainable planet.
Navigating the New Retail Landscape
Authors: Treadgold Alan , Reynolds Jonathan 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
The retail industry globally is in an era of profound, perhaps unprecedented, change, change which has been further accelerated for many by the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic and its attendant health and economic crises. This book is intended to serve as a wide-ranging, robust, practical guide to leaders of enterprises tasked with understanding and delivering success in the new landscape of retailing. Part 1 describes the major directions and drivers of change that define the new global landscape of retailing. Accelerating changes in technology, the rise to prominence globally of internet enabled shoppers and the rapid emergence of entirely new retail enterprises and business models are combining to re-shape the very fundamentals of the retail industry. The new landscape of retailing is unforgiving: success can be achieved more quickly than ever before but failure is equally rapid. Opportunities in the new landscape of retailing are profound, but so too are the challenges. Part 2 discusses the structures, skills and capabilities that retail enterprises will need to be successful in this new landscape and the skills and capabilities required of the leaders of retail enterprises. More than 25 detailed case studies of innovative, successful enterprises internationally and more than one hundred smaller examples, all updated and many new since the first edition, are used to illustrate the themes discussed. Frameworks are presented to provide practical guidance for enterprise leaders to understand and contextualize the nature of change re-shaping retail landscapes globally. Clear guidance is given of the capabilities, skills and perspectives needed at both an enterprise and personal leadership level to deliver success in the new landscape of retailing.
Strikes, Ballots, Law, and Democracy
Authors: Creighton Breen , Denvir Catrina , Johnstone Richard , McCrystal Shae , Orchiston Alice 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter examines the nature and purposes of strike action. It suggests that strikes are a means of protecting and promoting the social and economic interests of workers—especially in the context of collective bargaining. It provides an historical outline of the relationship between strikes and the law by tracing the transition from repression of union organization, and more specifically the capacity to take strike action, through toleration to recognition, and recently back to reluctant toleration. The chapter also notes that the capacity to take strike action is almost always limited in one or more ways, including restrictions on the organizations and/or individuals that can lawfully take strike action, the forms of strike action that can legitimately be taken, the matters in relation to which strike action may be taken, and the procedural requirements for lawful strike action. A very common procedural constraint is a requirement that proposed strike action be authorized by a pre-strike ballot. Chapter 1 introduces the usual ostensible rationale for pre-strike ballots—the need to protect the democratic rights of individuals: the so-called ‘democratic imperative’. It also uses two case studies to introduce important theoretical and practical issues raised by the use of pre-strike ballots.
The Right to Strike and Pre-Strike Ballot Requirements in International Law
Authors: Creighton Breen , Denvir Catrina , Johnstone Richard , McCrystal Shae , Orchiston Alice 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
The book is underpinned by the assumption that the right to strike to promote or to protect the individual’s economic and social interests is a universally recognized human right, either standing on its own, or as part of the principle of freedom of association. This is reflected in the fact that the right to strike is, directly or indirectly, afforded protection by major international standard-setting instruments, and in the constitutions of many nation states. This chapter outlines the international recognition of the right to strike, with particular reference to the jurisprudence of the supervisory bodies of the International Labour Organisation. This includes consideration of the extent to which access to the right to strike can properly be conditioned by pre-requisites such as pre-strike ballot requirements.
