By examining portrayals of male homosociality in Sally Rooney's novels, the book documents how male relationships are formed, challenged, and often disavowed and the profound negative effects this can have for the wellbeing of men. The book also highlights the importance of the sociocultural context within which male relationships are formed and supports that the potential for healthy and meaningful relationships between men depends on how they are brought up to view themselves as men and their role in the society they live in. That is, despite the many examples whereby space for authentic and meaningful male homosociality is limited and well concealed, the book also offers a more optimistic potential for men's relationships by illustrating the significance of broader understandings of masculinity, unfettered by homophobia and misogyny, in allowing for male homosociality with the potential of emancipating men from heteropatriarchal norms which dictate their behaviour toward themselves and others.

Voices of Resistance: Music, Femicide, and Gender Justice in Spain and Greece examines how feminist musical practices across Southern Europe confront femicide and gender-based violence through mourning, memory, and political resistance.Drawing on detailed national case studies, the book argues that in contexts marked by institutional silences, legal gaps, or patriarchal backlash, music becomes a crucial feminist tool for naming violence, honouring victims, and sustaining collective demands for justice. In Spain, a rich genealogy of feminist musical activism intersects with a robust yet contested legislative landscape – functioning as emotional counter-publics that challenge antifeminist backlash and supplement the limitations of institutional responses. In Greece, where femicide lacks full legal recognition and media narratives often reproduce misogyny, music assumes an even more urgent role – transforming public grief into mobilisation and forging affective publics that hold state and society accountable.Across both contexts, Voices of Resistance positions music as a vital yet incomplete mode of feminist world-making, capable of unsettling silence and imagining more just futures.

Designing Curricula for Learner Autonomy and Engagement examines how higher education can be reimagined to empower learners as active, self-regulated participants in their own development. Across seven interconnected chapters, the book integrates theory, research, and practice to explore how autonomy and engagement can be systematically fostered in curriculum design, teaching strategies, and institutional policy. Starting with the conceptual foundations of learner autonomy and self-regulated learning, the book situates these ideas within the realities of contemporary higher education, including digital transformation, flexible delivery, and post-pandemic pedagogical change. It repositions notional hours as a learner-centred design tool and illustrates their application through a case study of an undergraduate module redesigned to enhance engagement and independent learning. Building on these principles, the book offers evidence-based frameworks for blended and interactive learning design, showing how Constructive Alignment, Self-Determination Theory, and Universal Design for Learning can be translated into practical strategies for fostering motivation, reflection, and meaningful interaction. Subsequent chapters address the measurement and enhancement of student engagement, introducing ethical, inclusive, and data-informed approaches to assessing behavioural, emotional, and cognitive participation. The discussion extends to institutional and policy levels, exploring how quality assurance systems, curriculum governance, and professional development can support autonomy-oriented innovation. Throughout, the book emphasises the integration of technological and human dimensions of learning, including the emerging influence of generative AI, and advocates for pedagogy that is both evidence-based and responsive to learners’ diverse needs. Bridging conceptual insight with actionable guidance, Designing Curricula for Learner Autonomy and Engagement provides educators, curriculum designers, and policymakers with a coherent framework for creating learning environments that cultivate agency, criticality, and sustained engagement in an evolving educational landscape.
