The Needs-to-Goals Gap Framework
Authors: De Los Reyes Andres 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Chapter 18 of Discrepant Results in Mental Health Research describes the needs-to-goals gap framework—an extension of the operations triad model that connects discrepant results to work in implementation science. In particular, the needs-to-goals gap framework focuses on what professionals ought to consider when using converging and discrepant results to make decisions relevant to the delivery of mental health services. Along these lines, the chapter describes the difference between assessments that focus on assessing clients’ needs and understanding or setting the goals of services. The chapter also connects these two assessments to core features of the services clients receive and the concepts that underlie the operations triad model. The chapter closes with open questions relevant to work informed by the needs-to-goals gap framework.
Reading the NA through the Latin Literary Past
Authors: DiGiulio Scott J. 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter situates the NA within Roman prose literature and explores the intertextual relationships that Aulus Gellius constructs between the NA and earlier imperial authors. After exploring Gellius’ use of Pliny the Elder to illustrate his imitative technique, it examines another major influence, Pliny the Younger. Gellius alludes to Pliny’s programmatic letter on brevity (Ep. 1.20), which refashions arguments of the latter’s teacher Quintilian. Gellius in turn reworks the letter (NA 1.15), redeploying the same set of passages quoted by Pliny to expound his own theory of brevity and style. A final case study is Gellius’ single direct citation of Seneca the Younger’s Epistulae Morales (NA 12.2), in which he attacks the philosopher’s style and critical judgments. His arguments are in dialogue with Quintilian and Tacitus, incorporating dominant strands of literary criticism and revealing him to be a keen observer of imperial literary critical trends.
Approaching a Miscellanistic Work from the Outside In
Authors: DiGiulio Scott J. 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Using the work of Gérard Genette on paratextuality, this chapter investigates the external devices with which Aulus Gellius frames the text of the Noctes Atticae. The title calls attention to both the time and place of composition, inviting the reader to interpret the text with these elements in mind. This chapter then illustrates this method of “chronotopic reading” (following Bakhtin) through several episodes (2.22, 9.7, 18.2, 18.13, 19.1) in which space and time play central roles. Additionally, Gellius appends a table of contents to his Preface; this chapter surveys other extant examples (Pliny the Elder, Scribonius Largus, Columella, Frontinus, Pliny the Younger) to highlight the distinctiveness of Gellius’ paratext. His table of contents is offered as a reference tool, but dissonances between the table of contents and the contents themselves force a reader to reconcile the two: even this aid to the reader represents a test of critical reading practice.
Segregation, 1954–1962
Authors: Harris Matthew L. 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter analyzes how church leaders responded to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Brown v. Board of Education (1954), which desegregated public schools. While the church didn’t have an official policy on segregation, some White Latter-day Saints refused to worship with Black Latter-day Saints. In addition, church leaders counseled members to avoid associating with Black people, because they feared interracial marriage. This chapter also provides insight into why some church-owned businesses refused to patronize Black people, which angered liberal members, as well as the NAACP. And it evaluates how a group of Mormon intellectuals called “the Swearing Elders” forced LDS leaders to reckon with the wrongness of the ban. Lowell Bennion, a respected LDS religion teacher, and Sterling McMurrin, a well-known philosophy professor at the University of Utah, were two of the church’s most vociferous critics, which resulted in the church targeting them for sanction.
Investigations and Protests, 1968–1970
Authors: Harris Matthew L. 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter discusses how the federal government forced BYU to comply with the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by threatening to prohibit students from using the GI bill at the Mormon university. It also probes how BYU and its sponsoring church managed public relations when dozens of universities across the Intermountain West boycotted BYU sports teams. And it explores Hugh Brown’s efforts to ordain Monroe Fleming, a Black Latter-day Saint, to the priesthood. This was Brown’s attempt to assuage critics and to improve the church’s public image. As this chapter shows, Brown’s efforts failed and the church issued a statement in 1969 reaffirming the ban as church doctrine.
Scholastics, Humanists, and Anti-Aristotelians
Authors: Svensson Manfred 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Chapter 1 is mainly devoted to the intellectual context and background to our commentators: Protestant commentaries from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries primarily reflect the influence of humanist translations and techniques, but the medieval background is sometimes subtly and sometimes explicitly present. This is not only true for a great thirteenth-century commentator like Aquinas, but also for the Byzantine commentators of the previous century. Protestants thus engage with a continuous tradition of Christian commentary that had been developing since the twelfth century. From that tradition and its Renaissance variations, they take not only specific interpretations of Aristotle, but also the different types of commentary (some expository, some organized around disputed questions, etc.). This chapter introduces the commentators in light of this background.
The Political Economy of Climate Finance Effectiveness in Developing Countries
Authors: Purdon Mark 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This book contributes to debates about the effectiveness of climate finance instruments for engaging developing countries on climate change mitigation. It is based on empirical investigation of the effectiveness and implementation of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) as well as Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) in Tanzania, Uganda, and Moldova over a 10-year period from 2008 to 2018. While the CDM emerged as the main climate finance instrument for engaging developing countries under the Kyoto Protocol, the carbon market approach it embodied would largely be replaced by a new array of climate finance instruments based on climate funds. It is argued that this is part of a broader shift away from liberal environmentalism since the 2008 global financial crisis toward a new set of global environmental norms described as developmental environmentalism. The main argument advanced in the book is that despite this shift in global environmental norms, differences in state development policy paradigms and development interests explain enduring patterns of CDM, REDD+, and NAMA effectiveness and implementation in Tanzania, Uganda, and Moldova over the period investigated. All three climate finance instruments were consistently more effectively implemented in Uganda and Moldova than Tanzania, despite differences in state capacity between East Africa and a country of former Soviet Union. Such findings might inform the design of international and transnational efforts to engage developing countries on climate change mitigation by emphasizing the importance that needs to be accorded to domestic politics, particularly the state.
Sounding Francophone Caribbean Poetics
Authors: Munro Martin 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The chapter explores the way sound is a key marker of Caribbean being. It analyzes poetry of the region, beginning with the early nineteenth century works anthologized in Poetry of Haitian Independence, a bilingual volume that gathers many forgotten and neglected poems written between 1804 and the late 1840s. The chapter explores the various ways in which sounds are used by the poets as the new nation sought to assert itself on its own terms and create a sense of unity and common purpose in a land torn apart by a long period of war and by the legacies of colonialism and slavery. By reading and listening to the poems in this way, the reader gains a sense of the importance of sounds to the written form, and by extension to the broader culture, in ways that confirm that sound was a vital element in forming early Caribbean subjectivities.
Climate Obstruction in Poland
Authors: Szulecki Kacper , Maltby Tomas , Szulecka Julia 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Poland is known for its climate scepticism and denial throughout the 1990s and 2000s. Despite its recent rapid deployment of renewable energy sources, Poland remains Europe’s most coal-dependent economy. Since 2004, consecutive governments have been ‘pulling the brake’ on the European Union’s more ambitious climate policy initiatives and decarbonization targets. There are recent signs of changing societal attitudes, but the country is alone among EU nations in lacking a net zero emissions target or a coal power phase-out date. This situation has been created and perpetuated by a coalition of governmental institutions, agencies, state-owned energy companies, and utilities that constitute a governmental–industrial complex (GIC). While the GIC has moderated its discourse and policies, it continues to promote ‘silver bullet’ technologies such as ‘clean’ coal and new nuclear power plants. Poland’s commitment to a just, gradual energy transition is a climate imposter tactic, part of an overarching strategy of delay.
Climate Obstruction in Italy
Authors: Grasso Marco , Levantesi Stella , Beqja Serena 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter investigates climate obstruction in Italy since the 1990s. While the country’s institutional actors were initially indifferent to climate change, non-institutional obstruction disputed both its existence and its anthropogenic origin. More sophisticated forms of denial later developed into outright obstruction. Today, the most prominent climate obstructionists are part of a right-wing galaxy backed by Italian oil and gas companies, their lobby groups, and corporate and institutional allies, aided significantly by the Italian media. These actors have adopted multiple strategies and tactics to obstruct climate action, from anti-scientific and conspiracy narratives to scare tactics such as weaponizing energy insecurity to blatant misinformation campaigns. The discursive framings of climate obstruction evolved from trumpeting cherry-picked climate scenarios instrumental in defending inaction to discourses of delay, including technological optimism, fossil fuel solutionism, and redirecting responsibility from industry and institutional agents to consumers and individuals, as well as greenwashing tactics.
Capturing News, Capturing Democracy
Authors: Wright Kate , Scott Martin , Bunce Mel 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
How did the Trump administration capture one of the world’s most important public service news networks? This book uses rare interviews and an analysis of private correspondence and internal documents to explain why and how Voice of America (VOA) became intensely politicized from 2020 to 2021. It analyzes how political appointees, White House officials, and right-wing media influenced VOA—changing its reporting of the Black Lives Matter movement, the presidential election, and its contested aftermath. Trump allies took control of the network’s financial and human resources, dominated its governance structures, and instigated intimidating investigations into journalistic bias. Some journalists tried to resist, but others were too exhausted and fearful, particularly those in the organization’s language services. The book puts these events in historical and international context—and develops a new analytical framework for understanding government capture and its connection to broader processes of democratic backsliding. It argues that there is currently too little to prevent a future US administration with authoritarian tendencies from capturing VOA and converting it into a major domestic news organization. For this reason, it uses empirical research to recommend practical ways of protecting the network and other international public service media better in future.
Foundations for Leadership
Authors: Rose Deondra 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Chapter 7 draws on in-depth interviews with thirteen Black political elites including sitting members of Congress, state legislators, and former elected officials to examine the role that HBCUs have played in fostering the development of Black elected officials. HBCUs have educated 40 percent of Black members currently serving in the US Congress, and HBCU alumni are similarly well represented among Black elected officials at all levels of government, including state and local legislative offices and the courts. As the discussions with Black political elites presented in this chapter show, beyond promoting mass-level political engagement, HBCUs provide valuable educational experiences, programming, and networks that can inspire their students to embark on careers in public life.
From Tudor to Stuart
Authors: Doran Susan 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Based on letters, state papers, drama, poetry, and material objects, this book tells the story of the troubled accession and exciting first decade of James I’s reign. After a chapter on Elizabeth I’s death, funeral, and afterlife, the book turns to the new king, first his reign in Scotland and afterwards his first year in England. These chapters detail the problems that he initially faced: the legacy of his predecessor’s reign, questions about his legitimacy, plots in England, and unrest in Ireland. Overall, this section of the book challenges the traditional assumption that James’s accession was smooth, seeing it instead as a very bumpy ride. The succeeding chapters assess the extent of change that occurred in national political life and royal policies by examining how far the establishment of a new Stuart dynasty resulted in fresh personnel in power, alterations in monarchical institutions, shifts in political culture, and a different direction in governmental policies. The book offers a fresh look at James and his wife Anna, providing some new interpretations of their characters and qualities. Other personalities are not neglected, whether Sir Walter Ralegh, Sir Robert Cecil, Henry Howard, earl of Northampton, or the Scots who filled James’s inner court. The book also brings to life national events and politics of the early seventeenth century, including the 1605 Gunpowder Plot, the establishment of Jamestown in Virginia, the plantations in Ulster, James’s troubles with parliament, and his doomed attempt to bring about union with Scotland.
A King in Waiting
Authors: Doran Susan 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
James was a political veteran when he became king of England, having been crowned king of Scotland in July 1567 at the age of thirteen months. In 1578, James was declared of age, but before 1585 he confronted attempted coups from different noble factions and challenges to his authority from the Kirk. Nonetheless, Scotland was stable by the time he left for England in April 1603. James’s marriage to Anna of Denmark gave him an enhanced international profile and opportunities for spectacles to enhance royal authority and promote his claim to the English succession. Generally James promoted his image and policies through his writings. As well as an author, James was a patron of the arts, especially music and poetry.
Elizabeth’s Legacy
Authors: Doran Susan 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Elizabeth’s legacy was far from golden. Seventeen years of warfare, unfavourable economic conditions, and unpopular royal policies created a perfect storm of political tensions, social unrest, and religious unease. At her death, the queen left James a divided and disaffected realm. At his accession, the new king was bombarded with petitions requesting redress of grievances and reforms. In early 1603, James seemed willing to listen to his new subjects’ grievances and a readiness to act on them, but in the end those who hoped for changes, whether in Church or state, were to be disappointed.
Three Royal Performances
Authors: Doran Susan 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
During his first year as king of England, James self-consciously performed on the stage of state and gave three major public performances, all of which reflected not only English conventions and rituals but also his own distinctive style and character. The first performance was in absentia at the planned executions of three of the Bye and Main plotters; the second was at the Hampton Court Conference summoned to settle differences between the English bishops and their critics; and the third was the magnificent royal entry into London on the eve of the opening of his first parliament.
The Habsburgs and the Dutch
Authors: Doran Susan 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
All participants in the ongoing war in the Low Countries courted James in 1603. After hard bargaining, James signed a treaty with the Habsburgs, in August 1604. Thereafter, James had to find ways to retain the friendship of France and the United Provinces, yet not rupture the newly formed peace. As he had predicted, a peace treaty between the United Provinces and Spain proved impossible to negotiate, but English and French diplomats mediated a truce in 1609. The following year, a new war threatened to erupt over the disputed claims to Jülich-Cleves. Here, James intervened alongside the French. In his foreign policy, James was no idealist despite his cultivated image as a peacemaker. On the contrary, he was essentially a pragmatist and, as such, served England’s interests well.
Dependent case and the sometimes independence of ergativity and Differential Object Marking
Authors: Baker Mark C. 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Dependent case theory claims that ergative case and accusative case are both assigned when one NP c-commands another NP in the same domain. This suggests that, in languages with both cases, the subject is ergative if and only if the object is accusative. This is false for Hindi, where ergative case depends on the Aspect of the clause (split ergativity) but accusative case depends on the specificity/definiteness of the object (Differential Object Marking). First, the chapter argues that ergative and accusative are indeed both structural dependent cases in Hindi. Then it shows how the seeming-contradiction can be resolved if ergative and accusative are assigned in different domains: ergative in vP and accusative in TP. Finally, it argues that dative subjects never trigger accusative case on direct objects because of the special status of c-command relationships that are established the first time NPs are spelled out.
Partitives, Case, and licensing in Kinande
Authors: Schneider-Zioga Patricia , Irimia Monica Alexandrina 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter addresses the problem of Case licensing in the Bantu language Kinande through the examination of a less discussed construction, the so-called sociative causative. Of particular interest is the special syntactic behaviour of the theme in this type of causative, such as the impossibility of asymmetric ordering with other internal arguments or blocking of passivization. It is shown that an account which presupposes the necessity of abstract nominal licensing (on the theme) can derive the facts correctly. Additionally, the chapter contains a thorough examination of other morphosyntactic properties of the sociative causative, among which locative morphology on the theme which is not interpreted as a locative semantically. It thus also contributes to typological studies on a rarely discussed type of causative.
Venezuela
Authors: Pesci-Feltri Flavia 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Due process is a part of the Venezuelan legal system, together with the right of access to justice, one of the primary constitutional provisions protecting the freedom and rights of the people before the action of the public power. The Organic Law of Administrative Procedures seeks principally to materialize the content of the principle of administrative legality and is called to control the exercise of power to ensure that the rights of the citizens are respected in the performance of administrative action. In this sense, it provides the principles ruling the legal relationship between the people and the Public Administration, the limits of its performance, and the rights to be protected. All of this is conceived within the requirement for the administration to act rationally and effectively in pursuing the goals attributed to it, satisfying the requests of the administrators.
General Principles at the European Level
Authors: Andenas Mads 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The chapter addresses the analysis of the general principles relevant for resolving the hypothetical cases in this book, as these general principles have been enumerated in the national reports as general principles at the European level. In the interlocking European legal order (or orders), general principles are applied at all levels, including that of the European Union, European human rights, and nation states. General principles at different levels contribute to the formation and application of principles at other levels. Domestic law at the nation state level contributes to the formation of principles at the levels of the European Union, European human rights, and international law. In the other direction, from the European and international law levels to the domestic, these supranational level principles influence the principles at the domestic level, and result in an influential interaction between the interlocking legal orders. The European legal orders and their domestic legal systems also interact with international law and law from other domestic jurisdictions.
Book 2
Authors: Friedman Rachel D. 
Published: July 2024

AbstractIn book 1 Zeus assents to Thetis’s request that he grant glory to Achilles by making the Achaeans feel the deadly consequences of his absence. In book 2 Zeus begins implementing this plan when he encourages Agamemnon to ready the Achaeans for battle. Book 2 revolves around Agamemnon’s struggle to revitalize and muster the Achaeans. They are demoralized after nine years of fighting and are feeling the consequences of Achilles’s defection in book 1. After they are brought back from the brink of chaos and flight, the book ends with the Catalogue of Ships, which represents the restoration of order to the army and their readiness to fight. The themes discussed in this chapter are Agamemnon, leadership, deceit, the army, dissent, and (dis)order. The topics considered in the section on poetics are invocations, similes, and catalogues.
Book 5
Authors: López-Ruiz Carolina 
Published: July 2024

AbstractBook 5 features several extraordinary clashes: single combats among renowned heroes, gods entering the battlefield to save their favorite heroes or to direct the outcome, gods quarreling among themselves over the war, and human-god confrontations in which the gods are humiliated and physically wounded. But how to show all this without Achilles? In book 5 Diomedes emerges as the substitute “best of the Achaeans”: this book is often called the aristeia (“excellent deeds in battle”) of Diomedes. In its consideration of themes, this chapter highlights the ways in which the poet brings the human heroes and the gods into close contact and even blurs the lines between mortals and immortals. It also discusses the characters’ use of exempla and touches on the Homeric depiction of war. The section on poetics addresses the Iliad’s adaptation of an episode from the Epic of Gilgamesh.
