Media Maelstrom: How News Shapes Our Understanding of Trauma

Hench Series

The Boys meets Assistant to the Villain in the electrifying, sharp, violent, and hilarious sequel to the highly acclaimed novel, Hench. Filled with a queer and neurodiverse cast, Villain asks the question: what happens when a diabolically brilliant henchperson looks back at their already storied career and thinks, I can be so much worse.The hench once called Anna, now known to her colleagues and enemies as the Auditor, has carved out a wicked name for herself. Any superhero unlucky enough to cross her path knows her potential and powers. Surely, her recent success should taste sweet: she has an incredible job with lots of perks, her boss will literally annihilate anyone who crosses her, and her greatest enemy, the former hero Supercollider, has been utterly defeated—literally ground to a still-living pulp.But the Auditor still has her sights set on a greater work: destroying The Draft, the organization that makes, trains, and manages the world’s most powerful superheroes. These “heroes” have shown time and time again that they do more harm than good (she has the spreadsheets to prove it), and now is the time to stop the damage at its source.Yet all is not well for the Auditor and her fellow evildoers. Her employer, Leviathan—the world’s most feared supervillain—is not coping well with Supercollider’s defeat at someone else’s hands. As their relationship deepens, her work-life balance increasingly involves navigating the feelings of someone who doesn’t believe they have any. Moreover, her unlikely ally and unexpected friend, Quantum Entanglement, has reappeared, forcing the Auditor to confront all the ways they deceived each other. Tension and uncertainty haunt the Auditor, and the fear that their triumph is about to crumble looms over all of them.The Auditor&nbsp;soon finds herself facing down an opponent unlike any she’s taken on before—not another superhero, but someone like her, someone much more dangerous: The Draft’s Chief Marketing Officer. Their conflict isn’t a test of physical prowess, but ideas, and as their fight escalates, she'll need more than preternatural pattern recognition, data analysis, and a horrific imagination to meet this challenge. It’s guerrilla ad warfare, and the Auditor might have finally met her match.

Villain

If you're trying to be all things to all people, juggling work overload with multiple caring responsibilities for younger and older generations, the chances are the one person you're not looking after is you. At work, you might be struggling to get a promotion, facing redundancy, or just feeling stuck or bored. Maybe your relationship is less happy than it was, or close friendships are dissolving, and on top of it all, come the challenges of menopause. It's overwhelming, you feel it can't go on - and it doesn't have to. Your Time helps you identify what's been holding you back, whether it's old ways of thinking from your childhood, that 'impostor' voice in your head you can't banish or conflicts you have been avoiding. For over three decades, Jenny Rogers has enabled women to find their unique voice and speak up, galvanize their careers, repair their relationships (and help them find new ones), and show them what they are truly capable of. And now she will do that for you, too. For too long it's been all about other people - now it's all about you.

The Book for Women Who Do It All

Your Time

Critical Criminological Perspectives

This edited book centres the experiences of groups and individuals who have historically received little attention in the broader framing of victimology, victims movements and wider society. With a mainstream political discourse underpinned by conceptions of deservingness and idealised constructions of victimhood, many groups and individuals— including sex workers, non-human animals, sexual minorities, families of the convicted, and people from working-class communities are marginalised from important debates. This book provides an intersectional examination of victimisation with a discussion of new and existing forms of victimisation linking to theories. It&nbsp;has four themed sections on: hidden violence and abuse,&nbsp;co-victims and retraumatization, recognizing and restoring hidden and unrecognized victims&nbsp;and non-human victims. It supports the need for greater recognition and understanding of these groups, the ethical implications of current and future policy and practice, and innovations in theory and conceptual debates. It speaks to&nbsp;the disciplines of Sociology, Criminology, and Social Work, and for anyone who works with victims in practice.Dr Ian Mahoney
 &nbsp;is Senior Lecturer in Criminology and Deputy Director of the Centre for Crime, Offending, Prevention and Engagement at Nottingham Trent University, UK. His research is currently focused around exploring memetic warfare, and understanding and addressing the harms and impacts of crime and contact with the justice system across diverse groups. Drawing upon Transformative Justice principles he is currently exploring approaches to better understanding societal barriers to effective rehabilitation and reintegration.
 &nbsp;Dr Hind Elhinnawy
 &nbsp;is Senior Lecturer in Criminology at Nottingham Trent University, UK, and Chair of the Critical Criminology and Social Justice Research Group. Her work bridges feminist, anti-racist, and decolonial scholarship with grassroots activism, focusing on marginalised voices and structural inequality. Hind’s research interrogates the politics of recognition, epistemic injustice, and the silencing of minoritised communities—particularly Muslim women, and survivors of institutional harm. Hind’s activism includes a landmark legal case in Egypt that led to changes in family law, securing recognition for single mothers and children born outside wedlock.

Should we give up privacy to fight disease, for national security, or to help train AI systems? Recent crises, from the Covid-19 pandemic to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, from Gaza and Afghanistan to the seemingly unstoppable rise of AI, have put privacy under severe pressure. Privacy in Crisis argues the opposite: these crises show that privacy needs to be protected even more. Privacy in Crisis looks at vital current issues: at political manipulation and misinformation, government surveillance, racial tension, hybrid and cyberwarfare (and real wars, such as those in Ukraine and Gaza), the overwhelming power of the internet giants, and surveillance society, and how interference with privacy is key in all of them. It shows how specific crises bring many of these issues together in perfect storms of privacy invasion. The different threats to our privacy revealed by these crises tell parallel stories and are inextricably linked. There are common themes and common technologies - the threats involve the same data, the same profiling systems and the same approaches. In many cases the systems are run or owned by the same small set of companies, controlled by the same few people. Addressing them is difficult but possible - this essential book outlines how.

Interdisziplinäre Perspektiven auf Kriminalität | Interdisciplinary perspectives on crime

In diesem Buch werden die Auswirkungen der COVID-19-Pandemie auf das Hilfesystem für Betroffene von geschlechtsspezifischer Gewalt gegen Frauen und Mädchen sowie auf das Gewaltphänomen selbst am Beispiel Baden-Württembergs untersucht. Expert*inneninterviews gewähren dazu Einsichten in die Herausforderungen, mit denen Hilfeeinrichtungen im Zuge der pandemiebedingten Restriktionen konfrontiert waren sowie in deren Wahrnehmungen hinsichtlich potenzieller Veränderungen im Hinblick auf partnerschaftliche und sexualisierte Gewalt. Ergänzend wird dabei auch ein Blick auf die quantitative Entwicklung polizeilich erfasster Fälle von Partnerschaftsgewalt und von Sexualdelikten geworfen.Die Analysen der Interviews zeigen: Die Hilfeeinrichtungen für Betroffene von partnerschaftlicher und sexualisierter Gewalt waren in der krisenhaften Situation umso mehr gefordert, konnten aufgrund der Lockdown-Maßnahmen jedoch nicht wie bisher Unterstützung für Betroffene leisten.

Das Buch folgt dem Kreuzweg Sieger Köders, den er für die Pfarrkirche in Bensberg (Bergisch Gladbach) schuf. Aufrüttelnd und anschaulich erzählen Claudia und Ulrich Peters dazu die Geschehnisse um Jesus und bringen sie mit unserer Lebenswirklichkeit zusammen. Trauern und klagen, Niederlagen zulassen, Lasten tragen, Aussichtslosigkeit aushalten und schließlich zu sterben und Verwandlung erfahren - alles hat darin seinen Platz. So ist der Kreuzweg nicht nur ein Leidensweg, sondern ein Weg zum Leben. Ein wertvoller Begleiter durch die Fastenzeit, mit Anregungen, wie der Kreuzweg in Gemeinden von Kindern und Erwachsenen gegangen werden kann

Warum funktioniert unsere Demokratie nicht mehr so wie bislang? Hans Vorländers brillante Analyse 
 
 Während die Anzahl der liberalen Demokratien in Europa und der Welt stetig abnimmt, sind Autokratien auf dem Vormarsch. Was ist der Grund dafür, dass immer mehr Menschen mit autoritären Parteien sympathisieren oder tatsächlich rechtspopulistische Regierungen ins Amt wählen? Ist die liberale und repräsentative Demokratie, wie sie sich nach 1945 herausgebildet und konsolidiert hat, zu ihrem Ende gekommen? Was kann danach kommen? 
 
 Die Vielzahl an Krisen in den letzten beiden Jahrzehnten - von der Finanzkrise über die Migrationsbewegungen bis zur Corona-Pandemie und dem Krieg in der Ukraine - hat zu einer permanenten Überforderung demokratischer Politik geführt. Hans Vorländer, einer der profiliertesten Politikwissenschaftler mit dem Schwerpunkt Demokratieforschung, vermisst in diesem Buch den Zustand der Demokratie. Er zeigt auf, wie sich die liberale Demokratie nach 1945 konsolidierte und wie sie 1989/1990 triumphierte. Detailliert und kenntnisreich beschreibt er, wie Krisen die Problemlösungsfähigkeit der Demokratie herausfordern, wie der Populismus in die Bruchstelle der repräsentativen Demokratie stößt und wie die Demokratie - weltweit - zur Autokratie umgebaut wird. Aber er beantwortet auch die Frage, wie die Zukunft der Demokratie aussehen könnte und wie sich Demokratie neu denken und institutionalisieren lässt.

Das Ende der Demokratie, wie wir sie kennen

Palgrave Insights into Apocalypse Economics

This book reassesses classic Marxist theories of finance capital and uneven development in the context of the present intensified process of financialization and the accentuation of combined and accelerating uneven development. In particular, the work of Hilferding and Luxemburg is discussed and re-framed in light of both the contributions of Marx and more recent engagements by David Harvey and Neil Smith. The book explores the case of South Africa in particular in light of the combination of a rapidly financializing yet crisis-ridden South African political economy on the one hand and intensifying social inequality and political conflict on the other.&nbsp;It explores a series of strategies and possibilities that might open up trajectories for change and transformation with particular attention paid to the promises and constraints of the de-growth movement and intersectional class struggle, which will appeal to political economists, researchers, and students alongside those studying South Africa specifically. Patrick Bond is a political economist and professor at the University of Johannesburg, South Africa. He spent more than two decades teaching at the Wits University School of Governance in Johannesburg and the University of KwaZulu-Natal Centre for Civil Society in Durban. During the late 1980s he pursued doctoral studies in economic geography at Johns Hopkins University, while learning politics in the anti-apartheid, labour, student and community movements. In 1994 and 1996, he worked in the Reconstruction and Development Ministry in President Nelson Mandela’s office, drafting the democratic government’s first White Paper and a dozen other major policy documents. He appears more than 100 times a year on South African and international broadcast media, and usually gives more than 50 guest lectures annually.

Hart Studies in Information Law and Regulation

This book brings together leading academics working on data protection law in the EU to analyse the most notable developments, and the most significant changes, which have occurred during the first 5 years of the GDPR.

The book includes contributions analysing the efficacy of the Regulation's consent-based model, the struggle to regulate AdTech using the provisions of the GDPR, the controversy surrounding US-EU data sharing and the interaction of the Regulation with EU Fundamental Rights and other secondary laws regulating data.

The book is unique in setting out to record a period of rapid development - and significant challenge - for EU law through its examination of these episodes in the life of the Regulation in a single text. Each chapter examines the changes introduced by the GDPR, analyses the effect of the Regulation in practice, and maps what the next 5 years holds for one of the world's most influential data privacy laws. The lineup of the editorial and author team reflects the pioneering role of female academics in data protection and GDPR discourse.

In highlighting the controversies and conflicts which the Regulation has faced in its first 5 years, the book illuminates the significance of the GDPR's introduction in advancing our thinking about the function, form, and future of data protection law, and outlines those matters that remain to be resolved as the GDPR moves towards its first decade in force.

Critical Reflections on the EU’s Data Protection Regime

A unique look at crisis leadership and the hard but invaluable lessons that can be learned in difficult and uncertain times. Our fascination with leadership runs deep and has done so for centuries - just witness the books on Nelson, Churchill and Thatcher. But what exactly are the attributes and competencies that separate those who lead effectively from those who won't, don't or can't? For many people, the acid test of true leadership comes during moments of crisis, when the stakes are highest and the decisions most difficult. It's no surprise, then, that our fascination with stories of leaders overcoming great adversity is endless. This interest has been exacerbated in recent years as every organization in the world has found itself in a crisis at some level, whether due to a collapse in sales, an unexpected spike in demand, a logistics nightmare or the sheer uncertainty that the Covid-19 pandemic wrought. Leading from the Frontline offers multiple perspectives of leadership from across multiple types of crisis. Each chapter tells the story of a leader who steered their organization through a particularly tumultuous period. It looks at the challenges they faced, the decisions they were forced to make, the personal pressures they encountered, the lessons they learned and the mistakes they made. It also examines how the crisis they responded to subsequently changed their organization or the environment in which they operate. Including issues of a medical, socio-political, environmental and military nature, while featuring a range of reputational crises case studies, Leading from the Frontline is essential reading for any leader to prepare their organization for uncertain futures.
