Global Perspectives in Comics Studies

Exploring Ecological Issues in Graphic Narratives positions graphic storytelling at the intersection of ecocriticism, environmental justice, and Comics Studies. This book argues that ecological catastrophe is not only a scientific or policy crisis but also a crisis of representation, set against the backdrop of climate change, biodiversity loss, and systemic environmental inequity.While ecocriticism has expanded significantly, this book largely focuses on canonical prose, overlooking the multimodal and spatial possibilities of graphic narratives. It critically engages with the Anthropocene, highlighting the deep connections between environmental degradation and colonialism, capitalism, caste oppression, and gendered exploitation. Through global case studies-including Indigenous resistance in Canada's oil sands, Dalit environmental aesthetics in India, Japanese eco-dystopian manga, and urban human-animal reconfigurations-it explores how graphic narratives depict "slow violence," express nonhuman agency, and challenge anthropocentric binaries.Part of the Global Perspectives in Comics Studies series, this book addresses the multilingual dimensions of the comics medium, often overlooked in ecocriticism, making it a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts alike. With its international scope, it will appeal to academics, students, activists, artists, educators, policy-makers, and graphic novel enthusiasts exploring ecological issues, environmental justice, and the interdisciplinary potential of graphic narratives, particularly in regions where comics and graphic novels thrive.

A striking collection of 90 photographs depicting the rugged grandeur of the Northwest Coast’s Great Bear Rainforest. Spirit of the Great Bear&nbsp;is an immersive journey through the vast wilderness habitat of the spirit bear, the rare white-furred variant of Kermode bears that has long featured in First Nations oral traditions. While much of Great Bear Rainforest is protected—it is the largest intact coastal temperate rainforest on Earth—today there are as few as 100 of the bears remaining, making it one of the world's rarest animals. Wildlife photographer and conservationist Jack Plant has spent the last decade exploring the rainforest in search of spirit bears and documenting the natural beauty of this coastal habitat, relying heavily on the guidance and traditional knowledge generously shared by the First Nations communities who have protected the region for thousands of years. Plant was adopted by Hereditary Chief Charlie Mason of Kitasoo/Xai’xais First Nation in the community of Klemtu. Spirit of the Great Bear&nbsp;features photographic accounts of Plant’s wild and memorable encounters with the white bears, as well as with other extraordinary species found in the Great Bear Rainforest, including grizzly bears, black bears, wolves, orcas, and humpback whales. The book examines the natural and human-caused threats to the rich biodiversity of the Rainforest while highlighting the substantial progress Indigenous leaders and conservationists have made to protect one of the most biodiverse landscapes in the world. It’s both a celebration of the spirit bear’s resilience and its wilderness home, and an urgent reminder of the need to protect this special and vulnerable ecosystem.

Spirit of the Great Bear

A collection of eye-opening natural experiments, showing how economists uncover cause-and-effect relationships and reveal insights about our world. Does having a daughter change how a congressperson votes? How did a nineteenth-century doctor help discover germs? Is it better to go first or second in a penalty shootout? Why don’t diplomats pay their parking tickets? Do leaders really matter? These are all questions economists ask. Some of these questions are serious, others less consequential. But all are interesting—and can be answered by way of the natural experiment. A natural experiment is an event in the real world that neatly divides people into a treatment and control group—and it is one of the greatest tools in the economist’s toolkit. In Daughters, Diplomats, and Death, Patrick Gourley discusses why and how economists have leveraged this powerful method to answer questions that were long thought unanswerable. In the vein of Freakonomics, Nudge, and The Tipping Point, the book takes the reader on a lively and engaging tour of some of the most fascinating natural experiments, explaining how they work, how they help social scientists answer questions, and what conclusions they reached. The experiments illuminate a wide range of timely issues in health, education, reproductive issues, and the environment, lending rich and much-needed nuance to the complex debates that shape today’s headlines.

How Economists Use Natural Experiments to Decipher Our World

Traces the early history of economic knowledge developed by thinkers between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries. Tracking the pre-history of economic thought starting in the sixteenth century, The Lost Forms of Economic Knowledge investigates its origins prior to the emergence of political economy as an autonomous discipline in the late eighteenth century. French historian Arnaud Orain reconstructs the "lost forms" of economic knowledge that led to a world very different from our modern system of numerical abstraction and market regulation. As Orain shows, older approaches to the economy defined it as a relationship between humans and the environment. These earlier forms of economic thought relied on and sought to advance vernacular knowledge from figures such as naturalists, artisans, farmers, and merchants on how to harness the environment to our advantage. Nonetheless, the goal was not to maximize profit, but to satisfy our needs and live in harmony with nature. At a time in which natural resources are fast depleting, Orain argues, we could do worse than to consider alternative approaches to "economics" that lie in our past.

Klimawende Ausblick

Deutschland hat sich das Ziel gesetzt, bis 2045 klimaneutral zu werden. Der Weg dorthin erfordert neben technischen Innovationen einen tiefgreifenden gesellschaftlichen Wandel. Vor diesem Hintergrund zieht der Klimawende Ausblick 2025 Bilanz: Wo steht Deutschland auf dem Weg zur Klimaneutralität? Und welche Auswirkungen haben geopolitische Krisen, der anti-ökologische Backlash und sinkende Resonanz für Klimaschutz? Die Beiträge analysieren Prozesse in Politik, Wirtschaft und Zivilgesellschaft und zeigen, wie Fortschritte, Blockaden und neue Konfliktlinien ineinandergreifen. Damit liefern sie einen einzigartigen Einblick in die gesellschaftlichen Dynamiken der Transformation - jenseits technologischer Verkürzungen und mit Fokus auf soziokulturelle Zusammenhänge.

How can we understand the world around us through our bodies, ethical considerations, and œcological awareness, and how can we actively shape it through cosmopoietic, generative forces? Choreo-ethical Assemblages - Embodied Research as Cosmopoietic Œcology explores the interconnections between choreography, ethics, and œcology through embodied research. The book presents micro-phenomenological actualisation and purposeful polysemy as methods for exploring subjective experiences and opening them up to diverse interpretations. Methodical-artistic approaches, such as the generative forces in choreographic environments that do not determine experience but open up spaces of resonance through ambiguity, are discussed. Thus, comprehension itself becomes a process that allows for and stimulates diverse interpretations. The twin existence of aesthetics and ethics, as well as narratives of "bare bodies," make the intertwining of body, narrative, and responsibility tangible. "Choreo-ethical assemblages" make socio-aesthetic sensitisation and epistemic singularities tangible and unfold the political and poetic dimension of an artistic research that lives the relationality of diverse forces as choreo-ethical practice.
<ul>
<li>Interdisciplinary perspective: connects choreography, ethics, and ecology, thereby engaging diverse disciplines such as dance studies, philosophy, psychotherapy, ecology, and artistic research.</li>
<li>Innovative research methods: introduces new approaches such as micro-phenomenological embodiment to explore subjective experience.</li>
<li>Relevance to social issues: addresses topics like vulnerability, body politics, the environment, and ecological sustainability.</li>
</ul>
Wie können wir die Welt um uns herum mithilfe unseres Körpers, ethischer Überlegungen und ökologischem Bewusstsein verstehen und durch kosmopoietische, generative Kräfte aktiv mitgestalten? Choreo-ethical Assemblages - Embodied Research as Cosmopoietic Œkology untersucht die Querverbindungen zwischen Choreographie, Ethik und Œkologie durch verkörperte Forschung. Das Buch stellt mikrophänomenologische Vergegenwärtigung des Begreifens und zielgerichtete Polysemie als Methoden vor, um subjektive Erfahrungen zu erforschen und für vielfältige Interpretationen zu öffnen. Methodisch-künstlerische Zugänge, wie etwa die generativen Kräfte in choreographischen Umgebungen, die Erfahrung nicht festlegen, sondern durch Mehrdeutigkeit Resonanzräume aufmachen, werden diskutiert. So wird das Begreifen selbst zu einem Prozess, der vielfältige Lesarten zulässt und anstößt. Das Zwillingsdasein von Ästhetik und Ethik sowie Narrationen von "Bare Bodies" lassen die Verflechtung von Körper, Erzählung und Verantwortung spürbar werden. "Choreo-ethische Assemblagen" machen sozial-ästhetische Sensibilisierung und epistemische Singularitäten erfahrbar und entfalten die politische wie poetische Dimension eines künstlerischen Forschens, das die Relationalität diverser Wirkkräfte als choreo-ethische Praxis lebt.
<ul>
<li>Interdisziplinäre Perspektive: Verknüpft Choreographie, Ethik und Ökologie und spricht so unterschiedliche Disziplinen wie Tanzwissenschaften, Philosophie, Psychotherapie, Ökologie und Künstlerische Forschung an.</li>
<li>Innovative Forschungsmethoden: Neue Ansätze wie mikrophänomenologische Verkörperung zur Erforschung subjektiver Erfahrungen.</li>
<li>Relevanz für gesellschaftliche Themen: Auseinandersetzung mit Verwundbarkeit, Körperpolitik und Umwelt sowie ökologischer Nachhaltigkeit.</li>
</ul>

Embodied Research as Cosmopoietic cology

Choreo-ethical Assemblages

From the man that the&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;calls “the most important person you’ve never heard of,” renowned Cambridge University economist Sir Partha Dasgupta, comes a paradigm shifting treatise, asking a simple yet profound question—what if we put a value on nature, just as we put a value on everything else?&nbsp;For just about everything of value in life, there is an economic model. If it matters to us, we have found a way to put a dollar amount on it—to quantify its importance in our lives and society. These models and metrics tell us that our economies are healthy because they are growing. And yet for as long as they have existed, our economic models have served us an incomplete picture; they fail to account for the fact that our growth is driven by a resource that we take for&nbsp;free&nbsp;and treat as&nbsp;infinite: nature.&nbsp;Indeed, for centuries we have been using nature as if it were limitless, but more than ever, we are recognizing that our demands on the natural world are unsustainable. In&nbsp;On Natural Capital, award-winning Cambridge University economist Sir Partha Dasgupta lays out a seminal new approach to economics that asks, what if we were to put a value on nature just as we value everything else? Rooted in mankind’s struggle against climate change, Dasgupta’s approach examines the existential need to rethink our relationship to nature and see its preservation as an economic imperative. Challenging much of economic thought that has come before, Dasgupta presents an urgent call to transform the focus and structures of global economics with a profound new model—one so radical that only an economist of his stature could make the world take it seriously.&nbsp;On Natural Capital&nbsp;is a bold and groundbreaking book that could, truly, change everything.

The Value of the World Around Us

On Natural Capital

SIDREA Series in Accounting and Business Administration

In an increasingly interconnected and complex world, businesses face environmental, social, and economic challenges that demand thoughtful reflection and a shift in operational approaches. Today, focusing solely on profit is no longer sufficient. Companies are expected to make decisions that also consider the impact of their actions on the environment, society, and governance. 

This book integrates Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors into business strategies and analyses its role for firms striving to remain competitive and responsible in a rapidly evolving economic landscape. The author recognizes the ESG approach as a central element of business strategy and not only addresses global challenges such as climate change and social inequality but also its critical role in managing systematic risks—those that affect the entire market and cannot be easily diversified.

Where and how we pay is changing dramatically. This timely, innovative book navigates the so-called 'Cambrian explosion' of FinTech companies and more specifically to the emergence of Blockchain technologies and cryptocurrencies through the lens of the case of Ripple, a company in the field of cryptoassets and cross-border payments. Combining STS with human geography and political economy, it navigates the maelstrom of proliferating new and old payment infrastructure, to develop a theoretical and empirical 'infrastructural inversion' of money. Money does not just flow through or behave like an infrastructure, but rather it is an infrastructure, because it is predicated upon the existence of accounting and payment infrastructures of memory for its very existence. Using the concepts of active forms and dispositions from design and architecture, this nuanced book analyses how money's infrastructures act in the world materially, spatially, as objects and subjects of desire and as political and economic machines. If we want new forms of money for new forms of society, we need to think holistically and ecologically about the complex combinations of materiality, space, desire and political economies that money generates and propagates. Tracing the trajectory of a cryptoasset project from an alternative credit system to an interbank, cross-border company, the book moves beyond a Bitcoin-centric view of money. It reveals how alternative and mainstream, networked and sovereign forms of money have long been intertwined.

An ecology of materiality, space, desires and power

Money’s infrastructures

The lives of the world's poorest are already harder, hotter, and shorter, thanks to the actions and emissions of the world's richest. But just as the rich world's emissions are finally falling, emissions from poorer countries are set to increase drastically. We seem to be caught in an impossible bind-but it's not too late to find a way out. In Just Economics, renowned economists Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo (co-recipients of the 2019 Nobel Prize), and Michael Greenstone propose a radical new approach to combatting the climate crisis, arguing that climate deterioration is inseparable from our polycrisis of mass migration, political instability and the resurgence of populist nationalism. We cannot make progress, they show, without compensating those harmed by climate change and incentivizing developing countries to reduce their emissions, to our benefit too. Morality and self-interest are no longer mutually exclusive. Based on meticulous original research and years of fieldwork around the world witnessing and quantifying the real impact of climate change on those most affected, this inspiring work shows it's not impossible to protect the poor while protecting our future-it's just economics.
