Process—Coaching Sessions
Authors: Church Joseph 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
Part III focuses on the application of the theory, history, aesthetics, character and musical analysis, and technique discussed in chapters 1–6. In the form of chronicles of coaching and music direction situations for eleven rock theatre songs, the reader sees the principles of earlier chapters in action. Attention is again paid to stylistic variety in the material and to the many influences rock music has exerted on the theatre, in both musical and dramatic terms. The importance of upholding both believability and genuine rock aesthetics, and striking the appropriate balance between them, is a theme common to all the sessions. Each coaching is broken down into the background, dramatic context, and performance practices of the material at hand, an analysis of the song in the rock historical continuum, and suggestions for performance germane to the premise of the book: creating effective characterization and telling the story of a song or musical while maintaining an authentic rock performance.
Violence, the Exception, and Bare Life
Authors: Heath Deana 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
Rather than being an aberrant act of violence, police torture in colonial India was instead simply a visible manifestation of a much broader history of quotidian, structural, and ‘civilizing’ violence. Such forms of violence, this chapter suggests, ruptured and unmade the world of the colonized, who in turn resorted to violence as a means of world-making or re-worlding. The chapter examines, in addition, how violence operated in relation to the exception through engaging with both Giorgio Agamben’s work on states of exception and Foucault’s insights on governmentality, and argues that two levels of exceptionality were in operation in contexts such as colonial India that essentially rendered them regimes of exception in which much of the colonized population was rendered what Agamben refers to as homo sacer, and thus capable of being killed with impunity.
1975 Ceasefire
Authors: Ó Dochartaigh Niall 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
Back-channel contacts led in early 1975 to an IRA ceasefire that lasted for much of that year. IRA representatives and British government officials now embarked for the first time since the outbreak of the Troubles on a series of regular face-to-face meetings aimed at negotiating an end to the conflict. The venue was the house of intermediary Brendan Duddy in Derry. Chapter Five offers a new explanation for the failure of a serious and sustained effort to bring a negotiated end to the conflict during the IRA ceasefire of 1975. It outlines the mutual understanding and goodwill that developed in the course of these secret talks. It shows the extent of the intra-party divisions that hindered compromise and explains how they contributed to the collapse of the ceasefire and the breakdown of talks. It argues that, in many important respects, this process was a precursor to the peace settlement of the 1990s and shared many of its key features, including a willingness by the IRA to compromise on its core ideological positions and to contemplate alternatives to Irish reunification.
Reflections on the Introduction of Official Measures of Subjective Well-Being in the United Kingdom
Authors: Allin Paul V. 
Published: April 2021

AbstractFrom 2011 onward, surveys by the UK’s national statistics office have included four subjective well-being questions. This is specifically so that summary statistics about subjective well-being inform a broader assessment of national well-being along with other, largely objective measures, as well as anticipating policy needs. This chapter reviews how and why the four questions were chosen. The author focuses on their “practical utility,” a concept fundamental to all official statistics. He reports some progress in policy take-up of well-being statistics, though little media coverage, and a lack of evidence about whether people are thinking differently about their goals and their well-being based on well-being measures. Official statisticians must engage more with politics, policy, businesses, academia, and public opinion, thereby helping to stimulate demand for their outputs, including well-being measures. The author also questions how national well-being measures can be determined nationally while benefitting from international cooperation and standards.
The Challenge of Measuring Well-Being as Philosophers Conceive of It
Authors: Baril Anne 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
Many philosophers find the prospect of working with researchers in the social and behavioral sciences exciting, in part because they hope that these researchers might be able to measure well-being as the philosopher conceives of it. In this chapter, the author considers how the measurement of well-being, as it is conceived of by philosophers, might be facilitated. She proposes that existing scales can be employed for this purpose, and she supports this conclusion through an in-depth discussion of an example. The author explains how a scale of psychological well-being validated in more than 750 empirical studies may be employed to measure the extent to which a person has realized an ostensible basic good. This discussion is illustrative of the general method that may be employed to bring empirical researchers and philosophers into contact in a way that will facilitate the measurement of well-being as philosophers conceive of it.
Comparing Empirical and Theological Perspectives on the Relationship Between Hope and Aesthetic Experience
Authors: Wynn Mark R. 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
While hope and the experience of beauty both have a claim to be key constituents of the spiritual life, it is not obvious that there is any deep-seated connection between them. In this chapter, the author examines three ways of developing the idea that there is some such association. He draws on empirically informed as well as theological perspectives, and, on this basis, he addresses a further question concerning the respective contributions of different kinds of enquiry to our understanding of spiritual well-being. The discussion is concerned with the relationship between two dimensions of spiritual well-being: openness to aesthetic experience, and hope understood as a trait of character. For the most part, the experience of beauty in particular will provide the focus, although on occasion the interest will be in aesthetic experience more generally.
On Being Mortal
Authors: Fitzduff Mari 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
This chapter introduces readers to the basics of what they need to know about social psychology—that is, the study of how people’s feelings, ideas, and behaviors are influenced by the presence of others. It also looks at the increasingly important bio/neural factors such as genes, brain structure, and hormonal processes that are now being examined and understood as relevant to any study of human behavior, including group conflicts. In addition, it provides a brief introduction to the various methodologies that are increasingly able to measure social behavior, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging, electroencephalography, DNA analysis, and hormonal testing.
Follow the Leader
Authors: Fitzduff Mari 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
This chapter looks at the importance of leaders in setting the tone and direction of contexts that are riven by confusion and conflict. The supremacy of emotions in choosing our leaders is particularly relevant in situations torn apart by conflict. In such situations our choices are often instinctual, dictated not only by our environment, our emotions, genetics, and brain structures but also by hormones such as adrenaline, norepinephrine, and cortisol, which inform our response to fear messages. This supremacy of emotions in choosing our leaders is particularly relevant in situations termed “weak psychological situations” such as crises or situations characterized by uncertainty and by the presence and/or threat of out-groups. It appears that our desire for a strong leader who will provide us with security can often significantly outrank our desire for democracy and has important consequences for our capacity to manage conflict
New Horizons, New Tribes
Authors: Fitzduff Mari 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
This chapter looks at the future of war in a world where social media are ubiquitous and at how our social and biological natures are affected, both for good and for evil, by their presence, particularly in times of conflict and war. Social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter have already significantly changed how people, communities, and nations relate to each other, form new connections, or deepen older ones. They have also radically changed how people make judgments about leaders, and other groups, and how they act on those judgments. Such power is unprecedented and has potentially disastrous consequences if used in situations of tension and violence. It appears that our human social and biological tendencies make us easy prey for varied purveyors of conflict who wish to emotionally persuade us to support particular goals or objectives. We therefore need to find better ways to ensure that we can effectively prevent the hijacking of our human and emotional predispositions and that social media processes deliver on what is the best in our human biosocial nature and not the worst.
Peacebuilding More Successfully?
Authors: Fitzduff Mari 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
This chapter addresses some of the suggestions that are emerging from the growing field of social and behavioral psychology about how the work of peacebuilders, diplomats, the military, and others can use some of the insights noted in this book. The suggestions are not a substitute for the theories and practices that are currently in use by researchers and activists in their various fields. Rather they suggest an extra way of undertaking our analysis by taking into account the multiple lawyers of instincts and emotions that often imbue the actions of communities and peoples involved in often violent conflict. Every such analysis will of course be informed by the particular complexities of the contexts within which particular conflicts are occurring, and the security needs within that context. But by also addressing the instinctual and emotional needs of the various parties involved in conflicts, the work of peacebuilders of all hues can make their work more effective and more sustainable.
God's Marshall Plan
Authors: Strasburg James D. 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
God’s Marshall Plan explores the origins of Christian nationalism and Christian globalism—two competing theologies of global engagement—in the American Protestant encounter with twentieth-century Europe. It recovers the story of the American Protestants who crossed the Atlantic in an era of world war, tracked the rise of totalitarian dictators, mobilized against the Axis powers, and began to identify Europe as a continent in need of saving. In response, they launched far-reaching missions to spread their faith and democracy across the Atlantic. As they joined army platoons in occupying Germany, they singled out the defeated nation as the prime European territory for a new American-led, Christian and democratic world order that could thwart any totalitarian threat. Throughout these efforts, however, American Protestants realized they had come to dramatically different conclusions about how to rebuild Europe out of the ruins of war. Their diverging visions ultimately sparked a spiritual struggle for the continent and leadership of the postwar world. All the while, European Protestants began to sharply protest America’s spiritual advance. Faced by this challenge, a growing number of ecumenical Protestants rethought their efforts to build God’s kingdom through America’s global strength. Forsaking their wartime nationalism, they championed a new theology of global peace, reconciliation, and justice. A fresh wave of Protestant cold warriors surged forward, however, to retake their nation and promote a theology of liberty and anti-communism across the Atlantic. The spiritual struggle for Europe thus left American Protestants deeply divided and at odds over their global mission. It ultimately forged competing visions of global engagement that transformed the United States, diplomacy, and politics in the Cold War and beyond.
Collaborative Ethnography
Authors: Lassiter Luke Eric 
Published: April 2021

AbstractIn the past few decades, new forms of collaborative ethnography have continued to expand and grow. Though collaborative ethnography arguably has a long tradition in ethnographic fieldwork, developments surrounding, among other things, the explicit co-conceptualization and co-theorization of collaborative inquiry; the diverse and dynamic co-commitments of practice (be they moral, ethical, political, or otherwise); and the joint productions of ethnographic forms (be they texts, exhibits, actions, etc.) have yielded new opportunities for collaborative research and action. With this in mind, this chapter explores how recent forms of collaborative ethnography are helping to chart more critical and complex understandings of both collaboration and collaborative research in field-based disciplines such as anthropology, folklore, and ethnomusicology.
Preacher Woman
Authors: Lauve-Moon Katie 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
Chapter 7 presents instances in which fellow church staff members fail to see or understand fully the effects of gender structure and, therefore, often simultaneously function as allies as well as additional barriers in the pursuit of gender equality within congregations. This chapter also examines the particular standpoint of women pastors and how their experiences of exclusion and marginalization inform their social justice–oriented and riskier approaches to their jobs as compared to men pastors. While these approaches are often evaluated positively by social justice–minded congregants, some congregants described women pastors’ leadership approaches as “agenda driven” or “biased.” While this was not a key barrier in the context of this study, it may serve as a barrier in less social justice–oriented congregations. Finally, the chapter examines barriers to feminist initiatives that occur on the congregational level and emphasizes the importance of listening to the voices of women.
The benefits of free speech and expression
Authors: Sorabji Richard 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
Chapter 2 argues that John Stuart Mill supported free speech on the grounds of the beneficial effects it can have, in Chapter 2 of his On Liberty of 1859. But the history in chapter 1 suggests that this has been a recurrent view through the ages. If free speech is valued for its benefits, speech that frustrates those benefits suggests a clear boundary on free speech which should appeal voluntarily to its supporters. Their voluntary self-restraint in speech should normally be better than legal constraint for keeping speech beneficial. But self-restraint is not the only preserver of benefits. Speech that opens ears, to take an expression of Gandhi’s—in his case, the ears of powerful opponents—is also a preserver of benefits.
Hutterites in Moravia
Authors: Chung-Kim Esther 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
The Hutterites endured generations of persecution, forced migration, as well as loss of property and legal recourse often resulting in desperate poverty. Although plagued by internal conflicts from the beginning, they represented the most radical and most creative form of communal support in the sixteenth century. While religion was the reason for their suffering, it was also the reason for their resilience. As recorded in The Chronicle, Hutterites highlighted their trials and tribulations, as well as their successful reconciliation with other factions. Their leaders, such as Jacob Hutter, Peter Riedemann, and Peter Walpot provided the theological rationale for the practice of the community of goods, which required the total sharing of goods to care for the entire community. The surrender of all temporal goods was a requirement to join the Hutterite colonies (Bruderhof). This practice of communal property became the central marker of Hutterite piety as designated leaders managed the collective resources to alleviate the needs of their community.
Hume’s Dynamic Coordination and International Law
Authors: Pavel Carmen E. 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
At the heart of the tension between state autonomy and international law is the question of whether states should willingly restrict their freedom of action for the sake of international security, human rights, trade, communication, and the environment. David Hume offers surprising insights to answer this question. He argued that the same interests in cooperation arise among individuals and states, and that their interactions should be regulated by the same principles. Drawing on his model of dynamic coordination, the chapter reconstructs the Humean case for developing international law into a more robust legal system, and also highlights the limitation of Hume’s account of justice for such a reconstructive project. Hume’s lessons are enduring: the community of states must strengthen the essential features of international law, such as nonoptional rules that articulate a moral minimum, courts with compulsory jurisdiction, and stronger mechanisms of enforcement.
The Automation of Authority: Discrepancies with Jus Ad Bellum Principles
Authors: Phillips Donovan 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
This chapter considers how the adoption of autonomous weapons systems (AWS) may affect jus ad bellum principles of warfare. In particular, it focuses on the use of AWS in non-international armed conflicts (NIAC). Given the proliferation of NIAC, the development and use of AWS will most likely be attuned to this specific theater of war. As warfare waged by modernized liberal democracies (those most likely to develop and employ AWS at present) increasingly moves toward a model of individualized warfare, how, if at all, will the principles by which we measure the justness of the commencement of such hostilities be affected by the introduction of AWS, and how will such hostilities stack up to current legal agreements surrounding their more traditional engagement? This chapter claims that such considerations give us reason to question the moral and legal necessity of ad bellum proper authority.
Conclusion
Authors: Jenkins Kathleen E. 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
This concluding chapter argues that the stories in this book are about people working to strengthen family relationships, but that in many cases they also represent shared discovery of commitment to an ethic of care for those outside of their intimate circles. It stresses how most respondents recognized their privilege and expressed a desire for their Camino to translate to daily interactions with distant others and contemplation of larger social problems. At the same time, distancing memories may undermine such effects. This chapter suggests that respondents’ stories, taken as a whole, push us to think more deeply about the social forces that stand in the way of positive relational outcomes from shared transformational travel. The conclusion moves beyond the Camino, identifying efforts to promote inclusivity in opportunities for travel for transformation in North America and highlighting differences in access to spiritual practices in the United States that could foster relational intimacy. It stresses efforts to build opportunities for travel for transformation with the potential to promote understanding of social inequities and injustices.
The Law of Nature
Authors: Banner Stuart 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
This chapter explores how natural law worked in the legal system of the 18th and 19th centuries. It discusses how lawyers believed natural law could be discerned, how natural law related to positive law, why natural law seemed so plausible, how natural law figured in legal education, and how natural law was used in practice. Natural law was understood to consist of general principles found in nature, like the principles we call “scientific” laws today. They formed a backdrop against which positive law was enacted and interpreted. These general principles guided courts’ decisions where positive law did not yield a clear answer.
The French grand piano
Authors: Adelson Robert 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
The first pianos, built by Cristofori in Florence near the turn of the eighteenth century, were already ‘grand’ pianos, their shape derived from that of the harpsichord. The invention gradually began to spread across the continent, and by the mid-1780s grand pianos were common instruments in London. This pan-European development stands in stark contrast to the grand piano’s reception in France, where the harpsichord reigned supreme. Indeed, until the 1760s, the piano—regardless of its size or shape—was almost completely absent from the French musical scene, and it was not until around 1810 that the grand piano became a frequently used instrument in France. Without a sonorous instrument capable of projecting an interesting palette of nuanced effects in a moderate to large space, it was difficult to develop an independent repertoire for the piano. The eventual adoption of the grand piano in France was largely due to the efforts of the Erard brothers, who were familiar with this type of instrument from their contacts with the Silbermanns in Strasbourg and English builders in London. The Erard grand piano responded to an increasing desire on the part of French musicians for pianos with a stronger tone, undoubtedly to better balance other string and wind instruments which were also evolving towards more sonorous models.
Introduction
Authors: Gronewoller Brian 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
The Introduction orients readers to the book in three ways. It begins by introducing Augustine’s training in rhetoric and the manner in which scholarship has treated Augustine’s use of concepts from that field. It then presents a summary of the chapters, detailing how Part I (Chapters 1–2) and Part II (Chapters 3–5) fit together to form the book’s argument. Finally, it concludes by noting two limitations of this study.
Jean Morély’s Assault on Calvinist Ecclesiology
Authors: Bruening Michael W. 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
In 1562, Jean Morély published a book that advocated local control over the Reformed churches and challenged the Calvinists’ ideas about religious authority. The Calvinists had established a presbyterian-synodal model, which placed religious authority in the hands of the pastors, consistories, and national synods. Morély argued that such authority should lie instead with the membership of each local church. Morély attracted followers in the Paris and Orléans regions, and other churches around France adopted practices he recommended. Morély was supported initially by Odet and Gaspard de Coligny, and Jeanne d’Albret hired him as tutor to the future King Henri IV. Beza and Antoine de Chandieu worked hard to stop Morély, but he continued to attract followers, including Petrus Ramus. After St. Bartholomew’s Day, Pierre Charpentier published a book that identified several “God-fearing ministers,” many of whom were associated with Morély, who detested the Beza and the Calvinists.
