Public Health Frames Its Successes Incorrectly
Authors: Stein Michael D. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Social impact bonds typically take up prevention issues, promising savings for some outcome (a reincarceration, a traffic accident) in some imagined far-off time, which people like to believe may never happen to any member of a population (prisoners, drivers). Public health has a future-focused perspective. Because the outcome is far off, such public health interventions do not address an imminent threat that requires an immediate fix, the kind of outcome often deemed medical. Medicine has a present-focused perspective. Why, as a society, are we willing to pay for cure (the medical perspective) and not for prevention (the public health perspective)?
Some Other Stars
Authors: Goudie Andrew S. , Brunsden Denys 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
A rather diverse group of both amateurs and professionals, geologists and non-geologists, medics and clergymen was characterised by a great range of accomplishments and interests. They included Eleanor Coade, who made artificial rocks; Peter Orlando Hutchinson, the polymath from Sidmouth; John Clavell Mansel-Pleydell, a soldier; John Coode, an engineer; Vaughan Cornish, who helped to establish National Parks; John Green, from the colonial service; Ernest Burton, an artist; Marie Stopes, famed for her work on birth control but also a paleobiologist of note; and Alan Carr, who worked for the Nature Conservancy and became the foremost authority on the geomorphology of Chesil Beach.
How Annuities Can Mitigate Uncertainty and Improve Retirement
Authors: Baily Martin Neil , Harris Benjamin H. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
A more secure retirement involves managing retirement risks. Perhaps the most prevalent risk involves uncertainty around the length of life. People do not know how long they will live and risk running out of money. Annuity products can help address that risk. These products are complex and can resemble either an insurance product or a financial investment. A simple annuity more closely resembles an insurance product, as the purchaser trades some percentage of their retirement assets for a steady stream of income for life. To economists, that seems like an attractive option to reduce risk, but few people buy annuities. The chapter explores the reasons why the annuity market is so thin and what might be done to revive it, including looking at a new and promising product, a deferred annuity—essentially an insurance policy designed to protect against the financial concern of living beyond one’s life expectancy.
A Eunuch in a Harem
Authors: Glinsky Albert 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
The Abominatron was an unexpected hit at the 1964 Audio Engineering Society (AES) convention, attracting the attention of luminaries and musical heavy-hitters such as Alwin Nikolais, Eric Siday, Lejaren Hiller, and people from the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center. Bob found himself taking orders for modules, something he’d never anticipated. Nikolais and Siday become his first customers. But in the meantime, he needed to roll out the high-end amp (dubbed the PMS-15) because the business had lost $28,000. Tooling up to produce 100, he ended up selling three—a catastrophic end to a two-year project. But success at AES gave him hope and he threw himself into hawking the new equipment, taking an ad in a 1965 AES journal, and attending the Music Teacher’s National Association (MTNA) convention. No sales were secured at the convention, but Bob met George Kelischek, an instrument builder who would become very influential in his life.
The Plastic Cow Goes Moooooog
Authors: Glinsky Albert 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Chapter 14 starts to document Bob’s best year: 1969. The instrument had a cameo role in the first moon landing, with a Mort Garson score played on CBS-TV to accompany space flight images. The Beatles incorporated it in their Abbey Road album (“Maxwell’s Silver Hammer,” “Here Comes the Sun,” “Because,” and “I Want You”). Mick Jagger’s personal Moog synth was seen in the film Performance, and Jagger wrote a short lick on it for the Kenneth Anger film, Invocation of My Demon Brother (though the sound he used was patched in by Jon Weiss). A spate of recordings made with the Moog—and incorporating the name in the title—sold well but upset Bob, not only because he saw no royalties from them, but because he hated their commercial quality. Chris Swansen was hired as composer-in-residence at the Trumansburg factory. Musicians’ unions were increasingly nervous about Moogs replacing musicians.
A Palace Revolution
Authors: Glinsky Albert 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
“The beast” still held an influential position in recordings; it was even the signature of a new genre, “krautrock.” But all signs pointed to its displacement by a portable instrument. Bob saw this at the MENC Convention, where a new competitor’s synth, the VCS3 (produced by Peter Zinovieff) was shown. Zinovieff, along with Suzanne Ciani and Joel Chadabe, pioneered automated electronic music. Bob got the message. He and the staff scrambled to ready the Minimoog C for an unveiling at the Fall AES meeting. But there was a swarm of competitors at AES, too: EML, the VCS3, and another newcomer, Alan R. Pearlman’s ARP. To save the company, Moog engineers disobeyed Bob’s orders and put the Minimoog into production. The “Minimoog D” was essentially the same as the Mini C, but with modulation wheels, a design that would set the standard for most portable electronic keyboards in the future.
Genius for Hire
Authors: Glinsky Albert 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
At Kurzweil, Bob pushed the K250 keyboard, but was deeply unhappy and quietly continued his MTS work on the side. He received Hollywood’s RockWalk award. At Moog, Memorymoogs weren’t selling and Dave Van Koevering brokered a deal to hawk them to churches as the Sanctuary Synthesizer. Three years into Bob’s stint at Kurzweil, Aunt Florence died and the Moogs’ inheritance allowed them to return to North Carolina. Running out of money, Bob took a teaching position at UNC Asheville but soon quit. He produced the Big Briar Series 91 theremins. John Eaton premiered the MTS keyboard. Dave Luce sold the Moog Company and by 1993 it was completely out of business. Bob was offered the chance to buy the remaining inventory and the Moog trademark, but passed—a decision he would later regret. Michelle and Laura Moog married in 1993 as Bob and Shirleigh’s marriage began to crumble.
Support the Troops
Authors: Millar Katharine M. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
This work examines support the troops discourses in the US and UK during the war on terror (2001–2010). These practices are important in their own right and a window into a broader transformation in liberal military-society relations. Few people now serve in the armed forces but gendered and sexualized cultural narratives of warfare continue to reproduce a strong connection between military service, citizenship, and normative heteromasculinity—the liberal military contract. It argues that supporting the troops reflects a gendered civilian anxiety arising from non-service in wartime, wherein normative citizenship and normative masculinity are apparently inaccessible to a large number of citizens. The book works through the ways that support the troops discourses attempt to address and resolve this anxiety by recasting support for the military as itself the hallmark of citizenship and masculinity. On that basis, supporting the troops is not really about the military at all, or even the legitimacy of war, but rather society’s maintenance of appropriate civil-military relations. Support is also increasingly transnationalized, as a seemingly apolitical vector for racialized, colonial hierarchy. Military support is the new military service—with a number of negative implications for democratic dissent. War opposition is sharply constrained, as martial obligation makes it possible to contest one war, on behalf of the troops, but not the practice of war itself. Overall, the book demonstrates the importance of gendered solidarism and loyalty, rather than solely dynamics of enmity and antagonism, in producing political community, the transnational liberal order and liberal wars.
The Mongols
Authors: Fettweis Christopher J. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Mongol strategy is the subject of Chapter 3. Never before or since has a state risen so rapidly out of obscurity to conquer such a large portion of the Earth. Perhaps the only thing more amazing than their defeat of so many powerful neighbors was their ability to maintain their status and keep the empire together. Their rule was as unlikely as their rise. The Mongol approach to governance was unique in history: unlike so many other imperial powers, Genghis and his successors did not seek to remake the societies they overran. They had no interest in “civilizing” other people, or uplifting or Mongolizing. Instead, they followed the opposite path, remaking themselves in order to maintain power. This did not sit well with the more conservative elements among them, and the empire eventually tore itself apart.
The Ottoman Empire
Authors: Fettweis Christopher J. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Though its fortunes rose and fell over time, the Ottoman Empire dominated its region for centuries and bridged the medieval and early modern worlds. For hundreds of years after they breached the walls of Constantinople, the Ottomans ruled over the most valuable and turbulent part of the world. Theirs is a story of restrained ambition: Ottoman grand strategists consciously avoided overextension by concentrating on limits, both at home and abroad. How they managed to rule a very troubled region and hang on to their polyglot empire for so many centuries is the subject of the fourth case.
Imperial Spain
Authors: Fettweis Christopher J. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
The grand strategy of Imperial Spain is essentially a story of five Habsburg emperors, two Charleses, and three Philips. These men oversaw the meteoric rise and gradual decline of an empire forged by both conquest and royal marriage, and a dynasty that was easily the most powerful state in early-modern Europe. That dominance was short-lived, however. The fate of the Habsburgs is a direct outcome of a failed, obdurate grand strategy, one that did not allow for any meaningful evolution in the face of changing external circumstances. Spain’s decline had its upsides, though, since by all reasonable measures its people were better off after jettisoning the expense and pretense of empire. The Spanish won by losing.
Conclusion
Authors: Fettweis Christopher J. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
The book's final case study examines the most consequential of the great European empires. The dominance of the British did not last as long as that of some of the others in this volume, but it had greater long-term implications for the rest of the world. British leaders were able to adapt their strategic thinking in important ways, as they grappled with the apparent contradiction of being simultaneously liberal and imperial, and as governing and economic philosophies underwent substantial evolution. In the end, unlike the Spanish emperors, British leaders managed decline with aplomb and wisdom. Like Spain, however, the loss of empire did not prove catastrophic for the British people. Retrenchment, if sensibly handled, need not result in social or geopolitical disaster.
Introduction
Authors: Lynne Viola , Marc Junge 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
The introduction provides an overview of the historiography and chronology of Stalin’s Great Terror, exploring in particular the “purge of the purgers” or the “Beria Purge.” This purge began at the end of 1938 and targeted select NKVD operatives for arrest and trial, continuing into the war years. Stalin scapegoated these NKVD operatives for the “excesses,” or atrocities, of the Great Terror, a policy that he himself had created. The introduction explores the reasons behind this purge and the new sources available for its study in the security archives of the SBU, Ukraine’s former KGB archive.
“The Party Will Demand a Full Reckoning”
Authors: Vasylyev Valeriy , Podkur Roman , Belokowsky Simon 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
In Chapter 1, Vasylyev and Podkur explore the activities of the Vinnitsa Oblast NKVD during mass operations. The focus of their attention is on Uspenskii-appointed Ivan Mikhailovich Korablev, who led the Vinnitsa UNKVD from May 1938 until his attempted suicide in January 1939, as well as his assistants. Following their arrests, the main characters of this story are first sentenced to death, followed by a commutation of their sentences to ten years in the Gulag. None of them served their term; instead, they were mobilized to the front in 1942, like many other incarcerated NKVD operatives, and lived fairly normal lives after the war. Vasylyev and Podkur also present information on the second wave of arrests of perpetrators in the 1950s after Stalin’s death in 1953. In that phase, the case against the Vinnitsa NKVD perpetrators was reopened, but ultimately dismissed, showing the limited effectiveness of the “purge of the purgers.”
“A Sacrificial Offering”
Authors: Junge Marc , Hale-Dorrell Aaron , Cormier Caroline 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Junge’s focus of attention in Chapter 3 is on Nikolaev Oblast, where there were six trials of NKVD operatives for the violation of socialist legality. Junge explores what arguably was the most important of these trials, the trial of P. V. Karamyshev, the head of the Nikolaev UNKVD, along with three of his associates. The story centers on a fire in one of Nikolaev’s sensitive defense-related shipbuilding factories, which were under intense scrutiny in 1938, and the two trials that followed Karamyshev’s arrest. Junge examines the Nikolaev defendants’ defensive tactics at their trials, their self-image as “good Stalinists,” the role of witnesses, and, ultimately, the death penalty served on Karamyshev.
“This Is How You Interrogate and Secure Testimony”
Authors: Rossman Jeffrey J. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
In Chapter 7, Rossman focuses on the investigation and trial of Georgii Kocherginskii, who served as the head of the Transportation Department (DTO) of the Northern Donetsk Railway NKVD. This study of a little-known, but important, agency within the NKVD argues that situational factors served as a primary context for the activities and motivations of Kocherginskii and his colleagues. Fear of punishment and the habit of “following orders” combined with ambition and the desire to please superiors to explain the motivations of these NKVD operatives. Additionally, Kocherginskii clearly believed that class enemies permeated the Soviet Union, making him a typical example of a “true believer” in Stalin’s Soviet Union.
The COVID Stress Test
Authors: Kirp David , Wechsler Marjorie , Gardner Madelyn , Tinubu Ali Titilayo 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
COVID-19 posed unprecedented challenges for public schools nationwide. It was a stress test, requiring districts to implement new policies—notably, shifting to a virtual format—on the run. Union City, Union, and Roanoke each developed effective responses. Union City enlisted a cache of coaches to prepare a new curriculum appropriate for online education and held professional development sessions nearly constantly. It supported students by distributing laptops and delivering meals. Union built on its already-existing virtual learning program and worked hard to supply all students with technology and online access. It provided teachers with professional development in distance learning. And when students were able to return to the classroom, the district ensured their safety by requiring masks in the teeth of a hostile political environment. Roanoke was initially unprepared but school resumed in fall 2020 with a hybrid schedule, enabling students to learn part-time in person, masked, and part-time virtually.
Conclusion
Authors: Coates D. Justin 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
This chapter briefly sums up the main themes of the book: first that unificationist accounts of agency lack argumentative support, and second, that because well-functioning agency requires normative competence, regular openness to ambivalence should be familiar to each of us. The chapter (and the book) concludes by briefly exploring how the account of well-functioning agency offered in In Praise of Ambivalence might lead us to feel, if not happy in the face of ambivalence-meriting conflicts, less distressed and better prepared to resolve those conflicts successfully. Regular experiences of ambivalence thus become expected and manageable element of the well-functioning agent’s life.
The Shadow of Childhood Harm Behind Prison Walls
Authors: Wolff Nancy 
Published: November 2022

AbstractPrison. Just the word alone conjures up images of harshness and negativity. While the word criminal summons feelings of fear, disgust, anger, aggression, and revenge. These near-universal feelings about criminals are the foundation of prisons as places where harm, through neglect, indifference, and disregard, festers and replicates like a virus. For this reason, any conversation about prison and its potential for anything other than harm must start with the people who live there. In The Shadow of Childhood Harm Behind Prison Walls, the author, Nancy Wolff, uses a balance of compassion and evidence to take readers through the lives of people who end up inside prison. Guided by the words of those who have lived the experience of harm, she weaves an expansive body of research that lays bare the harm that began in childhood (the curse) and its subsequent shadow that later, during adolescence and adulthood, manifested as harm to self and others, eventually culminating in crime that resulted in incarceration, where harm, once again, repeated like a bad dream. With authority and rigor, Wolff employs ethics, law, science, and compassion to call out the anti-humanism roots underpinning the (un)intelligent design of the current correctional system and rings in a new way of intelligently designing and maintaining a just, fair, and person-centered system of asylum, of and for humanity.
A Community-Engagement Strategy for Harm Recovery in Correctional Settings
Authors: Wolff Nancy 
Published: November 2022

AbstractCorrectional settings are analogous to neighborhoods. Neighborhood conditions are improved through community-development (capacity-expanding) efforts. The community-engagement approach offered in Chapter 8 aims to change the mix of healing and harm inside prison. The approach described is resident-centric and works with residents to create and sustain a neighborhood where residents and staff work together to reduce harm and to increase healing. Two case studies describe how community engagement could be used to transform the social environment of prisons and create a service delivery system with best value. Growing harm-informed and sensitive environments to support harm-recovery programs is feasible inside prisons if the environment is imbued with values, partnerships, and resources that socialize and support healing, recovery, and rehabilitation. Community empowerment is a way to build the capacity of prison communities to change their conditions and cultures toward healing and away from harm.
Good and Mad
Authors: Bendroth Margaret 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Good and Mad tells the story of women in liberal Protestant churches, the so-called mainline, during a complex era, after the suffrage amendment and before the advent of second wave feminism. These socially progressive churchwomen, predominantly white but also African American, coastal urbanites as well as salt-of-the-earth Southerners and Midwesterners, campaigned for human rights and global peace, worked for interracial cooperation, and opened the path to women’s ordination—and chose to do so within churches that denied them equality. Historian Margaret Bendroth explores the paradoxes and conflicting loyalties of churchwomen in this “between time,” interweaving a larger story with vignettes of individual women who knew both the value of compromise and the cost of anger. This lively historical account, told with women at the center rather than the periphery, incorporates the efforts of churchwomen from the rural South to the halls of the World Council of Churches in Geneva, Switzerland. It explains not just how feminism finally took root in American mainline churches but also why change was so long in coming.
Philosophy Inside Out
Authors: Kitcher Philip 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
This chapter begins with a fable, depicting a culture in which the exercises through which professional musicians are trained are given pride of place through competitive events, while the classics of the repertoire are left to “the second-raters.” The fable serves as background to a review of the contemporary state of Anglophone philosophy. What is taken as “core philosophy” is often of negligible value, while supposedly peripheral work in “applied philosophy” answers to genuine cultural needs. Philosophers have, for example, contributed to improved understandings of race and gender, helped to develop methods of causal analysis, illuminated central economic concepts, and developed important themes from literary works. Philosophy would be healthier if it were turned inside out.
Letter to Some Young Philosophers
Authors: Kitcher Philip 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
This chapter takes the form of a letter, addressed to young philosophers. It responds to a frequently asked question posed by people sympathetic to the reforms envisaged in this book: How can someone starting out on a philosophical career afford to rebel against the standards of the profession? Four models are envisaged and their pluses and minuses are reviewed. The first three are not entirely satisfactory, and the fourth is likely to be available only under special conditions. The chapter concludes with some suggestions about how a reform movement might make the renewal of philosophy less threatening to the young philosophers who identify with it.
No Professor's Lectures Can Save Us
Authors: Stuhr John J. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
The book draws critically on the full range of the writings of William James—his psychology, theory of belief and truth, radical empiricism, pluralism, and accounts of religion, ethics, politics, and society—to develop a powerful case for an original pragmatic worldview and temperament resonant with James’s philosophy. In a manner that avoids the “vicious intellectualism” James criticized, the book engages more than a century of scholarship on James, and places him in conversation with both his contemporaries and more recent writers. The author moves both with James and at times against James to address and illuminate central issues about the nature of the self, freedom, morality, community, truth, reality, and possibility. The chapters take up James’s views on faith and freedom; habit, attention, and flourishing; inclusive and ethical lives; democratic politics; the temperament of pragmatism; a radically empirical ontology of relations; and a pluralistic and unfinished universe. The focus throughout is practical, aiming to show the differences in concrete lives that it makes to take up a broadly Jamesian pragmatic, radically empirical, and pluralistic personal perspective across the fallible and “ever not quite” endeavors of our finite lives. “From this unsparing practical ordeal,” James noted, “no professor’s lectures and no array of books can save us.” In this spirit, this book does not pretend to provide, by itself, salvation. Instead, it effectively develops insights in the writings of William James that continue to constitute invaluable resources for new problems, new possibilities, and new forms of personal and social life.
