Perspectival Worlds
Authors: Glăveanu Vlad P. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter argues that worlds of difference and culture are, by necessity, perspectival. This defining feature is supported by the polysemic uses of language and the open-ended nature of narratives. It is enhanced by the existence of various groups, communities, and relations between them, leading to a plurality of social representations. It is reflected in the state of cognitive polyphasia and the reflective dialogues we establish between different, sometimes even opposing, perspectives. Finally, it is supported by forms of engagement with our material environment that alternate between the use of things, objects, and artifacts. In all these instances, the world is discovered as perspectival and experienced as such. At the same time, perspectival worlds should not be taken for granted. There are active forces within them, fueled by power and inequalities within society, that make certain perspectives disappear and others gain a hegemonic position as a “view from nowhere.”
Dialogue
Authors: Glăveanu Vlad P. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter examines the kinds of perspectival dialogue that often emerge out of meta-positions. Meta-positions make us sensitive to the fact that there are more positions and perspectives to consider in any given situation, and perspectival dialogues help us connect positions and their perspectives in a productive manner. The notion of dialogue is useful to conceptualize the ways in which perspectives relate to each other as perspectives rather than absolute truths. Being in dialogue is marked by both addressivity and emergence, characterized by a dynamic balance between immersion and detachment and expressed in the two interrelated movements of integrating and differentiating perspectives. These characteristics, on the one hand, point us to the sociocultural origin of perspectival dialogues and, on the other, reinforce the idea that there is always a surplus to be gained when engaging in perspectival dialogues.
Pedagogies of the Possible
Authors: Glăveanu Vlad P. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter examines how the theory of the possible plays out in education in the form of constructing and enacting what the author calls “pedagogies of the possible.” This kind of pedagogy is fundamentally oriented toward the development of new possibilities through the cultivation of open, reflective, and critical forms of engagement with others and their different perspectives. There are both societal and ethical underpinnings supporting this type of engagement, as reflected in acts of resistance and emancipation. It is an education dedicated to making us sensitive to marginal groups and marginal positions within society and their struggle for recognition. Pedagogies of the possible thrive particularly on dialogues with these other positions and perspectives. It is within this space of dialogue and reflexivity that education gains its transformative power and society can be reimagined and recreated.
Advancing Human Rights through Global Health Governance
Authors: Meier Benjamin Mason , Cinà Margherita Marianna , Gostin Lawrence O. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter addresses the international organizations that have accepted human rights obligations as a way of framing their global health policies, programs, and practices. International organizations within the United Nations (UN) system are engaged in implementing human rights—in both the mission they carry out and the way in which they carry out that mission. The UN has called on all programs, funds, and specialized agencies to mainstream human rights across their efforts, and various agencies have taken up this call to advance human rights for public health – beginning with the evolving role of the World Health Organization and expanding to encompass a sweeping set of international organizations that address health determinants. While there remain obstacles to the systematic operationalization of human rights across the global health governance landscape, international organizations are seeking to integrate their efforts to mainstream human rights in global health.
Equity in Health
Authors: McGovern Terry , Ahmed Aziza 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter examines the evolution of international human rights standards for health equity, focusing on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). A rich history of women’s rights advocacy informs the international commitments that define SRHR. Over time, sexual and reproductive health rights have been incorporated into development agendas, clarified by treaty bodies, expanded to include sexual minorities, and implemented (or not) at the national level. With the progressive trajectory of SRHR increasingly uncertain, there are continuing challenges to the realization of SRHR, including the continuing criminalization of those who seek out sexual and reproductive health services, the rise of right-wing populism in direct opposition to feminist advancements, and the pushback against lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) rights. Given rising opposition to sexual rights, safe abortion, and sexuality education, creative stealth advocacy will be required to advance SRHR.
Rehabilitation: Political, Literary, and Social, 1795–1815
Authors: Horn Jeff 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Rousselin managed to return to public service, but he continued to face recriminations for his participation in revolutionary violence. He became a confidential secretary for General Lazare Hoche, then Paul Barras, and finally Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte when he became minister of war. Forced out by Napoleon’s rise to power, Rousselin devoted himself to writing biographies of Republican generals and to finding new friends Benjamin Constant and Germaine de Staël. He also had a relationship with Josephine Beauharnais, which angered Napoleon, who tried to send him to Egypt as a diplomat. He went into hiding, had a child, and got married to a cousin of Barras, all while serving as a police spy. In 1813 he was adopted by his mother’s second husband and when he died, became comte de Saint-Albin. Surprisingly, he rallied to Bonaparte during the Hundred Days serving as secretary-general under Lazare Carnot at the Interior Ministry.
Introduction
Authors: Baraz Yelena 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Beginning with a text that contains many typical features of Roman pride discourse, the Introduction places the investigation of Roman pride in the broader context of approaches to ancient emotions on the one hand and contemporary studies of pride by psychologists on the other. It identifies its externally conceived and predominantly negative articulation (exclusive in republican texts) as unique and proposes the twofold method of investigation based on scripts, short narratives that present the emotion as a process and allow for the most important elements to be identified on the one hand and a lexical approach that traces differences between terms and their individual development on the other.
Capua
Authors: Baraz Yelena 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter considers how the pride script functions when the quality is attributed to a place. It investigates Roman attitudes to the city of Capua, which remained the proud place par excellence in Roman discourse from its star turn as a defector in the Second Punic War to late antiquity. The chapter begins with the distillation of the stereotypical picture of Capua in a poem of the fourth-century author Ausonius. Reading Capuan pride in Cicero, Livy, Silius Italicus, and Ausonius, the author shows how Roman ideas about pride interact with stereotypes about climate and ethnic character, as well as imperialist ideology, to create a remarkably durable portrait of a proud city that far outlasts its immediate historical motivation.
Vergil’s Aeneid, Pride Unsettled
Authors: Baraz Yelena 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter argues that the Aeneid unsettles the stable negative pride script by repeatedly staging confrontations between two different subtypes of pride. A narrative in which pride is ascribed to both victors and victims invites readers to take sides, creating an environment in which it is possible to see one of the two as positive: a situation familiar from both the ancient and the modern reception of the poem. The chapter presents a comprehensive reading of the poem through the prism of pride, discussing many well-known and controversial episodes, such as the death of Priam, the encounter of Dido and Aeneas, and the final duel between Aeneas and Turnus, as well as Anchises’ injunction to Aeneas to “battle the proud” and the depiction of Augustus’ doorposts as “proud.”
From Paleolithic Wild Boar to Neolithic Pigs
Authors: Price Max D. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Wild boar are dangerous animals that Paleolithic peoples hunted infrequently for the first million years of human-suid contact. Projectile weapons, nets, and the domestication of dogs allowed Natufian hunter-gatherers (12,500–9700 BC) to find in wild boar a reliable source of food. By the Pre-Pottery Neolithic A (9700–8500 BC), human populations had developed close relationships with local wild boar. Intensive hunting or perhaps game management took place at Hallan Çemi in Anatolia, and the introduction of wild boar to Cyprus by at latest 9400 BC indicates the willingness of humans to capture and transport wild boar. At the same time, the presence of sedentary villages and the waste they produced likely attracted wild boar to human habitats. These early relationships between people and suids—game management and commensalism—evolved over the course of the Pre-Pottery Neolithic into full-fledged animal husbandry that, by around 7500 BC, had selected for domestic pigs.
Islam and the Modern Period
Authors: Price Max D. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
The development and rapid spread of Islam in the 7th century AD laid the groundwork for the modern Near East. Islam’s early thinkers attempted to position their new religion as superior by threading the needle between Christianity and Judaism. Islam adopted a much more restricted version of the food taboos laid out in the Torah. The taboo on pork was one of the few the Quran, and it ultimately spelled the end of pig husbandry in much of the Near East. Nevertheless, pig husbandry and pork consumption have continued to this day, especially among Christian communities. The taboo also became increasingly tied to ethnoreligious intolerance and acts of hatred in the medieval and modern periods. The weaponization of pork, which can be traced at its earliest to the Classical period, became increasingly prevalent, as did the pejorative association of Christians with swine.
The Complexity of Swine
Authors: Price Max D. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
The story of swine in the Near East reveals a complex evolution of one cultural element. Several processes stand out—the domestication of pigs from wild boar in the Pre-Pottery Neolithic and their occasionally haphazard integration into agricultural systems; the evolving ritual roles of pigs, especially during the Bronze Age; the economic roles that pigs played (or did not play) in state-level societies; and, ultimately, the formation and evolution of the pig taboo. The long and complex evolution of the pig taboo in Judaism and Islam has created a tradition that has, in some ways, developed a life of its own, trapping the people of the Near East and around the globe into a peculiar relationship with swine.
Religion's Sudden Decline
Authors: Inglehart Ronald F. 
Published: December 2020

AbstractSecularization has accelerated. From 1981 to 2007, most countries became more religious, but from 2007 to 2020, the overwhelming majority became less religious. For centuries, all major religions encouraged norms that limit women to producing as many children as possible and discourage any sexual behavior not linked with reproduction. These norms were needed when facing high infant mortality and low life expectancy but require suppressing strong drives and are rapidly eroding. These norms are so strongly linked with religion that abandoning them undermines religiosity. Religion became pervasive because it was conducive to survival, encouraged sharing when there was no social security system, and is conducive to mental health and coping with insecure conditions. People need coherent belief systems, but religion is declining. What comes next? The Nordic countries have consistently been at the cutting edge of cultural change. Protestantism left an enduring imprint, but 20th-century welfare added universal health coverage; high levels of state support for education, welfare spending, child care, and pensions; and an ethos of social solidarity. These countries are also characterized by rapidly declining religiosity. Does this portend corruption and nihilism? Apparently not. These countries lead the world on numerous indicators of a well-functioning society, including economic equality, gender equality, low homicide rates, subjective well-being, environmental protection, and democracy. They have become less religious, but their people have high levels of interpersonal trust, tolerance, honesty, social solidarity, and commitment to democratic norms. The decline of religiosity has far-reaching implications. This book explores what comes next.
Evolutionary Modernization Theory and Secularization
Authors: Inglehart Ronald F. 
Published: December 2020

AbstractThe degree to which people experience threats to their survival shapes their basic values. Throughout history, most people lived just above the starvation level, but in the years after World War II, unprecedented prosperity and social welfare safety nets launched an intergenerational shift from survival to self-expression values. When the first postwar birth cohort reached adulthood in the 1960s, student protests erupted, inaugurating pervasive cultural changes. Historically, a coherent set of pro-fertility norms evolved that limits women to producing as many children as possible and that stigmatizes any other form of sexual behavior not linked with reproduction. Because pro-fertility norms require people to repress strong drives, there is a built-in tension between them and their polar opposite, individual-choice norms. Throughout history, societies that lacked pro-fertility norms tended to die out, but in recent decades, a growing number of societies have attained high existential security, long life expectancy, and low infant mortality, opening the way for a shift from pro-fertility norms to individual-choice norms.
What's causing it? The rise of Individual-choice norms
Authors: Inglehart Ronald F. 
Published: December 2020

AbstractMany factors are contributing to secularization, including reactions against fundamentalists’ unconditional support for authoritarian politicians, against the Roman Catholic Church’s long history of covering up child abuse, and against terrorism by religious extremists. But one generally overlooked reason for accelerating secularization is the decline of pro-fertility norms. All major religions encourage these norms, which help societies replace their populations when facing high infant mortality and low life expectancy. These norms require people to suppress strong drives, but with low infant mortality and high life expectancy they are no longer are needed. After an intergenerational time lag, pro-fertility norms are giving way to individual-choice norms supporting gender equality and tolerance of divorce, abortion, and homosexuality. Pro-fertility norms are so strongly linked with traditional religious worldviews that abandoning them undermines religiosity.
‘On the Power of Sound’
Authors: Robinson Peter 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Published as ‘Stanzas on the Power of Sound’ in Yarrow Revisited and Other Poems (1835), this later poem (subsequently called ‘On the Power of Sound’) evolved from lines composed not later than March 1828 and was revised for publication through March 1835. Reflections on the compositional processes of ‘On the Power of Sound’ draw attention to the consequences of underlying divisions in Wordsworth’s theories of poetic subjects and their treatment. His use here of flexibly rhymed variable cadences in an English Pindaric style and their capacity simultaneously to look backward and forward are considered in the light of its effort to ‘invest the material Universe’ with spirituality and ‘to exhibit its most ordinary appearances’ under a ‘moral relation’. Yet the equivocal power of the sound of the poem underlines its fundamental disjunctions between the ‘material […] ordinary’ and the spirituality of that ‘moral relation’. If this disjunction powers the poem’s laboriously lofty voice, providing its appeal to some Victorian readers, it simultaneously reveals a loss of confidence in the immanence of that relation.
Christina Rossetti and the Triumph of Revision
Authors: Hassett Constance W. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
Christina Rossetti is well known for subjecting her poems to what Jerome McGann calls ‘severe prunings’, the most conspicuous of her strategies for achieving her characteristically spare lyricism. She isolates the two stanzas of ‘Bitter for Sweet’ from a longer draft; she retrieves the two stanzas of ‘The Bourne’ from a shapeless 12-stanza poem. The extant Rossetti Notebooks, now at the Bodleian and the British Libraries, reveal intensely careful work—an adroit verbal change here, a rhythmic adjustment there—on the poems that eventually appear in Goblin Market (1862) and The Prince’s Progress (1866). For Rossetti, a manuscript ‘fair copy’ seldom remains pristine. The revisions to a poem such as ‘My Dream’ show that the deft revision that produces Rossettian understatement in her poems also produces their fine exuberance.
Hopkins and the Lost Beloved
Authors: Phillips Catherine 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter examines the development of two poems by Gerard Manley Hopkins: the first, ‘A Voice from the World’, was written as a response to Christina Rossetti’s ‘The Convent Threshold’ and Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s ‘The Blessed Damozel’. The extant fragments of Hopkins’s poem suggest his undergraduate poetic ambition to rival the Rossettis in tackling metrical and emotional complexities. The second poem examined is ‘Binsey Poplars’, which belongs to 1879, when Hopkins was a parish priest in Oxford. In it Hopkins struggles to express deep feelings about the destruction of nature, absorbing ideas from poems written by his father, R. W. Dixon, and John Clare. ‘Binsey Poplars’ is also of interest at present because a new holograph, with unique readings, has recently been purchased at auction by the Bodleian. In examining both poems, the chapter explores the concatenation of sources of inspiration and something of Hopkins’s development in handling emotional subjects.
Controlling Traditional Network Monopolies
Authors: Baldwin Robert , Cave Martin 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter focuses on the century-old regulatory challenge that is posed by a key feature of traditional utility sectors such as energy, fixed telephony, and water: their reliance on a physical (not a digital) local distribution network for delivering the relevant service to millions of dwellings and business premises, and the incorporation of bottlenecks within such networks. Key issues explored include the scope of regulation within a network utility, how network prices are regulated, minimizing network costs and regulating outputs more broadly, how to set the rate of return on capital allowed to the network, and the future of network regulation.
Regulating for Future Needs
Authors: Baldwin Robert , Cave Martin 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter summarizes the book’s argument for taking a positive approach to regulation and for seeing regulation as part of the core process for furthering both business success and social welfare. If regulation is to develop in a way that meets future needs, as well as current ones, it will be necessary to develop the key attributes of positive regulation. This involves a predisposition to maximize the degree to which objectives (substantive and procedural) can be achieved by harnessing corporate capacities to behave well. Such a minimalist approach to ‘taming the corporation’ implies that enabling and flexible modes of influence should be the first choices of regulators, rather than restrictive control mechanisms. Realism, however, demands that regulators take on board the inclinations and capacities of regulated firms to behave well and that they act firmly with corporations and individuals who are not likely to deliver desired outcomes without strong forms of external stimulation.
The Negotiations on the Future Trade Relations
Authors: Mariani Paola , Sacerdoti Giorgio 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter examines the negotiations on the future relations between the UK and the EU. The UK left the EU on the basis of a Withdrawal Agreement, which includes an obligation to negotiate in good faith the future relationship between the parties. The framework for future cooperation is outlined in a non-binding Political Declaration attached to the Withdrawal Agreement. This foresees the conclusion after the end of the transition period of a free trade agreement. However, the parties’ respective negotiating directives and guidelines, made public in February of 2020, show a remarkable gap in objectives and features of the future agreement, to the point that a failure of the negotiations and a no-deal Brexit is still a possibility. The chapter then considers the provisions of the Withdrawal Agreement impacting the future EU–UK relations, namely Article 184 and the Protocol on Northern Ireland that already foresees rules applying between the parties post-transition, with respect to Northern Ireland. It also reflects on the challenges the UK faces in negotiating trade agreements with the EU while also doing so with the rest of the world.
Introduction
Authors: Pelgrom Jeremia , Weststeijn Arthur 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter shows the relevance of Carlo Sigionio’s reconstruction of Roman colonial practices for the history and theory of settler colonialism. It discusses how Sigonio’s analysis of Roman colonization as a vehicle of social emancipation implicitly criticized Venetian colonial strategies in the Eastern Mediterranean, and sketches its impact on European visions of overseas colonialism in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, highlighting English and Dutch examples of settler colonialism between Batavia (Jakarta) and Savannah, Georgia. For Sigonio, the Roman colony could be characterized as a well-ordered agrarian landscape concerned with protecting the property claims and political rights of a clearly defined community of citizen–farmers. With his detailed study of Roman colonial law and practice, Sigonio showed that there was a historical foundation for settler colonialism to work effectively. His reconstruction of the Roman settler colony made it possible to conceive of a colonial utopia as a concrete colonial practice.
The Mommsen of the Renaissance
Authors: Rich John 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
This chapter discusses Carlo Sigonio’s view on Roman colonization within the overall structure and aims of his treatises and assesses their achievement in the light of modern scholarship. By analysing in detail the structure of Sigonio’s collected work De antiquo iure populi Romani, the chapter argues that Sigonio’s innovative perspective on Roman colonial strategies was the result of his decision to use the concept of graded ius to organize and analyse his source material. This lucidity of structure, together with a thorough treatment of literary and epigraphic evidence, gave Sigonio’s treatises a quality unmatched by the productions of his peers and ensured that on many topics they were not surpassed until the nineteenth century. The chapter shows how Sigonio arrived at his original approach, providing a detailed overview of his studies, his close contacts with other leading academics, and the important new source material that became available at the time.
