A Threefold Method for Studying Self-pattern Dynamics
Authors: Gallagher Shaun 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter focuses on several factors of the self-pattern for purposes of exploring in more detail how those factors are dynamically related, and how they may be affected in various disorders. The chapter outlines a threefold method that allows for an increasingly detailed analysis of how these relations are typically ordered and sometimes differently ordered. Rather than defining relations a priori, the method is empirical. It borrows tools developed in several other areas of research, including, (1) from performance studies, the model of a meshed architecture, (2) the notion of interventionist causality, and (3) dynamical systems analysis, specifically a coordination dynamics approach. The method is then applied to the case of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), with a focus on bodily, experiential, cognitive, affective, intersubjective, and social factors in the self-pattern.
Disorder, Dissociation, and Disruption in Self-narrative
Authors: Gallagher Shaun 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter continues to explore the idea that self-narrative tracks a number of processes in the self-pattern. Self-narrative has been closely associated with philosophical discussions of personal identity, helping to delineate distinctions between idem and ipse identity and answer questions that primarily pertain to characterization. Considerations about narrative distance and dissociation can provide some insight into how to think about coherence, and its disruption, in the self-pattern. In self-narrative several capacities can be disrupted, including temporal integration, first-person self-reference, autobiographical memory, and reflective metacognition. In this respect narrative can be regarded as a forensic tool, and this is demonstrated in cases of schizophrenia where all of these capacities break down, and in borderline personality disorder where one finds a disintegrated self-narrative reflecting problems with reflective capacity, affectivity, intersubjectivity, and bodily self-experience.
Phenomenological Anchors
Authors: Gallagher Shaun 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter explores some of the complex elements in the phenomenology of the self-pattern—specifically the experiences of agency and ownership. It also explores a variety of philosophical debates about these concepts. The experience of agency is itself phenomenologically complex, involving sensorimotor processes, prereflective experience, intention formation, and reflective retrospective evaluation. The chapter maps out how the sense of agency is interwoven with the experience of ownership and other elements of the self-pattern, including social and intersubjective processes. Dynamical connections between senses of agency and ownership can break down in psychiatric disorders, and instances of a missing or reduced or modified sense of agency in various disorders, including schizophrenia, anosognosia for hemiplegia, anarchic hand syndrome, OCD, addiction, and agoraphobia, can be found.
Catholic Social Teaching
Authors: Bell Mark 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter provides an introduction to Catholic Social Teaching (CST). It explains the purpose of CST, which applies Christian beliefs to issues that arise through our life in society, including relationships in the labour market. Although it does not prescribe detailed solutions for law and policy, it establishes clear parameters for what is required in the pursuit of justice and human development. The chapter provides a short overview of the evolution of modern CST, with particular reference to papal teaching since the nineteenth century. It explores the sources upon which CST is based. These include Scripture and the natural law, but CST has also been influenced by developments in society, such as wider acceptance of gender equality. Although CST emerges from the official teaching of the Catholic Church, it is accompanied by theological reflection on Catholic social ethics. This chapter introduces certain critiques that arise, such as those found in feminist and liberation theologies. The chapter concludes by reflecting on the tension between change and continuity that characterizes the development of CST.
The Right to a Just Wage
Authors: Bell Mark 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter investigates the contribution of Catholic Social Teaching (CST) to ethical reflection on the right to a just wage. The evolution of the Church’s teaching on just wages is examined, such as the growing acceptance of a role for the State, together with the legitimacy of collective bargaining. In CST, the just wage is connected to the idea of a family wage, but the latter has been criticized for its male breadwinner paradigm. The chapter then turns to explore the role of the EU in regulating wages. Historically, this was very limited, but in 2022 the Union adopted a Directive on adequate minimum wages. The EU has a long-standing body of law on equal pay between women and men, as well as wider provisions on non-discrimination in remuneration. The chapter considers what light may be shone on EU law by viewing this through the lens of CST. Church teaching places just wages at the centre of ensuring the dignity of work. In contrast, historically fair pay has been a marginal concern for EU labour law. CST would suggest that this was a shortcoming in EU labour law and that there is justification for the Union now adopting measures in this field. The chapter concludes by observing that engagement with EU law exposes how Church teaching remains under-developed in respect of wage justice for women.
The Contribution of Catholic Social Teaching to Labour Law
Authors: Bell Mark 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter explores the contribution of Catholic Social Teaching (CST) to ethical reflection on work and its practical implications for labour law. It concludes that CST makes a valuable contribution because it articulates a justification for labour rights premised upon the dignity of the human person. CST proposes an understanding of dignity that is infused with the principle of solidarity. This means that dignity entails just relationships between workers and their employers. In CST, the ethical significance of work lies in the fact that it is performed by human persons, a dimension that has increasing salience in the face of digitalization. In keeping with the principle of subsidiarity, dignity entails the participation of workers, including through trade unions. The chapter argues that CST offers insights into the content and direction of contemporary labour law. Applied to EU labour law, it finds that the latter is broadly congruent with CST’s belief that the market must be ordered to serve the common good. It observes, however, that the dignity of work has not yet established itself as a strong influence upon EU labour law. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the relationship between faith and labour law. It maintains that faith-based perspectives can play a constructive part in public deliberation on the regulation of work. Such dialogue may also facilitate religions in their own critical reflection on how they apply their beliefs to modern contexts.
Materiality and Devotion in the Poetry of George Herbert
Authors: Cioni Francesca 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
For George Herbert, his contemporaries, and readers, material things were spiritually animated but deeply troubling. Habitual providential and typological interpretation made matter meaningful, and all of Creation interconnected; using material things was an act of interpretation, devotion an act of reading. At the same time Protestant doctrine and Church of England policy regulated the ways and conditions in which material things, bodies, and spaces might be properly used in devotion. By close reading of The Temple, other contemporary devotional and doctrinal texts, this book explores how Herbert and his readers understood, experienced, and used material objects in devotion. The Temple is built of paper and ink, of Biblical allusion, and of analogy to both physical churches and communities of believers: a material and spiritual, literal and figurative construction. Herbert’s verse carries meaning materially and spiritually, literally and figuratively; in its devotional poetics material and spiritual meanings inform one another and the readers’ devotional lives. This book focuses on three significant facets of the materiality of seventeenth-century English devotion: bodies, church buildings, and books. Part I analyses whether and how embodied performance of prayer was spiritually meaningful in the voice, in the heart, and in the postures of prayer. Part II turns to the church building, as the contested space in which public worship was practised, and the model for The Temple’s structuring metaphor. Finally, the Coda examines the book itself as a material object used in devotion, and the surface by which The Temple is read and used.
Introduction
Authors: Cioni Francesca 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
George Herbert’s poem ‘The Posie’, in all its wit, multivalency, and concern with the making of poetry, confronts the reader with problems that are crucial to early modern English Protestant devotion. Herbert’s post-Reformation English readers lived in a world where the capacity for material things, spaces, and bodies to be spiritually meaningful, to participate in and enable full-hearted devotion, or to threaten, distract, and decay, was deeply felt. Discussions of liturgical and ceremonial meaning by Thomas Cranmer and Richard Hooker endeavoured to establish how material things could hold spiritual significance, a discourse which resonates with poetical pronouncements by the likes of George Puttenham, Sir Philip Sidney, and Francis Bacon. The matter and form of Herbert’s verse is often conspicuous as both a material artefact and a prompt for devotional and literary use, and its myriad ‘surfaces’ offer us access to a complex and conflicted world of materiality.
‘Dissolution sure doth best discern’
Authors: Cioni Francesca 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Death and commemoration were crucial to Herbert’s poetic career: his first poetry published in print was his commemorative verse for his mother, Memoriae Matris Sacrum; Nicholas Ferrar made Herbert’s own pious death the entryway to the printed Temple in his prefatory epistle; and later editions of The Temple accreted commemorative paratexts, making the volume itself a commemorative work. The work of the church monument and that of devotional poetry are fundamentally similar, both representing what is absent—the divine and the deceased subject—through material form and figurative representation. Close reading of Memoriae Matris Sacrum and the Herbert monument at Montgomery reveal the shared complexities and ironies of the poetic and plastic forms. In ‘Church-monuments’ Herbert builds on and ‘dissolves’ the ‘monumental’ form of reading, a textual dissolution that reflects the paradoxes of contemporary literary cultures that exalted monumental texts while prioritizing excepting, recontextualization, and practical use.
Milton and the “Stile of Lofty”
Authors: Vozar Thomas Matthew 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Chapter 2 argues for the importance of a conception of sublime rhetoric in Milton’s poetry and prose. I first speculate on when and in which edition Milton might have first encountered Longinus. Milton’s education in rhetoric more broadly is also considered, as is the possibility that Milton himself may have taught the Peri hupsous to his nephews. I then show that Milton possessed a sense of biblical sublimity of style which deeply informed his soaring prophetic poetry. The potentially dangerous association of such sublimity with enthusiasm or religious fanaticism is also explored. Finally I turn to the political import of Longinus for Milton, considering the connections between Longinian hupsos and revolutionary politics. The chapter concludes with an analysis of Satan in Paradise Lost as a republican orator whose enslavement by his passions, as Longinus warns, prevents him from achieving true sublimity.
Milton and the Theological Sublime
Authors: Vozar Thomas Matthew 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Chapter 4 asserts that a notion of the sublime pervaded Milton’s theological thought. I first attend to Milton’s 1634 Maske as a work in which virgin purity so sublimes the soul that the threat of God’s wrath is invoked against its enemies. Next I consider the war in heaven in Paradise Lost, arguing that this episode should not be interpreted as farce but rather as a sublime theomachy which closely follows the Homeric pattern praised by Longinus. After this I endeavor to demonstrate that in Paradise Lost and in the theological treatise De Doctrina Christiana Milton portrays a deity whose obscurity and wrath suggest the ultimately incomprehensible sublimity of the divine. The final part of the chapter considers the neglected theological notion of timor idololatricus (“idolatrous fear”) in De Doctrina, Paradise Lost, and Samson Agonistes.
HRDD at the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development and the International Labour Organization
Authors: Landau Ingrid 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter examines how human rights due diligence (HRDD) has been received and contested at two prominent intergovernmental organisations in transnational labour governance: the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the International Labour Organization (ILO). Drawing on insights from transnational governance and political science, it shows how HRDD’s framing and dynamics of forum shifting have enabled the OECD to adopt a leading role in explicating what HRDD entails when it comes to labour rights. The OECD has largely interpreted HRDD in a manner consistent with a managerial logic. Recognising the limitations of the OECD’s approach to HRDD, the international labour movement and non-governmental organisations have sought to pursue an alternative interpretation of HRDD at the ILO. To date, however, these efforts have proved largely unsuccessful.
What Does HRDD Mean for Transnational Labour Governance?
Authors: Landau Ingrid 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter considers what the developments revealed in earlier chapters mean for transnational labour governance as a field of scholarship, policy, and activism. It identifies and discusses four key implications and elaborates on why each warrants greater reflection, dissection, and discussion from labour activists who prioritise human rights due diligence (HRDD) as a strategic objective and among international labour scholars. The first finding is that there is little to suggest that HRDD is being legalised at the international or national level in a way that meets the initial expectations accorded to it by the international labour movement and others. The other three findings arise from HRDD’s reframing of questions around corporate accountability and labour rights in terms of risk management. This reframing is facilitating a more prominent role for national courts and for-profit intermediaries in transnational labour governance. It has also enabled the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development to consolidate its role as a transnational labour regulator. The chapter discusses the implications of each of these developments.
A Nation Fermented
Authors: Terrell Robert Shea 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
How did beer become one of the central commodities associated with the German nation? How did a little-known provincial production standard—the Reinheitsgebot, or Beer Purity Law—become a pillar of national consumer sentiments? How did the jovial, beer-drinking German become a fixture in the global imagination? While the connection between beer and Germany seems self-evident, A Nation Fermented reveals how it was produced through a strange brew of regional commercial and political pressures. Spanning from the late nineteenth century to the last decades of the twentieth, this book argues that the economic, regulatory, and cultural weight of Bavaria shaped the German nation in profound ways. Drawing on sources from more than a dozen archives and repositories, this book weaves together subjects ranging from tax law to advertising, public health to European integration, and agriculture to global stereotypes. Offering a history of the Germany that Bavaria made over the twentieth century, A Nation Fermented both eschews sharp temporal divisions and forgoes conventional narratives centered on Prussia, Berlin, or the Rhineland. In so doing, the book offers a fresh take on the importance of provincial influences and the role of commodities and commerce in shaping the nation.
Introduction
Authors: Terrell Robert Shea 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This introduction develops the main arguments of the book. From the late 19th century to the end of the 20th, the combined economic and regulatory power of intransigent Bavarian brewers, regulators, and other cultural intermediaries—from consumers to advertisers—shaped many facets of the production, consumption, and political economy of beer in Germany. Brewers across Germany, but particularly in Bavaria, were fiercely loyal to regional traditions, regularly prioritizing local values in their business calculations. The staunch regionalism of Bavarian brewers and their legislative allies fundamentally shaped the production and regulation of beer across several iterations of the German nation-state. Whether in tax law or the fits and starts of European integration, Bavarians’ ongoing intransigence and refusal to compromise on regional tradition informed the economic, political, and social structures of Germany. Culturally, too, Bavarian brewers and legislators led the nation in its embrace of “beer purity” as a hallmark of German commercial sentiments and propped up an international stereotype of the beer-drinking, Oktoberfest German, in many cases stripped of its Bavarian origins.
Integration and Its Discontents
Authors: Terrell Robert Shea 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter spans from the turn of the twentieth century to the early 1930s, focusing on three tensions of integration that challenged the place of beer within the changing German nation: the regulation of production standards, a shifting federal tax structure, and the growing international temperance movement. In each, brewers, regulators, and social reformers contested how—and what kind of—beer fit in German society. Increasingly homogenous production standards sparked opposition from brewers in northern Germany, where regulations had been most lax and cultures of production were especially diverse. There, brewers advocated for their industrial and social interests in response to state interventions, ranging from the use of sugar in brewing to wartime measures designed to combat material scarcity. In the case of taxation, the stakes were highest in the southern states, which had long retained their own tax revenues on beer but faced a new federal fiscal structure in the Weimar Republic. So intense was the response that provincial disputes over the beer tax even eroded support for the republic itself. While these regulatory pressures prompted varying regional responses—first in the north and later in the south—brewers across Germany were largely united in opposition to the temperance movement. The coordinated and targeted assaults of social reformers increasingly moved brewing trade organizations to advocate for beer as a public good.
Liquid Bread
Authors: Terrell Robert Shea 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter reveals the crucial role of Bavaria in the emerging structures of the Federal Republic. Faced with the rampant food scarcity of the immediate post-war period, the Allied powers enacted a series of prohibitions on beer in an effort to increase bread production. This strategy backfired, depriving Bavarians in particular of the “liquid bread” which energized farmhands, provided a much-needed sterile beverage in rural areas, and generated by-products that enriched livestock feed. As Bavaria became the breadbasket of western Germany in the fledgling Cold War, those voices insisting on the importance of beer were elevated. As Bavarian political leaders and agrarians reframed beer as a nutritional, agricultural, and ultimately economic necessity, such arguments informed legislative structures—from the lifting of the prohibition to the resolution of decades-old conflicts over the beer tax. Taken together, these changes index a reconfiguration of the relative power of the German lands in divided, post-Prussian Germany.
The Making of the International Solar Alliance
Authors: Jha Vyoma 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This book is the first empirical account on the making of the International Solar Alliance (ISA). Announced jointly by India and France on the first day of the Paris climate talks in 2015, the ISA was conceived as a coalition of ‘solar-rich’ countries located between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn for optimal absorption of the sun’s rays. These ‘solar-rich’ countries are mostly developing countries that witness almost three hundred sunny days in a year, but face major gaps in the deployment of solar energy. In less than two years, the ISA—led by India and backed primarily by developing countries—became a legal entity. With no perceivable competitive advantage in solar manufacturing or technologies, what explains India’s relative success in bringing together countries to form a new international organization focused on solar energy? Why did India insist on a treaty structure for the ISA? What are the transaction costs of bringing the ‘solar-rich’ countries vis-à-vis the ‘solar-poor’ countries on board? What was the role of France in the treaty-making process? Responding to these questions, the book draws on the political economy approach to analyse the motivations for India to steer a new treaty-based international organization. It presents the empirical evidence and arguments using three frames: process, politics, and players. Ultimately, the book illustrates a new kind of Indian economic diplomacy, making the ISA the first deliberate instrument of India’s foreign policy on climate change and energy.
Players
Authors: Jha Vyoma 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Against the backdrop of India’s engagement with multilateral climate negotiations, this chapter investigates the main players behind operationalizing Modi’s vision for a new, India-led solar alliance. This chapter presents India’s negotiating strategy and legal culture, in order to explain the shift in its foreign policy to capture the political and economic leadership on solar energy. It finds that the dominance of diplomats in India’s negotiating teams, often without legal advisers or international lawyers, is responsible for shaping India’s external climate strategies. Diplomacy sits at the core of India’s international rule-making identity and the process itself is not legalized. Therefore, the broader politico-legal culture of the diplomatic community—a multipolar worldview combined with a long-standing wariness of negotiators to sign onto legally binding provisions—played a determinative role in the choice of legal form of the ISA. Most importantly, the creation of the ISA marks a new kind of economic diplomacy, making it the first deliberate instrument of India’s foreign policy on climate change and energy.
