Power
In 2018, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) was, by most measures, more powerful than at any other time in its history and had become one of the most powerful countries in the world. Its economy faced serious challenges, including from the ongoing ‘trade war’ with the US, but still ranked as the world’s second largest. Its Belt and Road Initiative, meanwhile, continued to carve paths of influence and economic integration across several continents. A deft combination of policy, investment, and entrepreneurship has also turned the PRC into a global ‘techno-power’. It aims, with a good chance of success, at becoming a global science and technology leader by 2049 – one hundred ye...

In Volatile States in International Politics, Eleonora Mattiacci offers the first account of this issue that investigates which states have been volatile and why. Leveraging statistical techniques and archival data in a probing analysis of rivals and allies since the end of World War II, she rejects attempts at dismissing volatility as reflecting mercu...
Modern Virtue
Modern Virtue is the first book length treatment of Mary Wollstonecraft's theology and religion, the first to show the centrality of each for her account of the vrtues and revolution, and the first by a scholar in these fields. While Wollstonecraft is canonical in many other fields, she is mostly unknown or ignored in virtue ethics, theology, and religion. This book remedies this omission and the prevalent narratives sustained by it in the latter as well as predominant views of her religion and virtue in the former.

Reconciling the study of land and sea routes, and paying attention to themes such as material culture, environment, trade, and the role of religious...
