Re-imagining Democracy Legacy Impact and Lessons of Spain's 15-M Movement

Re-imagining Democracy Legacy Impact and Lessons of Spain's 15-M Movement

This interdisciplinary book draws on leading scholarship on one of the most influential and consequential social movements of the past decades: Spain’s 15-M movement. The volume explores the legacy impact and outcomes of the movement and the lessons it offers for understanding mobilization in times of crisis. The book opens with a theoretical reconsideration of the positive ways social movements can impact democracy moving the field forward significantly. It also offers rich case studies to explore a range of areas of interest to social movement scholars. Chapters explore the biographical consequences of participation in social movements; how memories of the movement inspired new mobilizations; the reciprocal influence between the 15-M movement and feminist economics; how urban democracy was transformed by municipalism arising from the movement; how the movement generated a “Caring democracy” in the face of the Covid pandemic; and how it gave rise to a new radical democratic media ecosystem. The book explores the movement’s political economy as well as reflects on one of its unintended consequences: the rise of the penalization of counter-hegemonic protest in contemporary Spain. Although focused on a single emblematic movement it offers significant insights and lessons for scholarship on contemporary politics and movements. Re-imagining Democracy provides a valuable resource for scholars and students interested in the challenges faced by contemporary democracies the dynamics of social movements in times of crisis and the profound impact of social movements on contemporary democracy. The chapters in this book were originally published as a peer-reviewed special issue of Social Movement Studies. | Re-imagining Democracy Legacy Impact and Lessons of Spain's 15-M Movement

Crossing Design Boundaries Proceedings of the 3rd Engineering & Product Design Education International Conference 15-16 September 2005 Edinburgh

This book presents over 100 papers from the 3rd Engineering and Product Design Education International Conference dedicated to the subject of exploring novel approaches in product design education. The theme of the book is Crossing Design Boundaries which reflects the editors wish to incorporate many of the disciplines associated with and integral to modern product design and development pursuits. Crossing Design Boundaries covers for example the conjunction of anthropology and design the psychology of design products the application of soft computing in wearable products and the utilisation of new media and design and how these can be best exploited within the current product design arena. The book includes discussions concerning product design education and the cross-over into other well established design disciplines such as interaction design jewellery design furniture design and exhibition design which have been somewhat under represented in recent years. The book comprises a number of sections containing papers which cover highly topical and relevant issues including Design Curriculum Development Interdisciplinarity Design Collaboration and Team Working Philosophies of Design Education Design Knowledge New Materials and New Technologies in Design Design Communication Industrial Collaborations and Working with Industry Teaching and Learning Tools and Design Theory. | Crossing Design Boundaries Proceedings of the 3rd Engineering & Product Design Education International Conference 15-16 September 2005 Edinburgh

Women Families and the British Army 1700–1880

Women Families and the British Army 1700–1880

This series concentrates on women and the soldiers in the ranks whose lives they shared assembling a wide body of evidence of their romantic entanglements and domestic concerns. The new military history of recent decades has demanded a broadening of the source base beyond elite accounts or those that concentrate solely on battlefield experiences. Armies did not operate in isolation and men’s family ties influenced the course of events in a variety of ways. Campfollowing women and children occupied a liminal space in campaign life. Those who travelled on the strength of the army received rations in return for providing services such as laundry and nursing but they could also be grouped with prostitutes and condemned as a ‘burden’ by officers. Parents wives and offspring left behind at home remained in soldiers’ thoughts despite an army culture aimed at replacing kin with regimental ties. Soldiers’ families’ suffering both on the march and back in Britain attracted public attention at key points in this period as well. This series provides for the first time in one place a wide body of texts relating to common soldiers’ personal lives: the women with whom they became involved their children and the families who cared for them. It brings hitherto unpublished material into print for the first time and resurrects accounts that have not been in wide circulation since the nineteenth century. The collection combines the observations of officers government officials and others with memoirs and letters from men in the ranks and from the women themselves. It draws extensively on press accounts especially in the nineteenth century. It also demonstrates the value of using literary depictions alongside the letters diaries memoirs and war office papers that form the traditional source base of military historians. This fifth volume covers The Crimean War (1854-56). | Women Families and the British Army 1700–1880

Representing Schizophrenia in the Media A Corpus-Based Approach to UK Press Coverage

Representing Schizophrenia in the Media A Corpus-Based Approach to UK Press Coverage

This book presents a critical analysis of ways in which schizophrenia and people with schizophrenia are represented in the press. Interrogating a 15-million-word corpus of news articles published by nine UK national newspapers over a 15-year period the author draws on techniques from corpus linguistics and critical discourse analysis to identify the most frequent and salient linguistic features used by journalists to influence and reflect broader public attitudes towards people with schizophrenia. In doing so this book: Evaluates the extent to which media representations are accurate and the extent to which they are potentially helpful or harmful towards people living with schizophrenia; Employs a bottom-up approach guided by linguistic patterns such as collocates and keywords identified by corpus software; Contributes to the de-stigmatisation of schizophrenic disorder by unveiling some of the widespread misconceptions surrounding it; Applies a mixed-methods approach in order to expose attitudes and beliefs found ‘between the lines’ – values and assumptions which are often implicit in the way language is used and therefore not visible to the naked eye. The findings of this monograph will be relevant to advanced students and researchers of health communication corpus linguistics and applied linguistics and will also carry importance for journalists and mental health practitioners. | Representing Schizophrenia in the Media A Corpus-Based Approach to UK Press Coverage
