Saul and the Monarchy: A New Look

Saul and the Monarchy: A New Look

The negative biblical presentation of King Saul of Israel has been biased in favour of David at the expense of Saul. This book presents a more positive picture and more realistic view of the culture of the period extending from Saul to the schism. Simcha Shalom Brooks explores a number of controversial issues such as the historicity of the biblical text on which so many modern scholars are sharply divided; that David was ambitious and coveted Saul's throne and even though David became king the people continued to support the house of Saul. This book makes a valuable contribution to the current biblical debate as to the existence of ancient Israel in the Iron Age 1 Period. Simcha Shalom Brooks draws on literary historical and archaeological material to present a balanced view of the period. | Saul and the Monarchy: A New Look

Digital Capitalism and New Institutionalism

Digital Capitalism and New Institutionalism

Modern institutional economics was created to study the institutions of pre-digital economies and is based on reductionist approaches. But digital capitalism is producing institutions of unprecedented complexity. This book argues therefore that not only the economic institutions themselves but also the theoretical foundations for studying those institutions must now be adapted to digital capitalism. The book focuses on the institutional complexity of digital capitalism developing an interdisciplinary framework which brings together cutting-edge theoretical approaches from philosophy (first of all object-oriented ontology) sociology (especially actor–network theory) evolutionary biology and cognitive science. In particular the book outlines a new approach to the study of institutional evolution based on extended evolutionary synthesis – a new paradigm in evolutionary biology which is now replacing neo-Darwinism. The book develops an enactivist notion of extended cognition and cognitive institutions rejecting the individualistic and mechanistic understanding of economic rationality in digital environments. The author experiments with new philosophical approaches to investigate institutional complexity for example the ideas of the flat ontology and the assemblage theory. The flat ontology approach is applied to the study of human–robot institutions as well as to thinking about post-anthropocentric institutional design. Assemblage thinking allows for a new (much less idealistic) look at blockchain and smart cities. Blockchain as digital institutional technology is considered in the book not from the viewpoint of minimizing transaction costs (as is customary in the modern institutional economics) but by using the theory of transaction value which focuses on improving the quality of digital transactions. The book includes a wide range of examples ranging from metaverses cryptocurrencies and big data to robot rules smart contracts and machine learning algorithms. Written for researchers in institutional economics and other social sciences this interdisciplinary book is essential reading for anyone interested in the interplay of institutional and digital change. | Digital Capitalism and New Institutionalism

New Regionalism in Australia

New Regionalism in Australia

New Regionalism promoted as a new paradigm of development by the OECD suggests that globalization is bringing together new technologies management employees and communities to form new patterns of local governance. However despite the growing influence of New Regionalism in regional development policy in the West and increasingly in Australia there has been little debate about the relevance and application of these ideas in Australia. Bringing together contributions from academics practitioners and policy makers this book redresses this imbalance by examining the theoretical and empirical foundations of this powerful and growing school of thought locating the debate firmly in the Australian context. With an opening chapter by Kevin Morgan (Cardiff University) who has been at the heart of the New Regionalism debate the book provides important insights into the theory and practice of New Regionalism in this vibrant region. | New Regionalism in Australia

Lawfare New Trajectories in Law

Lawfare New Trajectories in Law

This book develops a new conceptualisation of lawfare that recognises the polysemantic nature of the term. Drawing on theoretical developments from legal anthropology international relations and social theory the book scrutinises the multiple dimensions of this phenomenon. It illustrates the multifaceted character of lawfare with a wide range of historical and contemporary cases from across the globe and analyses the implications of actors pursuing political objectives through legal means. This includes the use of lawfare by states as a legal instrument to accomplish geopolitical objectives domestic lawfare or the use of legal instruments to undermine internal opposition and state lawfare used by governments to ‘protect’ the state from internal territorial-secessionist challenges. Finally the book shows that lawfare is not exclusively a tool for hegemonic actors as it can also be used by civil society actors that aim to uphold their rights through legal instruments in asymmetric lawfare. This book contributes to new developments in lawfare without shying away from controversy acknowledging its sometimes-brutal efficacy as well as its potential pitfalls. The book will appeal to scholars and students of law international relations political science anthropology and sociology. | Lawfare New Trajectories in Law

Material Feminisms New Directions for Education

Material Feminisms New Directions for Education

Material Feminisms: New Directions for Education provides a range of powerful theoretical and innovative methodological examples to illuminate how new material feminism can be put to work in education to open up new avenues of research design and practice. It poses challenging questions about the nature of knowledge production the role of the researcher and the critical endeavour arising from inter- and post-disciplinarity. Working with diffractive methodologies and new materialist ecological epistemologies the book offers resources for hope which widen the scope for how educational problems are interrogated and provides a political counter-movement to neo-positivist outcomes-based approaches within education. Inspired by writers such as Barad Bennett and Deleuze and Guattari the book makes a radical break with cognitive dualist and universal conceptions of human subjectivity and intelligence in education. By taking its starting point as the co-consitutiveness of discourse materiality corporeality and place the book foregrounds educational practices as material enactments of multiple non-linear entangled affective and relational forces. It offers new insights into how gender class and ethnicity are constituted in and by material assemblages that are often submerged or ‘unseen’. This book is an essential starting place for those intrigued by what new theoretical accounts of materiality posthumanism and affect can offer educational research. Diffractive methodologies challenge readers to take a fuller range of actors into account than in ‘objective’ humanist methodologies and in so doing to pay closer attention to what data is. It invites researchers to engage with long-standing feminist concerns about power and knowledge production in research processes. This book was originally published as a special issue of Gender and Education. | Material Feminisms New Directions for Education
