Bisexual and Pansexual Identities Exploring and Challenging Invisibility and Invalidation

This book explores the invisibility and invalidation of bisexuality from the past to the present and is unique in extending the discussion to focus on contemporary and emerging identities. Nikki Hayfield draws on research from psychology and the social sciences to offer a detailed and in-depth exploration of the invisibility and invalidation of bisexuality pansexuality and asexuality. The book discusses how early sexologists’ understood gender and sexuality within a binary model and how this provided the underpinnings of bisexual invisibility. The existing research on biphobia and bisexual marginalisation is synthesised to explore how bisexuality has often been invisible or invalidated. Hayfield then evidences clear examples of the invisibility and invalidation of bisexuality pansexuality and asexuality within education employment mainstream mass media and the wider culture. Throughout the book there is consideration of the impact that this invisibility and invalidation has on people’s sense of identity and on their health and wellbeing. It concludes with a discussion of how bisexuality pansexuality and asexuality have become somewhat more visible than in the past and the potential that visibility holds for recognition and representation. This is fascinating reading for students and academics interested in in bisexuality pansexuality and asexual spectrum identities and for those who have a personal interest in bisexuality pansexuality and asexuality. | Bisexual and Pansexual Identities Exploring and Challenging Invisibility and Invalidation

Revolution and Constitutionalism in Britain and the U.S. Burke and Madison and Their Contemporary Legacies

Revolution and Constitutionalism in Britain and the U.S. Burke and Madison and Their Contemporary Legacies

In Revolution and Constitutionalism in Britain and the U. S. : Burke and Madison and Their Contemporary Legacies David A. J. Richards offers an investigative comparison of two central figures in late eighteenth-century constitutionalism Edmund Burke and James Madison at a time when two great constitutional experiments were in play: the Constitution of the Glorious Revolution of 1688 and the U. S. Constitution of 1787. Richards assesses how much as liberal Lockean constitutionalists Burke and Madison shared and yet differed regarding violent revolution offering three pathbreaking and original contributions about Burke’s importance. First the book defends Burke as a central figure in the development and understanding of liberal constitutionalism; second it explores the psychology that led to his liberal voice including Burke’s own long-term loving relationship to another man; and third it shows how Burke’s understanding of the political psychology of the violence of “political religions” is an enduring contribution to understanding fascist threats to political liberalism from the eighteenth-century onwards including the contemporary constitutional crises in the U. S. and U. K. deriving from populist movements. Mixing thorough research with personal experiences this book will be an invaluable resource to scholars of political science and theory constitutional law history political psychology and LGBTQ+ issues. | Revolution and Constitutionalism in Britain and the U.

Small and Medium Enterprises Law and Business Uncertainty and Justice

Small and Medium Enterprises Law and Business Uncertainty and Justice

The law plays an ambiguous role in running business. While legal tools can be used to tame uncertainties for example by concluding contracts to safeguard enforcement of future claims they can also generate uncertainty. These secondary uncertainties like ones stemming from vague rights and obligations may be counterbalanced by using different resources and strategies including acting informally modifying business plans or accepting the losses from unpaid dues. This book discusses how small and medium enterprises use the law abstain from using the law and use alternative pathways to manage business uncertainties. Examining these topics through the lenses of an extensive qualitative and quantitative empirical study on justiciable issues access to justice and legal uncertainty among SMEs in Poland it implements and expands upon the paradigmatic paths to justice methodology which has been successfully used to study conflict resolution access to justice and utilisation of the law by individuals in more than 30 jurisdictions. It argues that the grand promise of modern law - that it is a certainty-providing neutral and democratic device to resolve problems and conflicts - is not fully delivered. It reveals how the conditions of a freshly developed capitalism combined with the rule of law backsliding contribute to universal structural problems with access to justice meaning that accessing justice is a resource-hungry process which incentivises small businesses to settle for their legal problems and engage in informal and alternative strategies. | Small and Medium Enterprises Law and Business Uncertainty and Justice

Theory and Practice in Heritage and Sustainability Between past and future

Theory and Practice in Heritage and Sustainability Between past and future

This book explores cultural sustainability and its relationships to heritage from a wide interdisciplinary perspective. By examining the interactions between people and communities in the places where they live it exemplifies the diverse ways in which a people-centred heritage builds identities and supports individual and collective memories. It encourages a view of heritage as a process that contributes through cultural sustainability to human well-being and socially- and culturally-sensitive policy. With theoretically-informed case studies from leading researchers the book addresses both concepts and practice in a range of places and contexts including landscape townscape museums industrial sites every day heritage ‘ordinary’ places and the local scene and even UNESCO-designated sites. The contributors most of whom like the editors were members of the COST Action ‘Investigating Cultural Sustainability’ demonstrate in a cohesive way how the cultural values that people attach to place are enmeshed with issues of memory identity and aspiration and how they therefore stand at the centre of sustainability discourse and practice. The cases are drawn from many parts of Europe but notably from the Baltic and central and south-eastern Europe regions with distinctive recent histories and cultural approaches and heritage discourses that offer less well-known but transferable insights. They all illustrate the contribution that dealing with the inheritance of the past can make to a full cultural engagement with sustainable development. The book provides an introductory framework to guide readers and a concluding section that draws on the case studies to emphasise their transferability and specificity and to outline the potential contribution of the examples to future research practice and policy in cultural sustainability. This is a unique offering for postgraduate students researchers and professionals interested in heritage management governance and community participation and cultural sustainability. | Theory and Practice in Heritage and Sustainability Between past and future

Campaigns and Elections Players and Processes

Campaigns and Elections Players and Processes

Stephen K. Medvic’s Campaigns and Elections is a comprehensive yet compact core text that addresses two distinct but related aspects of American electoral democracy: the processes that constitute campaigns and elections and the players who are involved. In addition to balanced coverage of process and actors it gives equal billing to both campaigns and elections and covers contests for legislative and executive positions at the national state and local levels including issue-oriented campaigns of note. The book opens by providing students with the conceptual distinctions between what happens in an election and the campaigning that precedes it. Significant attention is devoted to setting up the context for these campaigns and elections by covering the rules of the game in the American electoral system as well as aspects of election administration and the funding of elections. Then the book systematically covers the actors at every level—candidates and their organizations parties interest groups the media and voters—and the macro-level aspects of campaigns such as campaign strategy and determinants of election outcomes. The book concludes with a big-picture assessment of campaign ethics and implications of the permanent campaign. New to the Fourth Edition: • Fully updated through the 2020 elections looking ahead to the 2022 midterms • Covers the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the 2020 election as well as the January 6 2021 insurrection at the US Capitol • Adds new sections in Chapter 3 on election integrity and the assessment of election administration • Reviews recent Supreme Court cases on gerrymandering and faithless electors • Expands coverage of social media as a source of news of the increasingly partisan nature of the media and of the role of media fact-checking in campaigns and elections • Reorganizes the chapters on the various actors so that the chapter on candidates leads directly to the chapter on campaigns • Fully updates the resources listed at the end of each chapter | Campaigns and Elections Players and Processes
