This fully revised and updated edition of Social Movements and Protest Politics provides interdisciplinary perspectives on the sociology of protest movements. It considers major theories and concepts, which are presented in a clear, accessible, and engaging format. The second edition contains new chapters on methods and ethics of social movement research, and legal mobilisation, protest policing and criminal justice activism, including calls to abolish or defund police made at protests during the COVID-19 pandemic. This edition introduces readers to the concept of the ‘post-protest society’ wherein the right to protest is whittled away to near vanishing point, and authorities have considerable legal recourse to ban protests and render the tactics of protest movements ineffective. The book also looks at recent developments and novel social movements, including Black Lives Matter, Extinction Rebellion, Gilets Jaunes, #MeToo, and Hong Kong’s Umbrella Movement, as well as the rise of contemporary forms of populism in democratic societies.The book presents specific chapters outlining the early origins of social movement studies and more recent theoretical and conceptual developments. It considers key ideas from resource mobilisation theory, the political process model, and new social movement approaches. It provides extensive commentary on the role of culture in social protest (including visual images, emotions, storytelling, music, and sport), religious movements, geography and struggles over space, media and movements, and global activism. Historical and contemporary case studies and examples from a variety of countries are provided throughout, including the American civil rights movement, Greenpeace, Pussy Riot, Indigenous peoples’ movements, liberation theology, Indignados, Occupy, Tea Party, and Arab Spring. Each chapter also contains illustrations and boxed case studies to demonstrate the issues under discussion.Social Movements and Protest Politics will be an indispensable resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students in the social sciences and humanities wanting to be introduced to or extend their knowledge of the field. The book will also prove useful to university teachers and academic researchers, activists, and practitioners interested in the study of social, cultural, and political protest.

Commentators have shown how a ‘culture of security’ ushered in after the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001 has involved exceptional legal measures and increased recourse to secrecy on the basis of protecting public safety and safeguarding national security. In this context, scholars have largely been preoccupied with the ways that increased security impinges upon civil liberties. While secrecy is justified on public interest grounds, there remains a tension between the need for secrecy and calls for openness, transparency and disclosure.In law, secrecy has implications for the separation of powers, due process, and the rule of law, raising fundamental concerns about open justice, procedural fairness and human rights. Beyond the counterterrorism and legal context, scholarly interest in secrecy has been concerned with the credibility of public and private institutions, as well as the legacies of secrecy across a range of institutional and cultural settings.By exploring the intersections between secrecy, law and society, this volume is a timely and critical intervention in secrecy debates traversing various fields of legal and social inquiry. It will be a useful resource for academic researchers, university teachers and students, as well as law practitioners and policymakers interested in the legal and socio-legal dimensions of secrecy.

Working broadly from the perspective of cultural criminology, Crime, Media and Culture engages with theories and debates about the nature of media-audience relations, examines representations of crime and justice in news media and fiction, and considers the growing significance of digital technologies and social media.The book discusses the multiple effects media representations of crime have on audiences but also the ways media portrayals of crime and disorder influence government policy and lawmaking. It also considers the processes by which certain stories are selected for their newsworthiness. Also examined are the theoretical, conceptual and methodological underpinnings of cultural criminology and its subfields of visual criminology and narrative criminology.Drawing on case studies and empirical examples from the increasingly blurred worlds of reality and entertainment, the dynamics of crime, media and culture are illuminated across a range of chapters covering topics that include: moral panics/folk devils and trial by media; fear of crime; cop shows and courtroom dramas; female criminality and child-on-child killing; serial killers; surveillance, new media and policing; organized crime and state crime.Crime, Media and Culture will be an invaluable resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students interested in criminology and media studies.

Randomness and the Riemann Hypothesis

Häftad, Engelska, 2026

938 kr

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar

This book presents a rich, insightful exploration of the interplay between randomness, the Riemann Hypothesis, and analytic number theory. Written for readers with a moderate background in mathematics (preferably having some familiarity with probability theory and complex analysis), it offers a deeper and more comprehensive account of the Riemann Hypothesis and its far-reaching consequences than is typically available in books aimed at general audiences. The book takes a relaxed and engaging approach, highlighting the beauty and intuition behind the key ideas. Technical proofs are kept to a minimum, with accessible arguments presented fully, while deeper results are described in context and supported by historical background and comprehensive references. This combination allows readers to appreciate the elegance of the subject and to navigate their own path toward more advanced study. Bringing together a wealth of material that is otherwise widely scattered across the literature, the book serves as an indispensable reference for researchers and enthusiasts alike. Throughout, it illuminates the crucial role that randomness plays in modern number theory-inspiring conjectures, guiding proofs, and opening new directions of inquiry. Six valuable appendices round out the volume, providing opportunities to review-or learn-essential background material across a range of mathematical topics.

Although intervention and campaigning have long been integral to critical criminology, in recent years, criminal justice activism has taken new directions and gathered momentum, especially with the advent of digital technologies and social media. These have made it easier than ever for ordinary citizens and professional journalists alike to comment on perceived injustices and potentially intervene in formal criminal justice processes.

The Emerald International Handbook of Activist Criminology examines the history of both recent and more established justice campaigns and interventions. Spanning contributions from activists, activist academics, and practitioners from five continents, chapters address a range of criminological perspectives that engage in questions of effecting change through activism. Contributors also consider prominent international issues including feminist criminology, juvenile justice, migrant rights, corporate and state crime, indigenous rights, green/environmental criminology, sentencing and wrongful conviction, the harms of prisons, corrections and abolitionism, and justice for victim/survivors of harm and crime.

Collectively, The Emerald International Handbook of Activist Criminology explores the contemporary terrain around new and emergent issues and forms of activism, and offers cutting edge conceptualizations of the methodological and practical applications of activist engagement, solidarity, and resistance.

Wer sich schon einmal mit Buddhismus beschäftigt hat, weiß: Er kann ganz schön verwirrend sein. Dieses Buch liefert fundiert und übersichtlich alles, um mit dem Buddhismus zu beginnen, ein glückliches Leben zu führen und die Erleuchtung - die Buddhaschaft - im jetzigen Leben spürbar zu verwirklichen. Und zwar so, wie Du bist - ohne Dein Aussehen, Deine Ernährungsweise oder Lebensgewohnheiten zu ändern.Im Japan des 13. Jahrhunderts gab es einen religiösen Reformer namens Nichiren. Seine Lehre ist die Quintessenz des Mahayana-Buddhismus, denn sie verwirklicht den Wunsch des damaligen Buddha für die jetzige Zeit: Alle Lebewesen sollen Buddha werden. Nichiren schuf eine Ausübung, die in den modernen Alltag passt und vor allem eines ist: wirksam. Zwölf Millionen Menschen weltweit machen damit bereits ihre Erfahrungen. Der Buddha - das bist Du lädt den Leser ein, mit dem Buddhismus das eigene Leben zu verändern, Schritt für Schritt und dennoch radikal.
