Making effective public policies is a difficult task, but considering policymaking as a problem of design analogous to architecture or engineering can assist in that process. This book outlines three vital components of policy design: understanding the causes behind the problem being addressed; identifying means of intervention, including selection and implementation of policy instruments; and evaluation and development of good policy understanding. 2015 224 pp Hardback 978 1 78195 576 5 £70.00 2015 Paperback 978 1 78195 577 2 £15.95

‘Why does science thrive? Why do economies grow? Why, in an age of globalization, does nationalism still have a powerful grip on populations worldwide? Liah Greenfeld’s Advanced Introduction to Nationalism offers a dazzling account of our age: to wit, that a startling range of phenomena have their roots in the adoption of nationalism as the basis of modern social order. A must for sociologists, political scientists, and anyone who wants to understand the passions of modern times.’

Organised crime has become a major problem globally. Its negative impact on economies, societies, politics, human rights and security is profound, with examples of fraud, moneylaundering, drug, arms and human trafficking, and collusion with law enforcement, to name just a few. Yet specialists disagree not only on the scale and nature of organised crime, but even on its definition. This Advanced Introduction to Organised Crime explores these disagreements, examines the nature and causes of contemporary organised crime, and offers constructive suggestions on how to counter it.

Insights from When Things Go Wrong Edited by Keith Townsend, Griffith University, Australia and Mark N.K. Saunders, University of Birmingham, UK ‘Stories of the conception, undertaking and writing of research projects can be as valuable as the books, theses and papers themselves. But we tend to suppress or sideline these stories, especially when projects deviate from planned, expected or approved paths. This richly-detailed and entertaining book provides much-needed openness about the agonies of real-world research, such as failure to gain access to research sites, data being lost, unworkable ethical governance frameworks, breakdowns in professional relationships, inabilities to find the words, and those “what the hell just happened?” moments that can ambush even the most seasoned field researcher. This book is an indispensable guide to the twists and turns of the research journey, from the initial ideas scrawled on the back of a beer mat to the publishing of a major academic work.’ – Leo McCann, University of Manchester, UK 2018 224 pp Hardback 978 1 78643 575 0 £80.00 eBook • Elgaronline

Publish or Perish Perceived Benefits versus Unintended Consequences Imad A. Moosa, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, Australia ‘“Publish or perish” is the most significant of all the pressures on young academics. It underpins success with research grants, outreach, impact, prize-winning, promotion and job-security. It distorts incentives by prioritising some research outputs, such as “four-star” papers, over others, such as monographs. Here at last is a book that explains how this oppressive system developed, what sustains it, and where it is likely to lead. It is an indispensable survivor’s guide to modern academia.’ – Mark Casson, University of Reading, UK Imad Moosa’s thought-provoking book explores the contemporary doctrine that plagues the academic sphere: the principle of publish or perish. This book identifies the pressures placed upon academics to either publish their work regularly, or suffer the consequences, including lack of promotion, or even redundancy.

Handbook of Welfare in China

The Social Legitimacy of Targeted Welfare

Edited by Beatriz Carrillo, University of Sydney, Australia and Xi’an JiaotongLiverpool University, China, Johanna Hood, Roskilde University, Denmark and Paul Kadetz, Drew University, US and University College London, UK

Attitudes to Welfare Deservingness

‘This is a needed book, bracing in its diversity and scope. As a collection of authoritative studies of welfare in China, it is a handbook in the best sense of the word: China researchers, and others concerned with global health and social inequality, will want to keep it ready to hand, to consult as a reservoir of up-to-date facts, carefully analysed. All of these scholars challenge the liberal term “welfare” through the experience of Chinese socialism, even as they make the category useful for comparative and critical research.’ – Judith Farquhar, University of Chicago, US This Handbook is a timely compilation dedicated to exploring a rare diversity of perspectives and content on the development, successes, reforms and challenges within China’s contemporary welfare system.

Edited by Wim van Oorschot, University of Leuven, Belgium, Femke Roosma, Tilburg University, the Netherlands, Bart Meuleman, University of Leuven, Belgium and Tim Reeskens, Tilburg University, the Netherlands ‘Deservingness considerations are central to the moral economy of welfare state arrangements. This book, written by a distinguished group of authors, offers a comprehensive, inspiring and highly innovative account of the logic and the drivers of deservingness attitudes. The authors succeed in putting the question “Who should get what, and why” in perspective and show the pivotal role of deservingness opinion therein. For sure, the book will become a key reference in the wider field of comparative welfare state research.’ – Steffen Mau, Humboldt University of Berlin, Germany 2017 384 pp Hardback 978 1 78536 720 5 £105.00 eBook • Elgaronline

The Politics and Policy of Wellbeing Understanding the Rise and Significance of a New Agenda Ian Bache, University of Sheffield and Louise Reardon, University of Birmingham, UK ‘I have never seen a book like this. The authors seem to me to be ahead of their time: they are the first to try to explain the gradual rise and rise of ideas about “wellbeing” in modern society. At the time of writing, nobody knows where this intellectual current will end, but it will probably be several oceans away. The book should be read by economists, psychologists, political scientists, historians and policymakers. It is a prescient and wickedly interesting read.’ – Andrew Oswald, University of Warwick, UK

Handbook on Global Social Justice

Handbook of Research on Economic and Social Well-being

Edited by Gary Craig, University of Hull and University of York, UK ‘This wide-ranging Handbook demonstrates how the concept of social justice provides a valuable lens for the analysis of diverse contemporary policy and political issues. Drawing on a number of disciplines and theoretical perspectives, it puts theory to the service of policy and practice.’ – Professor the Baroness Ruth Lister of Burtersett, Loughborough University, UK In the 50 years since Rawls’ seminal work A Theory of Justice, the concept has been constantly debated, with those on the political right and left advocating very different understandings. This unique global collection, written by an exceptional group of international experts, offers a wideranging analysis that challenges claims that the market can provide social justice for all.

Edited by Conchita D’Ambrosio, Université du Luxembourg ‘This Handbook updates and modernizes decades of scholarship on macro-level markers of progress and micro-level measures of well-being. Its main contribution is its insistence on integrating non-traditional frameworks into conventional approaches to defining, measuring, and tracking socio-economic outcomes at multiple levels. This sophisticated collection spans a remarkable array of outcomes, dimensions, and indicators, including poverty, deprivation, development, exclusion, polarization, segregation, diversity, vulnerability, insecurity, and satisfaction. D’Ambrosio’s ambitious decision to pair theoretical and empirical analyses of each topic pays off beautifully.’ – Janet C. Gornick, Graduate Center, City University of New York, US

Contracting Human Rights

Empowering Young People in Disempowering Times

Crisis, Accountability, and Opportunity Edited by Alison Brysk and Michael Stohl, University of California, Santa Barbara, US

Fighting Inequality Through Capability Oriented Policy

‘Brysk and Stohl bring together a diverse set of voices and perspectives in questioning long-held assumptions about the progressive expansion of international human rights norms and enforcement mechanisms. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the long-term impact of the so-called war on terror on international human rights and anyone concerned with the future of human rights.’ – Michael Goodhart, University of Pittsburgh, US The securitization that accompanied many national responses after 11 September 2001, along with the shortfalls of neoliberalism, created waves of opposition to the growth of the human rights regime. By chronicling the continuing contest over the reach, range, and regime of rights, Contracting Human Rights analyses the way forward in an era of many challenges.

Approaching Equality What Can Be Done About Wealth Inequality? Roger A. McCain, Drexel University, US Drawing on some recent research (especially that of Piketty and his associates) and on older ideas (particularly from Sir Arthur Lewis), Roger McCain proposes policies that, together, would aim to reverse the observed tendency towards the concentration of wealth in market economies, thus “approach equality.” The shortcomings and dangers of rising wealth inequality are discussed, both from the point of view of increasing instability and of equalitarian values. 2017 232 pp Hardback 978 1 78643 143 1 £75.00 eBook • Elgaronline New Directions in Modern Economics series

Social Inequality Across the Generations The Role of Compensation and Multiplication in Resource Accumulation Edited by Jani Erola and Elina Kilpi-Jakonen, University of Turku, Finland Social Inequality Across the Generations provides an innovative perspective on social stratification studies by advancing the theoretical and empirical case for the influence of resource compensation. It examines whether resource compensation is a successful mechanism for social mobility, contrasting it against competing types of resource accumulation such as multiplication. This book is the first to cover extensively the role of compensation in intergenerational attainment – a new and rapidly spreading concept in stratification research.

Simon Birnbaum, Stockholm University and Institute for Futures Studies, Stockholm, Tommy Ferrarini, Kenneth Nelson, Stockholm University and Joakim Palme, Uppsala University, Sweden ‘Adopting a life course perspective, this book is the first ever to systematically analyse the degree of generational balance in nations’ social policies. This is a fundamental issue, not only from a social justice perspective, but also for the political legitimacy and long-term sustainability of a welfare state. The Generational Welfare Contract is arguably the single most important welfare state study in our times. And it is one of those rare groundbreaking contributions that is destined to (re-)define social policy research for many years to come.’ – Gøsta Esping-Andersen, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Spain 2017 192 pp Hardback 978 1 78347 102 7 £70.00 eBook • Open access on Elgaronline

Household Debt and Economic Crises Heikki Hiilamo, University of Helsinki, Finland The recent global recession, preceded by easy access to credit, led to a household debt epidemic. This book examines the causes, consequences and potential public policies related to debt from a social policy perspective, in which over-indebtedness is understood as a social risk. Heikki Hiilamo presents a unique conceptual and theoretical approach to the topic – one of the most pressing social issues of the modern Western world. The trajectories of increasing household debt are studied in the contexts of the US and the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Finland and Norway. Household Debt and Economic Crises examines remedies to prevent and alleviate the overindebtedness epidemic, creating a conceptual framework with which to analyse the causes and consequences of debt. Hiilamo argues that social policies are needed to tackle the current borrowing crisis that endangers and prevents the full participation in society of individuals with excessive debts.

Reconstruction and the Arc of Racial (in) Justice

Individualism and Inequality The Future of Work and Politics

Edited by Julian Maxwell Hayter and George R. Goethals, University of Richmond, US

Ralph Fevre, Cardiff University, UK

‘Julian Maxwell Hayter and George R. Goethals have edited an outstanding collection of essays dealing with the repeated efforts to forge a more inclusive republic in the decades after the American Civil War. In elegantly-crafted pieces ranging from the war years to the heights of the first Reconstruction era, and from the 1960s to the troubled present, these established scholars weave together often-forgotten stories of struggles for racial justice. Tragically, many of them remind us that old victories are rarely permanent, and that the fight continues. An important volume for all studying the long arc of Reconstructions in America.’ – Douglas R.

Sustainable Development Goals and Income Inequality

‘Individualism and Inequality is an interdisciplinary work that will be of interest to scholars from several fields, including political theory, education, history, psychology, and management. It brings together these areas to create an interesting narrative of the development of neoliberalism in the USA and UK.

Handbook on Wealth and the Super-Rich Edited by Iain Hay, Flinders University, Australia and Jonathan V. Beaverstock, University of Bristol, UK ‘Very highly recommended for both community and academic library reference collections, Handbook on Wealth and the Super-Rich will also prove to be of great interest to public commentators, charitable organizations, governmental policy makers, NGO activists, and the non-specialist general reader concerned with wealth and income distributions.’

Edited by Peter A.G. van Bergeijk and Rolph van der Hoeven, Erasmus University, the Netherlands ‘The Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations have set the most ambitious development agenda in history. For the first time, income inequality was included as a specific goal, and one that is essential to stem one of the worst trends that the world has been experiencing in recent decades. Ambitious political efforts will be needed to reverse this trend because without equality the inclusive and transformative development that the SDGs have set cannot be achieved. Providing accessible analysis and evidence-based policy advice, Sustainable Development Goals and Income Inequality is a must read for development researchers and practitioners, politicians and concerned citizens alike.’

Social Services Disrupted Changes, Challenges and Policy Implications for Europe in Times of Austerity Edited by Flavia Martinelli, Universitå Mediterranea di Reggio Calabria, Italy, Anneli Anttonen, University of Tampere, Finland and Margitta Mätzke, Johannes Kepler University Linz, Austria This book revives the discussion on public social services and their redesign, with a focus on services relating to care and the social inclusion of vulnerable groups, providing rich information on the changes that occurred in the organisation and supply of public social services over the last thirty years in different European places and service fields. Despite the persisting variety in social service models, three shared trends emerge: public sector disengagement, ‘vertical re-scaling’ of authority and ‘horizontal re-mix’ in the supply system. The consequences of such changes are evaluated from different perspectives – governance, social and territorial cohesion, labour market, gender – and are eventually deemed ‘disruptive’ in both economic and social terms. The policy implications of the restructuring are also explored. 2017 448 pp Hardback 978 1 78643 210 0 £115.00 eBook • Open access on Elgaronline

Edited by leading scholars in the field, the volume provides an intelligent and well structured overview of the history, politics and outcomes of social investment policies in a range of different contexts.

‘This anthology is a theoretically innovative study of the seven deadly sins in contemporary consumer culture. It is a much wanted in-depth understanding of the sins’ emergence, meanings and consequences in consumer culture that allow us to realize their complexity and the importance of considering both micro, mezzo and macro/supra levels as well as reciprocal interactions in-between. The book offers an important reflection of the ambiguous interpretations of the seven deadly sins in today’s consumer culture and is both an intriguing and challenging endeavour.’ – Karin M. Ekström, University of Borås, Sweden Offering a novel view on morality in consumption, this book creatively examines how the seven deadly sins - pride, greed, lust, gluttony, envy, wrath, and sloth – are embodied in contemporary consumer society. Each of the seven chapters summarizes previous literature of the sins across disciplinary boundaries, and explores how consumption is likely to change in the future.

Financial Models and Society

Handbook of Cultural Security Edited by Yasushi Watanabe, Keio University, Japan

Villains or Scapegoats? Ekaterina Svetlova, University of Leicester, UK ‘Few issues are more important, and more often misunderstood, than the role of quantitative models in financial markets. Svetlova’s calm, balanced, and — above all — well-informed analysis of this issue will be highly influential.’

‘With a refreshingly original theoretical framework of “cultural security”, Professor Watanabe offers a collection of 24 chapters by eminent scholars from all over the world. Taking up urgent contemporary issues, each article deliberates upon the question of cultural security in the global era as “super modern” with competing soft powers or the global era as “postmodern” when culture serves as the “safety net” of one’s identity. It is a splendid contribution to academia as well as to the general public.’

– Donald MacKenzie, The University of Edinburgh, UK

– Emiko Ohnuki-Tierney, University of Wisconsin, US

This innovative book employs the social studies of finance approach, which aims to enhance the dialogue between finance and sociology by addressing the blind spots of economic and financial theories. In so doing, it challenges the accusations made towards financial models in the aftermath of the last economic crisis and argues that they cannot be condemned indiscriminately. Their influence on markets and society is not straightforward, but determined by the many ways in which models are created and then used. Ekaterina Svetlova analyses the various patterns of the application of models in asset management, risk management and financial engineering to demonstrate that their power is far more fragile than widespread criticism would indicate.

How are cultural identities, values and traditions challenged, appropriated and negotiated? What does ‘being secure’ mean? Is ‘soft power’ merely a continuation of imperialism? The Handbook of Cultural Security heightens our awareness of the interplay between ‘culture’ and ‘society’ in the age of globalization, and explores the emerging concept of cultural security.

Leadership, Popular Culture and Social Change

A Research Agenda for Neoliberalism

Edited by Kristin M.S. Bezio, University of Richmond and Kimberly Yost, Lourdes University, US

‘Engagingly written, this book offers a refreshing introduction to the intellectual history of neoliberalism. Offering an explanation of where neoliberal ideas came from, the varying ways in which these ideas have been analysed and used, and the core contradictions in the neoliberal interpretation of contemporary capitalism, it will be of great value to scholars and students alike. At a time when market ascendance is increasingly challenged, it also convincingly shows why neoliberalism cannot serve as a road map for the future.’

Kean Birch, Senior Associate, Innovation Policy Lab, University of Toronto, Canada

The newest generation of leaders was raised on a steady diet of popular culture artifacts mediated through technology, such as film, television and online gaming. As technology expands access to cultural production, popular culture continues to play an important role as an egalitarian vehicle for promoting ideological dissent and social change. The chapters in this book examine works and creators of popular culture – from literature to film and music to digital culture – in order to address the ways in which popular culture shapes and is shaped by leaders around the globe as they strive to change their social systems for the better. 2018 256 pp Hardback 978 1 78536 896 7 £85.00 eBook • Elgaronline New Horizons in Leadership Studies series

In a time where governments and civil society organizations are putting ever-greater stock in social innovation as a route to transformation, understanding what characterizes social innovation with transformative potential is important. Exciting and promising ideas seem to die out as often as they take flight, and market mechanisms, which go a long way towards contributing to successful technical innovations, play an insignificant role in social innovations. The cases in this book explore the evolution of successful social innovation through time, from the ideas which catalysed social and system entrepreneurs to create new processes, platforms, projects and programmes to fundamental social shifts in culture, economics, laws and policies which occurred as a result. In doing so, the authors shed light on how to recognize transformative potential in the early stage innovations we see today. 2017 288 pp Hardback 978 1 78643 114 1 £90.00 eBook • Elgaronline



Contributions to this book probe the contexts–both social and spiritual–from which select iconic figures emerge and discover how to present themselves as innovators and cultural leaders, as well as draw material into forms that subsequent generations consider innovative or emblematic. The overall import of the book is to locate producers of culture such as authors, poets, singers, and artists as leaders, both in their respective genres, and of culture and society more broadly through the influence exerted by their works.

Society, Regulation and Governance New Modes of Shaping Social Change? Edited by Regine Paul, Marc Mölders, Alfons Bora, Michael Huber and Peter Münte, Bielefeld University, Germany ‘Modern society is shaped in ways that were scarcely thought of a few years ago – and debates on regulation and governance have much work to do if they are to come to grips with new modes and sources of influence such as the new media and transnational engagements. This book makes an incisive contribution to the re-configuring of those debates and will appeal to all who look for an invigorated understanding of regulation, governance and social change.’ – Robert Baldwin, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK 2017 240 pp Hardback 978 1 78643 837 9 £75.00 eBook • Elgaronline

Handbook of Gentrification Studies

The Home Multidisciplinary Reflections Edited by Antonio Argandoña, University of Navarra, Barcelona, Spain

Edited by Loretta Lees with Martin Phillips, University of Leicester, UK It is now over 50 years since the term ‘gentrification’ was first coined by the British urbanist Ruth Glass in 1964, in which time gentrification studies has become a subject in its own right. This Handbook, the first ever in gentrification studies, is a critical and authoritative assessment of the field. Although the Handbook does not seek to rehearse the classic literature on gentrification from the 1970s to the 1990s in detail, it is referred to in the new assessments of the field gathered in this volume. The original chapters offer an important dialogue between existing theory and new conceptualisations of gentrification for new times and new places, in many cases offering novel empirical evidence.

An invaluable contribution that sheds light on both the way we live now and the concepts we use to make sense of our time.’

Social Innovation and Democratic Leadership

– Michael Keith, University of Oxford, UK

Communities and Social Change from Below Marc Parés, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain, Sonia M. Ospina, New York University, US and Joan Subirats, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain While liberal-representative democracies tend to conform to a consensus-based post-political paradigm where there is no space for alternatives and dissensus, new forms of democracy in practice are emerging from below. This book explores new socially innovative initiatives that have appeared following the 2011 global uprisings. Initiatives that flourish not only as alternative responses to current social needs but also as new forms of democracy, a democracy that comes from below, by and for the ‘have-nots’. 2017 288 pp Hardback 978 1 78536 787 8 £85.00 eBook • Elgaronline

‘This is by far the best book on regional developments, and one of the first two or three books we must now turn to in order to understand global higher education – it provides an invaluable geo-spatial lens that complements analyses based on political economy and culture.’

‘Politics surrounds academic life. The state, the organization, its actors, and the policies that get developed in tertiary education all function by way of political frameworks. What makes this Handbook useful is not only that it is comprehensive, but also that it crosses national boundaries and provides a geopolitical understanding to complex topics. The authors are experts in the field and the topic is of timely import. Thoughtful. Useful. Provocative.’

Historically, of course, it formed the bedrock of higher education – the great Victorian foundations in the north and midlands of England, the land-grant universities in the United States. But more recently they (or, more accurately, their values) have been shouted down by the drumbeat discourse of “world-class” universities. This book offers an overdue correction, a celebration of civic and community engagement as a fundamental responsibility of the contemporary university.’ – Sir Peter Scott, UCL Institute of Education, UK 2016 352 pp Hardback 978 1 78471 771 1 £90.00 eBook • Elgaronline

“In an extremely well-documented and surgically analytical volume, Robin Wilson charts the fall of Europe as a moral beacon of the free world during the 2015 “refugee crisis” and its aftermath. But he also raises hope amidst the gloom. A new paradigm of integration conjugating equality, diversity and inclusion is being embraced by a growing coalition of (mostly local) leaders. Wilson convincingly shows that intercultural integration is win for both solidarity and prosperity.

Reconsidering EU Citizenship Contradictions and Constraints

In the 1990s, the Maastricht Treaty introduced the right to free movement for EU citizens. In practice, however, there are substantial barriers to making use of this right, particularly to integration and to accessing the social and welfare rights available. This is particularly true when it comes to accessing social rights, such as social assistance, housing benefit, study grants and health care. This book provides a detailed description and thorough analysis of these barriers, in both law and practice. March 2018 288 pp Hardback 978 1 78811 270 3 £95.00 eBook • Elgaronline

Reducing Inequalities in Europe How Industrial Relations and Labour Policies Can Close the Gap Edited by Daniel Vaughan-Whitehead, International Labour Office, Geneva, Switzerland and Sciences Po, Paris, France International debate has recently focused on increased inequalities and the adverse effects that they may have on both social and economic developments. Income inequality, which is at its highest level for the past half-century, may not only undermine the sustainability of European social policy but also put at risk Europe’s sustainable recovery. A common feature of recent reports on inequality (ILO, OECD, IMF, 2015–2017) is their recognition that the causes emerge from mechanisms in the world of work. The purpose of this book is to investigate the possible role of industrial relations, and social policies more generally, in reducing these inequalities.

Bravo!’ – Timothy M.

And yet, workers are not only victims but also agents with possibilities of resistance. The book points to the potential of a cross-border movement of the dispossessed based on a re-imagined role of the labour movement.

The ancient moral philosophy of Epicureanism offers many valuable lessons for the modern world. How to Live Well updates and modifies Epicurean philosophy to offer an exciting new framework for contemporary social reform. How To Live Well provides a synopsis of the key facets of Epicureanism and offers a history of Epicureanism across the past twenty centuries. Fitzpatrick identifies the core criticisms of Epicureanism and compares it with Aristotelian thought. In light of these criticisms, he proposes a ‘new epicureanism’, based around four key subjects: liberty and freedom, justice and community, our obligations to other humans and nonhumans, and social justice and reform. Rejecting classical Epicurean hostility towards public intervention, How To Live Well proposes that ‘new Epicureans’ must promote and defend social fairness, and equate personal with communal well-being.

Bent Greve, Roskilde University, Denmark ‘Ongoing technological development brings the promise of higher productivity, increased efficiencies, and convenience, but the new technologies also raise difficult questions according to Bent Greve in this ground-breaking book concerning the impact of automation on jobs, skills, wages and inequality. Are welfare states prepared and how can they cope if there are fewer earners? Greve is the acknowledged expert on such questions. Social scientists interested in labour markets and welfare state transformations will enthusiastically welcome this book.’ – Christopher Deeming, Journal of Social Policy and University of Strathclyde, UK 2017 168 pp Hardback 978 1 78643 428 9 £65.00 eBook • Elgaronline

Understanding Collective Decision Making A Fitness Landscape Model Approach Lasse Gerrits, Otto-Friedrich University Bamberg, Germany and Peter Marks, Erasmus University Rotterdam, the Netherlands ‘Brilliant! Grounded in the concept of fitness landscapes – as well as the latest advances in case-based modeling and critical realism, and also visual and social complexity – this book is a significant breakthrough in the study of collective decision making, particularly as it unfolds across conceptual time/space. To do so, Gerrits and Marks appeal to the readers’ intuition, helping them navigate two fictional worlds (clock and cloud) to arrive at four different real-world empirical examples, which are wonderfully illustrated. There is also a web-based software package (UN-CODE), which the authors developed and which readers can now use to employ these new tools. An absolute must-read!’ – Brian Castellani, Kent State University, US 2017 256 pp Hardback 978 1 78347 314 4 £80.00 eBook • Elgaronline

Sociology

In Search of Best Practice

Protecting Migrant Children

An Introduction

Edited by Mary Crock, The University of Sydney, Australia and Lenni Benson, New York Law School, US

Ken Roberts, University of Liverpool, UK Sociology’s goals are ambitious. Their pursuit is exciting. Covering the development of sociology from its origins to the present day as well as identifying the strengths and limitations of all sociology’s main research methods, this book provides a lucid introduction for students who are embarking on or considering taking-up sociology. It explains the jargon in all sociology’s main theories and methods.

Unprecedented numbers of children are crossing international borders seeking safety. Framed around compelling case studies explaining why children are on the move in Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, the Middle East and Oceania, this book explores the jurisprudence and processes used by nations to adjudicate children’s protection claims. The book includes contributions from leading scholars in immigration, refugee law, children’s rights and human trafficking which critically examine the strengths and weaknesses of international and domestic laws with the aim of identifying best practice for migrant children.

Succinct and comprehensive, this book welcomes and challenges sociology students.

Migration

Challenging Immigration Detention

NEW KEY TITLE

Refugees, Civil Society and the State

Academics, Activists and Policy-makers

European Experiences and Global Challenges Ludger Pries, Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany ‘Ludger Pries shows how refugee flows are a symptom of a new transnational social question, revealing the weakness of the Common European Asylum framework, which has degenerated into a system of “organised non-responsibility”. In global terms, the United Nations’ refugee protection is breaking down, making new approaches essential. Pries institutional sociology approach points to possible ways forward, based on involvement of civil society and social movements, and strategies to reduce inequality within and between nations.’

Edited by Michael J. Flynn, Global Detention Project, Switzerland and Matthew B. Flynn, Georgia Southern University, US ‘The resort to immigration detention of asylum seekers and migrants is a global phenomenon that breaches fundamental human rights. In Challenging Immigration Detention the authors examine the impact on families and their children held in detention in the United States, Australia, the European Union and South America. This collation of research is an invaluable tool in responding to the growing movement of peoples across national borders in search of safety and a better life.’ – Gillian Triggs, Australian Human Rights Commission

– Stephen Castles, University of Sydney, Australia ‘Ludger Pries uses three dyads to provide a sophisticated examination of the “refugee crisis” of 2015: the global dynamics of migration vs methodological nationalism, the evolution of European legal asylum instruments vs “organized non-responsibility” on the part of some political leaders and, finally, internationalist solidarity movements vs right-wing populism. The result is an insightful analysis of events hitherto obscured by sensationalist headlines.’ – Robin Cohen, University of Oxford, UK April 2018 c 264 pp Hardback 978 1 78811 652 7 c £80.00 eBook • Elgaronline

Research Handbook on Child Migration Edited by Jacqueline Bhabha, Harvard University, US, Jyothi Kanics, University of Lucerne, Switzerland and Daniel Senovilla Hernández, MIGRINTER- CNRS The scope and complexity of child migration have only recently emerged as a critical factors in global migration. This volume assembles for the first time a richly interdisciplinary body of work, drawing on contributions from renowned scholars, eminent practitioners and prominent civil society advocates from across the globe and from a wide range of different mobility contexts. Their invaluable pedagogical tools and research documents demonstrate the urgency and breadth of this important new aspect of international human mobility in our global age.


Digitalization, Immigration and the Welfare State Mårten Blix, Research Institute of Industrial Economics, Sweden ‘Using the economic and social laboratory of Sweden, Mårten Blix provides a fascinating window into the future of the welfare state with the threats and opportunities from a massive increase in immigration and rapid digitilisation of the economy. The Swedish Model’s core features of collective bargaining, broad unionisation and a strong fiscal base are eroding, increasing inequality and challenging the legitimacy of the political consensus to date. His interesting observations and balanced analysis of the growing importance of platform-based jobs and life-long learning have implications much beyond Sweden.’ – Erik Berglöf, London School of Economics, UK 2017 200 pp Hardback 978 1 78643 294 0 £70.00 eBook • Elgaronline New Thinking in Political Economy series

New Contexts and Challenges in Europe

‘Like the city, the nation, life itself, migration has become increasingly diverse. This stimulating, multi-disciplinary edited collection looks at questions about the connections between time, space and migration at a variety of scales and across a range of sites. Rhythms, patterns and scales of permanent, cyclical and temporary migration are explored in fascinating detail, providing new insights into an increasingly important phenomenon in a globalising world. This collection will reset the agenda for migration studies.’ – Linda McDowell, University of Oxford, UK 2017 192 pp Hardback 978 1 78643 322 0 £75.00 eBook • Elgaronline

Handbook on Migration and Security Edited by Philippe Bourbeau, University Laval, Canada ‘Managing migration flows used to be the remit of government departments of the interior and labour. Now foreign offices, anti-terrorist agencies and ministries of defence are involved. What accounts for this dramatic process of securitization? In this pioneering book, the editor and contributors go beyond familiar post-9/11 narratives to untangle the theoretical, discursive, gendered and political aspects of the question. The authors cover topics like smuggling, trade, migration policies and health pandemics, doing so in a conceptually challenging and original way.’ – Robin Cohen, Emeritus Professor, University of Oxford, UK 2017 488 pp Hardback 978 1 78536 048 0 £140.00 eBook • Elgaronline

Migration, Health and Survival International Perspectives Edited by Frank Trovato, University of Alberta, Canada ‘This work provides a rigorous review of factors predicting the health and mortality of immigrants both in the short and long term: healthy migrant selection effects are contrasted with the negative acculturation, blockages in labor markets, pre-immigration exposure to trauma among refugees, and other factors which can pose threats to health. Trovato concludes his book with an integrative model which is vital to understanding and tracking the health of the millions of asylum seekers and refugees in today’s world.’ – Steven Stack, Wayne State University, US 2017 320 pp Hardback 978 1 78536 596 6 £100.00 eBook • Elgaronline

Edited by Stefania Marino, The University of Manchester, UK, Judith Roosblad, Inspectorate of Social Affairs and Employment and Rinus Penninx, University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands ‘This timely book offers not only richly textured studies of European trade union responses to the influx of immigrant workers across the continent, but also an insightful comparative analysis. Building on an earlier volume that the editors published at the turn of the 21st century, this one focuses on the new challenges posed by growing economic globalization, trade union decline and the surge of xenophobia among European workers. It deserves a prominent spot on the bookshelf of anyone interested in labor movements and migration, not only in Europe but worldwide.’ – Ruth Milkman, The Graduate Center, City University of New York, US 2017 424 pp Hardback 978 1 78811 407 3 £110.00 eBook • Elgaronline ILERA Publication series

The Legal Protection of Refugees with Disabilities Forgotten and Invisible? Mary Crock, Laura Smith-Khan, Ron McCallum and Ben Saul, The University of Sydney, Australia ‘At a time when the whole world is in an emotional state about refugees, with escalating polarization and discrimination, it is easy to invoke antagonistic feelings about the “other”. Sadly, our ideal of “living together” is being replaced by the word “security” each day and it is time we remember that there is another side to security. This is why I am honored to endorse this great book by Crock, Smith-Khan, McCallum and Saul; for reminding us of the protection issues and rights of refugees with disabilities, making them visible again. This book does not only provide a rich variety of field findings, identifying the complex issues related to forced displacement and disability in the field, but also offers great guidance on how to overcome these challenges through the utilization of international law.’ – Safak Pavey, MP, Turkish Parliament and former member of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2017 336 pp Hardback 978 1 78643 543 9 £90.00 eBook • Elgaronline Elgar Studies in Human Rights
