Conclusion
Authors: Saunders Max 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
This steps back from the series in two respects. First, it assesses its broader reception, looking at its sales as well as reviews. It considers why it ended when it did. And it considers why it is not better known. It then assesses the significance of the project. Taking issue with Paul Saint-Amour’s study of interwar literature, Tense Future, it argues that the series’ futurological orientation offered a means of keeping a utopian hope alive in the face of anxiety about future catastrophe. It draws on Saint-Amour’s taxonomy of ‘critical futurities’, which assembles three currents of thought: ‘nuclear criticism, queer temporalities scholarship, and work that strives to re-emplot or reactivate futures past’. I argue that while the series most obviously falls into the third category, it also anticipates the others. This is demonstrated via a discussion of Haldane’s imagination of global annihilation, and the non-normative temporalities of a number of the volumes. A contrast with the 1999 collection Predictions reveals To-Day and To-Morrow’s success in anticipating future futurology. Ultimately, the series is posed as not merely offering some of the best writing on the individual topics, but as offering, collectively, a major documentation of how the interwar period thought about time, modernity, life, art and science. In doing so, it transforms our sense of modernism and modernity.
Conclusions of a Tentative Post-Conciliar Theology of the Jewish People
Authors: D'Costa Gavin 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Chapter 6 systematically draws together all doctrinal teachings developed in this book related to Jewish cultic rituals, the land, and mission. Regarding Jewish cultic rituals it summarizes why the Catholic Church is not going against earlier magisterial teachings that apparently teach that Jewish rituals are dead and deadly. Those very documents provide a counter current which suggests the opposite reading. Regarding the land it summarizes why the Catholic Church can support a minimalist Zionism that interprets the Jewish return as biblical, while refusing to endorse the state government or its various decisions, while also affirming the rights of Palestinians to a homeland and to justice. Regarding mission, it argues that a grass roots Hebrew Catholic community can offer witness to the reality that Judaism is not eradicated and superseded were a Jewish person to accept Christ and the truth of the Catholic Church. This is a form of mission.
Introduction

Abstract
This chapter sets out the central objective of this book: to provide a comprehensive examination of how effective and appropriate the investment treaty framework is in protecting foreign investment in times of armed conflict. It identifies the principal concerns that frame the analysis of the book and justify the need for the present study. It then outlines the scope of the enquiry, focusing on the concept of armed conflict. It identifies different approaches to conceptualizing armed conflict and proposes a typology to enhance the understanding of the main argument. The chapter concludes by presenting the research methodology and structure of the rest of the book.
Conclusion

Published: November 2019

Abstract
This chapter concludes the book. Drawing on the findings of the preceding chapters, it proposes the analytical framework for the appraisal of investment treaty protections in times of armed conflict. Specifically, it argues that how the competing objectives will be balanced at different stages of investment treaty claims depends on the combination of the paradigm dominating a particular treaty (investment v security), and the type and conditions of a conflict giving rise to the investment claim. It summarizes how the paradigms have shifted through the evolution of the investment protection rules and ultimately advocates a paradigm that combines both investment and security approaches.
Sexual Exegetics and the Female Text
Authors: Seal Samantha Katz 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Chapter 1 argues that paternity’s claims to authority were undermined by the inherent doubts associated with siring offspring. The inability for a man to know his children to be his own with certainty epitomized the divine limitations that had been placed upon men’s cognition. There was no perfect reciprocity between sign and meaning within a fallen world; men were forced to acquiesce to a semiotics of doubt and insufficiency. Chaucer explores these themes within the Manciple’s Tale and the Clerk’s Tale. In the former he writes affirmations of paternal certainty out of his source texts, and in the latter he depicts the search of a husband for cognitive certainty, a search that condemns the man’s wife, Griselda, to torturous scrutiny. Chaucer concludes that men must simply live with their own doubt, for doubt is a reminder to man that he is human, that true authority belongs to God alone.
Policy Favors
Authors: Mares Isabela , Young Lauren E. 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Chapter 4 examines clientelistic strategies where political brokers deploy state resources—privileged access to policy resources or administrative favors—as positive promises of future access to incentivize electoral choices of voters. Drawing on ethnographic research, it examines the strategies by which these brokers (mayors or employees in the local administration) seek to establish norms of political reciprocity to voters, the activation of these norms of reciprocity during elections, and the strategies used by brokers to ensure that voters comply with their political promises and vote for the correct candidate. Using list experiments, the chapter documents the use of these strategies during recent elections and examines the variation across localities in the use of such strategies. Finally, the informational opportunities and constraints associated with the use of this clientelistic strategy are examined. Using survey-based experiments, the chapter shows that the use of clientelistic strategies premised on favors has the least negative impact on perceptions of candidates with voters who are happy with the existing distribution of social policy resources.
A Fissile National Community
Authors: Tromly Benjamin 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Chapter 1 explores anti-communist movements of the Russian diaspora, setting the stage for their participation in the Cold War. The anti-communist cause housed four major movements in the postwar years: the Whites, or Russian conservatives who had fled communist rule during the Russian Civil War (1918–22); a cohort of democratic socialists who had opposed the tsars before being driven out by Lenin; the so-called Vlasovites, Soviet citizens who exited their home country during World War II and then attached themselves to a Russian liberation army formed under Nazi auspices; and the National Labor Alliance (NTS), a far-right émigré organization, most of whose members collaborated with Nazi Germany during World War II. As the chapter argues, the different experiences of these groups—in Russia, during displacement, and while in exile—informed their divergent notions of Russia’s past and future.
Socialists and Vlasovites
Authors: Tromly Benjamin 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
This chapter examines a project of the late 1940s to forge a transatlantic alliance in the Russian emigration. The unlikely initiators of this scheme were elderly Russian socialists in the United States, including Russia’s former premier Aleksandr Federovich Kerenskii, who attempted to build an alliance against Stalin with the Vlasovites in Germany. The intended partnership was troubled from the start, as émigré attempts to mobilize against communism instead gave rise to divisive debates about collaboration during World War II and the Russian Revolution. As seen throughout the book, exile mobilization against the Soviet Union gave rise to debilitating conflicts to define the Russian national interest.
The Real Anti-Soviet Russians?
Authors: Tromly Benjamin 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Chapter 9 examines Soviet defectors, citizens who fled Soviet rule, with a focus on Germany. The United States developed elaborate programs to utilize defectors as sources of unattainable information about the enemy, as recruits for psychological warfare or espionage operations, and as symbols of Western superiority in the clash of ideological systems. This chapter draws on previously unused sources to draw a collective portrait of Soviet defectors. Rather than committed cold warriors, most defectors were low-level soldiers or personnel who fled the Soviet bloc for non-political reasons and then experienced an isolated and fearful existence in West Germany. They constituted an unreliable cohort in American political-warfare efforts, as shown by the history of TsOPE, the CIA’s defector organization. They were also a problematic addition to the Russian political exiles in Germany, as the defectors blended into and even encouraged the internecine conflict that was the norm in Russian diaspora politics.
“All Will Be Forgiven”
Authors: Tromly Benjamin 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Chapter 10 addresses “redefection,” or the movement of Russian exiles back across the Iron Curtain from West to East. In mid-decade, in part as a reaction to Amcomlib’s emergence as a viable sponsor of psychological-warfare programs, the Kremlin launched a massive campaign to convince Soviet exiles to relocate to the USSR. The chapter depicts the return campaign, pursued through a KGB-front organization called the Committee for Return to the Homeland, as an effective tool for destabilizing and demoralizing the Russian anti-communists in Germany. While the return campaign damaged the émigré anti-communist camp badly, it also had the unanticipated consequence of encouraging American cold warriors and Russian anti-communists to bury their differences after the fiasco of the united-front campaign. In this way, the return campaign demonstrated the difficulty both superpowers experienced in influencing the Russian émigré milieu, as each step by one side produced a countermove by the other.
Unreliable Allies
Authors: Tromly Benjamin 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Chapter 11 turns to a crucial challenge faced by the CIA-backed Russian exiles: the shifting political situation in West Germany, the crucial place d’armes for Cold War political operations against the Soviet bloc. The two main Russian organizations funded by the agency, the NTS and TsOPE, attempted with great persistence to gain the sympathy of West German political and academic elites in the 1950s. German anti-Russian sentiment limited the success of the émigré charm offensive, however, while the shifting form of the Cold War in Europe weakened their position in the country. In the second half of the 1950s, CIA operations utilizing exiles came under scrutiny and pressure from the now sovereign West German state, which sought to safeguard its new diplomatic relationship with the USSR.
Notes from the Mediterranean
Authors: Mainwaring Ċetta 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
The introductory chapter first examines how and why EU migration policies have focused on control at the external border. The following section looks at how these policies encourage dangerous journeys across the Mediterranean and result in an increasing number of migrant deaths at the edge of Europe. In this context, shipwrecks play an important role in the politics of migration and are alternately cast as a humanitarian crisis and an enforcement problem, with migrants reduced to symbols of suffering or criminality and disorder. The Mediterranean space is reduced to an empty space, a mare nullius that allows for the projection of a unified, cohesive ‘Europe’ and provides a moral alibi for deaths at sea. Next, the chapter introduces the central case study of Malta, which EU policies place in the crosshairs of migration flows and migration control. It is from here, the EU’s smallest and most southern member state, that the book examines migrant experiences as well as Malta’s response to its new role as a migration gatekeeper within the EU. Finally, the chapter describes the methods and methodology employed before mapping the subsequent chapters of the book. In the book, ethnographic methods are combined with macro-level analyses in order to examine the relationships between local, national, and regional levels.
Schooling Little Gentlemen
Authors: Hatfield Mary 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Based on primary source material from bourgeois and elite boarding schools, this chapter considers the debate on appropriate education for middle-class boys. Irish middle-class schools largely emulated the classical curriculum offered in British and Continental elite schools; however, there was a move towards offering a more practical course of studies for scholars bound for a mercantile future during the 1840s. An examination of the bourgeois school environment, the institutional construction of masculine success and failure, and the content of a manly education suggest a way of understanding adult projections of boyhood and children’s experience of a boarding school education.
Divination and the ‘Real Presence’ of the Divine in Ancient Greece
Authors: Flower Michael A. 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
This chapter applies Robert Orsi’s concepts of ‘real presence’ and ‘abundant history’ to the study of ancient Greek religion, using divination as a case study. It proposes that we should take real presence seriously as something that most Greeks took for granted. Although investigating religious experience is extraordinarily difficult, one of the best places to look is in the ubiquitous practice of divination. For it is in the context of the divinatory ritual that the real presence of the divine was commonly to be experienced. Case studies include the epiphany of Asklepios to Isyllos of Epidauros, the lead oracular tablets from Dodona, and the role of divination in the Athenian expedition to Sicily in 415 bce. The latter event is compared to the belief of the Lakota Sioux that their ghost shirts would protect them from bullets at the Battle of Wounded Knee in 1890. In both cases, a collective belief in prophecy and in the real presence of supernatural forces instilled an assurance of victory, and this assurance was then followed by a rejection of the religious specialists who had promoted a positive interpretation of the message and the outcome.
Which Gods if Any
Authors: Raphals Lisa 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
This chapter explores two important factors that led to differences in how Greek and Chinese interlocutors addressed mantic queries to divine powers, and argues that the relative absence of ‘gods’ in Chinese mantic practice (divination) had significant consequences for both cosmology and mantic practice itself. The first of these factors was different beliefs about the degree of direct divine involvement. Greek mantic practices consistently address gods directly, whereas some Chinese mantic methods are significantly grounded in cosmological contexts and calculations. The second was the Chinese belief in a systematic cosmos, which had no immediate Greek parallel. The chapter examines how Chinese ‘spirits’ (shen 神) were addressed in mantic practice, despite this ‘cosmological turn’. It revisits two problems within the literature on this topic. One (the so-called ‘“question” question’), a controversy in the study of Shang dynasty oracle bone inscriptions, is whether we should understand ‘mantic questions’ as queries or requests. The other, a controversy in the study of Greek divination, is how Greek oracular responses were used by consultor states, especially the argument that the most important functions of oracles were political and rhetorical.
Bingo as Practice and Lens
Authors: Bedford Kate 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Chapter 1 argues that gambling in general, and bingo in particular, provide a valuable entry point for conversations about political economy. Specifically, it shows how bingo offers a distinctive lens on existing debates about gambling and political economy, allowing new questions to be posed. To this end, the chapter engages directly with three reasons the author was given for why not to study bingo: (1) that its player demographics mean that the game is too niche and marginalized to offer generalizable lessons; (2) that it is not really gambling; and (3) that it is dead or dying. The chapter considers each in turn, contending that bingo matters in part because of its distinctive demographics, its self-effacing nature, its awkwardness of fit, and its decades-long decline. Rather than making the game irrelevant, these factors suggest that bingo—no less than casinos, or stock markets—can contribute to new ways of thinking about capitalism.
‘Something Rather Perverse’
Authors: Bedford Kate 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Focused on debates preceding the passing of the Gambling Act 2005, Chapter 4 traces a final set of changes in how gambling was understood to relate to national visions of risk, profit-making, insurance, and welfare in the UK. Under New Labour, commercial gambling was repositioned as a potential regeneration tool, with the state’s role in part to ensure its success in the domestic and global marketplace. This led to a further narrowing of lawmakers’ visions about gambling. The chapter focuses specifically on New Labour’s casino expansion and online gambling liberalization plans, identifying a reorientation of elite gambling debates to focus on globally salient, technologically cutting-edge spectacles, designed to draw outsiders. Everyday forms of play—especially in multi-use environments—became newly problematic for the state, and in some cases they were to be subjected to increased surveillance. The chapter hereby challenges claims that the 2005 Act represented a neo-liberal effort to encourage risk-taking.
Conclusion
Authors: Bedford Kate 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
The conclusion recaps the two uses that Bingo Capitalism has made of bingo—as practice and lens—to summarize its contribution to work on diverse economies, regulation, and gender. In its own right, bingo matters for our debates about gambling law and policy: indeed, we cannot understand the evolution of UK gambling law and policy without taking the game into account. Bingo reveals both the historical centrality of non-commercial, mutual aid gambling to UK law and policy debates, and the ongoing diversity of meanings attached to gambling in everyday life. In particular current bingo practices show the key role of workers—along with members and consumers—in reanimating gambling vernaculars, in the face of technologies and state definitional practices that seek to automate play. Bingo also brings women’s voices and experiences into gambling debates, and shows how gender is both shaped by, and constitutive of, state rules on everyday playful speculation. Using bingo as lens, the book has argued that the space for the coexistence of diverse economies has been reduced, with the mutual aid dimensions of political economy increasingly eclipsed by commercial and/or charitable dimensions. Given these findings, our accounts of political economy need to focus more on the gendered regulatory entanglements between capitalist and more-than-capitalist dimensions of everyday life.
Contemporary Neuroscience’s Epiphenomenal Challenge to Responsibility
Authors: Moore Michael S. 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
This paper examines a particular challenge to responsible agency thought to be mounted by contemporary neuroscience. The challenge stems from the alleged experimental demonstration that human choices, and the actions they putatively cause, are mere epiphenomena of one another, co-effects of common causes in the brain of the acting subject. Denied by this challenge is that choices cause the actions that are their objects, seemingly an indispensable requirement for there to be responsible agency. The force of this challenge is blunted by a showing that in certain cases we can control (and thus be responsible) for more than we cause—that (more specifically) we sometimes are in control of a harm that is one horn of an epiphenomenal fork by knowing of the fork’s existence and by being in control of the other horn of that fork, even while recognizing that of course there can be no causal relationship across the horns of such forks.
Associationist Aesthetics and the Foundations of the Architectural Imagination
Authors: Townshend Dale 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
This chapter seeks to provide an account of how aestheticians and practising architects in the long eighteenth century variously accounted for the imaginative potential of Gothic architecture. Showing how architectural debates in the period were structured according to the classical/Gothic divide, it explores the empiricist discourse of architectural association as it runs from John Locke, through Joseph Addison, Mark Akenside, William Chambers, Alexander Gerard, Thomas Gray, William Gilpin, and others, into the work of John Soane. Situating the architectural writings of Horace Walpole within this tradition, it discusses Walpole’s engagement with the architectural theories of his day. Through a reading of the work of William Beckford, the chapter charts the shift from empiricism to idealism in the architectural imagination of the early nineteenth century.
History is a Map 2
Authors: Nelson Claudia , Morey Anne 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
This chapter examines a set of texts—Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson and the Olympians series (2005–9), Vaughan Edwards and Barry Creyton’s The Dogs of Pompeii (2011), Paul Shipton’s Gryllus the Pig duology (2004–6), Gary Northfield’s Julius Zebra series (2015–18), and Robin Price’s Spartapuss series (2004–15)—that undermine the reader’s presumption of distance from the classical world through an emphasis upon grotesquerie and play. While the protagonists of the first two sets of texts examined are children, the other books deploy animals or humans in animal bodies to emphasize that the classics are accessible to the child reader and that consuming narratives about the past is both serious business and play. In these narratives, the past is itself an object to be consumed as popular culture is consumed; the protagonist of these narratives is likewise obliged to offer himself as an object of consumption through acts of heroic (or mock-heroic) self-sacrifice. Rather than proposing the past as a hard-to-access site of superior culture, these narratives propose it as a place of triumphant popular culture familiar to child readers from their own experience.
History is Fractal
Authors: Nelson Claudia , Morey Anne 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
This chapter explores dystopian works—Diana Wynne Jones’s The Game (2007), Alan Garner’s Red Shift (1971), John Christopher’s Fireball series (1981–6), N. M. Browne’s Warriors series (2000–9), Suzanne Collins’s Hunger Games trilogy (2008–10), Sabaa Tahir’s An Ember in the Ashes and its two sequels (2015–18), and Megan Whalen Turner’s The Queen’s Thief series (1996–2017)—whose dominant spatial metaphor is that of the fractal. The fractal structure offers a jaundiced view of progress marred by conflicts large and small whose protagonists are caught within uncontrollable repetition. It is argued that memory is central to this exploration of conflict and that memory is intertwined with guilt and empathy. While these works also foreground the agency of the young protagonist, efforts at communication are as likely to be damaging as healing, and emotion is often revealed to be a matter of performance rather than authenticity.
