The Cannabis Social Club
As cannabis legalization reforms are underway, there is some concern that non-profit, ‘middle ground’ options may remain under-researched and thus less visible. This book offers an in-depth account of one of the possible ‘middle ground’ models for the supply of cannabis: the Cannabis Social Club. Cannabis Social Clubs (CSCs) are typically formal, non-profit associations of adult cannabis users who produce and distribute that substance close to or at cost price among themselves. They constitute an user-driven model for the supply of cannabis. In most jurisdictions, CSCs remain a grass roots, unregulated initiative of groups of users, but the model has been legalized in Uruguay and Mal...
Mozaïek en dynamiek van het lokaal gezinsbeleid in Vlaanderen.
Samen met het decreet preventieve gezinsondersteuning zetten lokale besturen meer en meer in op een Huis van het Kind. Lokale besturen hebben een coördinerende en beleidsmatige rol op het gebied van kinderopvang en ook in andere domeinen van het gezinsbeleid krijgen ze taken toegewezen vanuit het Vlaams en federaal niveau. Het gezinsbeleid in Vlaanderen is deels een decentraal beleid: lokale besturen dragen een groot deel van de verantwoordelijkheid. De interne staatshervorming moet ervoor zorgen dat de planlasten voor lokale besturen dalen. Deze evoluties vroegen om een onderzoek naar de tendensen in het lokale gezinsbeleid. In deze publicatie worden de resultaten van dit onderzoek bij lok...
Voorbij het eigen gelijk
Wat te denken van snelheidsduivels, sluikstorters en spookfietsers? Wat met al die verwensingen op sociale media? Waarom is er zoveel aandacht voor woke? Is er sprake van verharding en verruwing in gedrag en spraak? Moeten we ons zorgen maken over de manier waarop mensen hun vrijheidsrecht beleven? In 24 essays gaat François Levrau op deze en soortgelijke vragen in. Op heldere en intelligente wijze schetst hij de sociaal-morele structuur van de moderne samenleving. Hij beschrijft en analyseert daarbij de bestaansmodus van het ‘hoepelwezen’. Dat is het type mens dat in die samenleving opgang maakt en zich laat kennen door ‘Ik-bedwelming’ en ‘Ander-ontkenning’. Het hoepelwezen mee...
Policing in Europe
The Journal of Police Studies is a quarterly, which is oriented towards high standard, quality contributions on policing issues and phenomena that are of interest to the police. Topics are approached from a specialist and (if required) multidisciplinary point of view. The volume looks to answer questions regarding the developments of police and police cooperation in Europe at the supranational level as well as explore the reactions of police organizations in individual European countries to the process of transnationalisation in terms of the design of and philosophy within police organizations.
Foucault and Neoliberalism
Michel Foucault's death in 1984 coincided with the fading away of the hopes for social transformation that characterized the postwar period. In the decades following his death, neoliberalism has triumphed and attacks on social rights have become increasingly bold. If Foucault was not a direct witness of these years, his work on neoliberalism is nonetheless prescient: the question of liberalism occupies an important place in his last works. Since his death, Foucault's conceptual apparatus has acquired a central, even dominant position for a substantial segment of the world's intellectual left. However, as the contributions to this volume demonstrate, Foucault's attitude towards neoliberalism ...
Macromolecular Assemblies in Polymeric Systems
Presents a comprehensive, interdisciplinary discussion of macromolecular assemblies, from understanding biological phenomena to applications of macromolecular assemblies in biosensors, electrooptic devices, and liquid crystals. Gives insights on the fabrication of ultrathin polymeric films and examines polymeric materials that can spontaneously assemble into structures in solution or at interfaces. Emphasizes the use of polymers in macromolecular assemblies over low molecular weight organic materials. Also reviews monolayers and multilayer films, three dimensional systems, scanning probe microscopy of macromolecular assemblies, and polymers and liquid crystals.

Beyond Neoliberalism
This book explores how changes that occurred around 1989 shaped the study of the social sciences, and scrutinizes the impact of the paradigm of neoliberalism in different disciplinary fields. The contributors examine the ways in which capitalism has transmuted into a seemingly unquestionable, triumphant framework that globally articulates economics with epistemology and social ontology. The volume also investigates how new narratives of capitalism are being developed by social scientists in order to better understand capitalism’s ramifications in various domains of knowledge. At its heart, Beyond Neoliberalism seeks to unpack and disaggregate neoliberalism, and to take readers beyond the analytical limitations that a traditional framework of neoliberalism entails. This book is a result of discussions at and support from the Irmgard Coninx Fundation.
