Human Rights Law in Perspective

This book offers an analysis of how the European Court of Human Rights engages with identity and emotion, revealing both the promise and the limitations of human rights law in addressing the complexities of human experience. The book explores how human rights law, often framed as universal and abstract, responds to deeply personal questions of identity, belonging, and emotional impact. Based on a systematic study of over 3,300 judgments, the book shows how the European Court of Human Rights has increasingly made identity central to its reasoning - particularly in cases involving sexuality, ethnicity, and family life. In these areas, the Court acknowledges how state actions shape emotions such as fear, humiliation, and dignity. Yet, in other domains - migration, religion, professional life - the Court avoids emotional engagement, leading to troubling inconsistencies. The book argues that when emotions are excluded from legal reasoning, individuals are reduced to formal entities, stripped of depth and interiority. Combining doctrinal analysis with insights from social theory and psychology, the book presents a new framework for understanding how emotions and identity interact with law. It traces the evolution of identity references across categories and highlights the Court's uneven treatment of emotional harm. This timely and original contribution speaks to legal scholars, practitioners, and theorists interested in human rights, identity politics, and the emotional dimensions of law. It calls for a more responsive and empathetic human rights jurisprudence - one that reflects the lived realities of those it seeks to protect.

Bioarchaeology and Social Theory

This is the first book to address theory and practice in Applied Bioarchaeology—a term used to describe bioarchaeological research which addresses matters of relevance today, and which actively engages people in the research process in ways that are respectful and relevant to the studied population, their communities, and their descendants. This book provides examples of best practice; identifies challenges and opportunities for developing the field of Applied Bioarchaeology; and illustrates the role of bioarchaeology in effecting change through advocacy and activism.

The book is divided into four parts. The first part, ‘Using Past Experience to Inform Modern Behaviour and Health’, demonstrates how bioarchaeology has the potential to contribute towards better appreciation of the diverse factors that influence behaviour and health, and how this information can shape, inform, and empower future decision-making, from individuals to wider health policies. The second part, ‘Developing Community-Led Research’, focuses on developing active community engagement in bioarchaeological research, with chapters arguing for community-led research designed to empower a wide range of peoples that have been marginalized (or even ignored) in traditional archaeological practice. The third part, ‘Bioarchaeology and the Arts’, illustrates how Applied Bioarchaeology is enhanced by cross-disciplinary teamwork, and how the arts can be used to create safe spaces to explore difficult issues, to aid us in critically reflecting on our practices, to interrogate gaps in knowledge, and to develop new ideas and ways of thinking, learning, and creating knowledge. The final part, ‘A Way Forward’, is a personal reflection written by Lorna Tilley, which argues the case for developing the field of Applied Bioarchaeology and suggests some possible approaches for achieving this goal.

Routledge New Directions in PR & Communication Research

As one of the key thinkers of social theory, public relations scholars have repeatedly turned to Habermas' work to inform their own scholarship. This book systematically reviews the distinct body of PR literature that has applied Habermas' theories to provide an in-depth and nuanced discussion on what this influential social theorist has to offer PR research. Demonstrating the applications and challenges for PR ethics and organizational communications, while opening less well-known concepts such as reflexivity, and double politics as avenues for future research, this unique source book will be of interest to all scholar and advanced students of public relations and communication studies.

As one of the key thinkers of social theory, public relations scholars have repeatedly turned to Habermas’ work. This book systematically reviews the body of public relations and communication literature that has applied Habermas’ theories for the first time, to provide an extensive and nuanced discussion on what one of the most influential social theorists has to offer public relations research. Taking concepts from seminal works such as the Theory of Communicative Action and the Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere, this book explores applications of Habermas’ concepts. It confronts conflicts with Habermas’ critical understanding of public relations as moral communication, and explores indepth the concepts of moral justification and differentiation of lifeworld and system for their potential for PR research and practice. Demonstrating the applications and challenges for public relations ethics, and organizational communications while opening less well-known concepts such as reflexivity, crisis consciousness, and double politics as avenues for future research, this book will help public relations researchers harness the potential of Habermas’ methodological tools. It will be of interest to all scholars and advanced students of public relations and communication studies.

Genders and Sexualities in the Social Sciences

“This thoughtfully curated collection of interdisciplinary essays not only interrogates Western understandings of feminist resistance but also challenges conventional understandings of the South Asian subcontinent as a motley crew of postcolonial states. Revealing it instead as a dynamic region marked by a variety of interconnected activisms. Taken together, the editor’s and authors’ feminist and critical regional South Asian lens on ideas and representations of gender and sexuality as well as movements, policies, and everyday experiences pertaining to gender and sexuality offer us invaluable fresh perspectives that help us re-envision linkages between the global, regional, and local.” —Elora Shehabuddin, Professor of Gender &amp; Women’s Studies, University of California, Berkeley, USA
“South Asia’s&nbsp; rich tradition of multiplicity in gender, colonialism and postcolonial, law, culture and economy, new patterns of gender politics, grassroots organizing, key legal cases, violence, migration, media and state strategies are all illuminated in this valuable collection of studies from six countries.” —Raewyn Connell, University of Sydney, Australia
“Drawing on ethnographic, historical, and theoretical legacies of gender diversity authors offer nuanced, original, and complex enactments of identities and activist social movements in South Asia.&nbsp;&nbsp; A provocative and valuable contribution to decolonizing studies of gender and sexuality”. —Chandra Talpade Mohanty, Distinguished Professor and Chair, Women’s and Gender Studies, Syracuse University, USA
This edited volume is a decolonial/deconstructive approach to South Asian gender and sexuality studies, which it reimagines through a pluralized, multivariate lens. It decenters hegemonic feminist debates and rearticulates gender and sexuality through critical regionalism, border-politics, land and social movements, indigeneity, law and jurisprudence and broader social textuality. Chapters offer perspectives from the humanities, social sciences, public health, international relations and law, as well as organizers and advocates committed to women and gender studies.&nbsp;

New Gender Politics in South Asia

This open access book argues that the scarcity created by the under-production of vaccines during the Covid-19 years was an entirely predictable, even legitimate consequence of how the international patent system works. Far from being a technical sub-discipline of intellectual property law that simply protects inventions, the international patent system is prismatic of the ways in which we fail to adapt to the challenges of our times: patent rights are intended to incentivise innovation for societal benefit, but in fact facilitate predictable injustice. The patent system ignores the care-constituted nature of our lives, prioritising limiting notions of fairness at the cost of structural harms. The Social Life of Intellectual Property proposes an ethic of just care to temper justice in the global governance of technology. It explores intellectual property as recurring social processes and explains why individual agency and shared responsibility are implicated. On an ecologically imperilled planet, and in a time between pandemics, we must reckon with what we are socialised to believe is legally possible. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

'Compelling and compassionate' Sadiq Khan 'Solutions-focused authorship at its best' Andrew Roberts 'A how-to book with inspired answers to our urgent questions' Lyse Doucet 'Read this book as an antidote to fatalism and gloom' Robert Peston 'Closely reported, surprising and, above all, hopeful' Jonathan Freedland At a time when democracies seem paralyzed by fear and populations are turning inward, award-winning journalist John Kampfner travels to ten countries confronting our shared challenges with bravery and imagination. - Taiwan's health system achieves 90% patient satisfaction at a fraction of the cost of the NHS. - Moroccan solar panels in the Sahara produce enough clean energy to power two million homes. - Estonia has transformed itself into a digital pioneer in a single generation - becoming the world's first fully digital government where 97.6% of citizens access state services online. - Costa Rica has tripled its economy while doubling its forest cover, proving that green policies can pay direct dividends. What unites these countries, and more, is a refusal to accept that difficult problems are unsolvable. The places showing true innovation are often those with their backs against the wall - not wealthy nations assuming they have all the answers. Braver New World is an urgent reminder that solutions exist. The question is whether we have the courage to learn. 'A persuasive and imaginative argument against the gloom of our times' Bronwen Maddox 'Seminal... A rallying cry for radical, pragmatic optimism; democratic and institutional courage' Shashi Tharoor 'A thought-provoking read, full of real ideas that could make Britain a better place' Lindsey Hilsum 'A must-read for Keir Starmer and anyone hoping to take over from him' The Rt Hon Jeremy Hunt

The selfie, the faux-vintage photo, the self-destructing image, the food photo—these new visual forms and the devices and platforms that facilitate them have fomented a cultural revolution. Not only has the art of photography and the industry around it been transformed, but the way we under-stand ourselves has changed. The Social Photo provides a language and conceptual framework to comprehend photography in the age of social media. This updated edition includes a new preface contemplating the fate of the social photo in the era of AI-generated images.

African Women in Law is the first empirical study to offer a comprehensive and contextually rich portrait of African women in the legal profession. Drawing on 153 interviews across six countries, 249 survey responses from 21 countries, and secondary literature from 15 countries, this groundbreaking book explores the representation of women in the bar, bench, and legal academia. It traces historical developments, examines current realities, and sets the stage for future research.

Introducing the HISP framework-History, Institutions, Social (norms), and Position(ality)-the book analyzes how structural forces shape women's roles in law. Through original concepts such as exclusion versus accommodation, racehorses versus workhorses, and the women's other-bar and other-bench, it challenges conventional narratives and highlights the diverse experiences of African women in law. The volume also builds on matri-legal feminist theory to offer a fresh lens for understanding gender and justice in African contexts.

Rejecting essentialist approaches, the book argues that there is no single narrative of the lived experiences of African women in law. Instead, it reveals how women have emerged from the margins of a male-dominated field to assume leadership roles, often through innovative strategies that overcome systemic barriers. As the first comparative study of its kind, African Women in Law establishes a vital foundation for future scholarship and inspires new questions, methods, and theories for exploring law, gender, and governance across the continent.

Charitable donation law faces a persistent challenge when testators leave gifts to charities that no longer exist, creating uncertainty that often leads to costly litigation between intended beneficiaries. This book examines how traditional legal scholarship has attempted to resolve these disputes, and proposes fundamental reforms to create more robust, donor-friendly frameworks.Drawing on extensive case law surrounding failed charitable bequests, this book demonstrates how traditional approaches to "mapping" and "bringing order" to legal precedents have failed to address the underlying policy concerns that drive these disputes. Through comparison of various flawed legislative reforms in New Zealand and South Australia, the book identifies the shortcomings of existing approaches and develops a comprehensive blueprint for reform that prioritises legal certainty while protecting donor intentions. Through systematic analysis of judicial reasoning and legislative responses across multiple jurisdictions, this book challenges fundamental assumptions about how charity law should develop and offers concrete proposals for creating more effective legal structures.This interdisciplinary analysis will be of particular interest to researchers in charity law, trusts and estates, and comparative legal studies. The book's integration of doctrinal analysis with policy critique and reform proposals makes it essential reading for academics working at the intersection of private law and social policy.

An acclaimed New York Times Magazine writer brings us into the world of the controversial technology firm Palantir and its very colorful and outspoken CEO, Alex Karp, tracing the ascent of Big Data, the rise of surveillance technology, and the shifting global balance of power in the 21st century. Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends, and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the US government in the war on terrorism—an early investor was the CIA—Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the US military, dozens of federal agencies, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the 21st century. Its CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he’s a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir’s work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp’s close friend and Palantir cofounder Peter Thiel. In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger explores the world of Alex Karp, Palantir, and the future that they are leading us toward. It is an urgent and illuminating work about one of Silicon Valley’s most secretive and powerful companies, whose technology is at the leading edge of the surveillance state.

This book considers women’s child contact experiences in the context of abuse and comes from a feminist epistemology. It brings together survivor and professional experiences of the family contact system in England and Wales, applying systems theories to examine how the whole system works together to drive change across different organisations and settings. It focusses on three studies from England and Wales which make use of innovative designs to capture the perspectives of survivors and professionals. It develops the field by emphasizing survivor voices and providing theory-based explanations of the findings to aid understanding and drive change. This book is led by survivor voices who suggest the system is ineffective and hinders progress, well-being and safety. Professional insights add to the discussion, highlighting ineffective practice across the system and damaging myths that impact survivor and child outcomes. The book provides a broad picture, considering how women navigate child contact with fathers who have been abusive, and the challenges they face with the current system. It speaks to those looking to compare systems and practices across countries. The book may be of interest to those working, studying or researching in child protection, family law, domestic abuse, social work, and/or policing.
