Affects
Authors: Riccardi Mattia 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
This chapter is concerned with affects. It argues that Nietzsche conceives of affects as having a distinct phenomenology, a somatic dimension consisting in their immediate effect on the motor system, and a (positively or negatively) valenced representational content. After discussing the nature of affects, the chapter turns to consider the work of Chris Fowles and Peter Poellner on this subject. It registers its agreement with the reading of Nietzsche’s view on affects recently put forward by Fowles, albeit with a minor modification. However, it argues that the alternative account proposed by Poellner fails to capture Nietzsche’s own position. Finally, it offers a preliminary sketch of how, according to Nietzsche, drives and affects are supposed to work together.
The Surface Revealed
Authors: Riccardi Mattia 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
This chapter works out some of the key features of the notion of consciousness usually discussed by Nietzsche (most notably, in aphorism 354 of The Gay Science). Given such features (which include reflexivity, dependence on language and communication, and higher-order nature), it is argued that this notion of consciousness corresponds to reflective consciousness, i.e. the capacity for verbally articulated thought, the emergence of which is ultimately explained as a by-product of linguistic communication. The chapter shows how Nietzsche’s picture of reflective consciousness develops from Daybreak to Gay Science. Finally, it explores the link that Nietzsche draws between the emergence of consciousness and that of mind-reading capacities.
Reciprocity in Chinese Traditions
Authors: Barbalet Jack 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Chapter 3 explores the possibility of locating principles underlying guanxi in classical Chinese traditions. First, the basis and nature of ‘reciprocity’ in Chinese culture is examined through analysis of the notions of bao and shu, and also renqing. It is shown that the concept of bao, drawn from different literary and institutional settings, is not source to a singular notion of reciprocity. It is also shown that the concept of shu relates to cognitive, affective, and imaginative practices, of role-taking, rather than to the more concrete enactments of exchange. The concept of renqing, widely regarded as both derived from the Confucian tradition and centrally important for guanxi, is shown to relate to everyday practices about which Confucius was uninterested, and which do not require traditional sanction. In positive terms, the chapter clears the ground in order to establish a distinctive account of the secular and self-generating practices of guanxi.
Trust in Guanxi
Authors: Barbalet Jack 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Trust is widely considered a core element of guanxi. What are less frequently appreciated, though, are the culturally distinctive differences regarding the notion of trust in English-language and Chinese-language accounts, and the consequences of these differences for analysis of guanxi. In English, the default notion of trust is trustfulness, whereas in Chinese it is trustworthiness. This latter notion introduces an element of public assessment in the meaning of the term, with significant consequences for the Chinese notion of trust, which the chapter goes on to explore. The relevance of trust for networks, including guanxi networks, and the significance of influence and information in network ties and their relations with trust are considerations which run through the chapter. It is shown that, while social solidarity may arise through trust, this is an inadequate basis on which to explain guanxi solidarity.
Guanxi, Three Forms or One
Authors: Barbalet Jack 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
A consensus holds that guanxi has three forms—family, friendship and acquaintance guanxi—distinguished by the strength of obligation. It is also assumed that through fictive kinship, friendship and family guanxi may merge. The chapter shows that kinship obligations and guanxi obligations are fundamentally dissimilar, thus the notion of family guanxi is redundant, and that pseudo-family ties do not provide access to kin relations but affirm the distinction between family and friendship ties. Because guanxi is cultivated by its participants, friendship guanxi and acquaintance guanxi are not distinct forms but rather different stages of guanxi formation. In considering the sources of these confusions the chapter goes on to discuss problems arising from employment of common-language terms in sociological analysis, untested assumptions concerning Chinese culture, and methodological commitments which privilege latent structures of strong ties. It is shown that the strength of guanxi ties, strategically pursued by participants, fluctuate through agentic practices.
The 1641 Rebellion and Ireland’s Contested Pasts
Authors: Canny Nicholas 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
The 1641 rebellion elicited three distinct historical narratives. The first, put most cogently by John Temple, held that the government had engaged on a reform programme to benefit both natives and newcomers, until the Irish, guided by their priests, attempted to massacre the entire Protestant population, and would have succeeded but for providential intervention. Old English authors countered by acknowledging that the Gaelic Irish had attacked the settlers, but only because they had been treated unjustly by officials. They denied that a massacre had ensued, and argued that the Old English themselves had resorted to arms only to defend their patrimonies and their king from Puritan enemies in both Britain and Ireland. The third response, formulated in vernacular verse, detailed the mistreatment of Gaelic lords, explained how they had been forced to defend themselves, lamented the destruction that ensued when Cromwell invaded, and left their redemption to Providence.
Enlightenment Historians of Ireland and their Critics
Authors: Canny Nicholas 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Elite Catholics, who accepted Hanoverian rulers as legitimate, believed that Enlightenment historiography would show the Penal Laws to be unreasonable, and would necessitate a re-definition of the Irish political nation. When Hume, whom these elite members esteemed, endorsed Temple’s interpretation of the 1641 rebellion, they commissioned a philosophical history for Ireland to be written by Thomas Leland, a Protestant divine. Leland failed to meet the expectations of his sponsors by concluding, after a close study of early modern events, that a single Irish political nation would exist only when Catholics renounced allegiance to the Pope. Failure to reach political consensus was largely irrelevant because popular histories showed that concessions to elite Catholics would not have assuaged popular discontent. Moreover, urban radicals, notably Mathew Carey, contended that Enlightenment thinking suggested that a multi-denominational Irish nation could be imagined only in the context of an independent Irish Republic.
Re-Imagining Ireland’s Early Modern Past during the Later Nineteenth Century
Authors: Canny Nicholas 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
The Great Famine provided a stimulus to the writing of history, not least because it eroded the credibility both of British rule in Ireland, and of Irish landowners. The new interpretations can be characterized as follows. The authors of a Catholic narrative wanted the Catholic nation that had emerged from suffering to be treated as an equal with the English and Scottish nations within a shared British monarchy. Militant nationalist historians cherished memories of Catholic sufferings in the hope that these would foment popular ‘disaffection’ and further revolutionary action. Moderate Unionist historians acknowledged the unjust treatment of the Irish in the past and detailed this to encourage the present government to promote reform that would elicit loyalty. Hard-line Unionist historians also faulted past British rule. Their concern, however, was that governments had not stuck rigidly to stern measures that would have produced stability. They believed that stability might still be achieved if the present government avoided conciliation.
Female and Male Mate Choice:
Authors: Schlupp Ingo 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Females choose mating partners for three main reasons: direct benefits, indirect benefits, and compatibility, either genetic or social. In this chapter I am not trying to look at all angles of mate choice, but to give a short overview of female choice to provide a basis for a comparison with male choice. This will highlight what studies are needed to reach a more complete picture of sexual selection. I would summarize the chapter like this: it’s the ecology, stupid.
What Males Choose: Differences in Female Quality
Authors: Schlupp Ingo 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
In female choice, differences in male quality are very important. Males display to females to provide information often via costly ornaments. Females also differ in quality, but what they display to males is less clear. Also, how males evaluate differences in female quality is not well understood. From the literature on male mate choice one might conclude that female fecundity is the most important feature a female can display to a choosy male, but I argue that there must be many more features of females that are important in male mate choice, maybe even indirect benefits.
Male Investment and Male Choice
Authors: Schlupp Ingo 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
In this short chapter I revisit the role that male investment might play in the evolution of male mate choice. Simply put, one might expect with more male investment into reproduction, they may be more selective about with whom they mate. If the male investment is larger than the female investment sex roles are expected to flip. This is, however, not common. But even if males almost never invest as much or more than females, in many species they do invest somewhat, or even heavily. Should this lead to choosiness in males? I will provide a few examples where choosiness may be linked to investment in males.
Ornaments in Females
Authors: Schlupp Ingo 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
In this chapter I want to explore the role of ornamental traits in females. They pose a bit of a conundrum, as they are not really predicted to exist—at least until recently. From a simple sexual selection point of view, female ornaments should be selected against by males because inconspicuous females suffer less predation and are more likely to care for their offspring successfully. Yet, countless species show ornaments in females. Are they adaptations of some kind or just the side effect of a genetic correlation? And what information do female ornaments convey to males?
Female–Female Competition
Authors: Schlupp Ingo 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
There is no disagreement that males compete over access to reproductive opportunities. This competition can be covert or take the form of physical fights, which are easily observed in many species. Males take considerable risks when they fight, presumably because the price—access to reproduction—is so high. But what about females? They also often compete for males, but in less risky ways. They also seem to compete less directly for individual males, but more indirectly for resources that males can provide. Nonetheless, female competition is more important in shaping sexual selection than previously thought.
Synthesis and Outlook
Authors: Schlupp Ingo 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
In this final chapter I want to briefly recap what I presented in the previous chapters and provide a few ideas on what might be done in the future to move the field forward. All three factors I discussed as relevant in male mate choice—male investment in reproduction, sex ratios, and variability in partner quality—are still emerging fields in sexual selection research and need more theoretical and empirical work. I suggest that variability in female quality is more important and more complex than currently known. The same is true for sex ratios. On the other hand, I suggest that sheer investment in gametes may be a little less important than currently assumed. Most importantly we need to explore the interactions of these three pathways to male mate choice. Female competition and also female ornamentation are still somewhat enigmatic and both topics are likely to grow in importance for our understanding of sexual selection. I think considering male and female choice together, as well as female and male competition will ultimately provide a more complete picture of Darwinian sexual selection.
Introduction
Authors: Wilcox Vanda 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Italy’s First World War is usually remembered and studied as a national conflict from 1915 to 1918. Instead, this book proposes an imperial framework to examine Italian aims, policies, and actions from 1911 to 1923. In particular, it traces four key strands through this period: Italy’s imperial and colonial aims in its wars against the Ottoman Empire and Austria-Hungary; combat operations within its colonies; the global war effort including Italian emigrants around the world; and the Italian racial and colonial mentalities which underpinned these war efforts. After summarizing the key historiographical debates, particularly over liberal and fascist foreign policy and imperialism, this chapter outlines the structure and organization of the book.
Post-war Settlements in the Adriatic and the Balkans
Authors: Wilcox Vanda 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
The rejection of the Italian demand for Fiume led to much anger in Italy; interventionist poet Gabriele D’Annunzio spoke of a ‘mutilated victory’. Capitalizing on nationalist fury he independently led a small group to seize the city directly, creating serious tensions with Yugoslavia. Italian military occupations in neighbouring areas of Dalmatia sought to lay foundations for Italian possession but were unpopular with locals; Italian forces showed signs of growing radical nationalism. By the end of 1920 Italy had been forced to renounce most of its claims and D’Annunzio was forced out of Fiume. Further south in Albania Italy hoped to create a long-lasting protectorate building on its wartime occupation, but here too its colonial approach was unpopular and by August 1920 it had to admit its failure.
Africa and the Eastern Mediterranean After the War
Authors: Wilcox Vanda 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Italy joined the Allies in sending troops to occupy the defeated Ottoman Empire; a detachment went to Constantinople while a larger Expeditionary Force, commanded from the Dodecanese islands, moved into Antalya and the surrounding region where Italy hoped to create a lasting Eastern Mediterranean sphere of influence or even perhaps a League of Nations Mandate. Ultimately, the Treaty of Sèvres was a disappointment, offering no guarantees in Asia Minor; since Italy was both unwilling and unable to fight against Atatürk’s forces to secure its goals in Turkey, it was forced to withdraw altogether by 1923, though it kept hold of the Dodecanese. In Libya, having lost functional control of the interior, Italy had few options but to concede considerable power to Sanussiya brotherhood and others. It also granted local constitutions in 1919, creating a new form of colonial citizenship there. Far from expanding it, the war had left Italy’s empire weakened.
Active European Union Influence
Authors: Lenz Tobias 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
This chapter traces the European Union’s active influence on the establishment of the Tribunal of the Southern African Development Community in 2005—a carbon copy of the European Court of Justice. The Tribunal’s creation is an inferentially powerful case to study active EU influence because it constitutes a least likely case from the perspective of existing explanations of dispute settlement design. Through a detailed process tracing exercise that reconstructs the collective preferences and institutional strategies of national governments and the process of international bargaining, it shows how the European Union, through its threat to withdraw funding from SADC, induced the creation of the SADC Tribunal. In the absence of EU influence, the chapter concludes, the Tribunal would not have been established; active EU influence made a counterfactual difference to SADC’s institutionalization.
Introduction
Authors: Vannier Marion 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
The introductory chapter lays out the puzzle surrounding life without the possibility of parole (LWOP). LWOP holds a unique place in the landscape of extreme forms of punishment. It stands at the intersection between the death penalty and long-term imprisonment. While recognized as being particularly cruel since at least Beccaria, relatively few empirical studies have focused on LWOP’S extreme severity. Despite growing awareness and evidence of LWOP’S cruelty, the punishment has become a rather ordinary practice in the American sentencing toolkit. The expansion and proliferation of LWOP in America stands in sharp contrast with the rest of the world where the punishment is deemed reprehensible. LWOP’S growth in the United States is particularly remarkable for the apparent dispassion with which the American public and various penal state actors have embraced and accepted such a practice. Other than prisoners-led organizations, like The Other Death Penalty Project, there are very few strong and vocal activist groups campaigning against the punishment. By contrast, strong and vocal groups have campaigned against prison overcrowding and death sentences. While sharing features with both imprisonment and the death penalty, LWOP’S extreme severity has not triggered similar attention and reaction. Instead, the punishment has even been actively promoted by a number of criminal justice actors including those who traditionally challenge degrading and inhumane treatments. This book investigates how, using the development of LWOP in the Californian death penalty context as an example, extreme forms of imprisonment can become normalized.
Campaigning for LWOP
Authors: Vannier Marion 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Chapter 2 explores the broader political sphere and focuses on the strategies developed by two of the most vocal organizations involved in the Savings Accountability and Full Enforcement (SAFE) Campaign of 2012 in California (hereinafter SAFE Campaign): The ‘American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California’ (ACLU-NC) and ‘Death Penalty Focus’ (DPF). This chapter of the book combines an analysis of pamphlets, flyers, and public discourses, with a narrative informed by interviews with some of the Campaign’s most vocal activists. The politics of abolition in the public sphere are characterized by a progressive instrumentalization of LWOP’s severity that is shaped by penal populist paradigm shifts and heightened fiscal concerns.
Settling and Pleading for LWOP
Authors: Vannier Marion 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
In courtrooms, defence attorneys, too, rely on LWOP to avoid a death sentence for their client. In examining sentencing pathways, Chapter 3 finds that very little space is given to prosecutors, lawyers, and judges and jurors to discuss or debate, evaluate, and review the severity of LWOP. In part, this has to do with how the sentencing mechanisms—such as plea bargaining, mandatory application, and proportionality review—detach the offender, in particular his or her level of culpability, from the punishment. This chapter triangulates textual analysis of criminal and sentencing laws in California and interviews with prosecutors and defence lawyers. It also relies on a small statistical component of data on LWOP and death sentences collected from two district attorney’s offices (Alameda and Los Angeles).
Prisoners’ Experiences of LWOP
Authors: Vannier Marion 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Chapter 4 sheds light on the punishment’s extreme severity. It is commonly assumed that LWOP differs from traditional death sentences because it preserves prisoners’ lives. Drawing on the 299 letters written by men and women serving LWOP in California, this chapter reveals other meanings of death, complicating conventional categorizations of punishments. Prisoners’ testimonies point to the certainty of dying behind bars as well as to the concomitant impossibility to quantify the time left to serve. Death also takes on a more embodied dimension, provoked by ageing and diseased bodies, as well as through the removal of parenthood and parenting. Death under LWOP is characterized by an indifference for prisoners’ human capacity to change.
Principles of Materials Characterization and Metrology
Authors: Krishnan Kannan M. 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Characterization enables a microscopic understanding of the fundamental properties of materials (Science) to predict their macroscopic behavior (Engineering). With this focus, the book presents a comprehensive discussion of the principles of materials characterization and metrology. Characterization techniques are introduced through elementary concepts of bonding, electronic structure of molecules and solids, and the arrangement of atoms in crystals. Then, the range of electrons, photons, ions, neutrons and scanning probes, used in characterization, including their generation and related beam-solid interactions that determine or limit their use, are presented. This is followed by ion-scattering methods, optics, optical diffraction, microscopy, and ellipsometry. Generalization of Fraunhofer diffraction to scattering by a three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in crystals, leads to X-ray, electron, and neutron diffraction methods, both from surfaces and the bulk. Discussion of transmission and analytical electron microscopy, including recent developments, is followed by chapters on scanning electron microscopy and scanning probe microscopies. It concludes with elaborate tables to provide a convenient and easily accessible way of summarizing the key points, features, and inter-relatedness of the different spectroscopy, diffraction, and imaging techniques presented throughout. The book uniquely combines a discussion of the physical principles and practical application of these characterization techniques to explain and illustrate the fundamental properties of a wide range of materials in a tool-based approach. Based on forty years of teaching and research, and including worked examples, test your knowledge questions, and exercises, the target readership of the book is wide, for it is expected to appeal to the teaching of undergraduate and graduate students, and to post-docs, in multiple disciplines of science, engineering, biology and art conservation, and to professionals in industry.
