Sport in the Global Society – Contemporary Perspectives

This book examines the evolving relationship between women and sport, a growing area of study in the 21st century. The connection between women and sport can be understood through three major perspectives: women and sport, women in sport, and women's sport. Within this framework, the book focuses on the rendezvous between women and soccer, exploring this dynamic across global, transnational, regional, national, and local contexts. It delves into extant literature, contexts, categories, methodologies, and key themes, issues, roles, and questions to uncover her stories in the history of soccer.The authors provide documentary, discursive, and analytical perspectives on the connection between women and soccer, addressing some of the most critical themes that shape women's engagement with the sport in different societies. These themes have influenced not only the women's game but also women's diverse participation and roles in connection with soccer - both women's and men's. The book explores themes such as professionalization, migration, talent, leadership, networks, agency, empowerment, gender, femininity, motherhood, sexism, lesbianism, masculinity, resistance, and identity.Covering broad subject areas such as gender studies, women's history, sports history, sociology, and cultural studies, this book is an essential resource for academics, researchers, students, and enthusiasts seeking to understand the multifaceted dynamics of women's involvement in soccer and its broader societal implications.The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Soccer &amp; Society and are now accompanied by a newly updated Introduction.

How apprenticeship shaped the English economy Apprenticeship dominated training and skill formation in early modern Europe. Years spent learning from a skilled master were a nearly universal experience for young workers in crafts and trade. In England, when apprenticeship reached its peak, as many as a third of all teenage males would serve and learn as apprentices. In The Market for Skill, Patrick Wallis shows how apprenticeship helped reshape the English economy. Some historians see apprenticeship as a key ingredient in the industrial revolution; others agree with Adam Smith in seeing it as wasteful and conservative. Wallis shows that neither of these perspectives is entirely accurate. He offers a new account of apprenticeship and the market for skill in England, analyzing the records of hundreds of thousands of individual apprentices to tell the story of how apprenticeship worked and how it contributed to the transformation of England. Wallis details the activities of apprentices and masters, the strategies of ambitious parents, the interventions of guilds and the decisions of town officials. He shows how the system of early modern apprenticeship contributed to the growth of cities, the movement of workers from farms to manufacturing and the spread of new technologies and productive knowledge. In this groundbreaking study, Wallis argues that apprenticeship succeeded precisely because it was a flexible institution which allowed apprentices to change their minds and exit contracts early. Apprenticeship provided a vital channel for training that families could trust and that was accessible to most young people, whatever their background.

***Winner of the Financial Times Business Book of the Year award***UPDATED EDITION WITH A NEW AFTERWORD 'Pulse quickening. A nonfiction thriller - equal parts The China Syndrome&nbsp;and Mission Impossible'&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp; An epic account of the decades-long battle to control the world's most critical resource-microchip technology Power in the modern world - military, economic, geopolitical - is built on a foundation of computer chips. America has maintained its lead as a superpower because it has dominated advances in computer chips and all the technology that chips have enabled. (Virtually everything runs on chips: cars, phones, the stock market, even the electric grid.) Now that edge is in danger of slipping, undermined by the naïve assumption that globalising the chip industry and letting players in Taiwan, Korea and Europe take over manufacturing serves America's interests. Currently, as Chip War reveals, China, which spends more on chips than any other product, is pouring billions into a chip-building Manhattan Project to catch up to the US.&nbsp; In Chip War economic historian Chris Miller recounts the fascinating sequence of events that led to the United States perfecting chip design, and how faster chips helped defeat the Soviet Union (by rendering the Russians' arsenal of precision-guided weapons obsolete). The battle to control this industry will shape our future.&nbsp;China spends more money importing chips than buying oil, and they are China's greatest external vulnerability as they are fundamentally reliant on foreign chips. But with 37 per cent of the global supply of chips being made in Taiwan, within easy range of Chinese missiles, the West's fear is that a solution may be close at hand.&nbsp; 'A riveting history. Features vivid accounts and colourful characters' Financial Times 'Fascinating...A historian by training, Miller walks the reader through decades of semiconductor history - a subject that comes to life thanks to [his] use of colourful anecdotes' Forbes&nbsp; 'Indispensable' Niall Ferguson

Ancient Wisdom for Modern Readers

An energetic new translation of the ancient Greek satirist Lucian’s humorous and enlightening dialogue on the pros—and cons—of athletics, fitness, and competition Sports and philosophy went hand in hand for the ancient Greeks and Romans, and philosophical conversation was a recognized part of gym life throughout Greco-Roman antiquity. Athens’s Lyceum was a gym—and reportedly a hangout of that philosophical gym rat Socrates—before it became the site of Aristotle’s school. Fittingly, that gym is the setting of the Greek satirist Lucian’s Anacharsis, a witty philosophical dialogue that wrestles with questions about the purpose and value of sports—questions that we are still grappling with in our own sports- and fitness-obsessed times. How to Compete presents a new translation of Lucian’s timeless classic, inviting us into a ringside debate about the point of sports. Pitting a sports skeptic, Anacharsis, against a superfan, Solon, this delightful and thought-provoking work tries to make sense of sports. Why do so many of us care so much about them? Are sports like boxing too violent? Should we take fitness so seriously? Do athletics have educational value? And, most important of all, why did the ancient Greeks exercise naked? While Anacharsis, observing a Greek sport that sounds something like mixed martial arts, asks what kind of citizens set aside serious affairs to watch young men beat each other to a pulp, Solon counters that sports have great civic benefits and that athletes are ultimately competing for the highest prize—human excellence. Featuring an inviting introduction, a handy glossary, helpful notes, and the original Greek on facing pages, How to Compete is a winning exploration of why sports are more than just a game.

Routledge IAFFE Advances in Feminist Economics

In the wake of the global financial crisis, governments in many countries have imposed widespread cuts in public expenditure and social rights, some of which have been so dramatic that they have been described as 'austericide'. This book explores the financial crisis and the policies implemented in response to it in terms of the differences in the ways in which women and men have been affected by it, using an approach which combines feminist economics and a political economy framework. The book's aim is to question conventional economic theories in order to present more critical and realistic policy approaches. The breadth of the book's exploration of the impact of the cuts, exploring issues such as gender stereotyping and the sustainability of welfare systems, moves it beyond other analyses of gender and the crisis.

Suddenly, everything seems up for grabs about the medicines we take: Do they really work as advertised? Do some of them have dangerous, undisclosed side effects? Why are they so expensive, even unaffordable? A leading medical expert provides a clear-headed, dispassionate understanding of life-and-death questions that have suddenly become so contentious. Groundbreaking research has given us many remarkable new drugs to treat conditions that have plagued patients for generations. But at the same time America’s drug evaluation process, once the envy of the world, is being seriously undermined. Under pressure from the pharmaceutical industry and politicians, the Food and Drug Administration has lowered its approval standards to allow new medicines onto the market without the rigorous assessment that once made it the global gold standard for medication regulation. Instead of carefully reviewed scientific evidence, government officials now make alarming public statements about effectiveness and risks, unmoored from scientific evidence. All this while out-of-control drug prices—far higher in the US than anywhere else in the world—put badly needed treatments beyond the reach of many patients. Dr. Jerry Avorn, a physician and professor of medicine at Harvard, has been studying these issues for decades. In Rethinking Medications, he engagingly explains how we got here and provides concrete solutions to ensure that all our medicines are effective, safe, and affordable. The book takes on the most fundamental aspects of the medicines we take: <ul> <li>Does it work? Who says? How do we know?</li> <li>Is it safe? What’s the evidence? How can we be sure?</li> <li>Why is my prescription so expensive? Is it worth what it costs? Who determines that price? Why does the US pay twice as much as other countries for the same medicines?</li> <li>With new leadership at FDA, CDC, NIH, and the whole Department of Health and Human Services, who decides these life-and-death questions for the nation, and how well are they doing their jobs?</li> <li>…and finally: how do all these issues affect the choices that patients and doctors make every day?</li> </ul> Rethinking Medications draws on Dr. Avorn’s long experience as a clinician, outspoken patient advocate, and the founder of an internationally respected research group at Harvard. He illustrates this accessible and entertaining account with examples from cancer drugs to opioids, from treatments for rare diseases to psychedelics. Throughout, Dr. Avorn proposes practical advice for consumers, policymakers, and practitioners to address these problems. At a time when all our assumptions about scientific evidence, regulation, pricing, and the role of government are under assault as never before, this book points to actionable solutions within reach and a way out of the current confusion, beyond all the noise.
