Insolvencia empresarial, derecho concursal y pandemia

As organizations toy with being more flexible, leaders need new tools to successfully implement new workplace arrangements. Business psychologist Julie Kantor and employment law attorney Felice Ekelman provide those tools. As the workplace is ever evolving, employees are also evolving and have discovered that there is no true separation between work and life. But in order to maintain a healthy balance, leaders must be able to meet the needs of their employees as well as organizational needs, which means leaning into the hybrid workplace model. This helpful resource provides strategies for making hybrid arrangements successful and meaningful. It teaches organizations how to choose an appropriate and flexible work policy that enables leaders to lead by maximizing the organization's ability to attract qualified candidates, retain valued contributors, and ultimately create a culture in which employees can thrive.

Step-by-Step Guidance from the Experts

Thrive with a Hybrid Workplace

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Shia Revival Now with a new afterword by the author, this gripping account overturns simplistic portrayals of Iran as a theocratic pariah state, revealing how its strategic moves on the world stage are driven by two pervasive threats—external aggression and internal dissolution Iran presents one of the most significant foreign policy challenges for America and the West, yet very little is known about what the country’s goals really are. Vali Nasr examines Iran’s political history in new ways to explain its actions and ambitions on the world stage, showing how, behind the veneer of theocracy and Islamic ideology, today’s Iran is pursuing a grand strategy aimed at securing the country internally and asserting its place in the region and the world. Drawing on memoirs, oral histories, and original in-depth interviews with Iranian decision makers, Nasr brings to light facts and events in Iran’s political history that have been overlooked until now. He traces the roots of Iran’s strategic outlook to its experiences over the past four decades of war with Iraq in the 1980s and the subsequent American containment of Iran, invasion of Iraq in 2003, and posture toward Iran thereafter. Nasr reveals how these experiences have shaped a geopolitical outlook driven by pervasive fear of America and its plans for the Middle East. Now with an afterword by the author that addresses recent developments in Iran’s domestic and world affairs, Iran’s Grand Strategy challenges the notion that Iran’s foreign policy simply reflects its revolutionary values or theocratic government. It provides invaluable insights into what Iran wants and why, explaining the country’s resistance to the United States, its nuclear ambitions, and its pursuit of influence and proxies across the Middle East.

Modern Studies in European Law

This book explores discretionary decision-making in migration systems in Europe. It investigates how European law influences the existence, exercise and effects of discretion.

Firstly, it argues that national lawmakers often regard discretionary decision-making as the most viable option to accommodate standards of European law in their national migration systems. Secondly, the book shows how the exercise of this power has changed from an area of free choice to an instance of legally instructed decision-making. Ultimately, it illustrates how both the proliferation and transformation of discretionary decision-making have improved the legal position of migrants in the European Union, providing a compelling interpretation of a key field of EU law.

Very Slowly All at Once

Daniela Russ argues that the category of ‘energy’ is best understood not in terms of particular material things but as a social relation to nature forged over 200 years of capitalist industrialization. Working Nature examines how engineers, scientists, and economists harnessed and circulated the products of nature despite social and natural resistance.

A History of the Energy Economy

Working Nature

The promise of a capitalist green economy is to transform ecological constraints on development into business opportunities. This may sound appealing but proves problematic on closer inspection. Emanuele Leonardi explains how this reasonable ideology fails by drawing on the work of Andre Gorz, the militant communist, editor of Les Temps Modernes, and journalist at Le Nouvel Observateur. The result connects degrowth thinking to Marxism. Labour, Nature, Value is a programmatic horizon for the socio-ecological conflicts proliferating internationally. The aim is to reduce pressure on the biosphere while facilitating an ever-wider diffusion of care activities and knowledge production. Degrowth and Marxism are natural allies in the fight for a fair and sustainable world.

'Well-researched and enthralling, Peter Ricketts brings the wartime Foreign Office to life.’ – Tim Bouverie 'The gripping story of how the men and women of the Foreign Office secured Britain's victory in the Second World War and created a new international order.' – Professor Helen McCarthy Discover the untold story of the British diplomats who shaped WWII—and the peace that followed—in this vivid exploration of a transformative moment in modern history.&nbsp; While military exploits and Churchill’s leadership dominate history books, Peace Makers reveals how the men and women of the Foreign Office forged alliances, supported resistance movements, managed refugee crises, and laid the groundwork for the post-war international order.&nbsp; From the rooftops of Whitehall during the Blitz to embassies under siege across Europe and Asia, diplomats and their families demonstrated extraordinary resilience and ingenuity. They evacuated civilians, backed resistance networks, gathered intelligence, and waged battles of persuasion. Some endured years apart from home; others, like staff in Tokyo, survived internment. Figures such as Archibald Clark Kerr in Moscow and Sir Alexander Cadogan in London steered critical alliances and helped shape the world to come.&nbsp; Peace Makers also explores how the war transformed the Foreign Office itself, sweeping away the barriers that had kept women out of top jobs. Through vivid portraits of pioneers like Freya Stark, Nancy Lambton, and Elizabeth Wiskemann, you'll learn how women began to rise to senior diplomatic ranks. It also features the first published account from the only surviving member of the wartime Foreign Office, who shares her extraordinary story of travelling with Anthony Eden to the great wartime Summits.&nbsp; Peace Makers brings these stories together in a compelling narrative that blends fresh research with vivid storytelling. It offers a new lens on the war—one that highlights diplomacy as a frontline force and reveals how its legacy continues to shape our world.&nbsp; This is essential reading for anyone interested in history, international affairs or the human stories behind global change.&nbsp; ---------------------------------------------- 'A fascinating account of how the Foreign Office helped turned wartime victory into postwar peace.’ – Professor David Reynolds 'Places the dedicated men and women in the British Foreign Office in the pantheon of WWIl heroes.’ – Rt Hon Andrew Mitchell'Who better than a former Permanent Secretary to take us on a riveting tour of the Foreign Office at war?’ – Professor Peter Hennessy'A fascinating account of the ingenuity and courage required of diplomats in wartime.' – Lord Hague&nbsp;

Palgrave Macmillan Studies in Banking and Financial Institutions

This book introduces resilience-based concepts and high reliability organization (HRO) principles—adapted from disruption-prone industries—to improve risk management for tail or extreme events in U.S. globally systemically important banks (G-SIBs). HROs thrive in volatile environments by prioritizing adaptability, vigilance, resilience, and safety. Given that both G-SIBs and disruption-prone companies operate in increasingly uncertain and complex settings, there is a shared need for risk management techniques centered on resilience engineering to anticipate and mitigate unexpected extreme events. While G-SIBs are "too big to fail" and provide valuable insights into resilience in high-stakes scenarios, these approaches can benefit banks of all sizes facing similar risks.
The book explores the social world of banking and management, emphasizing the subjective nature of risk as people interpret events differently. Through surveys, interviews, and case studies, the research identifies growing interest in non-predictive risk methods for bank resilience. It recommends supplementing existing quantitative risk models with a transdisciplinary approach focused on non-predictive HRO principles to help banks prevent and mitigate extreme risks. The study finds that current G-SIB risk methods rely heavily on quantitative models, which may create a false sense of security. Additionally, extreme events are increasingly compound and often driven by human behavior. The book targets scholars and professionals seeking advances in resilience engineering within banking.

Die COVID-19-Pandemie hat Vieles verändert - auch, was wir heute mit vielen präsenten Orten der Gesundheitskrise verbinden. Anhand der Beispiele Schweden und Mecklenburg-Vorpommern wird erstmals ausführlich untersucht, wie die Pandemie die medial-erzählerische Konstruktion von Räumen beeinflusst hat und welche grundlegenden Erzähltendenzen und Wertvorstellungen in den journalistischen Raumnarrativen dieser Zeit erkennbar werden. Dabei setzt sich die Studie erzähltheoretisch fundiert mit dem heute allgegenwärtigen Krisenbegriff auseinander und bietet eine methodisch innovative wie anschlussfähige Verbindung von Literaturwissenschaft, Diskurs- und Korpusanalyse für die Erforschung von gegenwärtigen und zukünftigen Krisendiskursen an.
