‘More hits than you can possibly imagine’
Authors: Butler Jan 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This chapter explores the role of music as a tool both to interpret Shakespeare for a modern young audience and to balance the conflicting demands and mythic tensions generated by creating a Hollywood version of Romeo and Juliet in Baz Luhrmann’s William Shakespeare’s Romeo + Juliet (1996). Although much of the focus on this film has been on the inclusion of pop music, the film soundtrack consists of a varied mixture of pre-existing and commissioned orchestral music and popular songs, crossing a wide range of genres and mixed in innovative ways; the big hits, when they came, mostly occurred after the film was released. The chapter analyses how Luhrmann and his team attempt to ‘translate’ the text through the use of music, arguing that Luhrmann uses familiar musical structures and rhythms to support the language and drama of the play for an audience new to the language of Shakespeare, while also drawing on the cultural connotations and flexibility of the musical score to interpret the text and play with the possibility of a Hollywood-style happy ending.
Tangled Relations
Authors: Isenberg Nancy 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This chapter explores the complex, reciprocal influences that weave back and forth through the performance histories of Shakespeare and of ballet, tracing their concerted force in shaping and reshaping commonplaces in Shakespeare, ballet, and the world at large. It offers a preliminary sketch of the historical landscape in which Shakespeare-ballet connections reside, laying out routes across time, and signalling landmarks both past and present that figure importantly in the development and our understanding of these connections. It analyses the pivotal role of Romeo and Juliet ballets danced to Prokofiev’s score, as Shakespeare ballets became prominent in this landscape in the mid-twentieth century. The mediation involving three voices and languages—verbal, corporeal, and musical—plays a central role in this discussion which includes first-hand accounts from present-day choreographers, composers, and dancers. Throughout, the chapter offers observations, reflections, and questions aimed at moving the young but burgeoning field of Shakespeare-and-Ballet forwards, pushing its boundaries and signalling new intersections. The larger aim of this chapter is to demonstrate the full measure of Shakespeare-ballet connections and their value in even wider cultural contexts than Shakespeare studies and dance studies.
Shakespeare’s Musical Time Signatures
Authors: Ortiz Joseph M. 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This chapter considers the ways in which Shakespeare incorporates a sense of musical time into his plays and poetry. While scholars have often considered how poetic ideas might inform Shakespeare’s deployment of music in his works, less attention has been given to the possibility that musical conventions also inform Shakespeare’s experiments with verse. Unlike poetic verse, musical time structures do not easily accommodate pentameter or the metric irregularities that Shakespeare and his contemporaries liked to create in poetry. However, musical time does allow for the possibility of measurable, meaningful silence. Renaissance music theorists in particular were concerned with notational systems that could reliably indicate intervals of performed silence. This chapter first considers how Renaissance musicians such as Morley and Dowland theorized and defined the musical ‘rest’. It then considers Shakespeare’s prosodic experiments in Richard II and Hamlet, arguing that Shakespeare attempts to incorporate intentional, measured silence by alluding to musical terms and taking advantage of metric irregularities. By applying musical rules to printed verse, Shakespeare effectively prompts his audience to hear silence not as meaningful, but as scripted.
‘A noise of thunder’
Authors: Hampton-Reeves Stuart 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This chapter focuses on several key moments when the history of jazz intersected with Shakespeare. It discusses, analyses, and contextualizes the three most significant jazz suites composed with a Shakespearean theme: Duke Ellington’s Shakespeare-inspired Such Sweet Thunder (1957), George Russell’s Othello Ballet Suite (1968), and Shakespeare Songs by Guillaume de Chassy and Christophe Marguet (2016). Shakespeare’s connection with jazz dates right back to the music’s early years, when both the word and the music were synonymous with modernity, youth, and Americanization. After several early attempts to set Shakespeare’s words to music, Ellington’s Such Sweet Thunder (written with Billy Strayhorn) was the first significant jazz composition to engage with Shakespeare in a creative and non-verbal way, blending swing harmonies with European atonal ideas. Russell’s experimental interpretation of Othello went even further in fragmenting the text into repeated motifs and polytonal soundscapes. The chapter concludes with a study of a recent Shakespeare suite, de Chassy and Marguet’s set of compositions inspired by lines in Shakespeare. For all these musicians, the plays are a starting point for musical creations which draw on the signature sounds of jazz and twentieth-century experiments in atonal and polytonal music.
Minority Representation
Authors: Park Kyungmee 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This chapter discusses gender, migrants, and generational representations in South Korean politics. Minority representation has been not debated in the political realm in earnest. Therefore, political minorities continue to serve minor roles in the National Assembly. Although the gender quota system has significantly contributed to the improvement of gender representation, the percentage of female incumbents in the National Assembly is lower than the critical point required to fundamentally transform the political realm. Migrant representation exists at a symbolic level and is yet to be addressed sufficiently. Generational representation has emerged in recent discussions. This is because political parties tend to consider gender, migrants, and generation to be representing marginal groups. This study shows that the improvement of minority representation depends on how political parties nominate their electoral candidates to receive increased seats.
Interest Group Politics
Authors: Lim Yoojin , Lee Yeonho 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Interest groups are organized in order to influence public policy by sharing common interests. This chapter aims to examine the most representative and well-known interest groups in South Korea, then historically analyses the changes in interest group politics within the context of democratization. In South Korea, interest group politics originally had responsive dependence on state power under the authoritarian regime. However, it has developed to competitive pluralism enough to check and supplement state power since the democratization of 1987 and has been characterized by conflictual pluralism since the 2010s. Finally, the chapter suggests the development for interest group politics in further pursuit of democracy in South Korea.
The Internet and Social Media
Authors: Jin Dal Yong 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This chapter examines the close relationships between the growth of new media technologies, including the internet, social media, and smartphones, and Korean politics. It analyses how the internet and social media have been influencing political messaging, voter behaviour, and the circulation of ideas in Korea, in which traditional media such as broadcasting and newspapers have played a major role in national politics, since the early 2000s onwards. It also explores how internet portals such as Naver and Daum (now Kakao) and mobile messaging services, such as KakaoTalk and Line, which account for over 70 per cent and 90 per cent of their respective markets, shape the political conversation and can act as gatekeepers for the circulation of ideas. Finally, it investigates whether the growth of these new media technologies has influenced people’s perceptions of politics and elections, which means that it discusses people’s use of new media technologies in their political practices.
Helenuctism and Leningrad’s Unofficial Culture
Authors: Savickij Stanislav 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This chapter presents Leningrad’s Khelenukty group, a literary association from the second half of the 1960s and the beginning of the 1970s, in the context of the late Soviet underground. Khelenuktism is described in a framework of traditions from avantgarde and absurdist literature. The chapter brings to light both futurist and OBERIU sources of Khelenukt aesthetics, as well as connections to works created in the circle of A. K. Tolstoy and the Zhemchuzhnikov brothers under the name of Kozma Prutkov and influences from older neo-avantgarde contemporaries (the Verpa group and writers in their orbit). Khelenuktism’s aesthetic foundations are reconstructed to correlate with the group’s active practice of the art of living. Artists’ behavior, which had evolved in post-Romantic tradition, Symbolism, and the avantgarde into a full-fledged artistic experiment, was implemented in “dramagedies,” an experimental genre invented by the Khelenukty. Members of the group followed in the footsteps of futurism to create an absurdist theater of everyday life at the same time as artists elsewhere were elaborating the aesthetics of the “happening” (without, by the way, any direct links) and managed to free themselves and other participants from the regulatory framework circumscribing Soviet life.
Arkady Dragomoshchenko and Leningrad Cultural Underground
Authors: Pavlov Evgeny , Ioffe Dennis 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This chapter considers the place in the Leningrad Cultural Underground of the poet Arkady Dragomoshchenko (1946–2012), one of the most important Russian poets of the post-war generation and, arguably, Russia’s most important global poet of the post-Soviet age. Although an essential presence in the Leningrad cultural avant-garde of the 1970s and 1980s, he was never part of any schools or movements. While his work transcended the generic, formal, and thematic boundaries of what was written by his peers at the time, it also transcended the boundaries of the Russian poetic tradition. The chapter examines Dragomoshchenko’s lifelong preoccupation with the groundless foundations of language as it situates his unique poetics in the context of his close engagement with literary, musical, and visual experiments of the Leningrad underground and identifies the roots of his interest in global poetics.
Timur Novikov and the New Artists
Authors: Andreeva Ekaterina 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
The chapter focuses on a circle of nonconfomrist artists that formed around Timur Novikov in the early 1980s. The circle’s multimedia practices absorbed multiple influences, but, most importantly, ludic aesthetics of Russian Futurists and OBERIU. Their interest in avant-garde non-art was not tantamount to a rejection of such traditional techniques as painting and drawing. Their painterly practice was “wild”: they immersed themselves in an unbounded expressionism, a style that had been vigorously vilified and persecuted by the normative Soviet aesthetic. Through the analysis of the New Artists’ multimedial works, actions, and innovative genres the article traces the group’s evolution and establishes the connection of its shared aesthetic with such global trends as the new wave, Тransavantgarde and environmental art of the early 1980s. By turning the most unexpected, ordinary things into art, the New Artists environmentally revitalized life and culture.
A Relational Approach to Law and Its Core Concepts
Authors: Nedelsky Jennifer 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This introduction to relational feminism builds on Nedelsky’s approach in which relationships are central to all human beings, not just to women. A relational approach to law provides both a clearer analysis of what is at stake in disputes over law and policy and a framework for assessing proposals for change. The basic claims are that relationships make possible the lived reality of values like security or autonomy, and law is one of the primary means of shaping relationships. Relational feminism reconceptualizes core concepts, like autonomy; links them to underlying conceptions of the self; and explains their role in law. The examples show the benefit of a relational approach to self, autonomy, and rights (and law more broadly). From questions of hierarchy and racism to environmental harm to mental health and a reconceptualization of property, the chapter works through the application of a relational approach.
Gender Disruption, Amelioration, and Transformation
Authors: Dixon Rosalind , Loughland Amelia 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
American legal feminism has many different variants, each offering important insights. The danger, however, is that this complexity to feminist legal thought may cause some lawyers and scholars to “tune out” to feminist insights. We provide a way of understanding these various insights, which acknowledges their complexity but seeks to make them more accessible. To do so, we propose the idea of feminist “disruption,” “amelioration,” and “transformation” as organizing principles that underpin feminist thought, in different ways and to different degrees, but which provide a common language for understanding new and older feminisms. We illustrate this approach, and its potential benefits, through the lens of a feminist analysis of COVID-19 and its impact.
Imperialism from the Eleventh Century to the Twenty-First Century
Authors: Bagchi Amiya Kumar 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
From the eleventh century onward, a number of city states arose in Italybased on communes, free of feudalism, and controlled by the city’s merchants and financiers. The city states went into a rapid decline with the rise of nation states in northern Europe. Following the logic of capitalist accumulation, the new nation states acquired colonies from the beginning. England already had its oldest colony in Ireland, conquered by Henry II in the late twelfth century. From the seventeenth century, it acquired colonies in North America and the Caribbean, and in the eighteenth century it conquered most of India, which became its most valuable prize. After defeating France in 1815, it became the sole superpower until it was challenged by imperial Germany in World War I. After the interregnum of the interwar years, the United Statesemerged as the most powerful nation economically and militarily, its paramountcy being challenged by the Soviet Union until it went into terminal decline from the late seventies. By 2020its superpower status is wasbeing challenged by China and Russia. In the meantime most other European countries had acquired colonies. Most of these colonies became formally independent after World War II, some not until the late seventies.
Global Value Chains and Global Value Transfer
Authors: Newman Susan 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This chapter discusses the restructuring of production that has taken place over the last thirty years, namely the rise of global value chains/global production networks, and how this has shaped the transfer of value from the Global South to the Global North via direct channels of appropriation along these chains and the tendency towards impoverishment of workers engaged in primary production associated with this. In addition, this chapter discusses new financial avenues for the appropriation of value created in the Global South that have opened up as global value chains intersect with chains of finance such as in the financialization of commodity chains, and the rise of global wealth chains as routes via which multinational corporations channel value created along global value chains in order to avoid fiscal claims, legal obligations, or regulatory oversight. Finally, the chapter considers the future of global value chains under the ongoing crisis of capital.
Tertiarization, Financialization, and Economic Imperialism
Authors: Blomberg Kalle 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This chapter sets out to explain the increasing share of value associated with services in the core of the global economy. In mainstream accounts this value is synonymous with the productivity of these activities themselves and assumed to derive from their human capital content. Yet the concept of value creation underlying the latter theory can be shown to rely on what Marx called fictitious capital. It is in fact the proliferation of this form of capital that has characterized neoliberal development in the financialized core of the global economy. This phenomenon effectively obscures the difference between productive and non-productive activity in capitalist terms, and that both the expansion of finance and the growth of services in these countries are underpinned by an ever larger surplus value extracted in the dual exploitation of labour and nature in low-wage countries.
The Capitalist World System and Economic Imperialism in East Asia
Authors: Li Minqi 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Historically, East Asia accounted for about two-fifths of the world population and economic output. It was incorporated into the capitalist world-system in the mid-nineteenth century. As the East Asian countries responded to the challenges imposed by the British-led Western capitalism, their economic and geopolitical fortunes diverged. While China, Korea, and Taiwan were peripheralized, Japan became a member of the imperialist club by the early twentieth century. After World War II the US-led geopolitical restructuring created favourable political conditions for economic take-off in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and eventually China. As China becomes the world’s largest economy measured by purchasing power parity and makes investments throughout the world, a growing number of scholars now call China a new imperialist power. This chapter evaluates the value flows (represented by labour time embodied in export commodities) between China, Japan, South Korea, and the rest of the world. It is expected that the results should show that China continues to transfer more surplus value to the rest of the world than it receives from the rest of the world. China would be best characterized as a non-imperialist semi-peripheral country. As China’s demand for energy commodities and raw materials grows, it intensifies global ecological and geopolitical contradictions. These contradictions are unlikely to produce a world war fought between China and the United States. But it does contribute to the acceleration of global environmental crisis and sets limits to China’s long-term economic growth.
Beyond the “Abyssal Line”
Authors: Cormack Donna , Toko King Paula 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Colonization fundamentally disrupted Indigenous knowledge systems, establishing epistemic hierarchies that privilege Eurocentric colonial epistemologies and methodologies. In this chapter, the authors explore how epistemic hierarchies are (re)produced in the current context of “big data” and datafication, in particular for mokopuna Māori in the nation-state known as New Zealand (NZ). (We use the concept of “mokopuna Māori” to refer to and position Māori babies, children, and young people within the Māori world as the sacred reflection of our ancestors and a blueprint for future generations.) The chapter then considers the possibilities for Indigenous epistemic justice in the “zone of nonbeing” or beyond the “abyssal line.”
Nora Douglas Holt’s Teachings of a Black Classical Canon
Authors: Ege Samantha 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This chapter explores Nora Douglas Holt’s work as a critic, composer-performer, lecturer, and radio host. It examines her curation of an early twentieth-century Black classical canon across these roles and considers how she used her access to public and influential fora to deepen her audiences’ musical appreciation and understanding. Holt’s early career activity in the Pacific Northwest and Chicago and mid- to late career activity in New York City are contextualized in the multifaceted tradition of Black women’s intellectual work. Attention is given to the ways in which her teachings of a Black classical canon interacted with the United States’ changing sociocultural composition.
Radical Music Theory
Authors: Stover Chris 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This chapter draws upon radical pedagogy, anarchafeminist theory, decolonial theory, and more to begin to rethink what music theory teaching and learning is capable of as community-facing, creative, transformative practice. It orbits around three interrelated fields of activity through which music theory becomes essentially “public.” First is a refusal of the theory–practice divide in favor of a prolonged commitment to the irreducible, productive entanglement of the two: all theory is practice, and all practitioners produce theory in some important way. Second is a reimagining of music theory as a space for dialogue across and within diverse communities of practice. And third is positioning music theory as transformative: not just descriptive of existing or historical practices, but as opening onto ever new modes of creativity.
Cross-Cultural Empirical Aesthetics
Authors: Sun Xiaolei , Che Jiajia 
Published: February 2022

AbstractPeople across cultures appreciate objects for their aesthetic qualities everywhere. It is the core issue of cross-cultural empirical aesthetics to explore whether the underlying psychological processes of aesthetic preference are universal. Here the authors review the empirical evidence on both visual aesthetic and music appreciation in different cultures and give an overview of universal psychological and cognitive processes underlying aesthetic appreciation. The authors conclude that people share a common physiological basis and cognitive processes in most cultures in spite of diverse influential patterns varying across cultures. Further research should provide deeper causal understanding of both cross-cultural universality and differences in aesthetic appreciation.
Design and Aesthetics
Authors: Hekkert Paul 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Although design objects have been and still are created to serve a function and perform well, they also have to look or feel nice. Aesthetic pleasure in the context of designed artifacts is a reflection of how well the designer did his or her job. This chapter argues that designers should aim at resolving conflicts in order to arrive at a beautiful design. These conflicts can be of different kinds, but always entail a tension between—metaphorically speaking—needs for safety and accomplishment. Various aesthetic principles, such as unity-in-variety, Most Advanced Yet Acceptable, and Maximum Effect for Minimal Means, are proposed that all follow this logic of striking a careful balance between opposing forces. The chapter concludes with some speculative suggestions on how this safety-accomplishment framework could also be used to predict the aesthetic pleasantness of design ideas, concepts, and consequences.
Early Logic and Language
Authors: Crain Stephen 
Published: February 2022

AbstractThe present chapter charts the course of the acquisition of logical expressions in child language. The focus is on the meanings that child language learners initially assign to logical expressions, how children’s meanings compare with the meanings assigned by adults, and how the meanings of the logical expressions of natural language correspond to the meanings that are assigned to the corresponding vocabulary of classical logic. We review the findings of several cross-linguistic experimental studies investigating children’s interpretation of sentences that contain different combinations of logical expressions. In general, the findings of research indicate a strong overlap in the meanings that children assign to logical expressions and the meanings assigned to the corresponding expressions in classical logic.
