Imposed Morality
The book “Imposed Morality” is written from a multidisciplinary perspective and in this sense is totally different from other books dealing with human sexuality and particularly homosexuality. While other books usually present only one point of view such as medical, psychiatric, psychological, social or legal this book present a total and multidisciplinary view. It also includes a discussion of the present views of homosexuality both in the western countries as compared to some non-western societies which do not seem to take the many important aspects of this practice recently discussed and evaluated by western scientists in consideration, and continue to criminalize homosexuality leading to death sentences and executions of gay people or them being stoned publicly to death.

Multi-Disciplinary Approaches to Romany Studies
A collection of essays on a wide range of aspects of the Roma communities, cultures, social and political conditions across Europe.

Today the field is hemmed in by two different power fields: the emotionally understandable, though intellectually debilitating, concern to turn the plight of the Roma into a matter of human rights and the difficulty...
Exploring Social Sustainability and Economic Practices
Given the three pillars of sustainability, besides the environment, the interplay of social and economic dimensions provides valuable insight into how society is molded and the key components that should be considere. In terms of social sustainability, processes and framework objectives promote the wellbeing that is integral to the balance of people, planet, and profit. Economic practices consider the system of production, resource allocation, and distribution of goods and services with respect to demand and supply between economic agents. As a result, an economic system is a variant of the social system in which it exists. At present, the forefront of social sustainability research partially encompasses the impact of economic practices on people and society, with notable emphasis centered on the urban environment. Specific interdisciplinary analyses within the scope of sustainability, social development, competitiveness, and motivational management, as well as decision making within the urban landscape, are considered. This book contains nine thoroughly refereed contributions that interconnect detailed research into the two pillars reviewed.
