Shoulder to Shoulder

In the six years since The Men’s Sheds Movement book in 2015, the Movement has broadened to include many other nations and also Women’s Sheds, encompassing almost 3,000 Sheds worldwide to 2021. Shoulder to Shoulder: Broadening the Men’s Shed Movement shines a light on the transformational experiences and positive impact that Sheds have had on the lives, health and wellbeing of men, women, families and communities. The book’s many powerful Men’s and Women’s Shed case studies highlight how shared, hands-on social activity by ‘shedders’ can reduce the potentially destructive forces of loneliness and social isolation, even during a global pandemic. It’s about the universal value of “having somewhere to go, something to do, and someone to talk with,” as envisaged in the very first Australian Men’s Shed in 1998. Informative, insightful, easy to read and carefully researched, Shoulder to Shoulder provides a well-documented tour de force of this globally expanding and broadening international movement.

Sport Media Vectors: Gender and Diversity, Reconstructing the Field

In this book, Walzak, Collura and Vidotto bring together an invited collection of writing from emerging scholars about sports, sports media and equity. We are excited about this work as authors span from undergraduates and Masters students to doctoral candidates from Canada and Ireland. All of us are passionate and excited about the possibilities for equity and radical change that needs to happen across the sports and sports media landscape to make sports truly equitable. This collection reflects the author's personal investments and interest in sports. Chapter themes include racialized sports women, media inequities in women's sports including basketball, soccer and swimming, and personal narratives of disability in sport.

In the edited collection "Dark sides of sport", leading international scholars explore multifaceted historical and contemporary challenges for sport. The book includes historical case studies, overviews on specific challenges and conceptual frameworks to explore various threats for sport. Selected topics covered in the book are governance, doping, terrorism, gender testing, sustainability and nationalism. Whilst those aspects have been covered individually by previous research, "Dark sides of sport" provides an insightful overview on threats to sport that allows for the identification of similarities and differences. Therewith, the book attempts to contribute to a better understanding of present political and economic actions within the international sport system. Hence, academics and students from the fields of sport history, sport sociology, sport policy and sport management might find great interest in the book.

The National Health Service, or NHS, is the United Kingdom’s national healthcare system. It oversees the public’s health and ensures the medical wellbeing of the population of the UK. Governance network processes are complex because of the different nature of agendas and strategies of actors involved in health, but increasingly, because of the link between social and healthcare delivery, recent initiatives to provide a joined up or integrated approach have been presented. However, the extent of joined-up governance processes in the National Health Service is rather uneven. So far, reforms to try to improve the running of the NHS through the introduction of market mechanisms or increased ...

Global Intellectual Property Protection and New Constitutionalism

  • Categories: Law

The constitutionalization of intellectual property law is often framed as a benign and progressive integration of intellectual property with fundamental rights. Yet this is not a full or even an adequate picture of the ongoing constitutionalization processes affecting IP. This collection of essays, written by international experts and covering a range of different areas of intellectual property law, takes a broader approach to the process. Drawing on constitutional theory, and particularly on ideas of "new constitutionalism", the chapters engage with the complex array of contemporary legal constraints on intellectual property law-making. Such constraints arising in international intellectual...

"This reader presents a collection of several essays highlighting different aspects of the urban condition. Contributions range from chapters that use literature to explore the city to chapters that focus on specific aspects like, for example, urban shopping malls or different types of maps that may be used to visualize structure and dynamic flows in the metropolitan context. It also contains chapters that critically discuss problematic trends including fortification and monitoring of urban space. The collection also includes chapters that deal with morphological questions related to urban growth and development. It also features contributions that focus on the urban poor and their experience of living in the city. This book is a great starting point to explore the metropolis and to critically reflect about specific challenges large urban agglomerations are facing in many parts of the world"--
