Propelled
Authors: Elpidorou Andreas 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Weaving together stories from sources as wide-ranging as classical literature, social and cognitive psychology, philosophy, art, and video games, Propelled: How Boredom, Frustration, and Anticipation Lead Us to the Good Life makes a lively case for the value of discontent in our lives. It offers novel, detailed, and scientifically informed characterizations of the nature and outcomes of boredom, frustration, and anticipation. The book demonstrates why these three states should not be viewed as obstacles to our goals but as elements of the good life and explicates how they can illuminate our desires and expectations, inform us when we find ourselves stuck in unpleasant and unfulfilling situations, and motivate us to furnish our lives with meaning, interest, and value.
The Changing College Student
Authors: Patricia Herzog 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Chapter 1 explains how social science can help students navigate college. Beginning with illustrative student case studies, the introductory chapter describes how social, economic, and cultural changes over the last several decades resulted in the new life course stage called “emerging adulthood.” Emerging adults today are different from the entering college students of the past, which means that today’s students’ experiences are markedly distinct from that of their parents and grandparents. Detailing these differences across generations of entering college students, this chapter discusses the implications of these changes for understanding entering college students today. This chapter also introduces and summarizes the content of the subsequent book chapters.
Becoming a Leader and Giving to Others
Authors: Patricia Herzog 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Chapter 7 helps students learn from personal experiences and overcome structural challenges to become leaders in college. Being a leader requires recognizing one’s personal strengths and learning how to engage those strengths on campus, which builds skills and experiences for broader civic engagement beyond college. The goal in this chapter is to alert students to the ways that college provides an opportunity to construct future paths. Moreover, the chapter presents a wide array of options for finding a niche group or activity on campus, which can help students feel integrated and develop valuable leadership skills.
Making Informed Choices, for Now and Later
Authors: Patricia Herzog 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Chapter 8 explains that college provides a safe place to explore different career options. Students learn that switching majors, interning, working as a research assistant, and talking with professors are all excellent ways to test out majors and assess whether a career in that field is a good fit. Simultaneously, the chapter presents college as a safe space for career exploration and addresses tips for changing majors, talking with parents about desired careers, finding a vocation or career path, and shaping professional identity. The book culminates with a section about how to navigate college, and life generally, with research-based decisions. Following these recommendations will ensure that students continue their journey as learners, informed citizens, and social leaders long after they finish reading this book.
How to Alienate Others
Authors: Harrison Brian F. 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Chapter 3 is a discussion about what not to do in conversations about politics, focusing on three common pitfalls. The first is approaching discussions as a competition. The goal of a conversation is not to “win” nor to wage a battle against another person; the goal is to come to a clearer understanding of what the other person thinks and, in the process, to come to a clearer understanding of one’s own thinking. Second, another common hiccup in meaningful dialogue is using the wrong tone, often resulting in shame or defensiveness. One of the surest ways to shut down a conversation before it starts is to make someone feel ashamed or defensive. Finally, the chapter identifies approaches to finding the most appropriate places and times to engage with other people in a meaningful way.
The Mechanics of Persuasion and the Impact of Information
Authors: Harrison Brian F. 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Chapter 4 shifts to strategies and tactics of what we should do during political discussions, starting with how to best prepare before the conversation even begins. In this era of “fake news,” the use of data and statistics in interpersonal conversations can be complicated. We are naturally inclined to seek and to trust information that reinforces current beliefs and actively discount information that challenges beliefs. Given that proclivity, how we use information in political discussions has become more important than ever. This chapter considers ways to empower ourselves with reliable information from credible sources and how to bolster arguments in a way that does not alienate an audience. Anticipating counterarguments and the kinds of suspicion we may face from others can help identify the right information and sources to counteract the skepticism that many feel for the media and other information sources.
Is the Engagement Survey the Only Way?
Authors: Chakrabarti Madhura , McCune Elizabeth A. 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Organizations are faced with a new challenge as the landscape around employee sensing evolves: Beyond a traditional engagement survey, where can organizations look to gather employee data and subsequently analyze, interpret, and act upon those data to enhance the employee experience? A useful starting point is to be aware of the plethora of sources for employee sensing available today. This chapter covers a range of internal, external, active, and passive data sources that organizations can use to expand their listening systems beyond surveys. The data sources described include network data, biometrics, internal ticket management data, and others. Use cases provide concrete examples of how these data sources are being applied to employee sensing.
Mechanics of Survey Data Analysis
Authors: Moye Melinda J. , O’Malley Alison L. 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
In this chapter the authors outline important issues to consider when setting up a survey so that the administration team or a third party vendor is able to conduct meaningful analyses afterward. They discuss decisions surrounding data structure, confidential versus anonymous surveys, and missing data and reporting elements. They also discuss understanding variability, item history, and using norms and benchmark data. The latter part of the chapter focuses on model-building. In summary, it is critical to establish a purpose for a survey and to have a clear strategy for data analysis at the outset to facilitate leaders’ understanding of the data and their ability to act afterward.
Taking Action to Drive Change Through Survey Key Driver Analysis
Authors: Johnson Jeff W. 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Survey key driver analysis (SKDA) is a general term describing statistical procedures for identifying priorities from among a larger set of topics measured by a survey. The key drivers of a particular outcome measured by a survey (e.g., employee engagement) are the survey topics or items that are most highly associated with the outcome. By determining the relative importance of each survey topic to a particular outcome, SKDA suggests where attention should be focused to have the greatest impact on that outcome, helping decision makers prioritize action to drive meaningful change. This chapter describes appropriate SKDA methods, addresses potential criticisms of the approach, makes recommendations for the proper application of SKDA, and addresses the most frequent methodological questions that arise concerning SKDA.

The purpose of this chapter is to review and provide recommendations on data privacy and ethical considerations related to employee attitude measurement, including new technologies. This is followed by a review of the ethical considerations related to employee surveys, including the ever-changing legal landscape. The authors then summarize select new technologies that collect employee attitude data and discuss the challenges they pose. They close with recommendations for the use of employee surveys and evolving technologies.
Health and Wealth
Authors: Rotberg Robert I. 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Africa’s current 1 billion or so residents are healthier than they have ever been thanks to medical science, special attention in several key countries to chronic disease remediation, and the efforts of several American philanthropic enterprises. Life expectancies are up and morbidity is mostly down, allowing Africans to work more productively, enjoy more leisure, and exert middle class pressures on their respective national governments. Daily life has become a little less brutish in a Hobbesian manner than it once was. There is more space and time now for the cultivation of progress socially, economically, and politically. But children still die in great number from pneumonia, tuberculosis is rife, HIV/AIDS persists, and malaria has not yet been eradicated. So Africans are still at risk.
Things Come Together:
Authors: Rotberg Robert I. 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Africans are achieving greatness, or are at least poised to do so in this century. But to ensure such a positive outcome, Africans will have to tame the demographic tidal wave that threatens to bring vast numbers of young people into nearly all of their countries. In order to meet this challenge, schooling opportunities will have to expand and strengthen at the secondary and tertiary levels; technically skilled persons will need to become more numerous; and much more emphasis than now will have to be placed on capacity building for rapid economic growth. As people numbers surge, so crises will occur if employment possibilities expand too slowly, and without overcoming today’s sclerotic production of jobs. With intensifying urbanization, rural upheavals and massive in-migration, and crushing pressures within the planet’s largest cities, Africa’s coming together will depend on successfully meeting these and many other tough, but surmountable, challenges.
Peer Groups and Tamil Identity inside and outside Schools
Authors: Davis Christina P. 
Published: May 2020

AbstractChapter 5 examines how the Tamil girls and boys at Hindu College managed different forms of monitoring and the reproducing of ethnicity inside and outside school. In school their Tamil identities were continually reinforced in relation to their linguistic practices. Outside school they navigated a Sinhala-majority setting, where the very act of speaking Tamil could be considered inappropriate, offensive, or even a security threat. The youth moved through and created different kinds of interactional spaces to which others were not privy—in classrooms, outside school, in groups, and traveling alone. This chapter argues that studies of youth interactions look beyond more obvious school/nonschool comparisons to analyze how participant frameworks dynamically mediate linguistic and social behavior. It also shows how the Hindu College youth managed their status as lower-class ethnic minorities by building Tamil cocoons around themselves to insulate them in Sinhala-majority public spaces.
Values Across the Lifespan
Authors: Jecker Nancy S. 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Chapter 1 introduces the chief claim and main argument of the book, which we call the life stage relativity of values. This is the claim that different values matter more at different stages of our lives. During early life, caring, trust, and nurturing ought to figure prominently, due to the vulnerabilities and needs that characterize infancy and childhood. By young adulthood, the capacity to develop greater physical and emotional independence makes autonomy a focal value. During later life, we face heightened risk for chronic disease and disability, which makes maintaining capabilities central, and, in the face of loss, keeping dignity intact. Chapter 1 raises the concern that moral theories reflect life stage bias, in particular, midlife bias. Midlife bias consists of applying the values central during midlife to all life stages. Countering it requires addressing empirical, conceptual, and psychological naïveté and situating values within the context of life stages.
The Dying, the Newly Dead, and the Long Gone
Authors: Jecker Nancy S. 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Chapter 10 takes a careful look at duties to the dying, the newly dead, and the long gone. Care of the dying and newly dead are urgent matters for aged societies, because older people die at higher rates than other age group. The chapter unpacks the slogan “Death with dignity” and asks what duties to respect the dignity of people near the end of life is required. It examines debates over physician-assisted death and rational suicide for healthy older people. It evaluates definitions of death, noting global variation, and proposes duties owed to the newly dead and long gone. Key concepts, such as narrative identity, help flesh out the idea of a “good death.” Borrowing from ethics and archeology literature, Chapter 10 introduces a systematic way to think about duties to the long gone, including human fossils with archeological significance and ancestors in native burial grounds.
Emotional Arenas
Authors: Seymour Mark 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Based on the records of a murder trial that transfixed the nation, this book is a social history of 1870s Italy that develops a new paradigm for the history of emotions - the ‘emotional arena’. The decade following Italian unification formed a context of notable cultural variety and fluidity, and the experience and expression of emotions could be as variable as the regions making up the new nation. Through a close examination of a range of specific spaces in which lives, loves, and deaths unfolded – such as marital homes, places of socializing and entertainment, funerals, and a Roman courtroom – the book argues that social ‘arenas’ are crucial to the historical development of emotional cultural rules and styles. The narrative is driven by the failed marriage of a decorated but allegedly impotent Risorgimento soldier, his wife’s affair with a circus artiste (who had a string of previous lovers), and the illicit new couple’s murder of the husband. Hundreds of witnesses – from local professionals to servants and even circus clowns – interviewed across the length and breadth of the peninsula, left their personal views on marriage, love, sexuality, and infidelity. These provide a series of peepholes into little-known corners of the new nation’s social fabric. A careful yet imaginative reading of the prosecution records and contemporary newspaper coverage allows exploration of the highly emotional experiences generated by this story. The result is a classic Italian micro-history with surprising relevance for today’s emotionally volatile times.
Rejecting Constituent Power
Authors: Colón-Ríos Joel 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
This chapter examines two related traditions of thought that reject the existence of an extra-legal constituent power or deprive it of one of its main features. The first of these traditions, the doctrine of the historical or internal constitution, presented a direct challenge to the theory of constituent power. In Spain, the main exponent of this doctrine during the 19th century was Gaspar Melchor de Jovellanos, who held that rather than the result of an act of will, constitutions emerged through long historical processes and could not be simply created and recreated. The second (and related) line of attack against the concept of constituent power during the 19th century came from the French and Spanish doctrinaires. The doctrinaires rejected the idea that the people (or any other individual or group) had a right to create new constitutional orders. For them, sovereign authority belonged to reason itself, not to the monarch or the community. The chapter examines the practical implications of these ideas by exploring the debates that took place during the adoption of the Spanish Constitution of 1845.
The Material Constitution
Authors: Colón-Ríos Joel 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
This chapter explores the way in which several authors understood the relationship between the material constitution and constituent power, and how that understanding affected their views about the legal limits of the ordinary power of constitutional reform. Part I begins with a brief examination of the historical development of the distinction between the amending and the constituent power. Part II examines the place of the concept of super-legality in Hauriou’s work. For this author, constitutional super-legality includes not only the content of a written constitution protected by a special rule of change, but also the fundamental principles that stand above the constitution itself. Part III introduces Kelsen’s conception of the material constitution which, unlike Hauriou’s, is entirely consistent with the notion of an unlimited amendment power, one which cannot ultimately be bound by eternity clauses and much less by implicit principles. In Part IV, this ‘descriptive’ approach will be contrasted with that of Schmitt. Somewhat counter-intuitively, under Schmitt’s approach, the frequent appeal to an unlimited and unmediated constituent subject leads to the attribution of limited competences to the amending authority. Part V shows how Heller’s conception of the material constitution, although at first sight appearing as a successful synthesis of Kelsen and Schmitt, provides no clear basis for justifying the protection of the material constitution through the legal appeal to an extra-legal constituent authority. Finally, the chapter examines Mortati’s views about the material constitution’s potential role in justifying the imposition of legally enforceable limits on the amending authority.
Statistical Field Theory
Authors: Mussardo Giuseppe 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
This book is an introduction to statistical field theory, which is an important subject within theoretical physics and a field that has seen substantial progress in recent years. The book covers fundamental topics in great detail and includes areas like conformal field theory, quantum integrability, S-matrices, braiding groups, Bethe ansatz, renormalization groups, Majorana fermions, form factors, the truncated conformal space approach and boundary field theory. It also provides an introduction to lattice statistical models. Many topics are discussed at a fairly advanced level but via a pedagogical approach. In particular, the book presents in a clear way non-perturbative methods of quantum field theories that have become decisive tools in many different areas of statistical and condensed matter physics, and which are currently an essential foundation of the working knowledge of a modern theoretical physicist.
Conformal Field Theory
Authors: Mussardo Giuseppe 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Chapter 10 introduces the notion of conformal transformations and the important topic of the massless quantum field theories associated to the critical points of the statistical models. The chapter establishes the important conceptual result that the classification of all possible critical phenomena in two dimensions consists of finding out all possible irreducible representations of the Virasoro algebra. It covers the algebra of local fields, conformal invariance, Polyakov's theorem, quasi-primary fields, Ward identity, primary fields, the Schwartz derivative, the representation theory, radial quantization, the Hilbert space of conformal states, the use of the Cauchy formula, orthogonality of conformal families and structure constants of descendant fields.
Conformal Field Theories with Extended Symmetries
Authors: Mussardo Giuseppe 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
The conformal transformations may be part of a larger group of symmetry. Chapter 13 discusses several of the extensions of conformal field theory, including supersymmetry, ZN transformations and current algebras. It also covers superconformal models, the Neveu–Schwarz and Ramond sectors, irreducible representations and minimal models, additional symmetry, the supersymmetric Landau–Ginzburg theory, parafermion models, the relation to lattice models, Kac–Moody algebras, Virasoro operators, the Sugawara Formula, maximal weights and conformal models as cosets. The appendix provides for the interested reader a self-contained discussion on the Lie algebras, include the dual Coxeter numbers, properties of weight vectors and roots/simple roots.
Integrable Quantum Field Theories
Authors: Mussardo Giuseppe 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Chapter 16 covers the general properties of the integrable quantum field theories, including how an integrable quantum field theory is characterized by an infinite number of conserved charges. These theories are illustrated by means of significant examples, such as the Sine–Gordon model or the Toda field theories based on the simple roots of a Lie algebra. For the deformations of a conformal theory, it shown how to set up an efficient counting algorithm to prove the integrability of the corresponding model. The chapter focuses on two-dimensional models, and uses the term ‘two-dimensional’ to denote both a generic two-dimensional quantum field theory as well as its Euclidean version.
Form Factor Perturbation Theory
Authors: Mussardo Giuseppe 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
Chapter 22 introduces a perturbative technique based on the form factors to study non-integrable models. These models often include stumbling blocks like decays and production scattering processes, confinement phenomena and nucleation of false vacua, resonance peaks in the cross sections, etc. All these physical aspects are usually accompanied by a great mathematical complexity. However, the perturbative technique permits the computation of the corrections to the mass spectrum, the vacuum energy, the scattering amplitudes and so on. This chapter discusses in depth multiple deformations of the conformal field theories, form factor perturbation theory, first-order perturbation theory, non-locality and confinement of the excitations and the multi-frequency Sine–Gordon model.
Symbolic Management of Policy and Structure
Authors: Westphal James , Park Sun Hyun 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
In this chapter we review theory and research suggesting that over a period of several decades, a series of policies and structures emerged as potent forms of symbolic management as a new economic logic of governance referred to as the agency logic became institutionalized in the financial community. We argue that the institutionalization of the agency logic not only led to the reinterpretation of particular governance policies and structures, but it increased the symbolic importance of corporate governance at large. We go on to explain how the institutionalization of the agency logic contributed to a lasting increase in symbolic management activity by firm leaders, both with respect to the frequency of symbolic management and the variety of its forms.
