Corporate Financial Reporting and Performance A New Approach
Önder Kaymaz, Izmir University of Economics, Turkey, Özgür Kaymaz, Training Directorate, Turkish Airlines Inc, A. R. Zafer Sayar, Union of Chambers of Certified Public Accountants of Turkey
This book introduces a new approach to corporate financial reporting by investigating goal incongruence (GING) in the context of the
principal and agent (PA) setting. The authors argue that improving the method for the disclosure of information would not only increase the quality of corporate financial information and reporting but also reduce the possibility of any GING arising. This book presents the financial implications of international accounting and financial reporting standards (IAS and IFRS), presenting numerous real-life situations, cases, examples and implications to reveal how GING might influence the implementation of corporate financial reporting of profit volumes and sizes, which are the leading drivers of and widely accepted proxies for corporate financial performance.

Intercultural Management A Case-Based Approach to Achieving Complementarity and Synergy
Edited by Christoph Barmeyer, University of Passau, Germany,Peter Franklin, HTWG Konstanz University of Applied Sciences, Germany
’I think the academic level of the textbook is appropriate; it sounds to me like a final-year UG or MBA text. The cases included in the summary do seem to be of a good level. The text sounds interesting but some of the students might find the style a bit overly academic or technical (though some lecturers, myself included, might find that a good selling point). the diversity-focused approach is in line with the approach I take in my teaching. [I like] The European focus, and although I think ‘synergistic’ is too much of a buzzword, we do need more textbooks which go beyond the traditional national-business-systems approach.’ - Fiona Moore, Royal Holloway University of London, UK
A case-based examination of issues in international management that helps students explore theory in the context of real-life practical situations. A focus on skills-development prepares students for future careers in international management. Cases are from a range of countries including central and east Europe as well as the BRIC economies.

Women and Transition Reinventing Work and Life
Linda Rossetti, Writer, USA
'In the 1970s, Betty Friedan touched a deep chord in American women when she addressed ‘the problem that has no name’ in The Feminine Mystique. Linda Rossetti taps this generation’s ‘problem that has no name’: Transitions. Original, insightful, personal and
yet universal, and keenly realistic, this book is a must-read for every woman seeking to pursue her unique life.'—Evelyn Murphy, MA Lt Governor and President of The Wage Project
In a recent study, ninety percent of women stated that they ‘expect to transition’ within the next five years. Rather than be frustrated, Rosetti argues that with thought and some elbow grease, transition is not only healthy but rewarding. Women and Transition is a step-by-step how-to guide that every woman can learn from.

Shalini Puri, University of Pittsburgh, USA
‘The book dazzles, provokes, turns us around, and at nearly every turn brings us up against some new angle on the events of 1979-1983, and far far beyond.’ – Havana Times
This unique book, part critique, tribute, and memorial, makes the case
that the 1979-1983 Revolution was a transnational event that deeply impacted politics and culture across the Caribbean. With relevance for all micro-states, the book reflects on how Grenada's small size shapes memory, political and poetic practice, and efforts at reconciliation.

The United Red Army on Screen Cinema, Aesthetics and The Politics of Memory
Christopher Perkins, University of Edinburgh, UK
"In this important treatment of Japanese cinematic memory texts dealing with the United Red Army, Chris Perkins brings together politics, aesthetics and history to offer a new interpretation of how the events surrounding the United Red Army’s
descent into violence have been represented and read as an ongoing trauma for Japanese society, and for the Left in particular. The dominant aesthetic of politicised and gendered kyōki (madness) surrounding the URA creates through its universalism a ‘trap’; violence and madness appear to be the natural ends of all left wing politics. Perkins traces the emergence of this dominant aesthetic alongside resistant processes. In doing so, he offers a new and challenging take on the generalised ‘trouble with history’ in Japan - the desire to suppress the past and the simultaneous searching in history for political relevance for the present condition." - Mark Pendleton, University of Sheffield, UK
This book investigates how films made about the URA since the 1990s have engaged with, reproduced and contested cultural memories of the organisation, discussing how directors have addressed questions of narrativization, trauma, intergenerational connection, and political subjectivity as they engage in the politics of cultural memory on screen. Contents: 1. The URA, politics and the aesthetics of memory / 2. The Japanese New Left and the URA / 3. A spectacle of sex, violence and madness / 4. Horror, sympathy and empathy / 5.

The Cultural Impact of Kanye West
Edited by Julius Bailey, Wittenberg University, USA
"Provocateur, egotist, sage, and artist, no figure in the past decade of popular culture has reflected and defined the zeitgeist better than Kanye West. This collection lays bare the tangle of complexities and contradictions that have made the artist and
the art indispensable to our era and proves that if game recognizes game, wisdom does too." - Jelani Cobb, author of The Substance of Hope: Barack Obama and the Paradox of Progress
Through rap and hip hop, entertainers have provided a voice questioning and challenging the sanctioned view of society. Examining the moral and social implications of Kanye West's art in the context of Western civilization's preconceived ideas, the contributors consider how West both challenges religious and moral norms and propagates them.

of why dissecting the cultural is necessary for understanding the social; it is essential reading for anyone studying the complex reinforcement of class relations in contemporary life." - Sally Munt, University of Sussex, UK
How does culture articulate, frame, organise and produce stories about social class and class difference?

The (Moving) Pictures Generation The Cinematic Impulse in Downtown New York Art and Film
Vera Dika, New Jersey City University, USA
“An intensive study of important activities in the New York art world of the late 1970s, this book manages the tricky feat of being at once broad in its concerns and concentrated in its attention to key figures, works, and propensities within an informal yet

Art in Community The Provisional Citizen
Rimi Khan, University of Melbourne, Australia
“Art in Community provides an astute analysis of art, community and government in a world shaped by neo-liberal policies and increasing cultural diversity. Resisting the celebratory tone of creative industries discourse and
community arts practice, the book is alive to the contradictions of contemporary art-making. Khan lucidly argues that provisionality is symptomatic of the evolving relations between culture, politics and subjectivity.” - Greg Noble, University of Western Sydney, Australia
The arts are situated at the centre of policies and programs seeking to make communities more creative, cohesive or productive. This book highlights the governmental, aesthetic and economic contexts which shape art in community, offering a constructive account of the ties between government, culture and the citizen.

Academic Freedom in an Age of Conformity Confronting the Fear of Knowledge
Joanna Williams, University of Kent, UK
“This is a must read for anyone concerned about the future of freedom inside and outside the university. Joanna Williams provides a compelling account of why academic freedom is in trouble. A powerful but nuanced study of the conformist
campus.” - Frank Furedi, author, commentator and Emeritus Professor of Sociology, University of Kent, UK
Universities, once at the forefront of campaigns for intellectual liberty, are now bastions of conformity. This provocative book traces the demise of academic freedom within the context of changing ideas about the purpose of the university and the nature of knowledge and is a passionate call to arms for the power of academic thought today.

Transforming Classroom Culture Inclusive Pedagogical Practices
Edited by Arlene Dallalfar, Lesley University, USA, Esther Kingston-Mann, University of Massachusetts Boston, USA, Tim Sieber, University of Massachusetts Boston, USA
“The authors in this remarkable book speak about themselves, their students, their institutional contexts with unusual moral, political, and cultural
self-awareness and boundary-crossing interpretive acuteness. Their papers interweave not only a multi-vocal but also a coherent and immediately useful conversation about teaching in richly diverse classrooms. Telling vivid stories, drawing on experience as well as research and acute socioeconomic as well as educational analyses, they offer on-the-ground lessons for other teacher/researchers who really do care about and take responsibility for the lives - including those of professors - that are indeed changed in classrooms.” - Elizabeth K. Minnich, author of Transforming Knowledge
An anthology of original work authored by diverse faculty who work in a variety of New England college and university settings, this book focuses on institutional contexts that promote innovation in teaching practice, faculty identity as a resource for effective pedagogy, and dilemmas and outcomes of student-faculty engagement in the classroom.

Foucault and Educational Ethics Bruce Moghtader, University of Victoria, Canada
‘Succinct, accessible, insightful, Foucault and Educational Ethics is indispensable reading, a book both to study and to teach, a book that shows us that education can be ‘a process where one finds, loses and transforms oneself in the activity of learning.’
Not the final word on Foucault, this primer is a powerful and provocative beginning.’ - William F. Pinar, Professor and Canada Research Chair, University of British Columbia, Canada “This book is a deep, yet approachable introduction to the complex thinking of Foucault and with a special focus on ethics and education ... a book that will make you question and question further.” - Barbara Weber, Associate Professor, University of British Columbia, Canada
By investigating Michel Foucault’s ethics, the book explores how we form ourselves as ethical subjects. This question is inseparable from the activities we take on to educate others and ourselves. Foucault’s questioning of the ways we know ourselves and the ways we conduct ourselves assists thinking and action in present educational ethics. Contents: 1. Introduction / 2.

Gender Work Feminism after Neoliberalism
Robin Truth Goodman, Florida State University, USA
"This book marks a path-breaking turn in feminist theory, where feminism illuminates the transfigured conditions of contemporary global society under neoliberalism. Goodman brilliantly restores the primacy of labor and class to feminist theory, political analysis, and social agency alike. Her riveting analyses recasts culture and everyday life as they reframe the capital flows of globalization. What results is extraordinary: an urgent, timely, and truly global feminist theory of how women's work changes the world." - Jennifer Wicke, Professor of English and Comparative Literature, University of Virginia, USA

Representation and Black Womanhood The Legacy of Sarah Baartman
Natasha Gordon-Chipembere, City University of New York, USA
“Apart from examining archives on Sarah Baartman, the book functions as an archive itself. The inclusion of poetry, song, visual art, and building projects lend a depth to the articles by solidifying the idea of Sarah Baartman as being
more than a subject of scholarly research. This book is important in that it affords the opportunity to look back, not only at Sarah Baartman, but at social and political traditions that characterise human behaviour, the discourses employed to make sense of it, and aspects of our various pasts that were found wanting, and in this way, chart the path forward to new discourses and understandings.

The Foreign Relations of Elizabeth I Edited by Charles Beem, University of North Carolina, Pembroke, USA
"The editor, through careful scaffolding and thoughtful organization, has crafted an arrangement that covers much ground to significant effect ...

Politics, Gender and Conceptual Metaphors Edited by Kathleen Ahrens, Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong
“The importance of this book can be seen in the way that it brings together a focus on language (and conceptual metaphors in particular) and politics and applies feminist research questions and methodologies in thinking through this relationship. Language is a tool involved in knowledge production and thus political action, thus it should be analyzed cautiously which is precisely what the contributors of this book manage to do.” - International Feminist Journal of Politics
International researchers examine the interplay between gender and metaphor in political language in the UK, USA, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Ireland, and Singapore. They draw on a variety of corpus data to determine to what extent conceptual metaphors used by women in political power differ with, or remain the same as that of men.

‘Public’ and ‘Private’ Playhouses in Renaissance England The Politics of Publication
Eoin Price, Swansea University, UK
"Eoin Price’s lively, scholarly study of what it meant to call a Renaissance playhouse ‘private’ or ‘public’ will change the ways in which we think about the Elizabethan and Jacobean theatre - indeed, it may change the ways in which we think about
privacy, culture and the public sphere for good measure. This book is necessary reading for anyone interested in the institution of early modern drama." — Michael Dobson, Director of the Shakespeare Institute, Stratford-upon-Avon, and Professor of Shakespeare Studies, University of Birmingham, UK
This book illuminates the politics of Renaissance theatre culture and playbook publication by analysing how and why playhouses came to be referred to as ‘public’ or ‘private’.

Spectral Shakespeares Media Adaptations in the Twenty-First Century
Maurizio Calbi, University of Salerno, Italy
“Calbi’s writing constitutes theoretical criticism at its best. Moving between the BBC ‘Shakespea(Re)-Told’ season, arthouse films and social networking discussion, as well as other cultural products and practices, the author showcases a rich array of ghostly renderings of the Bard. By turns seductive and heretical, and as arresting as it is intriguing, Spectral Shakespeares ranges ambitiously across time and space to argue passionately and persuasively for the crucial significance of Shakespeare’s multi-layered and multi-mediatized afterlives.” - Professor Mark Thornton Burnett, Queen’s University, Belfast, Northern Ireland , UK
Spectral Shakespeares is an illuminating exploration of experimental adaptations of Shakespeare on film, TV, and the web. Drawing on adaptation studies, media theory, and Derrida’s work, the ‘Shakespeare’ that emerges from these adaptations is a fragmentary and mediatized presence that leaves a mark on our contemporary mediascape.

Rarity and the Poetic The Gesture of Small Flowers
Harold Schweizer, Bucknell University, USA
Rarity is a quality by which things—flowers, leaves, light, sound—fleetingly appear and disappear, leaving in their wake a resonance of something we just thought we had glimpsed. Each of the nine chapters in this book pursues such intimations of rarity in poetic ideas, images, and silences.

Virginia Woolf and the Modern Sublime The Invisible Tribunal
Daniel T. O’Hara, Temple University, USA
“Daniel O’Hara demonstrates how Woolf’s sensitive readings shape the exquisite character and sublime power of her own prose, which frequently combines the specific detail of modern experience with a grandeur associated with an earlier epoch. O’Hara’s grounding in romanticism
informs his revisionary interpretation of Woolf’s modernism. As a result, O’Hara’s study produces an aesthetically and historically rich understanding of not just Woolf’s own corpus but also of the power of literature to shape ourselves and the worlds we inhabit.” — Robert T. Tally Jr., Associate Professor of English, Texas State University, USA
Virginia Woolf and the Modern Sublime argues that Virginia Woolf transformed the sublime experience in her writing to make room for the democratic invention of female genius. From canonical to lesser known works, O’Hara places her ironic novels in the revisionary literary and critical tradition extending from the Elizabethans to the present.
Contents: 1. Like Giving Birth to a Dead White Star: An Introduction To the Modern Sublime in Virginia Woolf / 2. Burning Through Every Context: On Narrating The Modern Sublime in Jacob’s Room / 3. The Uncanny Muse of Creative Reading: On The New Cambridge Edition of Mrs. Dalloway / and more...

“ The Scandal of White Complicity in U.S. Hyper-Incarceration is a much-needed attempt by three Catholic scholars to unmask... the role of white Americans in
‘cooperation with evil.’ In so doing, they pose a formidable challenge to U.S. Catholics, who have been far too silent on this catastrophic threat to human dignity that is hidden in plain sight.” - Nathan Schneider, The National Catholic Review

A Critique of the Moral Defense of Vegetarianism
Andrew F. Smith, Drexel University, USA
‘This is a beautifully readable work. The author’s openness to his own struggles and his reflexivity about the processes by which he has reached his conclusions make it easy to follow along. At the same time Smith requires readers to
reflect and work hard. Wonderful! Why isn’t more academia like this?’ - Graham Harvey, The Open University, UK
Drawing on research in plant science, systems ecology, environmental philosophy, and cultural anthropology, Andrew F. Smith shatters the distinction between vegetarianism and omnivorism. The book outlines the implications that these manufactured distinctions have for how we view food and ourselves as eaters.

Democratizing Europe Antoine Vauchez, Centre européen de sociologie et de science politique (Université Paris 1-Sorbonne / CNRS), France
“If you are interested in understanding the reasons and causes of the democratic disenchantment that is undermining the European project, Vauchez’s book is a must-read. He argues,
in a convincing and innovative manner, that the solution is not to be sought in an increase in classic electoral legitimacy, but rather in the democratization of the functioning of the European independent institutions who are the true locus of power in the EU.” - Pierre Rosanvallon, Professor, Chair in Modern and Contemporary History of Politics, Collège de France
Drawing from recent streams of scholarship, Democratizing Europe provides a renewed portrait of EU government that point at the enduring leading role of independent powers (the European Court, Commission and Central Bank). Vauchez suggests that we recognize this centrality and adjust our democratization strategies accordingly.

It should be read by all scholars, students and members of the general public interested in this key field for understanding modern British history." - John M.

Open Borders and International Migration Policy The Effects of Unrestricted Immigration in the United States, France, and Ireland
Joel S. Fetzer, Frank R. Seaver Professor of Social Science, Pepperdine University, USA
"In this work, Joel Fetzer, a leading international scholar of migration, uses a number of case studies to consider the empirical consequences of opening borders to immigrants. The result is a sophisticated, original, and extremely timely
account that shows why Western societies may have far less to fear—and much more to gain—from unregulated migration than they might think." – Matthew J. Gibney, University of Oxford, UK
Although philosophers debate the morality of open borders, few social scientists have explored what would happen if immigration were no longer limited. This book looks at three examples of temporarily unrestricted migration in Miami, Marseille, and Dublin and finds that the effects were much less catastrophic than opponents of immigration claim.

Islamicity Indices The Seed for Change
Hossein Askari, George Washington University, USA, Hossein Mohammadkhan, Astegic Inc., USA
"A cutting-edge, constructed index to objectively assess policy actions in Muslim countries and differentiate them in terms of their seriousness in striving for a society based on core Islamic
principles . . . By providing a fresh framework, Askari and Mohammadkhan are opening up a whole new area for scholarship." - Robert Looney, Naval Postgraduate School, USA
The extent of Islamicity, or what Islam demands, is measured to confirm that self-declared Muslim countries have not adopted foundational Islamic teachings for rule-compliant Muslim communities. Western countries, on the other hand, are demonstrated to have better implemented fundamental Islamic teachings for a thriving society.

The Arab Spring and the Geopolitics of the Middle East Emerging Security Threats and Revolutionary Change
Amr Yossef, Independent Scholar, Egypt, Joseph Cerami, Bush School of Government, Texas, USA
“Yossef and Cerami’s excellent book engages the question of the long-term security effects of the Arab uprisings and the policy options available to regional governments and the international community in
addressing them. By reorienting our security reference points from states to people, and demonstrating how this new reference point demands alternative policy paths, the authors provide concrete suggestions on how to move beyond the violence and insecurities generated by the Arab uprisings towards more sound institutional and political structures that can promote stability and security.” – Professor Samer Abboud, Arcadia University, USA
In this study, which highlights a renewed emphasis in international affairs on regional studies, the co-authors provide an assessment of the revolutionary changes in the politics and security of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).

“Cause for celebration: a ‘critical’ volume on IPE that is worthy of the name. This innovative text is not only a good read but a crucial contribution at a critical moment.

Pursuing Alternative Development Indigenous People, Ethnic Organization and Agency
M. Saiful Islam, University of Dhaka, Bangladesh
“This book will definitely enliven the debate about alternative ways of ‘development’. The case study presented shows convincingly that underprivileged groups can develop themselves rather than being developed by others. Overall this is a useful text for academics,
students and practitioners.” - Hans-Dieter Evers, Emeritus Professor of Development Studies, University of Bonn, Germany “This book offers both an anthropological critique of development, and also a pioneering ethnography of unusual indigenous organization working to improve the life conditions of its people. It is a superb ethnography and a well-written text, bearing a powerful moral message.” - Gordon Mathews, Professor and Chair of the Department of Anthropology, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Drawing upon ethnographic descriptions of three grassroots ethnic organizations, which work for indigenous peoples in promoting economic livelihood, education and strive for social justice, this book investigates the possibilities and challenges of alternative development.

Debating Race in Contemporary India
Duncan McDuie-Ra, University of New South Wales, Australia
"Who said race didn’t matter in South Asia, that it is something of the past, something that only had to do with the British? Duncan McDuie-Ra turns such thinking on its head, showing with great force that race and racial discrimination
is very much alive and kicking in India today. This is social science at its best; attention to ethnographic detail and a close reading of everyday experiences are coupled with theoretical insights, analytical sharpness and political commitment. McDuie-Ra’s call for a more nuanced debate about race is timely, it is a must read for anyone concerned with the larger drama of social differentiation and racism in today’s world." – Bengt Karlsson, Stockholm University, Sweden
Race debates have become more frequent at the national level, and the response to racism in the media and by politicians has shifted from denial to acknowledgment to action. Focusing on the experiences of communities from India’s Northeast borderland, the author explores the dynamics of race debates in contemporary India.Contents: 1.

Climate Change and American Foreign Policy Edited by Paul G. Harris, Hong Kong Institute of Education
"This book’s diverse investigations into the reasons for the slow pace of the American policy response to the climate problem also show the possibilities and limits of various theoretical approaches to policy analysis. Given the importance of climate change issues and the obvious need for a constructive American policy, this book is a timely contribution that will stimulate scholarly discussion about both pressing practical policy matters, as well as the current conceptual questions in studying international environmental policymaking." - Simon Dalby, Carleton University, Ottawa

Christopher W. Larimer, University of Northern Iowa, USA
"This slim volume provides a unique window into how voters perceive the governor. Through rigorous analysis and gifted storytelling, Larimer demonstrates why Governors, particularly in a state like Iowa, must
maintain a close connection to the voters to be successful. This book should be of interest to scholars, students, and citizens interested in Iowa politics, the office of the governor, and why personal connection still matters in politics" - Chris Cooper, Professor and Department Head, Western Carolina University, USA

Living with London’s Olympics An Ethnography

“Cities bidding for the Olympic Games now routinely spend as much time addressing issues of long-term legacy as to plans for the sports competitions. In this pioneering text, Iain Lindsay presents a wealth of ethnographic data to show how the seven-year preparations for London 2012 fared in light of the original claims. It is required reading for anyone interested in the realities of planning for the world’s most significant sporting and cultural mega-event.” - John Gold, Professor of Urban Historical Geography, Oxford Brookes University, UK The quadrennial summer Olympic Games produces the world’s biggest single-city cultural event. Drawing on ethnographic work around the London 2012 Games, this book contrasts the rhetoric and reality of mega-event delivery and shows that the notions of beneficial Olympic legacies and delivery benefits for host communities are, for most, unobtainable.

A Historical Account of Danish Sociology A Troubled Sociology
Kristoffer Kropp, Roskilde University, Denmark
“Kristoffer Kropp’s book is a signal contribution to the growing library of careful historical studies of national social science disciplines and sub-disciplinary specialisms. A must for sociologists, intellectual historians, specialists in science studies, and
those interested in the historical uses of Pierre Bourdieu’s field theory. This book tells a fascinating story about the stormy evolution of Danish Sociology and is a cautionary tale about the fragile conditions of social scientific creativity. Although the assault on the social sciences in Thatcherite Britain and Reaganite America during the 1980s is more familiar, Kristoffer Kropp reconstructs an even more dramatic case in Denmark that led to a ‘near death’ situation for Sociology in the 1990s. The author does not reduce the crises of Danish sociology to American influence, but his book shows the disproportionate impact of a handful of American sociologists on the balance of power in the sociological and wider scientific and academic spheres in Denmark. The book reconstructs the strategies, institutions, and research methods that emerged in response to disciplinary crisis, and traces sociologists’ efforts to navigate the polarization between autonomous and applied social science.” - George Steinmetz, University of Michigan, USA Contents: 1.

The Palgrave Handbook of Society, Culture and Outer Space
Edited by Peter Dickens, University of Cambridge, UK, James S. Ormrod, University of Brighton, UK
‘It’s a long observed paradox that while social science has made space a key analytic, it has been slow to theorise our relations with extra-terrestrial Space. Finally here is a volume that distils the
finest new work on the sociality of outer space and Earth’s orbit. This remarkable collection takes the canon of critical thinking to these most unfamiliar of environments, not only bringing outer space ‘home’ but questioning the cherished planetary boundaries that frame mainstream scholarship. The reach of social science has been ably extended.’ - Fraser MacDonald, University of Edinburgh, UK
Bringing together scholarship from across the social sciences and humanities, this handbook critically examines the relationship between society and outer space, exploring the history, present and future of outer space and the place of humans within it.

At the forefront of both the global and materialist turns in disability studies, Erevelles provides readers with an indispensable analysis of the ways in which disability in the current world order is constructed in relation to systems of gender, race, class, caste, and sexual orientation. Erevelles calls for a transformative body politic that resists the compulsory subject positions and relations of domination generated by neoliberal, capitalist modes of production. In and through that call, she remaps, in emancipatory ways, the terrain of disability studies, feminist studies, Marxist theory, postcolonial theory, and education." –Robert McRuer, Professor of English, George Washington University, USA
This book explores the possibilities and limitations re-theorizing disability using historical materialism in the interdisciplinary contexts of social theory, cultural studies, social and education policy, feminist ethics, and theories of citizenship.

Olli Pyyhtinen, University of Tampere, Finland
This book is a call for a bolder, more creative sociology.
