The International Doctoral Research Centre (IDRC; www.idrcentre.org) was created by like-minded researchers who wish to promote excellence in doctoral and post-doctoral research. The IDRC hosts two annual research seminars - the European Research Seminar held in April and the American Research Seminar held in September. For details about locations, submission guidelines, and other information about these annual seminars, please visit www.idrcentre.org. In addition to the two annual seminars, the IDRC publishes an annual journal: the Journal of International Doctoral Research (JIDR). This is the inaugural issue of the JIDR.

An innovative, field-tested framework for leaders and managers on how to create more diverse leadership and management teams. We need the strength that comes from diversity more now than we ever have in our collective memory. Without leadership teams that reflect the full range of humanity, for-profit and nonprofit organizations alike will find it more difficult to confront today’s challenges and are unlikely to thrive in the long term. But no two organizations have the same need for greater diversity in leadership nor the same path to achieving it. In The Leaders You Need, Karen Brown offers an innovative, field-tested ABCD Framework that will help readers to discover the hidden leadershi...

This fifth volume of the JIDR is devoted to a wide range of research themes, which are all linked to the concepts of learning, motivation and happiness, both implicitly and explicitly. The discussions in these articles highlight several recurring and yet under-researched issues in these fields. The most critical of these themes is what leads to excellence in learning, well being and optimism levels. In publishing this symposium, we believe that our 18 authors offer pertinent reflections upon this valid question.

This 6th volume of the JIDR is devoted to a wide range of research themes, which are all linked to the concepts of management both implicitly and explicitly. In this issue we use a management lens to look at some fundamental questions societies face today, such as ethics, successful counselling for well-being at work, the age of digitalization in the banking industry, public policies - what matters, health and well-being and recovering from life threatening illness and lastly, gender imbalance in paid work globally. The discussions in these articles highlight several recurring and yet under-researched issues in these fields. In the coming year, it is our vision to have the JIDR continue to publish a combination of manuscripts related to the theme of diversity in international research

Devaluing Public Apologies in the Age of Social Media

In Devaluing Public Apologies in the Age of Social Media, Joshua M. Bentley argues that apologies are losing their meaning in American society as organizations and public figures treat them as strategical tools without considering their ethical implications. As the demand for apologies in the age of social media continues to increase exponentially, Bentley posits, the apologies that are given carry less and less weight to the public. This book examines how controversial figures like Donald Trump and Joe Rogan, as well as brands like Google and Bud Light, have addressed public controversies both effectively and ineffectively, illustrating how social media, polarization, and cancel culture are changing the way apologies are given and received. If apologies are to serve their historical role of resolving conflict peacefully, Bentley argues, they must be placed back into their proper ethical context. This book offers insight on how individuals and organizations can ensure their apologies reflect their authentic values. Scholars of communication, ethics, media studies, political science, and public relations will find it especially useful.

This book investigates why the rate of female labor force participation in the Middle East and North Africa is the lowest in the world. Using a multidisciplinary approach, the book explains that the primary reason for the low rate of female labor force participation is the strong institutions of patriarchy in the region. Using multiple proxies for patriarchy, this book quantifies the multi-dimensional concept of patriarchy in order to measure it across sixty developing countries over thirty years. The findings show that Middle Eastern and North African countries have higher levels of patriarchy with regards to women’s participation in public spheres compared with the rest of the world. Alt...

Mapping the Media and Communication Landscape of Central Asia

Central Asian post-independence media and communication industries, professional practices, education, persisting and evolving values, and traditions remain critically understudied with a notable scarcity of research and scholarly publications on the complex and increasingly changing communicative ecology landscape of this region. Mapping the Media and Communication Landscape of Central Asia: An Anthology of Emerging and Contemporary Issues addresses this gap in literature by exploring, analyzing, and shedding light to the field, practice, research and critical inquiry of media and mass communication in four countries in Central Asia—Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan. This book includes local authors as well as new and emerging researchers from this region to contextualize the issues explored and provide a supportive dialogue between different points of view.
