“Flesh of Their Flesh, Bone of Their Bone”
Authors: Beard Lisa 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
This chapter identifies a concept of boundness in James Baldwin’s work and asks how it offers an alternative and embodied way to theorize racial identity, racialized violence, and interracial solidarity. The chapter traces how, in contrast to Black nationalist and integrationist accounts of racial domination, and as an intervention into white liberal forms of political identity, Baldwin demanded a reckoning with the enfleshed and intimate history of the production of race in the U.S. as the foundation for transformed forms of political identification. Baldwin’s invocation of a Black–white kinship narrative extended a longer lineage of appeals from Maria Stewart to Ida B. Wells and worked as a specific political and theoretical intervention into dominant racial discourses in his time. Finally, the chapter explores how Baldwin’s attention to the body in his theorization of race offers critical resources for anti-racist work today.
Introducing Philip V
Authors: Worthington Ian 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
This chapter discusses Philip’s birth and the controversy associated with the name of his mother. It also describes what he looked like, his upbringing and likely Greek education, his religion, and his influences, especially Philip II. The rest of the chapter surveys the reigns and exploits of kings from Philip II to Antigonus III Doson as background to Philip V assuming the throne in 221, and his early relations with Aratus of the Achaean League.
Reaping the Whirlwind
Authors: Trubowitz Peter 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
For much of the past seventy-five years, mainstream political parties were the bedrock of the Western liberal international order. As the vital center, they were a bulwark against political extremism from the political left and political right and the building blocks upon which the West’s shared commitment to the liberal order rested. In this chapter, we show that this is no longer true and consider its international implications. We show that, since the 1990s, the more mainstream parties promoted economic integration and multilateral governance the more fragmented Western party systems became. Parties running on anti-globalist platforms, especially on the far right, steadily increased their share of the national vote in Western democracies, putting mainstream parties on the political defensive. Meanwhile, the splintering of political authority in Western democracies has made them less effective and credible as models of good governance internationally. One consequence we show is that international efforts to deepen the liberal order through institutionalized cooperation have slowed significantly.
Where Do Fears Come From?
Authors: Harbin Ami 
Published: March 2023

AbstractChapter 1 asks, how do we come to fear the things we do? It begins with a picture of fear acquisition that often underlies our actions in response to our own fears and those of others. The picture makes it look like the fears we have are typically straightforward responses to interactions individuals have with threats in the world. The chapter identifies this picture in order to understand two key presumptions it involves and how they shape action. It then interrogates both presumptions, drawing on the risk perception literature to establish why the perceptions of threat may or may not reflect actual threats in the world, and also reviewing the literature on fear acquisition in developmental psychology to establish the foundation for a relational reorientation in understanding how we acquire the fears we do.
Compelling Fears
Authors: Harbin Ami 
Published: March 2023

AbstractChapter 3 asks why do we fear nonstatistical threats? It surveys “culture of fear” accounts that make the case for the role of politically motivated manipulation in generating fears of nonstatistical threats: political and corporate agents manipulate populations toward having fears that will serve political or economic goals. While these accounts offer valuable insights, they insufficiently consider what makes fearers prone to such manipulation. The chapter contends that, in some cases, people displace fears of greater threats (e.g., of suffering, death, loss, failure, and unpredictability) onto more manageable proxy threats (e.g., migrants) when the fears of great threats are too difficult to cope with. It concludes that processes of coming to fear proxy threats are more relational than psychoanalytic accounts of displacement suggest. Fears of proxy threats are relationally acquired, experienced, expressed, and interpreted. We should understand fears of great threats as ones agents compel: together, we push these fears away.
Controlling Threats
Authors: Harbin Ami 
Published: March 2023

AbstractChapter 4 offers an account of what too often happens to the nonstatistical threats that come to serve as proxies. Drawing on examples of actions taken against perceived threats (e.g., imprisonment, policing, vaccine hesitancy, anti-migration policies, and colonialism), it outlines five controlling strategies that fearers often employ against proxy threats: removal, escape, destruction, assimilation, and overpowering. The chapter contends that the five kinds of controlling strategies outlined are morally unacceptable when used against perceived but not actual threats. Evaluating the moral status of the use of controlling strategies against actual threats is complicated. Great threats cannot be controlled, and attempts to do so regularly result in the morally unacceptable cases of controlling proxy nonstatistical threats. In cases where other actual threats can be controlled, we must employ a fine-grained analysis of whether controlling strategies are the only or morally acceptable responses.
Boundaries of Viscerality
Authors: Wheeler Sara Louise 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
The Alien films form an interesting corpus for transdisciplinary scholarship. Their incorporation of science fiction motifs places them within the author’s favorite genre. However, they also depict gratuitous viscerality and viscosity, more readily associated with horror. Aesthetically, therefore, the author has always found these films instinctively repugnant and have a strong aversion to them. However, the films have enjoyed enduring popularity, and intense fandom of the evolving franchise is evident. This seems, therefore, to be a rich territory for considering the continuum of human reactions to viscera. The author has thus undertaken an introspective consideration of my responses to a variety of stimuli, within my quotidian milieu and in film, to try to make sense of my fear and disgust within the context of wider audience appreciation. Kristeva’s “abjection” provides a useful lens for viewing these subjectivities. My analysis brings new insights into the evolving role of popular culture within the modern psyche.
The Unescapable Labyrinth
Authors: Sloane Kenneth 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Alien3 (1992) remains the most controversial movie in the Alien franchise. The product of a notoriously troubled production that saw a series of writers and directors join and ultimately abandon the project, it was initially coldly received by critics and audiences alike and sullenly disowned by its director. For many fans it remains the juncture at which the franchise took a fatal misstep. This chapter outlines how Alien3’s difficulties ultimately lay in unresolved contradictions at the archetypal level. Employing Jungian archetypes as means of analysis the chapter describes how, while a close adherence to the “Overcoming the Monster” archetype was important to the success of the Alien (1979), its sequel, Aliens (1986), expanded on that primal foundation to incorporate new archetypal plot structures, specifically aspects of the “Rebirth” archetype, which allowed it to resonate powerfully with audiences. The chapter concludes that Alien3, possessed by a desire for a return to the essence of the original film, was coldly received due to its failure to expand and incorporate new archetypal plot structures in the manner its immediate predecessor had done so successfully.
Making the Mother
Authors: Rose Jonathan A. , Zitzelsberger Florian 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Building on the long-standing feminist tradition in Alien scholarship, this chapter examines the representations of motherhood in the latest additions to the Alien film series—Prometheus (2012) and Alien: Covenant (2017)—in connection with Alien3 (1992) and Alien: Resurrection (1997). This juxtaposition between sequels and prequels allows us to take into account the temporal implications of serialization on representation. Our consideration of motherhood across the series hence acknowledges the complexities of (multiple) origins in serialized narratives. We explore how motherhood is rendered the site of gender negotiation in the Alien series and argue that the mechanics of serialization at play—with the film pairs themselves constituting sequels while the first pair also functions as a prequel in the overall trajectory of the series—are used to retroactively infuse the original series with female agency. By focusing on procreation and creation as the films’ central discursive paradigms, we show that mothers in the Alien series are as much creators of alien lifeforms as they are creations of an abusive system based on asymmetrically expressed gender and power relations.
Meeting the Challenge
Authors: Hargittai Magdolna 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Women have shown excellence in science and mathematics over the centuries despite the persisting societal attitude that “science is not for women.” With seminal discoveries, some awarded Nobel Prizes, as well as special achievements of a great variety, women have demonstrated their talent and ability and their aptitude for hard work. Outstanding examples in mathematics and computer science, in recognizing the laws of nature, in genome engineering, in the understanding of how our organism works, and in the quest to protect our health against deadly viruses are manifestations of women’s contributions. The road to success, often more bumpy than that of their male counterparts, is presented for over 120 women: astronomers, mathematicians, physicists, crystallographers, chemists, biochemists, biologists, medical professionals, inventors and technologists, and ecologists. Compelling human stories about their lives and careers inform and entertain. Accounts of all science Nobel laureate women, others of discoveries of similar significance, and many more with special achievements make this a fascinating read and will enhance science awareness for all interested readers, women and men alike, helping some make career choices.
Symptoms and Scales
Authors: Simeon Daphne , Abugel Jeffrey 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
The chapter focuses on the many nuances of depersonalization/derealization (dpdr) experiences, and on how to measure dpdr symptoms. The meanings of the word “unreal,” as well as shifts in the phenomenology of the disorder over the past century are discussed. Two self-report questionnaires are provided and explicated. The Dissociative Experiences Scale is a 28-item questionnaire that measures not only dpdr, but also other dissociative symptoms such as absorption, amnesia, and identity alteration. The Cambridge Depersonalization Scale is a 29-item measure of dpdr specifically. The five dpdr domains of the Cambridge Depersonalization Scale (unreality of self, unreality of surroundings, numbing, perceptual alterations, time distortions) are presented and illustrated by personal vignettes.
The Blow of the Void and Spirituality
Authors: Simeon Daphne , Abugel Jeffrey 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Depersonalization and derealization, feelings of detachment from reality and/or the loss of the self, have appeared in literature and philosophy for centuries. This chapter explores the origins of the term depersonalization (Amiel’s Journal Intime), and descriptions of the depersonalization/derealization experience in works by Sartre and Camus, particularly Nausea and The Stranger. Similarities to Eastern no-self experiences are explored along with a variety of perspectives cited in Suzanne Segal’s Collision with the Infinite, Bernadette Roberts’s The Experience of No-Self, and the work of Virginia Woolf. The chapter also discusses the psychedelic experiences of Aldous Huxley and others and how they relate to depersonalization/derealization. Also, depersonalization-like experiences in relation to spiritual enlightenment are examined through scientific studies of the brain during meditation.
Digital Depersonalization
Authors: Simeon Daphne , Abugel Jeffrey 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
The social isolation created by the COVID-19 lockdown prompted a dramatic increase in use of the internet, Zoom, and Skype. It also brought greater attention to the subject of internet addiction. New books and studies took a closer look at problematic internet use and issues related to increased time spent online, as well as increased dependence on smartphones for social interaction. This may exacerbate existing mental problems, primarily in young people dealing with identity and self-definition. New studies also show that virtual reality can actually trigger depersonalization/derealization disorder temporarily in healthy individuals, and the symptoms can remain for weeks. Chronic internet use has also shortened our attention spans and actually changed our brains, according to some. What does this bode for the future? This chapter examines the blurring of real and cyber worlds through the eyes of recognized authorities in the field of cyberculture and its short- and long-term effects.
Microbiome
Authors: Szymanski Erika 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Louis Pasteur thought that bacteria had no place in wine, and that microbes other than fermentation yeast were best eradicated in the name of averting spoilage. He was wrong. Lactic acid bacteria, responsible for conducting the malolactic fermentation that benefits most wines, are now appreciated as valuable members of most winemaking teams. That recognition was hard-earned, as lactic acid bacteria have been difficult to control and achieving control has been wine microbiology’s baseline. Following the story of malolactic fermentation, a wider range of microbes are now being developed for controlled winemaking purposes. But is control the best way to think about human-microbe relationships in the first place? And what exactly counts as a spoilage microbe? This chapter discusses how the winemaking world recovered from the idea that all bacteria are bad, the limitations of imagining microbes as independent actors, and recent developments with non-Saccharomyces yeasts.
The Electorates’ Communication Dynamics
Authors: Lance Holbert R. , Ophir Yotam , Walter Dror , Pasek Josh , Jamieson Kathleen Hall 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
This chapter argues that the multiple electorates of 2020 existed in very different media environments insofar as they perceived the political media environment differently and consumed markedly different amounts and combinations of media. Although most voters were not ensconced in echo chambers, a smaller group of conservative voters was. Importantly, the 2020 electorates encountered and engaged different media outlets in different fashions. While some actively sought out these sources, others encountered them only incidentally, and still others actively avoided them. These action tendencies and their implications were as important as overall levels of exposure to various types of political information.
“Stop the Steal”
Authors: Levendusky Matthew , Pasek Josh , Jamieson Kathleen Hall 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Trump’s refusal to accept the election’s outcome triggered a fourth crisis, the crisis of democratic legitimacy, culminating in the January 6 assault on the nation’s Capitol. Where Part 1 of this chapter traces events surrounding disruption of the certification of the presidential election, this part of this chapter, Part 2, shows the responses of those in our panel to the “Stop the Steal” rhetoric and ensuing action. Not only does the chapter trace the evolution of beliefs about voter fraud, but it shows as well how the crisis of electoral legitimacy became one of democratic legitimacy. Specifically, the same factors motivating skepticism toward the election spilled over into support for the January 6 assault and informed a belief that violence is justified to protect the American way of life. These effects were especially pronounced for those who experienced status threat and who believed that racial and ethnic minorities do not face much discrimination in society.
Musical Flourishes
Authors: Coopersmith Jonathan 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
This chapter proposes that music does not inherently promote or obstruct well-being; rather, it can be employed with positive or negative results for both the listener and performer. Music is one of the most basic and innate forms of expression, developing organically over millennia along with other forms of communication like gesture and language. When considering the subject of music and well-being, one must first separate the various parameters of music (e.g., consonance and dissonance, melody, musical rhythm, harmony, and instrumentation) from the other art forms it often accompanies. This chapter explores what makes music unique among the arts, the ways in which music supports flourishing through various modes of engagement, and the ways in which music obstructs flourishing, especially among well-trained musicians. It also reveals how music could more effectively promote well-being, corresponding to Seligman’s PERMA model of happiness.
Jihadi Activism
Authors: Chernov Hwang Julie 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
This chapter explores the activities one engages in once they are a member of an extremist group. It highlights how most roles are quite mundane: dakwah (Islamic propagation), teaching, studying, and attending religious functions. It underscores how, often, those invited to participate in paramilitary training or terrorist attacks have a relationship with those facilitating entry into these activities and that participants in terrorist attacks often know each other. They may be relatives, friends, or even from the same nuclear family. Because the actions are so high risk due to their illegality and the likelihood of death-cum-martyrdom or execution, the most important priority in selecting members of terror cells is interpersonal trust. This chapter draws primarily on Indonesian cases.
Toward a Radical Epistemology of Protest
Authors: Medina José 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Chapter 1 develops an argument for obligations that we may have to protest injustice and to give proper uptake to protest. The chapter provides a general introduction to the normative framework and methodology of the book, articulating a rationale for focusing on the protests of the oppressed, on social movements of liberation (rather than in single-issue protest movements), and on uncivil protests that have a radical critical and transformative potential and involve the exercise of (what I call) the radical political imagination. The chapter also lays the foundations for an experiential, victim-centered approach to protest that gives a special communicative place and special communicative prerogatives to victims of injustice and their experiences in acts of protest and in grassroot protest movements.
The Coming of the New Deal
Authors: Pritchard A.C. , Thompson Robert B. 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
The pain and suffering of the Great Depression provoked a seismic shift in the role of the federal government, particularly visible in the rise of the administrative state. Securities law was at the center of this dramatic change. This chapter introduces the federal securities laws adopted between 1933 and 1940. Frankfurter enlisted his protégés James Landis, Ben Cohen, and Tom Corcoran to draft the Securities Act restricting public offering practices. This cemented Frankfurter’s central role in the New Deal and his eventual appointment to the Supreme Court. Frankfurter and his protégés would also play a critical role in the enactment of the Securities Exchange Act; the founding of the SEC; and passage of the Public Utility Holding Company Act, which called for the abolition of the sprawling conglomerates that dominated the public utility sector. The SEC would meet a hostile reception at the Supreme Court, from the “Four Horsemen,” the Court’s long-serving conservative members. The Court’s shift to a more accommodating approach is the first of several key shifts in judicial interpretation to securities law and regulation generally that we identify and explain in subsequent chapters.
Private Litigation
Authors: Pritchard A.C. , Thompson Robert B. 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
A second major judicial shift of the 1960s was opening the door for modern securities fraud class actions. The Court first recognized an implied private right of action under the federal securities laws in J.I. Case v. Borak in 1964, describing it as a “necessary supplement” to the SEC’s enforcement efforts. Expansive decisions followed, but the Court made a sharp reversal in the seventies under the influence of Lewis Powell. Implied rights of action were curtailed, with the Court narrowly construing the elements of rights previously recognized. The activism of the sixties was briefly revived after Powell’s retirement when the Court created the fraud-on-the-market presumption in Basic Inc. v. Levinson. Subsequent decisions have bounced back and forth between expansive and restrictive decisions. The only consistent theme was deference to choices made by Congress when it enacted the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
The Federal/State Flashpoint in Corporate Governance
Authors: Pritchard A.C. , Thompson Robert B. 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
From the adoption of the first federal securities law in 1933, Congress was intruding on what had been a traditional space of state regulation of corporations. Congress initially focused on disclosure, steering clear of most of the substantive rules of governance, an area traditionally left to the states. Concern over inadequate state responses to fiduciary misconduct in the 1950s and ’60s led to the federal regulation of insider trading and the creation of implied private rights of action. Those trends brought the phrase “federal corporate law” into wider circulation. Key decisions during the counterrevolution thwarted that development. As Chapter 7 develops, this change reflected the influence of Lewis Powell, but it would not have happened without the support of justices who had previously joined the expansive decisions of the prior era. The takeover era posed another federalism question, one that the Court struggled with. State anti-takeover statutes initially encountered a hostile reception at the Court in the 1970s and ’80s, but eventually received its approval, albeit in a somewhat roundabout way. Overall federalism issues have receded from the Court’s decisions, even as Congress has intervened more frequently to regulate the governance of public corporations.
