The Good Society

Palgrave Studies in Prisons and Penology

This book examines the role of the prison in the commissioning and delivery of theatre practice. It draws attention to discourses of publicly acceptable arts and other mechanisms of ‘soft power’ which shape access to prison theatre. Each chapter utilises engaging storytelling methods based on the authors own experience as a prison theatre practitioner to illustrate theory. The book explores understandings of the value of arts in prison and discuss how, in a neoliberal society, people in prison can be conceptualised as ‘deserving’ or ‘undeserving’ of these practices. It examines the role of the arts organisation in designing and delivering commissionable arts practice and in caring for both practitioners and participants. It also discusses the role of the university and the facilitator in delivering work that balances the often-conflicting agendas of the prison, the arts organisation and the participants alongside their own aims within a context of precarious employment. Finally, it examines the experience of participating in prison theatre, exploring incidents of care, interdependency and collective joy within the prison and assessing how, through the delivery of short-term and insecurely funded arts projects, prison theatre can produce experiences of both hope and harm.

Palgrave Studies in Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Indigenization in Business

This volume provides a comprehensive exploration of the barriers and facilitators women encounter on their leadership paths, enriching the literature on gender and leadership dynamics. More specifically, it uncovers several previously underexplored areas of women’s identity development as leaders, such as intersectionality, examining how factors such as race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic background intersect with gender to shape unique leadership experiences.The chapters also explore socio-cultural variations in becoming a leader, analyze the impact of organizational norms and expectations on leadership influencing women’s identity as leaders, and study how their identities evolve through different career stages. By examining these aspects, this work offers new insights into the complex and multifaceted nature of women's identity development as leaders across diverse contexts.By highlighting women’s leadership and their identity development, this book uniquely positions itself to help scholars and scholar-practitioners in HRD, leadership, and gender studies gain an in-depth understanding of the current and future challenges women face in becoming leaders and the support mechanisms and processes shaping their leadership identity development.Yoshie Tomozumi Nakamura is Associate Professor in Human and OrganizationalLearning (HOL) at the George Washington University, USA.

Thoughtful advice on how to leave academia gracefully and build your best life in retirement Retirement is one of the most challenging transitions in an academic's career, and it's natural to feel overwhelmed by the changes that lie ahead. This how-to guide explains how to structure your last few years of employment so that you retire well and feel good about it. Drawing on engaging personal stories from across academia, it shares concrete tips for letting go of one key phase of life and embracing the opportunity to reinvent yourself in the next. On Retiring makes the case that you have the ultimate say in charting your path through retirement, aging, and whatever comes next after academia--and provides the guidance you need to do so. Susan Shaw describes the lessons she learned from her own retirement experience and those of her colleagues, highlighting what worked and what didn't while paying special attention to the things that make the academic workplace unique. She outlines the four-year retirement plan she developed for herself and suggest some steps colleges and universities can take to honor the service of faculty members and help them to stay connected after retirement. Along the way, Shaw examines some of the downsides of aging in the academy and discusses relevant differences in academic experiences, covering topics such as gender, race, and sexuality. Focusing on so much more than just financial planning, On Retiring empowers you with social, psychological, and philosophical tools to leave the academy on your own terms and thrive in retirement.

A Guide to Preparing for Life After Academia

On Retiring

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.

Eight Principles to Craft a More Conscious, Collaborative, and Connected Future

Artisan Economics

The Second Republic is a comprehensive institutional blueprint for India's transition into a developed economy (Viksit Bharat) by 2047. In this book, Ghani, a former World Bank economist and a prominent voice in Indian developmental economics, moves beyond traditional policy debates to focus on the State capacity engine, with his most compelling diagnostic being the two-engine trap. Since the 1991 reforms, India has developed a high-performance private sector engine; however, this is tethered to an obsolete state engine, characterized by nineteenth-century colonial structures and twentieth-century socialist bureaucracy. To address this, India not only needs new laws but a 'Second Republic', a fundamental re-architecting of the state's core institutions to match the dynamism of its people. 

The book introduces the 4F architecture--functions, finances, functionaries, and foundations--as the integrated mechanism for national renewal, analysing why previous reforms have often stalled. With themes including unlocking the gender dividend (Shakti Superpower), building a modern justice platform, and navigating the geoeconomic frontier of artificial intelligence and climate change, it focuses on the 'plumbing' of the nation: the courts, civil services, and digital systems. A manifesto for 2047, The Second Republic is a timely intervention, shifting the goalposts from 'growth at any cost' to 'growth through institutional excellence', making it an essential read for those trying to understand why India's path to $30 trillion requires more than just capital.

A Charter to Remake the Indian State and Unleash a Nation's Potential

The Second Republic

Wir leben nicht allein. Wir sind umgeben von Menschen, die wir kennen und die eine Rolle in unserem Leben spielen. Und dann gibt es noch die Zeitgenossen, mit denen wir besondere Erfahrungen teilen: den Fall der Mauer, die Pandemie. Wir kennen sie gar nicht alle persönlich, und doch vermitteln sie uns das elementare Gefühl, in einer bestimmten Gegenwart geborgen zu sein. Von ihnen handelt Heinz Budes Buch, das die unterschiedlichen Erfahrungen der Zeitgenossenschaft von unserem Leben in einer aktuellen Gegenwart bis zur Präsenz der Menschheit auf der Erde überhaupt entfaltet: eine Mediation, die ans Innere unserer Erfahrungen rührt und ein Gefühl der Gemeinsamkeit ins Bewusstsein rückt, das unausgesprochen gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalt sichert.

Across the Aisle

This balanced book illuminates Republican and Democratic responses and attitudes toward crime, police work, sentencing, incarceration, and rehabilitation in the USA. A broad array of law enforcement and criminal justice issues are examined, including mass incarceration, sentencing disparities, anti-drug efforts, marijuana legalization, death penalty, mandatory minimums, civil asset forfeiture, prison privatization, rape and other crimes in prison settings, women in prison, support for therapeutic/educational programs, sentencing for juvenile offenders, harsher penalties for hate crimes, and voting rights for ex-felons. The focus is on specific and timely topics in criminal justice that are most susceptible to legislative policies. Readers will benefit by developing an appreciation for how politics impacts the criminal justice system, and how the parties have developed laws that impact their lives, dictate acceptable behavior, and legislate appropriate responses for violators. The emphasis of the series is contemporary, but it includes historical perspective to provide a sense of how each party's positions and actions have evolved over time.

Today's Crime and Punishment Issues

This book provides a novel judicial framework for receiving and considering religious and cultural claims in shaping human rights in constitutional secular democracies. It does this through an extended case study of the Indian constitutional jurisprudence. Abortion and surrogacy, LGBTQ + rights, sex work and euthanasia are arguably the most controversial human rights issues of our time. They all invite passionate religious and cultural debate but are not themselves religious or cultural rights issues. Instead, they pose a fundamental constitutional question: How far can religion and culture go in shaping general human rights in secular constitutional democracies? Moving beyond the logic of individual rights, this book provides an integrated and holistic approach to answering this classic question of constitutional law. To do this, it proposes an innovative empirically backed normative-theoretical framework which synthesises insights from cultural psychoanalysis, feminist legal scholarship, socio-legal method, constitutional law, evidence law, and political theory. It looks at a unique constellation of cases belonging to eight different human rights themes covering the period since India's independence in 1947 and systematically analyses the religious and cultural claims made in those cases. It finds that in India, a more holistic approach to answering our classic constitutional puzzle requires a simultaneous consideration of three different theories: A theory of constitutional interpretation which formulates restrictions on a judge considering religious and cultural claims in fundamental rights cases; A theory of judicial notice which determines when such claims can be admitted without proof; A theory of secularism and public reason which argues that the claims must be given weight in the final decision only if they match defensible conceptions of constitutional values. The book develops these theories and applies them to the Indian cases, providing an innovative approach to an age-old question.
