A Tale of Volition
Authors: Stein Michael D. , Galea Sandro 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This chapter addresses the psychology of vaccine refusal during the COVID-19 pandemic. The chapter suggests that there is a degree of self-gratification in such refusal, a willfulness reminiscent of the titular character in Herman Melville’s 1853 short story, “Bartleby, the Scrivener.” Taking away the right of refusal through vaccine mandates could well have helped the United States more quickly return to normal, but it would have done so against the grain of this willfulness.
Does Capitalism Violate Rights?
Authors: Sehon Scott R. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Many socialists argue that capitalism violates rights, drawing on the traditional Marxist claim that capitalists make profit by extracting surplus value from labor, and that this extraction amounts to unfair exploitation of the position of laborers, and is thus a violation of their rights. The defender of capitalism might agree that that capitalists make profit, at least in part, by paying their workers less than the labor is worth to the capitalist. But the capitalist will claim that there is nothing unfair about this, and that it is not a violation of rights. After setting up the argument in its strongest form, the chapter takes no official position on whether the argument is sound and thus takes no position on whether capitalism violates rights.
Religion, the Secular, and Sacred Value in Counterpublics
Authors: Stauffer Aaron 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Typically, writers of religion and politics incorporate a distinction between secular and religious groups and then go on to complicate the way that a “religious” group is or is not political. Broad-based community organizing (BBCO) is a social practice that takes place in counterpublics that themselves refuse a neat distinction between religious and secular. This counterpublic framing of BBCO helps make clear the significance of calling BBCO a counterpublic, insofar as it refutes a neat divide between religious and secular, and it helps to accurately illuminate what is really going on with religion, politics, and practice in BBCO constituencies. Centering sacred value in BBCO practices helps revitalize the practice and clarifies the role of theology in a way that helps us see some organizing practices as religious practices.
Market Power and Legal Advantage
Authors: Powers Madison 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This chapter surveys how pervasive changes in the global political economy recommended by market fundamentalists undermined state capacity for protecting human rights. Dominant market participants were able to rewrite legal rules to their advantage and use their market power to subvert competitive norms. These changes fostered new predatory economic behaviors and accelerated the growth of existing trends, enabling a relatively few actors to capture the bulk of economic rewards of global production and investment and shift economic and environmental burdens and risks onto others, thereby undermining human rights fulfillment. These actors used their enhanced economic position to consolidate market power, evade market discipline, hoard opportunities, and reduce accountability to consumers; avoid political accountability by disempowering democracies while hijacking state and international institutions for private purposes; leverage enhanced capital mobility to game the global system of states; and extract windfall profits from speculative, socially destabilizing, and ecologically destructive capital investments.
Equality Emerges as a Ground for Abortion Rights in and after Dobbs
Authors: Franklin Cary , Siegel Reva 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Equality as well as liberty arguments can structure the debate about abortion that continues after Dobbs. This chapter draws on case law, history, and common sense to show that principles of equal citizenship require government to protect potential life in different ways today than it has in the past. Equal protection commitments give rise to an anticarceral presumption in regulating abortion. States that respect women as equal citizens do not turn, as a matter of first resort, to measures that rely on coercion when there are numerous less discriminatory and less restrictive ways to protect potential life. Reaching for carceral solutions perpetuates the forms of inequality that are the central concern of sex-based equal protection law. To opt for the maximally coercive approach—forced pregnancy and childbirth—when there are alternative means for enabling families to flourish is neither constitutional nor plausibly characterized as promoting life.
Why Was Roe v. Wade Wrong?
Authors: Mitchell Jonathan F. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Critics of Roe have hammered the Court’s opinion for recognizing a supposed right to abortion that lacks a clear textual foundation in the Constitution. Yet Roe was hardly the first time that the Supreme Court imposed a constitutional right that lacks textual support. Roe’s critics have responded by invoking a history-and-tradition test for distinguishing the “good” substantive due process rights from the “bad” ones, but there are many problems with using history and tradition as the touchstone for unenumerated constitutional rights. The Court should instead ask whether the unenumerated rights that it has recognized have textual support in other sources of supreme federal law, such as federal statutes and agency rules. And it should, when possible, invoke those extraconstitutional legal authorities to support the correctness of those substantive due process rulings. Roe has never been federally codified, and so is uniquely indefensible.
Justice Blackmun Got It Right in Roe v. Wade
Authors: Chemerinsky Erwin 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
The premise of the Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization is that Roe v. Wade was “egregiously wrong” and “exceedingly weak.” This essay says that Justice Harry Blackmun got it exactly right in addressing the three key questions: Are rights of privacy and autonomy protected even if not enumerated in the Constitution? Do laws prohibiting abortion infringe on privacy and autonomy? Does the state have a compelling interest in prohibiting abortions? A close reading of the Court’s opinion in Dobbs reveals that the Court agrees with Justice Blackmun on the first two issues, and it is only its judgment that states can regard the fetus as “potential life” that explains the overruling of Roe. But this decision is based on a religious judgment inappropriate for the Court to make.
Should Gradualism Have Prevailed in Dobbs?
Authors: Re Richard M. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Gradualism should have won out in Dobbs. In general, the Supreme Court should not impose massive disruption without first providing notice of its contemplated course of action. Only the chief justice followed that principle, and as a result his decision is the most compelling. By contrast, the majority’s most plausible rationale was steeped in judicial statecraft: the majority claimed that only grand, decisive action could meet the challenge at hand. But by acting in haste, the Court compromised its own deliberative process and prevented the public from adequately preparing for an avulsive shift in the law. The joint dissent’s treatment of precedent was even less persuasive. The dissent’s own uses of precedent demonstrate how readily case law is thrown overboard. So if the majority had reason to moderate, the dissenters did, too—by joining a gradualist opinion like the chief’s.
A Requiem for RoeWhen Property Has No Privacy
Authors: Goodwin Michele Bratcher 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This eulogy for Roe addresses forced reproduction and pregnancies—the conditions normalized before Roe, during coverture and slavery. Through Roe the Court initiated the work of dismantling its ugly record of affirming harmful laws that tethered women to motherhood. Laws banning women from full participation in society and suffrage are arguably rooted in coverture—the troubling legal theory that women’s identities and legal rights are subsumed within their husbands’ rights. Such laws were never meant to enrich women or to recognize their constitutional personhood, but rather to secure familial harmony for men. It debunks the notion that a woman gained protection from being “under [her husband’s] wing, protection and cover.” It centers the concerns of women, and Black women particularly, by reflecting on Margaret Garner, her escape from slavery, and subsequent trial for murder. It concludes by addressing post-Dobbs risks and harms: the new coverture and New Jane Crow.
The Unraveling
Authors: Minow Martha 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This chapter explores the implications of the Supreme Court’s revocation of a pregnant person’s right to choose to terminate a pregnancy; specifically, it explores implications for individuals’ right to choose to prevent a pregnancy through the purchase and use of contraceptives. Examining what the justices explicitly stated about the impact of the decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization on access to contraception, what they did not discuss, and what are likely and possible effects of the discussion, the chapter explores the immediate and grave uncertainty and heightened risk not only of unwanted pregnancies but also of job and wage insecurity for many people who can become pregnant as well as jeopardy to public confidence in the courts and law.
Introduction
Authors: Van der Laan Sarah 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
The Introduction lays out the several meanings of the ‘choice of Odysseus’ explored by The Choice of Odysseus, and traces their development through four centuries of letters, prefaces and paratexts, marginalia, commonplace books, treatises, and translations. Renaissance humanists choose Odysseus as an exemplary figure of prudence or practical wisdom and a model for navigating difficult or dangerous experiences in contemporary life. Renaissance poets choose Odysseus and the Odyssey as models for imitation over the more normative models of Aeneas and the Aeneid, reorienting the epic tradition for readers who were not Aeneas, nor were meant to be. Odysseus himself chooses to return to Ithaca and Penelope rather than marry Nausicaa and begin a new life on Scheria, a choice that takes on enormous importance in Renaissance readings and rewritings. In Renaissance epic, Odysseus’ choice becomes paradigmatic for the Odyssey as Achilles’ choice is for the Iliad. It sums up the values that Renaissance readers found in the Odyssey and Renaissance poets explored through their rewritings of it: the emphasis on recovery from a catastrophic rupture in both personal and civic life, the attempt to take control of romance wandering and direct it towards an epic purpose. It validates experience as heroic matter and marriage and homecoming as epic closure. And, against the Iliad and the Aeneid alike, it argues that a heroic life can encompass both public duty and private desire—and that true heroism lies not in sacrificing one for the other, but in reconciling both.
Towards a Dynamic Developmental and Life Course Criminology
Authors: Wikström Per-Olof H. , Treiber Kyle , Roman Gabriela Diana 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This chapter reviews key limitations of current approaches in Developmental and Life Course criminology (DLC) and advocates the advantages of moving towards a more dynamic DLC: one which promotes a true ecological perspective that, coupled with an adequate action theory, can explain how the person–environment interaction moves people to engage in acts of crime and hence how patterns of continuity and change in those interactions can explain people’s criminal careers. To achieve this requires dynamic theory to account for, and dynamic methodologies (and adequate data) to test key propositions regarding, the role of people and places in the explanation of continuity and changes in people’s crime involvement. This chapter argues that Situational Action Theory’s Developmental Ecological Action Model (DEA) and the Peterborough Adolescent and Young Adult Development Study (PADS +) can help meet these needs. It discusses how they address key theoretical and empirical limitations of DLC, including: the challenge and importance of establishing causation and the inadequacy of a risk factor approach; the seminal issue of temporal ordering; the necessity of explanation for effective crime prevention; the centrality of the person-environment interaction in explaining all acts, including crime events; and the need to effectively address and study change. Subsequent chapters present the DEA model in detail, describe the PADS+ study, and present many varied tests of the DEA’s core propositions about the causes, and causes of the causes, of people’s crime and criminal careers.
The Peterborough Adolescent and Young Adult Development Study (PADS+)
Authors: Wikström Per-Olof H. , Treiber Kyle , Roman Gabriela Diana 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Criminological research often lacks strong scientific theoretical guidance, adopting a descriptive, at best probabilistic, and often atheoretical approach. This chapter showcases a theory-guided research design developed to better study crime and its causes, and their patterns of change over time, at the level of the person-environment interaction. To explain changes in crime involvement, one must study changes in its key drivers and their influence on criminal behaviour. These drivers have been identified in Situational Action Theory’s Developmental Ecological Model; subsequently, the Peterborough Adolescent and Young Adult Development Study (PADS+) has been designed to study them and their changes over time, as well as the social context in which they are embedded. This chapter presents the PADS+ study in detail and how it handles key challenges for developmental and life-course criminological research, including the challenge of acquiring appropriate samples of people and places; maintaining participation in longitudinal research; and collecting detailed high quality data about people and their social experiences as well as the social environments in which they spend their time and, crucially, the unique constellation of settings and circumstances to which each person is specifically exposed. Methods and data detailed include interviewer-led questionnaires, cognitive tasks tapping into executive functioning, space-time budgets which measure person-hours (over 500,000 across the studied period) spent by participants in specific settings and circumstances (geographically, temporally, and experientially); large scale, small area community surveys; UK Census data; event calendars; and criminal justice records.
Trajectories of Crime
Authors: Wikström Per-Olof H. , Treiber Kyle , Roman Gabriela Diana 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Key questions in developmental and life-course criminology are whether particular kinds of people exhibit particular patterns of crime involvement over time (e.g. adolescence-limited, life-course persistent, etc.), and if different patterns of crime involvement require different explanations. This chapter analyses pathways in crime from adolescence into young adulthood, identifying three crime trajectory groups—infrequent, adolescence-limited, and persistent—and exploring what makes them unique in terms of their offending. It discusses key theoretical and methodological challenges in analysing these patterns of crime involvement, including questions regarding their real-world significance. It examines if different kinds of people follow different crime trajectories, and if this indicates their crime is driven by distinct causal factors or different degrees of exposure to the same casual factors. The chapter concludes that while particular trajectory groups emerge from particular data reflecting the population from which it is drawn and their personal and social circumstances and experiences, the groups that emerge differ quantitatively (more than qualitatively) in these characteristics and experiences, implying that the causes of their crime may be the same, although their experiences of those causes are distinct. Subsequent chapters explore these causes to further delineate how and why the distinct patterns of crime observed emerge.
CODA
Authors: Wikström Per-Olof H. , Treiber Kyle , Roman Gabriela Diana 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
In this final chapter we summarise the key theoretical and empirical contributions this book has made to Developmental and Life-Course Criminology. Character, Circumstances, and Criminal Careers makes an argument for a more dynamic Developmental and Life-Course Criminology (DLC) by exploring the relationship between childhood predictors, such as social disadvantage and social adversity, and different trajectories of crime involvement. It also presents a special analysis of the age–crime curve and its explanation. An original theory, a uniquely detailed contemporary longitudinal study, and novel research methods and analytical techniques derive innovative findings about the relationship between individual and environmental factors across a critical developmental period.
Introduction
Authors: O’Brien Nanette 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Reading definitions of ‘civilization’ and ‘barbarism’ through the lens of history and sociology, the introduction shows how these concepts are interlinked with food behaviours and associations in the early twentieth century. Following the German sociologist Norbert Elias and the French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu, it is the human body that forms the basis for the discussion of civilization. Social norms across history shape this discussion. Modernists exploring the boundaries of the body also have reflected on the aesthetic movement of modernist primitivism, which derives from ideas about accessing an authentic, liberated self, parallel with the state of so-called ‘primitive’ man. The taboo of the body’s limits, what it contains, and what it consumes also play a role in the modernist conception of civilization and eating.
Culinary Impressionism
Authors: O’Brien Nanette 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Chapter 2: ‘Culinary Impressionism: Ford Madox Ford’s Agrarianism and Cookery’ connects Ford’s literary Impressionism with cookery, forging an integrated culinary/literary path in his writing. Culinary Impressionism illustrates the ways in which cookery and local agriculture contain the potential to establish individual creativity and international exchange, as represented in Ford’s memoir It Was the Nightingale and the novels The Good Soldier, Parade’s End tetralogy, and his late prose works, Provence and Great Trade Route. As a technique, culinary Impressionism creates a channel between both Ford’s creative fiction and life-writing and his cooking and cookery-writing. Following Ford in his travels, this chapter also addresses the transatlantic alimentary connections between England, France, and America, and also from the Far East to the West, which he explores in Great Trade Route. It is particularly through emphasis on the mobility of food and its possibility of uniting diverse cultures that Ford develops his theories of ‘civilization’ and ‘barbarism’.
Apples and Kitchens
Authors: O’Brien Nanette 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Chapter 4: ‘Apples and Kitchens: The Aesthetics and Politics of Modern Dining in Virginia Woolf’ returns the focus to Britain, contending that Woolf explored the gendered role of food in everyday life in order to reshape the aesthetics that were part of her ‘civilized’ Victorian heritage. Examining Bloomsbury definitions of civilization and barbarism, Woolf’s extra-national view of women’s social position aids her in thinking through civilization in her fiction like Jacob’s Room, and her more polemical works, A Room of One’s Own and Three Guineas. In a section on institutional food, archival research shows that the cost of Cambridge food in 1928 reveals that Woolf’s representation of the quality of the Cambridge food for women was most likely understated in A Room of One’s Own. The second part of the chapter focuses on representations of the pressures on unmarried or poor women dining in urban settings. Finally, reading Between the Acts and ‘Sketch of the Past’ in light of Woolf’s exploring of women’s societal positions, this chapter concludes that Woolf’s vision of civilization, while still rooted in a classist framework, aims to provide women with a sense of access to an equal intellectual and culinary community.
Pathways to Development
Authors: Sen Kunal , Hickey Samuel 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Under what conditions do governments become committed to and capable of delivering development? How can these processes be conceptualized and researched? And what (if anything) can be done to ‘get the politics right’ for development? This book draws on a major comparative research effort to present new answers to the question of how politics shapes development. It develops and applies a ‘power domains’ framework across multiple countries in the global south to uncover the political drivers of development across a wide range of policy areas, including economic growth, gender equity, health, and education. We find that a country’s pathway to development is shaped less by institutional type than by the nature of the politics and power relations that underpin these institutions and that shape how they actually function in practice within different policy domains. Our comparative analysis reveals two alternative pathways to developmental outcomes, each of which is defined by different configurations of power. The first involves a dominant ruling coalition with a strong developmental vision that faces an existential threat from social forces; the second involves competitive settlements within which the short-term vision of ruling elites and the politicization of the public bureaucracy are offset by the presence of strong and coherent coalitions within particular policy domains. We use these insights to generate innovative, practical suggestions for policy actors seeking to promote inclusive development that are aligned to critical differences in political context, the importance of state capacity, and the critical role played by reform coalitions.
Disrupting Shadow Banking or Crypto Shadow Banking
Authors: Dell'Erba Marco 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
A general question about the cryptoeconomy and decentralized finance (DeFi) is whether these new ecosystems rely on different mechanisms or are rather an imitation of the existing traditional economic and financial paradigms. In trying to answer this question, this chapter proposes the new label of crypto shadow banking. This chapter analyses the main characteristics of crypto shadow banking and identifies specific commonalities with the shadow banking system, specifically at the level of financial institutions and financial products. Finally, this chapter considers the systemic risks associated with crypto shadow banking and posits some policy considerations to address such risks. In particular, this chapter concludes that a better understanding of crypto shadow banking is essential to design some ex ante policy response, based on the problems experienced with traditional shadow banking. These ex ante measures may be helpful to mitigate the risks related to potential financial shocks and financial crises.
