Behavioural Public Policy
In this accessible collection, leading academic economists, psychologists and philosophers apply behavioural economic findings to practical policy concerns.
A Political Economy of Behavioural Public Policy
Behavioural public policy has thus far been dominated by approaches that are based on the premise that it is entirely legitimate for policymakers to design policies that nudge or influence people to avoid desires that may not be in their own self- interest. This book argues, instead, for a liberal political economy that radically departs from these paternalistic frameworks. Oliver argues for a framework whereby those who impose no substantive harms on others ought to be free of manipulative or coercive interference. On this view, BPP does not seek to "correct" an individual's conception of the desired life. This book is the third in a trilogy of books by Adam Oliver on the origins and conceptual foundations of BPP.
Reciprocity and the art of behavioural public policy
Analysing reciprocity from a multidisciplinary perspective, Oliver considers how this concept can help to inform public policy design.
The Origins of Behavioural Public Policy
An accessible introduction to how behavioural economics is used to influence and inform developments in public policy.
Holy Bible
Violence, calamity and the absurdity of war are recorded extensively within The Archive of Modern Conflict, the largest photographic collection of its kind in the world. For their most recent work, Holy Bible, Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin mined this archive with philosopher Adi Ophir's central tenet in mind: that God reveals himself predominantly through catastrophe and that power structures within the Bible correlate with those within modern systems of governance. - The format of Broomberg and Chanarin's illustrated Holy Bible mimics both the precise structure and the physical form of the King James Version. By allowing elements of the original text to guide their image selection, the artists explore themes of authorship, and the unspoken criteria used to determine acceptable evidence of conflict. - Inspired in part by the annotations and images Bertolt Brecht added to his own personal bible, Broomberg and Chanarin's publication questions the clichés at play within the visual representation of conflict.
Spirit is a Bone
The series of portraits in this book, which include Pussy Riot member Yekaterina Samutsevic and many other Moscow citizens, were created by a machine: a facial recognition system recently developed in Moscow for public security and border control surveillance. The result is more akin to a digital life mask than a photograph; a three-dimensional facsimile of the face that can be easily rotated and closely scrutinised. What is significant about this camera is that it is designed to make portraits without the co-operation of the subject; four lenses operating in tandem to generate a full frontal image of the face, ostensibly looking directly into the camera, even if the subject himself is unawa...
Legal
Who's the New Guy… Katie Walters and Adam Miller have gone back to New York City with one goal, and only one goal: Find whoever is stealing money from Adam's company, and find them now. Even better, they've got a contact in the city who claims he knows who the thief is. But when that contact won't give them the information they need, and Katie starts turning up files that make it look like Adam himself might be involved, things start getting really complicated. Will their budding relationship survive them solving this case? Or will it send them running to opposite corners, never to speak again? Be the player, not the piece...
