Specific chapters also focus on 'Doing Popular Culture Studies,' with each chapter providing historical and contemporary examples, accessible key case studies, and featuring different focal points. Topics covered within this include popular culture as an industry; what popular culture means for fans and audiences; and how popular culture intersects with issues of identity, diversity, and power. The final chapter considers possibilities for the future of popular culture studies, highlighting its ongoing importance in an environment of accelerating media and cultural change.

This is an ideal starting point for anyone interested in learning more about popular culture studies.

Covering a twenty-five-year period, this book of unpublished keynote speeches calls for a move away from individualistic approaches to therapy and towards socially-oriented and socially-engaged practices. Retaining the directness of the original speeches, Keith Tudor represents his critical ideas on positive mental health, transactional analysis, person-centred psychology, and psychotherapy and politics, arguing for the psychological and social worlds to be brought together to develop therapies that are as much a part of promoting positive mental health as they are ways of responding to distress and dis-ease. The book takes a critical perspective to challenge both therapists and the psychological professions to make themselves and their therapies more accessible and more relevant to the contemporary world. It provides guidance for how clients can engage actively in therapy, while also providing a framework to critique therapy in an informed way.

This wide-ranging and engaging book will be of interest to psychotherapists, mental health practitioners, researchers and students of psychotherapy.

This edited collection offers an exploration and critical reassessment of the sciences in educational research, foregrounding its agential and material qualities rather than treating it as a neutral instrument of knowledge. Addressing the enduring allure of research as expertise and of science as an elixir for enabling the good life, the book examines a distinctive form of activism within modernity and challenges the ahistorical assumptions that often frame the practices of the human sciences.

The two volumes comprise original historical and sociological studies by international scholars who examine the infrastructures of ideas, theories, methods, and technologies through which scientific knowledge is produced. Across a wide range of educational contexts, the authors interrogate how science operates performatively, shaping norms, subjectivities, and modes of governance. Part of a two-volume series, Volume Two, Visual Cultures and Affective Economies in Education gives attention to science as projection that sustains norms of anticipated potentialities that compare different kinds of people; and how these projections travel and settle in different historical spaces.

It will appeal to scholars and researchers across interdisciplinary fields including sociology of education, sociology of knowledge, historical sociology, political philosophy, educational policy, comparative and international education, and transnational studies.

It introduces the discipline of HDFS and challenges students to understand the limitations of common sense and the threat of pseudoscience for those working professionally with children and families.

As societies around the globe undergo rapid change, Benjamin Nelson's theories help explain how and why civilizations evolve.
This book offers a full-length, comprehensive analysis of Benjamin Nelson's ideas and historical studies, exploring his civilization-analytic perspective, its intricate ties to Max Weber's theories, and Nelson's arguments about the major historical phases shaping Western European civilization. Donald A. Nielsen argues that Nelson's work centers on religious and cultural universalism, reconstructing Nelson's thesis that 12th-century Europe experienced an axial shift in consciousness toward more rationalized, universalistic cultural orientations. Rather than focusing on the origins of modernity, Nelson examined revolutionary changes in structures of consciousness and civilizations, including six ongoing "revolutions" he identified. Nielsen unpacks Nelson's view of civilizational crises and demonstrates that his theories are rooted in a vision of human life that values lived experience and expression within changing historical contexts. By highlighting how Nelson's theories illuminate the dynamics of cultural universalism and structural transformations across historical contexts, this book provides readers a conceptual framework for analyzing civilizational change.

Halldorsson's How Digital Screen Use Alienates Human Societies examines recent processes of technological rationalism, which were intensified by the Covid-pandemic, and explores how they alienate human societies in the name of progress. Challenging the prevailing assumptions of such 'progress', the book argues that these processes undermine the essential 'social magic' - the everyday human sociality that builds communities - which results in societal fragmentation, marked by alienation in the form of social isolation, consumption, polarisation, fear, and conflict.

The paradox of how increased connectivity through digital networks, can lead to lack of human connection is the critical question this book pursues. It explores how intense processes of technological rationalisation has undermined human sociality and alienated the world by replacing human-to-human relationships with human-to-machine interactions. The author argues that communication with/through screen machines is incapable of replacing vital social relationships that breed 'social magic' and build communities. This disconnection, which is driven by technological capitalism, undermines human sociality and causes alienation. Ultimately, the book asserts that humanity needs more social magic, fostered through human-to-human relationships - and offers critical sociological analysis and potential remedies.

This book is a critical academic treatise. It will be of interest to social science scholars and students as well as a broader audience seeking to resist the relentless makeover of human societies, in the name of technological rationalisation, and make the world more humane, meaningful, and magical.

Early Chinese Cinema and Two-Way World Flows explores how the term 'transnational' became a condition-a site of translations, transactions, and transitions in Chinese cinema. Drawing on a broad range of previously untapped sources by and about female directors, writers, actresses, and moviegoers, including personal recollections from the family of female director Marion Evelyn Hong, this book offers new perspectives on the dynamic multidirectional flow of films, culture, and communities in the early twentieth century at a time of intense global political upheaval. At its heart are 'transnational' films and the women, audiences, and immigrants who positioned themselves across borders.

This pioneering scholarship shows how cinema emerges as an affective medium and a tool of negotiation, enabling women to navigate political and immigrant experiences. It also examines how film production and circulation became strategic responses to racial misrepresentation, with diasporic Chinese communities playing a central role in these early economic and cultural exchanges between China and the United States.

By highlighting the role of film in diasporic culture and economic transactions, this book opens new frontiers for scholars of feminist, diasporic, and global film studies, revealing the layered complexities of Chinese and Chinese American diasporic film cultures. It was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Chinese Cinemas.

In a nation where more than 3.5 million births occur each year, the experience of giving birth reveals who is valued, who is heard, and who is left behind.

The Perfect Birth Myth offers a sweeping, deeply human exploration of childbirth in the United States, the country with the most highly resourced and costliest maternal healthcare in the world, yet the highest rate of maternal mortality among developed countries. Drawing on decades of experience in maternal health, midwifery, and journalism, Avital Norman Nathman and Deborah Wage weave historical analysis, policy insight, personal narratives, and data from approximately 3,000 people who've given birth to examine the forces shaping American birth culture. From the pursuit of the "perfect birth" and the commercialization of care to the racial and psychological inequities embedded in the system, they reveal how medicalization, racism, and profit-driven policies have eroded autonomy, safety, and dignity in childbirth.

Both expose and call to action, The Perfect Birth Myth reframes birth as an act of justice, community, and self-determination. Readers will emerge with an understanding that instead of pushing for perfection, we should be pushing for equity, respect, and shared humanity.

This is the first book to critically examine England football fans' attitudes towards Muslims and Islam through the lens of a sports mega-event, drawing on fan experiences at the 2022 FIFA Men's World Cup, the first staged in an Islamic society.

Drawing on pre-event interviews, audio-visual diaries, field observations, and post-event reflections with England fans, the book examines whether short-term sporting events can produce transformational shifts in fans' attitudes towards Muslims and Islam, or whether they reinforce existing prejudices despite unprecedented opportunities for intergroup contact. To do so, it develops a novel theoretical framework by integrating Gordon Allport's contact theory with Edward Said's Orientalism, offering a unique lens for understanding intergroup encounters in a sporting context. Arriving at a critical juncture between the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and the 2034 World Cup in Saudi Arabia, as Arabian Peninsula states will likely assume a greater role in global sport, the book makes an important and timely contribution to our understanding of football fandom, anti-Muslim prejudice, and the potential for sport to address wider social and cultural issues.

This book is fascinating reading for researchers and postgraduate students in the sociology of sport, social psychology, postcolonial studies, and tourism and events, and will appeal to anybody with a broader interest in football fandom, intergroup relations, Orientalism, or the cultural politics of sports mega-events.

With an international overview of how local visual news is made, sourced, edited, and published across geographical areas, this book explores how audiences respond to the visual news that is locally available.

In order to listen to audiences, the book uses a rich mix of methods including photo-ranking exercises, digital diary studies, photo voice studies, and interviews with journalists and more than 100 community members. The book adopts the focus on visual news as audience behaviours and expectations are shifting as journalists struggle to maintain trust and loyalty. Additionally, it responds to the importance of visuals in attracting attention, helping people navigate information landscapes, and providing more emotional connections with the people and places represented in journalistic storytelling. By paying attention to audience feedback and seeing communities through their eyes, this book offers a path for bringing journalists and audiences closer together and to improving journalistic quality as a result.

Everyday Visual News serves as a valuable reference and starting point for advanced students and researchers of local and visual journalism and news audiences.

This book offers a reappraisal of the central themes and problems animating the work of Vilfredo Pareto, reconsidering their place within contemporary social and political inquiry.

Emphasising the breadth and complexity of his thought, the book adopts a cross-cutting approach that brings its different dimensions into dialogue. Rather than offering a conventional introduction, it revisits Pareto through a critical engagement with established interpretations and contemporary debates. Moving beyond both celebratory and dismissive readings, it shows how Pareto's reflections continue to illuminate central tensions and contradictions of modern political life, demonstrating their continuing relevance to contemporary social and political sciences.

By reopening exegetical questions, sketching possible directions for future research, and moving across disciplinary boundaries, Reintroducing Vilfredo Pareto will appeal to scholars and students of sociology, political sociology, political theory, and the history of political thought.

The Critique of Pure Information offers a critical rethinking of disinformation, misinformation, and "post-truth" politics by challenging the assumption that political deception is best understood as a problem of false or impure information.

This book argues that the dominant vocabulary of "information disorder" has helped install an infocentric model of communication, one that reduces deceptive public communication to faulty content, corrupted circulation, or deficient belief. Combining conceptual history, communication theory, systematic review, and close rhetorical analysis, the book shows how deception and confusion work through rhetoric, style, genre, image-text composition, platformed circulation, affect, and public uptake. Through an extended case study of a long-circulating Trump quotation meme, it demonstrates why democratic communication cannot be repaired by fact-checking, media literacy, platform governance, or AI detection alone.

This fascinating and insightful study will be of great interest to students and scholars of media and communication, journalism, media ethics, political science, and sociology.

This book offers an ethnomusicological case study of a Nigerian congregation in Ireland and engages with some of the most salient issues emerging in twenty-first century migrant Christianity. Situated at the intersection between salvation, music, and embodiment, the study highlights the inextricable connection between expressive cultural forms, local theologies, and religious efficacy. Engaging with accounts of the nature of salvation in African theological discourse, the book explores how salvation is materialised in Christ Apostolic Church, Dublin, through talking drum performance, dance, music and movement in prayer and testimonies, and the language of congregational song. Even while salvific performance represents a continuation of practices brought from Nigeria, areas of tension are emerging in the context of migration. Faced with significant environmental, economic, and social changes, church members are beginning to question some of their beliefs and to adapt their approaches. This book engages not only the efficacious aspects of salvific performance, but also the musical outworking of salvific tensions and contradictions against a backdrop of social and religious change. It will be of interest to scholars of ethnomusicology, anthropology of religion, African religions, African Pentecostalism, theology, liturgical studies, and migration studies.

Against a back-drop of complex societal challenges and a time of transition, chapters outline five rules of action for social innovation and explore how they can be applied to central areas of society, including education, health, business, and climate. Bringing together examples of social innovation such as non-profit housing and public education, the book illustrates how these action-oriented maxims are designed to assist the transition to more sustainable and democratic systems. Ultimately, the authors present a global roadmap for mobilising people to create a more resilient and participatory future.

The Power of Collective Action is a valuable resource for researchers and students of business and management, economics and finance, and social entrepreneurship. Practitioners and policymakers interested in innovation policy and developmental studies will also benefit from its practical recommendations.

This edited collection explores strategies of critique for responding to what many commentators now refer to as our current poly-crises.

Today, economic, political, cultural, social, environmental and personal crises increasingly collapse together into situations of toxic shock which intensify repression and process lives into toxic waste. Drawing on the expansive understanding of mediation in the Canadian communication tradition deriving from Harold A. Innis and Marshall McLuhan and on eco-criticism of media environments, Toxic Media Ecologies foregrounds the objective subjectiveness of crises and considers how we as subjects are connected to each other through crises. Critical essays presented in Part One interrogate topics ranging from money and feminist science fiction to the online Alt-Right and racism. Parts Two and Three present theoretical reflections on research-creation engagements with pedagogies, ecology and poetry, as well as design, care-work, performance art and pedagogical games. Overall, this volume elaborates on the thesis that ecological crises are fundamentally historical, political and cultural and presents a novel juxtaposition and comparison between cultural studies and research-creation critical approaches.

Innovative and transdisciplinary in its approach, Toxic Media Ecologies will be of great interest to students and scholars of environmental communication and media, environmental humanities, environmental justice, political ecology and media studies.

This volume traces the evolution of the pictorial representation - and, more often than not, the visual effacement - of the instant of death in Europe between the Renaissance and the middle of the seventeenth century.

Chapters show how artistic choices tackling the visual depiction of "death events" (i.e. death taking place, as opposed to the long processes of agony on the one hand and mourning on the other) are manifestations of theoretical, philosophical, and anthropological issues as crucial to early modern culture as they are today. The book discusses the very concept of an instant and its aporias; the more specific question (both philosophical and biological) of death, its definitions and its temporality; and the vast art-theoretical issues around painting and its fraught relation with time, liveliness, and the inanimate. Among the artists discussed are Caravaggio, Rubens, Poussin, Ribera, Artemisia Gentileschi, Michelangelo, Rosso Fiorentino, and Piero della Francesca.

The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, Renaissance and Baroque studies, and death studies.

This book brings together research and critical perspectives from scholars across Sub-Saharan Africa and its diaspora to advance African-centred approaches to communication for development and social change. It challenges Western-dominated frameworks by foregrounding indigenous knowledge systems and positioning communication as a space for decolonial transformation, social justice, and inclusive development.

The volume develops theoretical and methodological insights that centre African epistemologies within global debates, interrogating entrenched power structures while promoting cultural diversity and social cohesion. Through interdisciplinary approaches, it draws on decolonial and postcolonial frameworks to examine how African knowledge informs communication practices across education, health, digital media, intercultural engagement, and community contexts. The volume explores pedagogical practices, health communication strategies, and media dynamics through a decolonial lens. The book offers practical and conceptual tools for fostering resistance, collective action, and socially grounded transformation, while encouraging critical reflection on dominant knowledge systems.

This book is intended for scholars, researchers, students, and practitioners in communication, development studies, higher education, and the social sciences who are interested in decoloniality, African knowledge systems, and socially just approaches to communication.

Expert contributing authors cover a wide range of corrupt practices committed by global actors involved in sporting practices, events, management and governance. Chapters address off-the-field exploitation such as fraudulent betting, embezzlement, vote buying and human trafficking as examples of growing ethical concerns within the sporting community. The Handbook also explores on-field examples, including international case studies of corruption in road cycling, Italian football and doping in Russian sport. They outline prevention strategies and law enforcement approaches to improve governance and support whistleblowers and disciplinary actions.

This Handbook is a vital resource for scholars and students of sport disciplines, particularly those researching economics, sociology, management and sports law. Its applied approach will also prove beneficial to governing bodies, managers and sport practitioners.

This book offers valuable insights into the evolving landscape of human communication shaped by AI and persuasive technologies, and their use in facilitating and enhancing communication processes.

Highlighting the central role of communication in utilizing persuasive technologies to analyze human behaviors, interpersonal communication, and cognitive processes, the book sheds light on the profound impact of AI communication on individuals and their society. First critically presenting and examining the foundational theories and principles that form the bedrock of persuasive technology, the book then moves to explore AI equality and other ethical considerations - including privacy concerns, data security, manipulation, and trustworthiness in AI systems - as well as the broader societal impacts of AI communication in areas such as health care, politics, marketing, and social media, shedding light on its implications for our digital society.

This book will be an interdisciplinary resource for researchers and students in communication studies, information sciences and business, specifically those working on human-computer interaction, social media communication, social media for social change, and digital media and society.

Examining contemporary ideas like collective leadership, implicit leadership theories and the active role of followers, contributors establish models that go beyond legal compliance to foster genuine belonging. Developing a more globally representative understanding of the discipline, chapters feature perspectives underrepresented in traditional research including Indigenous and culturally diverse approaches from Africa, Asia and Eastern Europe. The Handbook emphasizes the role of followership, exploring its development and influence within sport organisations and leadership dynamics. It also addresses key challenges shaping modern sport, such as diversity, sustainability, crisis situations and the role of emerging technologies.

The Handbook of Sport Leadership is a valuable resource for business scholars and students, especially those specializing in sports management. Combining theoretical insights with practical application, the Handbook is also a useful guide for sports leaders and business operators seeking to promote inclusive, ethical and adaptable sport leadership in practice.

The Routledge Handbook of Making: Craft-based Research Methods and Pedagogy is a book that celebrates the embodied process of craft methods. It uniquely centralises crafting, the practice of doing and making, as significant to the research project.

The handbook is a gathering together of several wayfaring crafts based scholars across the globe into one 'knot'. It is a celebration of craft from Indigenous, Asian, European, North American, South American, Australia and New Zealand contexts. These scholars provide a rigorous and passionate exploration of the diverse craft-based methods, pedagogies, and range of theoretical lenses they engage with in their research. The chapters demonstrate transdisciplinary approaches to research and pedagogy through crossing disciplinary boundaries and combining academic disciplines and rich theoretical conversations with practical, non(traditional)-academic knowledge to respond to complex real-world problems. Because this book is about making, the authors provide powerful, engaging and useful images as visual text. There are seven sections in the handbook, although with such creative and theoretical work there is also much crossover. The first section is a series of introduction chapters to key thinking about craft histories, craft pedagogies, craft as embodied practiced and a way to connect, crafting as becoming otherwise and craft as bodily thinking. Section two is a focus on Crafting with ancestors, Section three Crafting as decolonial activism, Section four Crafting as pedagogy, Section five Crafting professional identity, Section six Crafting as feminist practice and Section seven Crafting as healing. The Handbook provides a significant marker, a 'stake in the ground', to establish a definitive position for craft as method in scholarly practice and an invitation for other craft wayfarers to gather.

The book is intended for scholars and researchers across disciplines engaged in complex societal issues, including Indigenous, qualitative, decolonial, narrative, postqualitative, critical, practitioner and feminist researchers; for students at all levels of study (undergraduate, Masters, postgraduate); and for more established scholars in academia and other sectors. In is an invite to make.
