The Little Book of Business

A history of the technology of supply-chain management from punch cards to neural nets, and how the ambiguity built into that technology helps companies and exploits workersSeeing Like a Supply Chain is a compelling investigation into the hidden networks that drive our global economy. Miriam Posner presents a blow-by-blow account of the technology of supply-chain management from punch cards to neural nets, revealing how the system's built-in ambiguity shields companies from accountability while exploiting workers.Drawing on more than a decade of research, Posner shows how computation converged with the growth of global trade to allow for a lightning-quick, astoundingly efficient supply chain that lets corporations source products without any notion of where their goods are actually being produced. At a time when multinational firms fear the reputational damage of human rights violations in the making of their products, the supply chain's shroud of vagueness is a feature, not a bug. Posner shows how this is technically accomplished-and how the strategic disavowal of information extends through every step of that chain.

Digitale Transformation

*Shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize* 'A fascinating exploration of the linkages between ancestral inheritance, diasporic belonging, and our climate future... I read it in one sitting, which took me on a moving and often unexpected journey' Aube Rey Lescure 'Part of me knew what the hungry ghosts wanted all along, what they still want. It is not vengeance. No, they want something else, but we refuse to listen. They want us to face up to our broken obligations.' Every spring during the Qingming Festival, people return to their home villages in China to sweep the tombs of their ancestors, making offerings of food and incense to prevent them from becoming hungry ghosts that could cause misfortune. Yet for the past century, a time ruptured by war and revolution, many tombs have been left unattended. Following a record year of wildfires, Alice Mah returns to her family's rice village in South China, and discovers that her ancestors are almost forgotten, and there are no tombs left to sweep. Instead, there are incalculable clan debts to be paid.Here Mah chronicles her journey from the rice villages of South China to her home in post-industrial England, through the Chinatowns of Western Canada where she grew up, to the isles and industry of Scotland where she now lives. As years pass and fires rage on, she becomes increasingly troubled by her ancestors' neglected graves. Her research on pollution gives way to growing eco-anxiety, culminating in a crisis of spiritual belief.A haunting blend of memoir, cultural history and environmental exploration, Red Pockets confronts the hungry ghosts of our neglected ancestors, while searching for an acceptable offering. What do we owe to past and future generations? What do we owe to the places that we inhabit?

An Offering

Red Pockets

Bloomsbury Fandom Primers

This book delves into the world of "fandom nationalism," where the lines between fan devotion and nationalistic fervor blur within the East Asian media landscape. Taking a non-Western perspective in fan studies, this book challenges conventional understandings of fandom nationalism. While the concept usually describes how citizens passionately adore their nation akin to idolizing celebrities, this ground-breaking research adds a captivating twist: such passion encompasses not only the expressions of love fans shower upon their idols but also the intense hatred anti-fans direct towards stars - fans strategically employ nationalism as a weapon to win fan wars. This enriches the concept of fandom nationalism, exploring how fans use participatory censorship practices to accuse celebrities and their followers of problematic political stances, thereby channeling collective nationalist anger to exact revenge on despised celebrities, such as Zhang Zhehan, a Boys' Love drama actor who was banned by the authorities and the industry for taking photos at the Yasukuni Shrine in Japan. Through a thorough review of relevant literature and detailed fieldwork data, this book reveals how fans and anti-fans participate in various stages of the banning process, leading to the career downfall of top stars in China. This brutal battleground, akin to cancel culture, is a product of the collusion among fans, netizens, the party-state, media platforms, and businesses, where fans' participation in nationalist practices can also be performative patriotism, driven by the desire to protect their idols and themselves. Using examples from China and beyond, Fandom Nationalism explores the relationship between fandom and the state more broadly.

Participatory Censorship and Performative Patriotism in East Asia

Fandom Nationalism

What if the biggest obstacle to solving our problems is nothing more than a failure to believe that we can?Rick Caruso has spent his life stepping optimistically into places where other people see no way forward by asking a deceptively simple question: What can we do to make this better? From his appointment as Commissioner to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and later the City's troubled Police Department, to the creation of his bold and innovative real estate ventures including L.A.'s world-renowned retail center The Grove, Caruso built a reputation for finding steadfast solutions even in the face of staunch adversity. By employing the great teachers of experience and curiosity, he continues to do what he can to improve Los Angeles, the city he loves, and in Breaking New Ground, he shares lessons learned along the way--while offering us all a path forward to a better future.Again and again, Caruso discovered that breakthroughs rarely come from knowing everything at the outset. They come from asking better questions, bringing the right people into the room, listening without ego, separating ideology from reality, and refusing to give up until workable solutions emerge. Ultimately, they require a steadfast dedication to the belief that there is always a solution and that defeat is not an option.Breaking New Ground is the story of how his philosophy was forged--from the examples of immigrant grandparents and a father who lost one fortune and built another, to Caruso's own successes, failures, public battles, family life, faith, and unexpected turns through business and government.Caruso is less interested in prescribing a formula for becoming successful than in exploring how successful problem-solvers think: how they distinguish what matters from what merely makes noise; how they balance conviction with compromise; how they recognize when conventional wisdom has stopped working; and how they remain fearless enough to see difficult decisions through.Part memoir, part argument, and part blueprint for action, Breaking New Ground offers a timely proposition for anyone confronting a problem that feels too complicated, entrenched, or divisive to solve.There is always another way forward. Sometimes you simply have to be willing to build it.

It’s Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!

The Power of Finding Steadfast Solutions

Breaking New Ground

Palgrave Studies in Discursive Psychology

This book offers a collection of detailed, empirically grounded chapters examining how ethnomethodology, conversation analysis, discursive&nbsp;psychology&nbsp;and membership categorisation analysis illuminate the interactional foundations of criminal justice. &nbsp;It draws on&nbsp;naturally&nbsp;occurring,&nbsp;recorded encounters across a broad range of settings, from emergency calls to police interviews, courtrooms, the forensic laboratory, youth justice, and mediation services.&nbsp;
 Part of a two-volume project, 
 Analysing Conversations in Forensic Settings, Volume I
 &nbsp;illuminates the interactional dilemmas&nbsp;participants face in&nbsp;when negotiating fact,&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;and competence in real time across criminal justice settings and as they play out in&nbsp;global (social) media.&nbsp;The collection shows how statutory guidance, evidential requirements and decision‑making practices surface within interactional exchanges.&nbsp;
 
 Designed for scholars in criminology, psychology, sociology and forensic linguistics, as well as practitioners seeking evidence‑based insights, this edited collection
 &nbsp;
 establishes the methodological and analytical foundations for understanding criminal justice as an interactional accomplishment, setting the stage for how categories and identities are constructed, negotiated and contested in criminal justice work developed in Volume II.
 Emma Richardson 
 is Senior Lecturer in Language and Social Interaction at Loughborough University, UK. She uses conversation analysis applied to real police emergency calls and investigative interviews to understand how reports of domestic and sexual violence are made and progressed through the criminal justice system.
 Laura Jenkins
  is Senior Vice Chancellor Independent Research Fellow at Loughborough University, UK. Her expertise lies in recording and studying real conversations, using conversation analysis to generate new knowledge on human interaction across a range of everyday and institutional settings.&nbsp;

Accomplishing Justice in Practice

Analysing Conversations in Forensic Settings, Volume I

This book reframes housing as essential safety infrastructure, demonstrating how safety, stability and recovery are shaped by place, community and connection. Through its focus on rural experiences, it offers a compelling analysis of the conditions that enable women and children to live free from violence without sacrificing the people, places and identities that sustain them. We can learn much from rural contexts in how we think about housing, safety and belonging, in our collective efforts to eliminate violence against women.-Professor Sarah Wendt, University of MelbourneThis Pivot book examines the complex relationship between domestic and family violence, homelessness and rural life in Australia. Challenging conventional understandings of homelessness, the book argues that housing is not simply a response to violence but a form of safety infrastructure. Bringing together theory, policy analysis and practitioner evidence from a rural homelessness service, it explores how violence, housing scarcity, cultural safety, visibility, trust, and service systems shape women’s pathways to safety. The book introduces the concepts of spatial safety, constrained agency, and intersectional rurality to explain why women are often forced to choose between safety and belonging. Offering important insights for researchers, policymakers and practitioners, it presents a systems-based framework for creating safer rural communities.Dr Helena Menih
 is Senior Lecturer in Crime, Justice and Legal Studies in the School of Humanities and Social Sciences at La Trobe University, Australia. Her research focuses on domestic and family violence, gender-based violence, homelessness, family law, criminal justice, and the social and structural factors that shape vulnerability and exclusion. Drawing on both academic scholarship and professional practice, her work examines the intersections of violence, housing insecurity, justice systems, and social policy to inform policy, practice, and social justice outcomes. This book reflects her longstanding interest in the relationship between violence, housing, place, and women’s pathways to safety, recovery, and belonging in contemporary Australia.

Safety Without Losing Place

Housing, Violence and Homelessness in Rural Australia

This book examines why the liberal international order, once seemingly unassailable, now confronts existential questions in the twenty-first century's opening decades. It shows how the rise of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), BRICS, and Bitcoin-the '3 Bs'- has signalled a fundamental shift in global power dynamics and governance frameworks. It analyzes how these three externalities challenge core assumptions about international cooperation, economic governance, and hegemonic leadership. They also posit alternative visions: infrastructure-led connectivity, multipolar economic alliances, and decentralized financial systems that bypass traditional Western institutions. Moving beyond nostalgia or triumphalism, it explores what frameworks might emerge as the world transitions from unipolarity-and whether liberal internationalism can adapt, reform, or must yield to fundamentally different organizing principles for global order.The volume will be of great interest to researchers and students of politics and international relations, development studies and international organizations. Accessible and comprehensive, it will also be of interest to general readers.

3 Bs and a Crumbling World Order

Palgrave Studies in Race, Ethnicity, Indigeneity and Criminal Justice

The edited collection gathers contributions from across the world and engages in constructive debate about fundamental issues regarding Indigenous peoples in connection with issues of crime and harm. It provides the most diverse and global coverage of this topic across five continents. Existing explorations of Indigenous peoples in relation to issues of crime and harm have proven valuable in challenging, decentring, and renewing criminology. Yet, this research area remains at the margins of criminology, and many fundamental questions—such as the meaning of ‘being Indigenous’—await deeper exploration. Key themes explored by the book include: the meaning of Indigeneity; Indigenous epistemologies, Indigenous cosmologies, and their implications for the study of crime; the meaning of ‘crime’ for Indigenous peoples; causes, consequences, and types of crimes and harms against Indigenous Peoples; Indigenous peoples and gender; Indigenous systems of justice; and Interactions between Indigenous Peoples and state criminal justice systems. This collection does not seek consensus but reflects diversity and depth. It offers an introduction to Indigenous criminology and fundamental concepts, as well as a series of case studies and more intricate theorisation.David R. Goyes
 is a researcher at the University of Oslo, Norway, with a PhD in criminology. He has contributed extensively to the study of North-South global relations, environmental conflicts, and Indigenous issues. Goyes is editor-in-chief of the 
 International Journal for Crime, Justice and Social Democracy
 and a member of several editorial boards.
 Angie Cuchimba
 is a researcher at the Universidad Antonio Nariño, Colombia. Cuchimba holds a law degree from the same university. She is an Indigenous leader in the Nasa Community and has represented her People worldwide in diverse meetings. Together with Goyes, Cuchimba has published articles about Indigenous rights and justice in some of the best journals in the world.

Indigenous People, Crime, and Harm

An open invitation to changemakers, educators, conscious consumers, and anyone interested in the creative economy to lean into this grassroots global community and help drive systems change. We live in an age where every convenience is a finger tap away, but historically marginalized communities and ecosystems are paying the price of unconscious consumption. Our current economic practices contribute to environmental damage, social injustice, and declining public trust. The solution, argues Stacey Edgar, social entrepreneur and executive director of the International Folk Art Market, is the artisan economy. In contrast to the profit-at-all-costs model of the mainstream economy, the artisan approach to production and consumption encourages creativity, preserves culture, and cultivates connection. In Artisan Economics, Edgar proposes a shift toward this artisan-centric model that prioritizes creativity, dignity, and community. Drawing on stories and research from around the world, she outlines eight core principles of the artisan economy—purpose, creativity, dignity, resistance, community, value, sustainability, and shared prosperity. She also shares a framework, called the Taproot Model of Systems Change, on which to enact these principles by restoring a vision of the economy as a living system. Ultimately, Edgar proposes, the artisan economy is a way to reconnect consumers with makers, foster sustainable growth, and create a more equitable and human-focused global economy. To create true connections across our global economy, we need a dramatic overhaul of what it means to work and what it means to consume.
