The Unforeseeable
Jess Perkins is young, in high school and living an ordinary life until the arrival of a handsome new teacher, Mr Thompson. Upon Mr Thompson’s arrival life takes a peculiar turn, as this new teacher has a somewhat perturbing past. With his new neighbours and colleagues unaware of his past, can this man find solace in this new neighbourhood and in the new life he is trying to create for himself? Jess’ life, however, isn’t without its disturbances either. Like most teenage girls, she is so absorbed in her own life that she has no idea what is heading her way. What ensues is not the stuff of dreams as she might have hoped but more like the stuff of nightmares.

Zero Hours and On-call Work in Anglo-Saxon Countries
This book focuses on zero hours and on-call work as an extreme form of casual and precarious employment. It includes country studies of the USA, Canada, Australia, the UK, New Zealand and Ireland, where there has been increasing concern about the prevalence of such work, and working time uncertainty, as well as varying levels of public policy debate on regulation. The book incorporates a comparative review of zero hours work based on the findings of the country studies. This pays particular attention to state regulatory responses to zero hours work, and incorporates the sociological concepts of accumulation and legitimation functions of the state.

Are Trade Unions Still Relevant?
This edited collection examines the relevance of trade unions 100 years on from the 1913 Lockout in Dublin. The general argument underpinning the papers in this book is that trade unions are still relevant in the 21st century, since they provide an independent collective representation for workers and address the power imbalance between the worker and employer. All of the chapter authors are based at the Department of Personnel and Employment Relations, Kemmy Business School, University of Limerick. The chapters are grouped under three broad headings: The demand for trade unions in the 21st century; partnership at work and the legal context of union recognition; and case studies dealing with union organising and recognition campaigns This book provides a focus on an area not covered in any detailed way by any comparable text book.It will be of interest to undergraduates and postgraduates in the area of employment relations and to practioners such as trade union officials and human resource managers.In addition it will be of interest to a wider body of academics internationally who wish to understand trade unions in Ireland for comparative purposes.
Working in the Context of Austerity
Austerity was presented as the antidote to sluggish economies, but it has had far-reaching effects on jobs and employment conditions. With an international team of editors and authors from Europe, North America and Australia, this illuminating collection goes beyond a sole focus on public sector work and uniquely covers the impact of austerity on work across the private, public and voluntary spheres. Drawing on a range of perspectives, the book engages with the major debates surrounding austerity and neoliberalism, providing grounded analysis of the everyday experience of work and employment.
The Flower and the Frozen Sea
This anthology builds on the promise of Michelle O'Sullivan's prizewinning debut. In what is already a recognisable style - short, intense lyrics, often comprising brief lines - her senses focus on the natural world, before detonating surprising realisations.
Colonial Paradigms of Violence
European Holocaust Studies (EHS) publishes key international research results on the murder of the European Jews and its wider contexts. In recent years, scholars have rediscovered Hannah Arendt`s "boomerang thesis" – the "coming home" of European colonialism as genocide on European soil – as well as Raphael Lemkin`s work around his definition of genocide and the importance of its colonial dimensions. Germany and other European states are increasingly engaging in debates on comparing the Holocaust to other genocides and cases of mass killing, memorialization, "decolonization" and attempts to come to terms with the past ("Vergangenheitsbewältigung").
