Practising Empowerment in Post-Apartheid South Africa
Despite the promise and optimism surrounding the post-apartheid transition, South African society continues to be highly racialised in its discourses, identities and practices, even within the very strategies that aim to change power relations and heal racialised divisions. Renowned for its brutal past practices, the wine industry in South Africa has long been associated with white power and black exploitation, and remains dogged by continuing allegations of poor working conditions and labour abuses. Through in-depth, longitudinal fieldwork, this book considers how different ethics interact and draws attention to the positive changes and continuing development challenges faced in South Afric...
Ethical Value Networks in International Trade
This forward-looking book introduces the concept of Ethical Value Networks, building upon a theoretical exploration with primary evidence of their impacts in the Global South. It moves away from focusing on the consumption section of networks, with grounded impact studies that explore ethicality as a concept, how ethical value is created and how this is distributed through the socio-economy.

Taste, Waste and the New Materiality of Food
Anthropocentric thinking produces fractured ecological perspectives that can perpetuate destructive, wasteful behaviours. Learning to recognise the entangled nature of our everyday relationships with food can encourage ethical ecological thinking and lay the foundations for more sustainable lifestyles. This book analyses ethnographic data gathered from participants in Alternative Food Networks from farmers’ markets to community gardens, agricultural shows and food redistribution services. Drawing on theoretical insights from political ecology, eco-feminism, ecological humanities, human geography and critical food studies, the author demonstrates the sticky and enduring nature of anthropoce...
Faith-Based Organisations and Exclusion in European Cities
At a time of heightened neoliberal globalisation and crisis, welfare state retrenchment and desecularisation of society, amid uniquely European controversies over immigration, integration and religious-based radicalism, this timely book explores the role played by faith-based organisations (FBOs), which are growing in importance in the provision of social services in the European context. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, the contributions to the volume present original research examples and a pan-European perspective to assess the role of FBOs in combating poverty and various expressions of exclusion and social distress in cities across Europe. This significant and highly topical volume should become a vital reference source for the burgeoning number of studies that are likely follow and will make essential reading for students and academics in social policy, sociology, geography, politics, urban studies and theology/ religious studies.
Landscapes of Hate
Providing a much-needed perspective on exclusion and discrimination, this book offers a distinct spatial approach to the topic of hate studies. Of interest to academics and students of human geography, criminology, sociology and beyond, the book highlights enduring, diverse and uneven experiences of hate in contemporary society. The collection explores the intersecting experiences of those targeted on the basis of assumed and historically marginalized identities. It illustrates the role of specific spaces and places in shaping hate, why space matters for how hate is encountered and the importance of space in challenging cultures of hate. This analysis of who is able to use or abuse space offers a novel insight into discourses of hate and lived experiences of victimization.
PintorAs vol. 2
El proyecto artístico más ambicioso de Sara Rubayo, la historiadora del arte que ha revolucionado los museos en España, y Ana Gállego: una recopilación exhaustiva de todas las mujeres pintoras del siglo XVIII. Cuando un visitante entra en el Museo del Prado, espera ver Las Meninas de Diego Velázquez, no los bodegones de Clara Peeters, pese a pertenecer al mismo estilo artístico, y tener un incalculable valor histórico. PintorAs vol. 2 pretende dar respuesta al vacío de conocimiento que tiene la historia del arte: las mujeres artistas. No es que no las conozcamos porque no existieran, sino porque fueron despreciadas artísticamente y olvidadas históricamente. En este tomo, que comprende todo el siglo XVIII, Sara Rubayo y Ana Gállego aportan una nueva perspectiva a la historia del arte para que puedas darle el merecido reconocimiento a todas aquellas mujeres que han contribuido a nuestra cultura con su talento.
