Die Public Health Humanities verstehen Gesundheit und Krankheit als kulturell und sozial geprägte Phänomene. Sie ergänzen die empirisch orientierte Multidisziplin Public Health um geisteswissenschaftliche und künstlerische Perspektiven. Dabei fragen sie nach der Bedeutung des Künstlerischen für die Gesundheit, interessieren sich für moralische, soziale und kulturelle Dimensionen von Gesundheit und Krankheit in Kunst bzw. Medien und bieten theoretische Zugänge für gesundheitliche Analysen an. Bezugsdisziplinen sind u.a. Kunst-, Kultur- und Medienwissenschaften, Philosophie und Geschichte. Die Beiträger*innen leuchten das Spektrum unterschiedlicher Perspektiven und Zugänge der Public Health Humanities erstmals auf Deutsch aus.

Leadership in Global Health outlines the essential leadership principles that transform promising health interventions into global movements, offering a timely and compelling blueprint for leaders seeking to drive lasting, scalable change.Grounded in decades of lessons from global health successes and failures, and illustrated through deeply analyzed, real-world case studies, the book reveals what happens when leadership meets coordinated action. These stories - from the eradication of smallpox and the large-scale delivery of malaria bed nets to the community-based innovations of Ethiopia's Health Extension Program and the lightning-fast COVID-19 vaccine rollout - show how leadership in global health is not one-size-fits-all, but rather dynamic, responsive, and deeply human. In an era where complex health challenges range from emerging pandemics to enduring inequities, the book centers the role of leadership-strategic, adaptive, and collaborative-as the critical engine for scaling health interventions, offering readers not only compelling narratives from the field, but also practical tools and reflections which give the book a forward-looking focus.Building to offer a roadmap for developing the next generation of global health leaders equipped to thrive in multi-sectoral, rapidly evolving environments, it will be essential reading for students, scholars and practitioners across Global Health, Public Health, Leadership and Development Studies.

This book is the first investigation of the relationship between EU digital sovereignty and sustainability strategies. It maps the ambitions and limitations of EU digital strategic autonomy and explores the structural challenges underlying its relationship with its green transition objectives in the context of the ongoing wars in neighbouring European countries and the consequent tensions in the EU energy sector. The EU is racing to achieve technological independence from third countries and foreign multinational companies to protect its digital sovereignty and preserve its fundamental rights. In the EU, digitalisation and the green transformation are seen as twin transitions. Yet, EU digital sovereignty strategies have a significant environmental cost. Reaching a status of strategic autonomy of the EU at the level of digital infrastructures, products, services and data implies higher energy consumption and exploitation of natural resources. Moreover, the geopolitical tensions following the Russian invasion of Ukraine have provoked an unprecedented energy crisis, which is affecting EU economies and impacting objectives of the twin transitions. The book offers an interdisciplinary analysis of the major EU regulatory and policy instruments in this field, providing an invaluable guide for academics, practitioners, and policymakers navigating the complex issues of preserving digital sovereignty and addressing climate change in times of war and energy crisis.

Digital Sovereignty and the Green Transition

The extractive economy is failing. The regenerative economy is being built. This is the definitive field manual for entrepreneurs, investors, and changemakers ready to stop tinkering with a broken system—and start building what replaces it. When Laurie Lane-Zucker coined the term impact entrepreneur in 2011, he named an emerging movement. Fifteen years later, that movement has reached a breakthrough. The Impact Entrepreneur Breakthrough maps how to join it. Part manifesto and part operating manual, this book shows how enterprises, ownership, capital, markets, security, and culture must transform together—and provides practical tools to begin immediately. Drawing on three decades at the forefront of impact investing and regenerative economics, Lane-Zucker introduces powerful new frameworks, including the Five Pillars of Real Security, the Prevention Dividend, and Defense as a Service—reimagining protection as shared resilience rather than fortified isolation. You’ll learn to <ul><li>design enterprises that heal communities and ecosystems;&nbsp;</li><li>structure ownership so mission survives growth and succession;&nbsp;</li><li>deploy capital for long-term resilience;&nbsp;</li><li>rethink risk through prevention and collaboration;&nbsp;and</li><li>translate regenerative values into concrete strategies and decisions.</li></ul> Each chapter moves from analysis to action, with real-world applications from practitioners already building the Impact Economy. The breakthrough is happening now. The question is whether you’ll participate.

This book offers a regression-based analysis of corporate profitability in the United States over the period 1950 to 2024. Drawing on detailed analysis of 71 leading corporations across 11 key industries-from petroleum and natural gas to high-tech and government contracting-this book reveals a striking pattern: operating-profit markups have remained both high and remarkably stable over the past seven decades.
Using a clear and accessible regression-based methodology, the author demonstrates how corporations have consistently maintained their ability to pass through costs, challenging common assumptions about volatility in profit margins.

A robust empirical framework for analyzing long-term profitability

Industry-specific insights into pricing power and cost pass-through

A valuable resource for understanding corporate behavior across economic cycles

The future belongs not to those who maintain the status quo, but to those who can envision and create systems that allow humanity and our planet to flourish together. This book is an invitation for you to become an evolutionary leader.As we face unprecedented polycrises-climate change, social inequality, economic instability-traditional leadership approaches are proving inadequate. This groundbreaking book challenges business leaders to transcend conventional thinking and become architects of a more sustainable, abundant future. Drawing on Buckminster Fuller's visionary framework and cutting-edge systems thinking, this book offers more than theory-it provides a practical pathway to becoming an evolutionary leader capable of addressing our most complex challenges. It presents seven transformative competencies that elevate you from problem-solver to systems transformer and actionable strategies for designing innovations that serve people, profit, and planet simultaneously.While other books merely diagnose global challenges or present utopian visions, this work bridges the critical gap between awareness and action. It is for forward-thinking executives, entrepreneurs, social innovators, policy makers, and change agents committed to creating meaningful impact and collaborate in an interconnected world.

Today's marketplace is shaped by habits of excess that threaten both consumer well-being and the environment, placing overconsumption, materialism, and unsustainable business practices at the heart of contemporary marketing debates. Mindful Consumption and Marketing redefines how markets, organizations, and individuals navigate demand and growth by positioning mindfulness as a transformative lens for theory and practice. Situated at the intersection of consumer behavior, marketing strategy, and sustainable enterprise, it shows how conscious awareness of both internal experiences and external market forces can shape more deliberate and purposeful choices. Krittinee Nuttavuthisit advances a vision of marketing as a moral and relational practice, where value creation balances profitability with consumer well-being, social equity, and ecological responsibility. Through a combination of theory-driven chapters on consumer psychology, sociocultural context, and decision-making, alongside rich case-based illustrations, she charts a forward-looking path for scholars and practitioners seeking more balanced and sustainable market development.
