The Ashgate Research Companion to Moral Panics
The Ashgate Research Companion to Moral Panics offers a comprehensive assemblage of cutting-edge critical and theoretical perspectives on the concept of moral panic. All chapters represent original research by many of the most influential theorists and researchers now working in the area of moral panic, including Nachman Ben-Yehuda and Erich Goode, Joel Best, Chas Critcher, Mary deYoung, Alan Hunt, Toby Miller, Willem Schinkel, Kenneth Thompson, Sheldon Ungar, and Grazyna Zajdow. Chapters come from a range of disciplines, including media studies, literary studies, history, legal studies, and sociology, with significant new elaborations on the concept of moral panic (and its future), informed and powerful critiques, and detailed empirical studies from several continents. A clear and comprehensive survey of a concept that is increasingly influential in a number of disciplines as well as in popular culture, this collection of the latest research in the field addresses themes including the evolution of the moral panic concept, sex panics, media panics, moral panics over children and youth, and the future of the moral panic concept.
Temporalidades contemporáneas, incluido el pasado en el presente
Quizás, en lo hodierno, en su acelerado desarrollo tecnológico y su ambigua relación con la cultura contemporánea, se geste una revolución latente: una reconsideración radical del sentido del tiempo. Un cambio que, por su complejidad y sus alcances, no debe describirse desde una perspectiva única sino desde la confluencia de miradas transdisciplinares surgidas de diferentes campos de investigación. Aún en el diagnóstico centenario de indeterminación que nos afecta, este Cuaderno ofrece un entramado de reflexiones sobre lo temporal que, abarcando desde la sociología hasta la matemática y la filosofía, desde el arte a la antropología, la literatura y la arquitectura, perfilan un atlas para actualizar y reforzar el horizonte de lo patrimonial en nuestro presente.
El territorio como "demo" : demo(a)grafías, demo(a)cracias y epidemias
Tres argumentos-clave son recorridos por este libro coral, donde investigadores de la Red de Estudios Socioespaciales (RESE), debaten distintos trabajos de investigación, en términos espaciales y desde miradas críticas, a partir de una negativa propositiva, para poner a disposición de otros especialistas, pero sin duda de la sociedad en general, los desencajes y subsunciones del Espacio respecto al Tiempo, Demo(a)cracias, Demo(a)grafía y Epidemias epitomizan, con los desarrollos aquí propuestos, tres factores de nuestro presente, con un cuarto añadido
«Con assoluta sincerità»
«Con assoluta sincerità»: così Natalia Ginzburg è intervenuta nel suo lavoro redazionale per la casa editrice Einaudi. Attraverso i documenti dell’Archivio Einaudi di Torino e dell’Archivio del Novecento della Sapienza, questo libro racconta il lavoro editoriale di Ginzburg nel secondo dopoguerra, quando ha avuto maggiori responsabilità editoriali e ha coordinato la traduzione della Recherche. I carteggi con gli autori e i traduttori restituiscono un profilo inedito della scrittrice, portando alla luce la rilevanza del suo intervento sulle collane di narrativa, dai “Coralli” ai “Gettoni”; l’interazione tra i mestieri di scrittrice, redattrice e traduttrice, da cui emergono elementi di poetica ricorrenti; e le questioni implicate dall’essere l’unica donna ad avere un ruolo decisionale nella redazione Einaudi del tempo.
Through the Labyrinth
"At the heart of the authors' analysis is the metaphor they propose to replace the outdated idea of the glass ceiling: the labyrinth. This new concept better captures the varied challenges that women face as they navigate indirect, complex, and often discontinuous paths toward leadership."--BOOK JACKET.
Photodynamic Therapy
Today, in the face of resistant microorganisms, aggressive cancers unresponsive to conventional treatments, and the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for advanced and innovative protocols for combating and treating disease is paramount. This book presents basic concepts of photodynamic therapy along with data from clinical research on its use in treating oncologic and other diseases. It also presents innovative strategies in photodynamic therapy, including information on polymer nanoparticles. This book was prepared with great care and by many valuable hands so that we can expand the dissemination of Photodynamic Therapy, as well as motivate for new research.
