Sand Rush
Authors: Devienne Elsa , Price Jenny 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Los Angeles’s shoreline is among the world’s most iconic natural landscapes, yet how natural is it? How did it come to embody the quintessential modern beach experience? In the early 1900s, Angelenos lamented the condition of LA’s shores; many beaches were private and inaccessible to the public. Sand Rush recounts the beach modernization campaign that transformed Los Angeles into one of the world’s greatest coastal metropolises, revealing how the city’s man-made shores hosted the reinvention of seaside leisure and the triumph of modern bodies. Between the 1920s and 1960s, LA engineers, city officials, urban planners, and the business elite collaborated to transform relatively untouched beaches into modern playgrounds for the white middle class. They cleaned up and artificially enlarged the beaches, destroying old piers and barracks to make room for new accommodations. This powerful beach lobby adapted the beach experience to the suburban age, preventing much-feared white flight from the coast. Southern California became a national reference point for beach planning, with vast public spaces created for Angelenos to express themselves and forge lively subcultures. By mid-century, Southern California’s beaches were a global cultural phenomenon, yet these transformations adversely affected certain beachgoers—especially African Americans, gay men and women, and bodybuilders—whose presence there did not align with the beach lobby’s vision. In Los Angeles, modern expectations of the beach and beach bodies took shape. When rising sea levels threaten the world’s shorelines, Sand Rush reveals the web of environmental, social, and cultural factors that created these influential American spaces.
Can You Be a Catholic and a Feminist?
Authors: Rubio Julie Hanlon 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
The fundamental question of this book is the possibility of reconciling Catholic and feminist identities. Answers adopted in the decades since Vatican II and the rise of second-wave feminism are still broadly held, but with increasing tentativeness and a growing sense of their inadequacy. Today, tensions between Catholicism and feminism are more visible, and strong ties to Catholic communities are eroding, making answers that worked in decades past increasingly fragile. This book attempts a new synthesis, arguing that Catholic feminist identity is only possible if one (1) frankly acknowledges tensions between Catholicism and feminism, (2) goes deep enough into both traditions to see the gaps between them and all they hold in common, and (3) consciously cultivates an authentically feminist way of being Catholic. In nine short chapters, tensions and synergy between Catholics and feminists are explored through various lenses, including sex, marriage, work, gender, power, spirituality, and belonging. Moving from easier to difficult, the author confronts each issue in turn, revealing underacknowledged common ground without ever looking away from deeper fissures. The book aims to give those who struggle to balance Catholic faith and feminist commitments a credible path to authentic belonging.
An Unholy Traffic
Authors: Colby Robert K.D. 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
During the American Civil War, Confederates bought and sold thousands of men, women, and children. A robust and surviving slave trade, the extension of a traffic that had emerged to support the rise of the Cotton Kingdom, enabled them to do so. Even though the war destroyed the economy that had long underpinned American slavery, Confederates nevertheless traded people from Fort Sumter to Appomattox. Some took advantage of the enduring slave trade to shape their experiences of the war, using their ability to force people into motion to mobilize for the conflict or to weather the numerous crises it created on the homefront. Others speculated wildly, investing in the enslaved during the war to fight off inflation and to buy shares in the slaveholding future for which they fought. Still others traded people to ward off the progress of emancipation. For those held in slavery, meanwhile, the surviving slave trade dramatically shaped the ways in which they encountered freedom, preventing many from achieving it by yanking them back into bondage even as it inspired others to take the risk of escaping. The Civil War slave trade thus profoundly shaped the experience of the conflict for all residents of the American South. Regardless of the choices they made—to buy or to sell people, to risk sale or to flee from it—the effects of the slave trade reverberated throughout the conflict and produced legacies that endured long after the guns fell silent.
Students With Adverse Childhood Experiences
Authors: Powell Tara , Muller Jenna 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
This chapter explains adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and their impact on children’s physical and mental health. It provides an overview of the research and literature on school-based interventions designed to reduce the impact of ACEs at the individual and systems level. An overview of trauma-informed care (TIC) is presented as a guide for mitigating the short- and long-term effects of exposure to childhood adversity. Steps for implementing TIC are also provided with specific examples of school-based interventions and websites to inform school personnel on strategies to reduce the consequences of ACEs. A practice example demonstrates the application of TIC in schools, and a trauma-informed checklist is provided to aid schools in establishing TIC practices and policies.
Students With ADHD
Authors: Teasley Martell L. , Teasley Bonita R. 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurobiological disorder with both genetic and environmental influences that impair executive functioning. Frequently diagnosed during school years, ADHD is the most common neurobehavioral problem affecting children 3 to 17 years of age. School-aged children with ADHD experience a host of psychological and behavioral challenges causing problems in the home and school environments. Researchers have identified the symptomatology of children’s exposure to adverse childhood experiences as similar in nature to children experiencing problems related to ADHD. There is also the challenge of overdiagnosis of ADHD, particularly among low-income minoritized populations. This chapter discusses research related to ADHD in school-aged children and youth to include information on children’s symptomatology, diagnosis and treatment modalities, financial/economic considerations, and intervention with teachers, parents, and families. The authors provide information on trauma-informed care and stress the need for school-based professionals to understand issues related to racial/ethnic and gender disparities in ADHD diagnosis and treatment. A host of resources are identified to assist school-based professionals who work with children and families diagnosed with ADHD. The authors provide a case scenario based on evidence-based approaches to assessment and treatment for school-aged children, youth, and families who experience ADHD diagnosis.
Expansive Ecological Model for Attendance and Engagement Interventions
Authors: Guz Samantha , Irsheid Sireen 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Attendance and school engagement have been long-standing goals within school social work. This chapter re-engages these goals through the Transformative Racial Equity Framework (TREF), an approach that explicitly identifies structural racism as the primary barrier to school attendance and engagement. After renewing literature on how structural racism manifests in barriers to school engagement, the authors apply TREF to direct practice. By applying TREF to direct practice, the authors hope to counter the pervasive notion that school attendance and engagement are individualized problems of student deficits. Through a case example, the authors demonstrate how TREF can help foster structural competency and reconceptualize school engagement interventions. The chapter closes with a discussion of school engagement and attendance as structural problems that require the political engagement of school social work.
Improving School Climate
Authors: Capp Gordon , Astor Ron Avi 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
This chapter reviews and examines definitions of school climate along with important additions to traditional models of school climate, including a focus on academic achievement and organizational factors. It highlights the Welcoming, Empowering, and Monitoring Approach as a way to understand the nuances of climate that exist in various schools, and the importance of combining ground-up data and solutions with large-scale data and top-down interventions. In addition, this chapter encourages practitioners to consider the school, rather than individuals, as the client so that interventions to understand and improve climate benefit all stakeholders: students, staff, parents, and community members. It presents strategies for school social workers, school psychologists, and other nonteaching school staff, who may be charged with changing and improving school climate.
Gang-Involved Youth in Schools
Authors: Hernandez Robert A. , Garcia Lauren M. , Tam Margaret Y. W. 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
This chapter focuses on school practitioners working with gang-involved/affiliated youth. The chapter discusses the challenges and errors schools face when attempting to address students involved with gangs. It details the current state of evidence-based gang intervention models and programs that address not only gang behaviors but also those that have both a mental health needs focus and a collaborative approach. The chapter guides the reader toward not only understanding the need for incorporating cultural humility, culturally sensitive approaches, respect, authenticity, strengths-based and ecological perspectives; for creating strong rapport between therapist and student; and for fashioning a safe therapeutic environment, but also it presents key components that allow said strategies to occur.
School-Based Interventions Following Violent Crises
Authors: Hong Jun Sung , Kim Isak , Lee Jungup , Espelage Dorothy L. 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Crises following violence in schools have received a tremendous amount of research and media attention over the years. As a result, a wide range of violence prevention programs, from individual counseling to whole-school approach have been developed and implemented in U.S. school districts over the past several years. This chapter provides an overview of three promising evidence-based programs: social-emotional learning, solution-focused brief therapy, and restorative justice. Although such programs are shown to be effective as indicated in empirical research findings, practitioners, teachers, and school staff members need to also consider the multiple social systems students are embedded in and how they may foster or inhibit violence occurring in school.
Latinx Students and Families and Refugees
Authors: Delva Jorge , Martinez Dawn Belkin , Calvo Rocio 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
This chapter describes the application of motivational interviewing (MI) embedded within a Liberation Health (LH) model to help Latinx families whose youth may be experiencing behavioral health problems in school settings. The combination of MI and LH allows for a nonconfrontational, supportive, tailored therapeutic intervention that destigmatizes and depathologizes the youth and families’ lived experiences. This is done through a collaborative effort with families that encourages them to analyze the problem they may be experiencing in its totality. This chapter provides examples of ways a problem can be analyzed in its totality by taking into account the larger social, economic, political, institutional, and cultural dimensions that affect Latinx populations.
Global Value Chain–Oriented Policies in Latin America
Authors: Pietrobelli Carlo , Rabellotti Roberta , Van Assche Ari 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
This chapter examines global value chain (GVC)-oriented policies. It categorizes GVC-oriented policies according to four different policy objectives: participation, value capture, inclusiveness, and resiliency. The social and economic rationales for state intervention across the different types of GVC-oriented policies are compared. In addition, the chapter discusses the instruments and actions at the disposal of governments as they seek to reach their policy objectives. The chapter discusses evidence concerning the nature and functioning of these different GVC policies in the Latin American context. The trifecta of tasks, linkages, and firms explains whether and how GVC-oriented policies differ from traditional public policies. The chapter suggests that carefully-crafted GVC policies, in particular those which engage with the logic and structure of individual sectors, can be effective. This holds out the possibility of energizing growth through the realization of more local value-added, together with domestic accumulation of technological and production-centered capabilities.
The Economics of Animal Sacrifice
Authors: Rives J. B. 
Published: March 2024

AbstractThis chapter examines the economic dimensions of animal sacrifice. The environmental conditions of the ancient Mediterranean meant that the sorts of large domestic animals that were normally sacrificed were valuable resources that most people could not afford to consume very often. There were, however, important variables. The major groups of edible domestic animals (cattle, sheep/goats, and pigs) differed in both the costs and the benefits of their production. There were also differences in the goals of peasant and elite animal production: the former focused on diversification and risk reduction, the latter on the exploitation of resources to maintain social status. In these conditions, animal sacrifice not only demonstrated piety to the gods but also communicated information about economic and social status. Different types of sacrificial victims commanded greater or lesser prestige in inverse correlation with their availability and cost: bovines were more prestigious than smaller species, fully grown adults more than young animals. Animal sacrifice was thus a practice that marked elite status and simultaneously produced a highly desirable consumer good: high-quality meat. For both reasons, it served as an efficient instrument for articulating the unequal social relationship between those with greater and lesser economic resources.
Theorizing Animal Sacrifice I
Authors: Rives J. B. 
Published: March 2024

AbstractThis chapter examines early Greek discourses about animal sacrifice. The first section assesses critiques associated with Orphic and Pythagorean tradition, which deemed it wrong for humans to kill and eat animals because souls could pass after death between humans and animals. Early adherents of these traditions seemed concerned not with animal sacrifice per se but with killing and eating animals generally. The second section surveys the theorization of sacrificial practice in the classical period. Plato’s concern with correct understanding of the gods led him to condemn the belief that people could win them over through sacrifice, but he seems to have accepted the practice on the basis of tradition. Other schools apparently held broadly similar positions. Theophrastus roundly rejected animal sacrifice, yet his views reflect the mainstream philosophical emphasis on correct belief about the nature of the divine. The major classical schools of philosophy, deeply concerned with people’s conception of the gods, seem to have been less concerned with cult practices. Nevertheless, by the first century CE, the development of philosophy had created an alternative framework for social authority that made it possible for certain individuals to promote an understanding of sacrificial practice radically at odds with traditional Graeco-Roman practice.
How Free Are We?
Authors: Cyr Taylor W. , Flummer Matthew T. 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
This book is a collection of edited interviews from The Free Will Show—a podcast that provides a beginner-friendly introduction to free will while also highlighting recent developments on the topic. The book includes original material as well, including an introduction to the interviews and an afterward with reflections on the podcast by the authors (who are cohosts of The Free Will Show). The book also includes a bibliography and suggestions for further reading after each interview and a glossary of terms at the end of the book. The book will serve well either as a textbook or as an accessible entry-point to the free will debate, whether for an interested non-specialist or a philosopher who works in another area. The first half of this book introduces the main issues and arguments in philosophical debates about free will, including various apparent threats to free will (fatalism, foreknowledge, and determinism), the Consequence Argument, and the problem of luck, among others. The second half of this book introduces the main positions in the debate about free will and determinism, including several varieties of libertarianism and compatibilism, a version of free will skepticism, and some other positions that do not fit neatly into these categories.
Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health
Authors: Chambers David 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Fifteen to 20 years is how long it takes for the billions of dollars of health-related research to translate into evidence-based policies and programs suitable for public use. Over the past two decades, an exciting science has emerged that seeks to narrow the gap between the discovery of new knowledge and its application in public health, mental health, and healthcare settings. Dissemination and implementation (D&I) research seeks to understand how to best apply scientific advances in the real world by focusing on pushing the evidence-based knowledge base into routine use. To help propel this crucial field forward, leading D&I scholars and researchers have collaborated to put together this volume to address a number of key issues, including how to evaluate the evidence base on effective interventions; which strategies will produce the greatest impact; how to design an appropriate study; and how to track a set of essential outcomes. D&I studies must also take into account the barriers to uptake of evidence-based interventions in the communities where people live their lives and the social service agencies, hospitals, and clinics where they receive care. The challenges of moving research to practice and policy are universal, and future progress calls for collaborative partnerships and cross-country research. The fundamental tenet of D&I research—taking what we know about improving health and putting it into practice—must be the highest priority. This book is a roadmap that will have broad appeal to researchers and practitioners across many disciplines.
Adaptation in Dissemination and Implementation Science
Authors: Baumann Ana A. , Stirman Shannon Wiltsey , Cabassa Leopoldo J. 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
This chapter focuses on adaptations in the context of dissemination and implementation research and practice. Consistent with the existing literature, the authors recommend that adaptations be proactively and iteratively determined, strongly informed by a variety of stakeholders, and include efforts to carefully describe and document the nature of the adaptations and evaluate their impact on desired service, health, and implementation outcomes. While this chapter focuses on adaptations to interventions and the context of practice, note also that adaptations may need to be made to implementation strategies. Following the call by Proctor and colleagues for further precision in defining and operationalizing implementation strategies and based on evidence that scholars are not necessarily reporting what and how they are adapting the interventions, scholars are urged to define and evaluate the adaptations that they are making to not only the interventions and context of practice but also the implementation strategies.
Design and Analysis in Dissemination and Implementation Research
Authors: Curran Geoffrey M. , Smith Justin D. , Landsverk John , Vermeer Wouter , Miech Edward J. , Kim Bo , Cruden Gracelyn , Fernandez Maria E. , Brown C. Hendricks 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
A wide variety of dissemination and implementation (D&I) research designs are now being used to evaluate and improve health systems and outcomes. This chapter discusses research questions in D&I, methods for implementation preparation, and randomized and nonrandomized designs for the traditional translational research continuum or pipeline, which builds on existing efficacy and effectiveness trials to examine how one or more health interventions are adopted, scaled up, and sustained in community or service delivery systems. The chapter also considers other designs, including hybrid approaches that combine effectiveness and implementation research and designs that use simulation modeling and configurational analysis. A case example of a novel large-scale rollout implementation optimization design implementation study is also presented. The chapter also provides suggested readings and websites useful for design decisions.
Mixed-Methods Evaluation in Dissemination and Implementation Science
Authors: Palinkas Lawrence A. , Cooper Brittany Rhoades , Leon Jessenia De , Salinas Erika 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
In reviewing the rapidly growing literature on the use of mixed methods to address important issues confronting the science of dissemination and implementation, this chapter addresses two observations. The first observation is that mixed methods reflect an iterative process of data collection and analysis that involves both inductive and deductive approaches to understanding complex phenomena. Second, this chapter begins with the observation that using mixed methods is more than parallel play involving separate quantitative and qualitative studies. Both the iterative nature of dissemination and implementation science and the likely debate and compromises involved in selection and application of quantitative and qualitative methods in a mixed-method design demand attention on the part of the investigators to document and detail the rationale for the selection of methods and the process and outcomes of their use.
Implementation Science in Healthcare
Authors: Hamilton Alison B. , Brown Arleen 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Implementation science in healthcare comprises over 30 years of rich and varied activity that has developed, refined, and applied implementation science concepts, theories, and research approaches. This body of activity has produced valuable empirical findings and has contributed to the continued development of the broader field of implementation science. This chapter describes key stages in the development and evolution of implementation science in healthcare. It discusses key settings, evidence-based practices, and implementation strategies studied by healthcare implementation researchers and examines key challenges and future directions in the field. Continued growth in healthcare implementation science will require expanded attention to sustainment, scale-up, and spread of effective healthcare practices and attention to the study of routine, naturally occurring implementation processes in addition to experimental evaluation of investigator-led implementation.
