How to Lose the Lottery

This book explores how COVID-19 represents an inflection point for re-thinking and re-making democracy across the English-speaking world in an age where states are facing a future of overlapping crises. Years after the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic started to unfold, have we yet learned the deep lessons essential to maintaining and improving democracy to meet crisis challenges? Produced with the benefit of distance from the most acute period of the pandemic, the book contextualises the COVID-19 crisis as revealing pre-existing vulnerabilities and intensifying challenges of governance, inclusion, and distrust, while also spurring democratic innovation and shifting the parameters for reform. Six national case studies - Australia, Ireland, Canada, Aotearoa New Zealand, UK and USA - reveal the heterogeneity of the Anglosphere as an imagined democratic space. Viewed in the round, pandemic responses ranged from the chaotic to the internationally lauded, although even the latter have featured acute deficiencies in democratic practice, which underscores the need to gather the lessons learned. Yet, in all states, the public and political temptation to simply move on, in an act of communal forgetting and collective return to "normalcy," presents a real risk of failing to prepare for more democratic future crisis responses. This collection takes the long view, approaching its subject from multiple perspectives that examine the heterogeneity of the Anglosphere as an imagined democratic space. Taking a cross-disciplinary approach and bringing together both leading and emerging experts on democracy, constitutionalism, and the rule of law, this book powerfully combines the insights of retrospective analysis with future-focused contemplation of where our democracies are heading.

This open access book presents a new approach to growth amid international efforts toward sustainable development Quality growth considers inclusiveness, resilience to external shocks (natural disasters, infectious diseases, financial crises etc.) and sustainability in terms of climate and environmental change as integral parts of growth, thereby maximizing people’s wellbeing. This approach aims to complement and advance the SDGs before moving beyond them to address broader challenges. This book seeks to elucidate the concept of quality growth from the perspective of economic theory and is primarily intended as an academic resource for practitioners, researchers and students interested in development. The conceptual approach part of the book covered in Chapters 1 to 9 provides a comprehensive review of theoretical background that underpin this approach and a proposal on how quality growth could be measured. The country case study part of the book, Chapters 10 to 14, considers how growth, inclusiveness, sustainability, and resilience have evolved in practice, with an in-depth analysis of case studies from five countries. This book is to discuss the interrelationships among growth, inclusiveness, sustainability, and resilience in an integrated manner, a feature rarely found in other works. The proposed measures for quality growth also add value to the international debates over indicators that extend “beyond GDP.”

Accountability for Human Rights Violations

Master's Thesis from the year 2025 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Recruiting, grade: 1,2, University of Applied Sciences Dortmund, language: English, abstract: This master's thesis explores the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in modern recruitment processes with a particular focus on applicants' trust. As digitalization and AI increasingly transform the world of work, organizations are adopting AI-supported recruiting tools to enhance efficiency, standardization, and data-driven decision-making. At the same time, the use of AI in personnel selection raises important questions regarding transparency, fairness, and acceptance from the applicants' perspective.

The objective of this thesis is to examine how applicants perceive AI-assisted recruitment processes and which aspects are relevant for the development of trust in this context. To address this research objective, a qualitative research design was chosen. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants who had either experienced AI-supported recruitment processes or reflected on their expectations toward such processes.

The empirical data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis following Kuckartz' approach. This method allows for a systematic examination of subjective perceptions, attitudes, and evaluations, while combining theory-driven and data-driven coding. The analysis focuses on applicants' experiences with different forms of AI usage in recruitment, their expectations toward human and technological decision-making, and their assessment of AI-supported processes within the broader candidate journey.

By linking theoretical concepts of trust in technology with empirical insights from applicants, this thesis contributes to the growing body of literature on AI in recruiting. In addition, it provides a structured foundation for further academic research and offers valuable insights for organizations seeking to better understand applicant perspectives on AI-supported recruitment processes.

The smart city is not merely a set of digital infrastructures, but a complex ecosystem in which technological networks, human capital, and urban communities intertwine. This volume explores the smart city as a relational space, a place where innovation, creativity, and resilience redefine urban development.Through a critical analysis of international models and European policies, the book highlights the opportunities and challenges associated with big data, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things, while questioning the boundaries between efficiency, inclusion, and citizenship rights. The text also draws on theoretical perspectives that capture the enduring appeal of the city as a laboratory of creativity, coexistence, and imagination. What emerges is a new paradigm of a generative and resilient smart city: one that can attract talent and diversity, transform fragilities into resources, and build new forms of environmental sustainability and social cohesion. The book combines solid theoretical and critical foundations with practical methodologies and real-world case studies that support planners in designing smart cities. Readers will gain an understanding of the key features of smart cities, the evolution of related concepts and design methodologies, as well as the tools required to define new types of services and functions.Offering a European and humanistic perspective on the urban future, the book is intended for a diverse readership including scholars, public administrators, planners, and citizens interested in understanding the challenges and opportunities of the city to come.
