Europe's Crisis of Legitimacy
This volume examines the interrelationship between democratic legitimacy at the European level and the ongoing Eurozone crisis that began in 2010. Europe's crisis of legitimacy stems from 'governing by rules and ruling by numbers' in the sovereign debt crisis, which played havoc with the eurozone economy while fueling political discontent. Using the lens of democratic theory, the book assesses the legitimacy of EU governing activities first in terms of their procedural quality ('throughput), ' by charting EU actors' different pathways to legitimacy, and then evaluates their policy effectiveness ('output') and political responsiveness ('input'). In addition to an engaging and distinctive analysis of Eurozone crisis governance and its impact on democratic legitimacy, the book offers a number of theoretical insights into the broader question of the functioning of the EU and supranational governance more generally. It concludes with proposals for how to remedy the EU's problems of legitimacy, reinvigorate its national democracies, and rethink its future.
New Perspectives on Hispanic Caribbean Studies
What are the main contributions of Hispanic cultural products and practices today? This book is a collection of essays on new critical trends in Hispanic Caribbean thinking. It offers an update on the state of Hispanic Caribbean studies through the discussion of diverse theoretical perspectives around notions of affect, archipelagic thinking, deterritoriality, and queer experiences and subjectivities. These eccentric Caribbean and aquatic imaginaries move beyond those that are circumscribed by identity, nation, insularity, and the colonial epistemologies derived from these conceptions. Due to its cultural and historical specificities, the Hispanic Caribbean constitutes a focus of study crucial to re-thinking global dynamics today.

Launching While Female
An exposé of the gender gap in entrepreneurship and a road map for a more inclusive and economically successful future for us all Journalist and professor Susanne Althoff investigates the obstacles women and nonbinary entrepreneurs—especially those of color—face when launching, funding, and growing their companies, obstacles that persist because the current start-up world was engineered by and for white men.

Antevastatio Militis
Isolated from the modern world by thousands of kilometers of bright blue Pacific Ocean, the quaint little Chilean island of La Desesperacion had been a perfect haven for those who sought escape from the mind-numbing pace of urban progress and treasured the unmolested ivory beaches and pristine emerald scenery of the remote getaway. For the local townsfolk of San Sebastian, however, the island was merely home; the place where they eked out a living, stove off advancement, and fabricated tales of legendary status. The island had other plans.Lurking far beneath the surface was a diabolical monster of geological proportions. One that sank ships, ridiculed science, and tested the faith of true believers as it held the entire population of La Desesperacion within its fiery grasp. Then there was the volcano.The Good Earth? Hell.
