Human Resource Management

This book provides practitioners with an overview of human resource management from an evidence-based perspective including practical examples. It is structured to align with the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM) curriculum for HR professional certifications. The book begins by providing an understanding of workforce dynamics covering globalization, risk management, law and regulation, corporate social responsibility, and organizational strategy. From there the remainder of the book goes into the modern complex HR functions through the three-pillar model of human resource management detailing people resources, HR functions, and people-oriented approaches. The book also discusses current trends and the future of human resources, including the use of data and technology. Featuring data-driven insight, best practices and examples, this book is appropriate for professionals, practitioners, and MBA students in human resource management.

An Evidence-Based Guide

An insider's guide to our broken economy and how it fails to serve us.'A fascinating examination of the failures of modern economics, and how these failures are harming us all' Grace Blakeley, author of Vulture Capitalism'Easily one of the most compelling economics communicators of our generation.'Yuan Yang, FT columnist and MP for Earley and WoodleyDid you know that while we think of money as notes issued by the government, the truth is that the overwhelming majority of money today is credit created by private banks?Did you know that the reason housing keeps getting less accessible is because we haven't found a way to separate houses from land in our policies?And did you know that far from globalisation being a mystical force, certain countries and currencies have dominated the way it has played out - to their own advantage?Whilst economics is at the heart of the society we live in, governing so many functions from our taxes to where we live to the price of our shopping, few of us have a strong grasp on the subject. This book is here to help.Why We're Getting Poorer delves into the key topics in economics - money, globalisation, inequality, climate change and growth - showing that what we think we know about these things is wrong, and teaching us what we really need to know. Deciphering the jargon and complexity of economic thinking, with examples ranging from the Simpsons to the German football league to The Inbetweeners, Cahal Moran shows us why our economy set us up to fail, and offers suggestions for how we can make positive changes.Written by an award-winning economist and the YouTuber responsible for 'Unlearning Economics', Why We're Getting Poorer is a thrilling, iconoclastic guide to how the world really works.

This book provides insights not only into issues of criminology but also criminal justice issues that are generally not at the forefront of Caribbean scholarship, for example, remand detention and the Caribbean Court of Justice. This book focusses on intersectionality, justice, and vulnerable populations whereas volume I focusses on crime, crime trends, and criminal justice reform. Using a diverse approach, and tackling topics including food fraud, human trafficking, gender-based and domestic violence, climate change, and agro-terrorism, these books fill an existing lacuna in the context of specific issues plaguing Caribbean criminological and justice landscapes in the region.Wendell C. Wallace is Senior Lecturer in Criminology and Criminal Justice at The&nbsp;University of the West Indies, St. Augustine, Trinidad and Tobago.

This exciting new edition of Strategy and Human Resource Management explores how people strategy shapes organisational survival, performance and competitive advantage. It shows how HR strategy differs across organisations, industries and societies, and why those differences matter, offering a nuanced understanding of HRM in context rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. Written by world-renowned authors, it provides a rigorously analytical, research-led approach that first explains what managers actually do and the reasoning behind their decisions before considering implications for practice. Theory is brought to life through real-world examples, cases and vignettes, making complex ideas accessible and relevant. Alongside core principles of strategic HRM, the book examines the critical features of the environments in which they are applied, delivering a richly grounded, practice-orientated analysis for students and practitioners alike. New to this edition: - Fully updated throughout in terms of citing latest research and application. - New coverage of AI and robotization in the context of HRM an implications for organizational strategy. - New coverage of sustainable HRM. - New coverage of HR analytics. - New coverage of post-pandemic/Covid working and implications for employees and employers. - New and updated case studies. - Strengthening of practical tools and application. - Increased use of figures, table and other illustrations.

Phenomenal World Books

A critical history of the US dollar's dominance in the world economy--and what has kept China's currency from overtaking it. The dollar is the primary currency of the world economy. With China now rivaling the United States on the world stage, a critical question hangs in the balance: will the Chinese renminbi challenge the status of the dollar and, in doing so, deprive America of its "exorbitant privilege"? In GreenbackEmpire, Ho-fung Hung offers a powerful account of why, even as American shares of global production, ownership, and trade continue to decline, its currency has retained the support of governments and investors around the world. For six decades, Hung shows, the dominance of the dollar has rested on the security umbrella that the US offers to the world's wealthiest countries--including oil producers. To these countries, support for the value of the dollar is tantamount to maintaining US protection. While China has become a serious geopolitical and economic rival to the US, the Chinese state's airtight control of its financial system has delayed the free trading of the renminbi, limiting the currency's internationalization. In short, the same strategy that engineered growth in China's economy is restraining its currency's rise in opposition to the dollar. Hung's Greenback Empire is an essential history of the dollar's prowess, indispensable for understanding the future of the global monetary system.

Transnational Crime, Crime Control and Security

Aimed at students, practitioners and security scholars, this open access book presents creative, multi-faceted and critical perspectives on the future of European gendarmerie-type forces, particularly in the era of hybrid security threats. It reviews international cooperation between gendarmerie organisations and raises the question of whether the traditionally styled gendarmerie organisations are up to the rapidly changing security climate, where non-state armed actors tend to be agile and innovative. Gendarmerie-type forces are military-style police organisations which have evolved over time and are generally responsible for police activities at the higher risk end of the spectrum when it comes to closing sudden as well as structural security gaps. Europe faces several security challenges beyond, at and within its borders, ranging from large-scale organised crime, terrorism and irregular migration. This book explores traditional security actors in Europe, in particular gendarmerie organisations in France, Italy, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania and Spain, as well as the (cooperation with) other gendarmerie and law enforcement organisations. It includes co-authored chapters from academics with gendarmerie practitioners. This book argues that within the plural policing arena, gendarmerie organisations occupy a unique position.Monica Den Boer

“Step aside Tom Friedman, Sam Huntington, and Amy Chua. Franklin Foer’s dark and witty tale of the soccer world reveals the meaning of globalization in all its joys and horrors.”—Robert KaganJust in time for the 2026 World Cup in North America—a reissue of the bestselling sports classic, featuring a new preface from the author.With the 2026 World Cup in all three nations of North America, the power and scope of soccer has truly become global. In this remarkably insightful, wide-ranging work, Franklin Foer argues that soccer is much more than a game, or even a way of life. It is a unique window into the crosscurrents of modern globalization, with all of its benefits and pitfalls. Soccer clubs don’t represent geographic areas; they stand for social classes and political ideologies. Unlike baseball or tennis, soccer is freighted with ancient hatreds and history. It’s a sport with real stakes—a catalyst capable of ruining regimes and launching liberation movements.Foer takes us on a surprising tour through the world of soccer, shattering myths and dire predictions. Instead of destroying local cultures, as the left warned, globalization has revived tribalism. Far from the triumph of capitalism that the right anticipated, it has entrenched corruption. From Brazil to Bosnia, Italy to Iraq, How Soccer Explains the World is an eye-opening chronicle of how a beautiful sport and its fanatical followers can illuminate the fault lines of a society, whether it’s terrorism, poverty, anti-Semitism, authoritarianism, or radical Islam—issues that continue to affect all of us. At a time when globalization is under attack and many Americans yearn for retrenchment and retreat from the world, this remarkable book—filled with blazing intelligence, colorful characters, wry humor, and an equal passion for soccer and humanity—continues to make sense of our troubled times.

An Unlikely Theory of Globalization

How Soccer Explains the World

AS FEATURED ON THE REST IS POLITICS 'Required reading' Andrew Marr, New Statesman 'A welcome shot of serious thought' Financial Times 'A superb analysis of a big problem - but with solutions too!' Alastair Campbell In 2024, two billion people went to vote - and populism won big. Donald Trump returned to the White House. Marine Le Pen surged in France. Reform UK became Britain's most successful far-right party in modern history. Across the West, authoritarian populists now govern a quarter of the world's democracies. But is this peak populism - or the populists' tipping point? From the counting halls of inner-city Birmingham to the trading floors of Wall Street, from the Heritage Foundation war room to the algorithmic outrage machines of social media, Liam Byrne exposes the forces propelling the populist surge - and reveals how to stop it. Drawing on original polling of thousands of voters, interviews with leading thinkers, and on-the-ground reporting across Britain, Europe and America, Byrne decodes the populist playbook. He reveals populism's five tribes, showing which voters can still be won back. He traces the millions flowing into Britain's populist media-political complex. He maps the rhetoric populists use to weaponise fear and nostalgia. And he warns: democracies rarely collapse in normal times - they fall after the next crisis, when hope collapses. WHY POPULISTS ARE WINNING sets out a bold plan to rebuild the radical centre of Western politics. It is a field manual for democratic renewal - written for anyone who refuses to let fear win.

And How to Beat Them

Palgrave Studies on Sentencing

This edited collection provides an international collection of essays addressing the most important challenge confronting courts in all jurisdictions, common and civil law: how can we restrict the use of imprisonment to avoid unnecessary human and fiscal costs? Different court systems have devised a range of approaches but few have worked. This book&nbsp;represents no fewer than 12 jurisdictions&nbsp;including both civil and common law countries and includes chapters from legal scholars and philosophers and empirical researchers. This book speaks widely, given the interest in the use of custod, and the pressing need to reduce prison costs.
