Minority Rights, Feminism and International Law
Investigating minority and indigenous women’s rights in Muslim-majority states, this book critically examines the human rights regime within international law. Based on extensive and diverse ethnographic research on Amazigh women in Morocco, the book unpacks and challenges generally accepted notions of rights and equality. Significantly, and controversially, the book challenges the supposedly ‘emancipatory’ power vested in the human rights project; arguing that rights-based discourses are sites of contestation for different groups that use them to assert their agency in society. More specifically, it shows how the very conditions that make minority and indigenous women instrumental to ...
Feminist Designer
A bold and timely collection that brings feminist theory and critical thinking to life through vital, approachable design methods and practices. Feminist Designer brings together a constellation of voices and perspectives to examine the intersection of design and feminist theory. For decades, the feminist refrain within design has hinged on the representation and inclusion of women in the field. This collection, edited by Alison Place, however, is a call to move beyond this narrow application. Feminist design is not just about who does design—it is about how we do design and why. Feminist frameworks for design activism are now more relevant than ever, as they emphasize collaborative proces...

A rich, inclusive, contemporary, and global look at design diversity, past and present, through essays, interviews, and images curated by design educator and advocate Kaleena Sales.

Feminisms and Internationalism
This book addresses the theme of the history of internationalism in feminist theory and praxis, covering such topics as the historical concept of internationalism within feminism and women's movements; the nature of historical shifts within feminist movements, and challenges to internationalism within feminism by women of colour and by women from colonised or formerly colonised countries.
Religion, Law, and COVID-19 in Europe
Religion, Law, and COVID-19 in Europe investigates how the pandemic and the subsequent legal restrictions on collective activities influenced religious life in the region. The 19 in-depth country case studies combine legal and sociological analyses and reflect the plurality of religious and secular contexts. They detail how the pandemic curbed the collective aspects of religion and how the religious communities adapted, especially via innovations in online religion and new forms of religious leadership. The volume looks at how ordinary devotees’ religious behaviours changed during the pandemic and reveals shifts in religion–state interactions. In so doing, it shows how the pandemic chall...
BOA - Opera the Easy Way
If you are an aspiring opera singer looking to make a career in the industry, this book is for you. If you are an educator who needs a refresher on the German market, this book is for you. If you have heard Germany is a great place for opera, and want to know more, this book is for you. If you haven’t heard that Germany is the best place to work as an opera singer, this book is for you. When I studied singing, my teacher asked me to teach fellow students “how to get an agent”, as I had early success. I think this should be core curriculum, not student supplemented learning. I want you to be prepared for the German opera scene. I founded several academies to share this knowledge, most recently Berlin Opera Academy and Saluzzo Opera Academy. Now I am sharing this again in more detail here in these pages. Success in Germany, the world’s largest opera market, should be taught, not stumbled upon. So if you want to know how to make the most of your auditions, and get a lot of them, read on.
