Synopsis
This book contains an Open Access chapter
Scholarship in management and strategy is paying increasing attention to the domain of aesthetics. Companies routinely make
aesthetic choices and there is growing recognition that aesthetic considerations are fundamental for successful performance in
competitive markets. Stylistically sophisticated products may appeal to demanding customers, yielding higher profit margins. Style
and beauty can also be applied toward enriching organizational cultures, informing leadership visions or motivating employees to
defy conventions in designing new products.
Aesthetics and Style in Strategy constitutes the first systematic survey of the interface between the aesthetic and strategic domains.
Motivated by the rise of aestheticism in contemporary culture, it lays the foundations for an “aesthetic” turn in strategy, which
interrogates the use of aesthetic features as a source of competitive advantage and provides examples of connecting design and
engineering, style and technology. The “aesthetic turn” is not simply about creating value, but about sharing value among employees
and infusing organizational activities with a purpose that transcends principles of efficiency.
Volume 42 of Advances in Strategic Management documents the variety of ways in which the useful and the beautiful can be
brought together, making a valuable contribution to the sustainability of business in the 21st century.

Synopsis
It has been well chronicled that Black professors have experienced a long history of inequities and inequalities within the academic
space. This volume explores the experiences, challenges and triumphs experienced by Black professors.
Including personal essays written by Black professors, this volume showcases personal insights and inspirational stories from leading
Black scholars across the US. It highlights and problematizes the uncomfortable truth of the lack of diversity in many higher
education institutions in order to further discussions on the topic of race in academia, and to assist academics of color in preparing
for their careers. Future academics will gain a sense of how to launch their careers, stay productive in research, teaching and service,
and avoid the racial-related malaise that can hinder new academics of color.

By presenting discussions on professional development, and emphasizing the challenges and triumphs experienced by Black
professors across disciplines, this book provides advice for junior Black scholars on how to navigate academe and tackle the
challenges that Black scholars often face.

Synopsis
Black Metal, Trauma, Subjectivity and Sound: Screaming the Abyss weaves together trauma, black metal performance and disability
into a story of both pain and freedom. Drawing on her years as a black metal guitarist, Jasmine Hazel Shadrack uses
autoethnography to explore her own experiences of gender-based violence, misogyny, and the healing power of performance.
This profoundly personal book offers a detailed explanation of autoethnography, followed by a careful exposition of the relationship
between metal and gender, considering - among other things - how women are engaged with by metal music culture. After
examining the various waves of black metal and how this has impacted black metal theory, the book moves on to consider female
performers and performance as catharsis, including a discussion of the author's work as guitarist and vocalist with the black metal
band Denigrata and her alter-ego, the 'antlered priestess' Denigrata Herself. The book concludes with some thoughts on acquired
disability, freedom and peace.
The book includes a foreword from eminent gender researcher Rosemary Lucy Hill, a guest section from metal scholar Amanda
DiGioia, an epilogue from Rebecca Lamont-Jiggens (a legal pracademic specialising in disability), suggestions of sources of help for
those in abusive relationships and further reading for those wishing to learn more about black metal theory.

Synopsis
The Bologna Process is one of the most well-known and influential European projects for cooperation in the field of higher
education. Through an in-depth examination of higher education actors and policy instruments in the case of the implementation of
Bologna in Ukraine, this book aims to analyse the process of the Bologna reform in Ukraine and investigate Bologna as a case of
Europeanisation in the post-Soviet context.

Collating findings that suggest that the Bologna reform in Ukraine has been developing primarily as an interrelationship between
policy continuity and change, the author demonstrates how the old practices and new innovations in Bologna have experienced a
layered interaction and a form of policy learning by which the old and new intertwine. Viewing this process as a gradual, somewhat
messy and creative build-up of minor innovations by different higher education actors, this book showcases how the accumulation
of these innovations led to more fundamental changes, and the beginning of the emergence of a more shared method of higher
education policy-making in contrast to the previously centrally governed Ukraine. In turn shedding light on the broader process of
Europeanisation in the post-Soviet context, this book reveals a process by which change and the continuity are not mutually
exclusive, but rather closely interconnected.

Synopsis
The concept of the business model has become very popular in the strategy and innovation literature's. Recent research has
acknowledged its cognitive underpinnings, its status as a mental construct, and has highlighted how managers’ cognitive and social
sense-making patterns influence business model design and how shared logics enable innovation. Yet, the specific cognitive
underpinnings of business models, though often mentioned, are rarely explicitly studied.
Business Models and Cognition addresses this gap by focusing directly on intersections between business model studies and
cognitive studies. Gathering an international, multidisciplinary team of business model and cognition scholars, this book not only
identifies surprising connections between these two existing literature's, but also offers new reflections on future avenues of
research for both in order to explore the cognitive foundations of business modelling.
 For its interdisciplinary scope, scholarly rigor, and novel insights, this fourth volume of the New Horizons in Managerial and
Organizational Cognition is a must-read for scholars and students of business, strategy and cognition, and it is of keen interest to
executives and managers eager to reflect critically on their own understanding of the “business model” as a concept.

Synopsis
This collection is a unique exploration of the heritage and legacy of the Canterbury Sound: a signature style emerging in the 1960s
that draws upon psychedelic music, progressive rock, jazz and pop to capture the real and imagined interactions between people,
place and music.
The volume recounts the stories, and explores the significance, of the Canterbury Sound as heritage, ongoing legacy and scene.
Originating from the experiences and ethnographic research of the three editors, all of whom have lived and worked in Canterbury,
the book brings together reflections, stories, and critical insights from well-known musicians, researchers, DIY archivists and fans to
explore the Canterbury Sound as an inter-generational phenomenon and a source of cultural identity. Associated with acts like
Caravan, early Soft Machine, Robert Wyatt, and Kevin Ayers, this romanticised scene has a special place in popular music culture.
Chapters examine the emergence of the Canterbury Sound and the associated scene, including the legacies of key figures in
forming the Canterbury Sound aesthetic, the documentation of the scene (online and off) and contemporary scenes within the city,
which continues to attract and inspire young people.

Synopsis
Over the past half of a century, Chinese societies have undergone a tremendous amount of social, political, and economic change,
which have also been a catalyst for substantial shifts in fundamental structures and processes within Chinese families. This edited
collection focuses on the continuities and changes in gender and intergenerational relations of Chinese families in Greater China.

Paying close attention to families in Greater China, including the People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, the authors
address a wide array of topics, including marriage patterns, cohabitation, rural-urban variations in family structures, fertility
aspirations, spousal relationships and marital quality, and more. Collectively, the chapters point to the dynamic, diverse, and evolving
nature of Chinese families, and also provide considerable insight into their future trajectories.

Synopsis
Circular Economy in Developed and Developing Countries: Perspective, Methods And Examples discusses practical examples of
formation of circular economy in the developed and developing world. Special attention is paid to the experiences of modern Russia
in formation of circular economy, as Russia holds a unique position in the system of international classification of countries of the
world, possessing the features of developed and developing economies.

The authors seek the goal of helping develop a new approach to research, founded on the idea that ecological crisis is proof of the
necessity for formation of circular economy. Methods of formation are offered based on the determined peculiarities and common
regularities, where imbalance of developed and developing countries is overcome and the threat to ecological crises is reduced.
Aimed at academics of world economics, circular economy and macro-economics, Circular Economy in Developed and Developing
Countries provides development of the theory and methodology, as well as the practice for understanding circular economy
formation.

Synopsis
In light of a history of legislative actions in the United States to encourage collaborative R&D, this book characterizes U.S.
collaborative R&D through the eyes of the National Research Joint Venture Database.
Facilitating a fresh statistical look at collaborative R&D as a purposive strategy in the light of existing public policies, this book also
provides a critical evaluation of the effectiveness of those attendant policies. Through an original project-based micro database, the
author reveals the patterns of competitive behavior associated with collaborative R&D. Accompanied by follow-up statistical and
econometric analyses, readers are not only confronted with what might be the most complete picture of U.S. collaborative R&D to
date, but they are also provided with key indications of the effectiveness of U.S. legislative actions which is set to inspire further
collaborations in research.

Synopsis
Despite their broad scope and importance, publications related to public sector accounting and auditing have a limited framework,
and do not account for the significant variances in public sector accounting and auditing systems between countries and different
subsectors of government. The editors of this book have filled this gap by compiling a collection that combines different aspects of
public sector accounting and auditing within a single book.
Pooling together existing public sector accounting and auditing practices between countries and preparing a comparative analysis
of those practices, the authors analyze the role of the public sector accounting and auditing holistically, and provide a platform to
enable financially sustainable policy making and proper assessment of the relevance of accounting frameworks across the globe.
The chapters chronicle the strength and weakness of public sector accounting, auditing and systems, and also critically examine the
approaches, recording methods, and international regulations which determine how they operate.

Providing a comprehensive account which brings a wide range of countries to the forefront in terms of both comparability and
accountability, this study shines a light on the differences in accounting systems between states, and provides timely and accurate
information to equip readers to minimize those differences.

Synopsis
Financial distress in corporations is a frequent phenomenon, particularly during times of national and international economic crises;
but this can be used as an opportunity and incentive to implement a systematic process of reorganization and revitalization of a
business. These plans for recovery can lead to future successes and sustainability rather than just a fix to ensure survival of the
business. Crises, if managed promptly from a strategic point of view, can lead to pragmatic changes and bring new value to the
company, avoiding market foreclosure and the negative social consequences.

Corporate Financial Distress, Restructuring and Turnaround identifies a recovery plan, monitoring, deployment and provides tools to
direct economic crises towards financial success in the future and financial stability in the short term. An analysis scheme has been
developed and is provided to help measure economic, financial and strategic performance with the why, how and what in relation to
the recovery plan. A model for the detection and evaluation of the economic-financial performance implemented by an execution of
a recovery plan and a set of indicators for evaluating the variables activated by the process of strategic change are identified.
Tron uses alert analysis perspective to examine crises and recovery in business to outline discontinuity with the past in order to
address strategic organizational changes and lead the financial process of rehabilitation towards success.

Synopsis
Curating the contributions of Twitter users via hashtags, crowd-sourced syllabi respond to evolving crises and critical questions in
real time, resulting in living materials for educators, scholars and students. This book showcases how crowd-sourced syllabi are
filling a gap in educational efficacy by providing access to forgotten, hidden, unsanctioned and unpopular resources.

Recognising that educational institutions are no longer able to provide the timely and critical response to emergent situations that
punctuate the everyday, Leanne McRae invites readers to re-assess the tools and frames that determine how meaning is made, and
consider how by rethinking the way that syllabi are constructed, we might resist the limitations of our curriculums. By reading this
book we learn how the crowd-sourced syllabus cultivates possibilities for a double refusal – the refusal to be dominated, as well as a
refusal to dominate.

This book is insightful reading for teachers, scholars and students who are interested in how to utilise, contribute to, and circulate
the crowd-sourced syllabus in order to deepen the range, type and immediacy of resources available to us.

Synopsis
Propelled by pressing demands for particular forms of citizenship and pressure to boost economic competiveness, in the context of
profound social, political and technological changes, recent global trends in education have included the emergence of new forms
of curriculum policy. Addressing a gap in the literature, this book investigates the ways in which curriculum policy is influenced,
formulated, and enacted in a number of countries-cases in Europe, amidst such global dynamics.

Exploring curriculum policy and practice across the European geopolitical context, this important collection uses the concept of
‘curriculum making’ as an analytical tool to explore the processes and phases of curriculum policy reform experienced across
countries. Drawing first on international perspectives and then presenting a series of country case studies, written by internationally
recognised curriculum specialists, the chapters utilize a common conceptual framework for understanding curriculum making as an
activity that occurs across multiple layers of educational systems.
By mobilizing the concept of curriculum making, the editors uncover how practices emerge from a continual interplay of the global
and local. Concluding with a comparative analysis of the contextual factors that shape curricular practices in different contexts, this
book is a must-have resource for educational policy makers and researchers across the globe.

Synopsis
In Disability Alliances and Allies: Opportunities and Challenges, Allison Carey, Joan Ostrove and Tara Fannon have gathered an
interdisciplinary team of leading experts, to offer nuanced analyses of the meaning and practice of being an ally and of building
effective alliances that account for the structural, individual, and interpersonal challenges involved in amplifying disabled voices and
centering the disability lived experience.
The first section of this volume addresses cooperation and conflict in advocacy and activism across social movements,
organizations, and institutions. It examines the formation of new alliances, what happens when interests collide, and the social and
economic challenges of forming coherent unions. The second section engages issues of agency, autonomy, and identity in
interpersonal relationships, highlighting the role of power and status, focusing on alliance dynamics between disabled and non-
disabled people.
For its breadth and depth of research, this volume of Research in Social Science and Disability is essential reading for researchers and
students across the social sciences interested in disability, social movements, activism, and identity.

Synopsis
This volume in Advances in Econometrics showcases fresh methodological and empirical research on the econometrics of
networks. Comprising both theoretical, empirical and policy papers, the authors bring together a wide range of perspectives to
facilitate a dialogue between academics and practitioners for better understanding this groundbreaking field and its role in policy
discussions.
This edited collection includes thirteen chapters which covers various topics such as identification of network models, network
formation, networks and spatial econometrics and applications of financial networks. Readers can also learn about network models
with different types of interactions, sample selection in social networks, trade networks, stochastic dynamic programming in space,
spatial panels, survival and networks, financial contagion, spillover effects, interconnectedness on consumer credit markets and a
financial risk meter.
The topics covered in the book, centered on the econometrics of data and models, are a valuable resource for graduate students
and researchers in the field. The collection is also useful for industry professionals and data scientists due its focus on theoretical
and applied works.

Synopsis
Development projects, nearly always all hope and optimism at their inception, have often failed to maintain their impetus and impact
in the long run. This is usually because they have failed from the outset to account for how imbalances of power, legacies of
colonialism and global wealth inequalities can hamper their staying power. These hurdles have only become greater in the wake of
Covid-19.

Drawing on over twenty-seven years of experience on both the front lines and the corporate and business sides of international
development, Raif Shwayri offers practical models for navigating the major structural and strategic problems currently facing the
workers and organizations who strive to make significant, long-lasting changes in developing countries. Shwayri’s new models
emerge from his unique insights into the limitations of common approaches to structuring and monitoring initiatives, and they
emphasize the crucial importance of vocational education, collaboration with business, and higher education and research for
keeping an organization fresh and focussed.
 For its combination of industry-level analysis with insights gained from a wealth of personal professional experience, Economically
Sustainable Development is a must-read not only for researchers in international development, but also for policymakers and
practitioners struggling to come to terms with the state of an industry in a time of global economic crisis.

Synopsis
Although it is vital that the incorporation of ICT into academic culture is effective and lasting, the very nature of higher education,
with its long ties to tradition and academic values, does not lend itself easily to emerging ICT strategies. This book asks how we, as
educators, can shift mind-sets, practices, policies, and attitudes in higher education in order to serve society and meet the
educational needs of today.
Tackling the critical question of how to manage knowledge for value creation in the higher education environment, the authors draw
attention to smart ICT use for knowledge creation and sharing. Serving up a mixture of case studies, examples, questions and tools,
they also deliver insights on the human element involved in both ICT and higher education. By providing a conceptual model for
implementing Knowledge 4.0 in educational environments, this book ultimately facilitates a dialogue within higher education
institutions that brings forth emerging practices and examples of cultural adaptation.
Confronting the idea that innovation brings chaos to institutions steeped in tradition, this edited collection is a must-have guide for
those interested effecting technological change in educational environments while also sustaining academic quality and delivering
meaningful learning outcomes.

Synopsis
The role of the manufacturing sector in the overall development of an economy can never be undermined. In an emerging economy
like India, the role of the manufacturing sector is even more critical. As a source of employment, hub of technological progress, and
an accelerator of output growth in other sectors, it is paramount that the manufacturing firms are resilient to cope with the
challenges posed by the dynamic business environment of today.

This book explores the role of microeconomic and macroeconomic factors in determining the level of efficiency, profitability and the
stock market performance of the firms in the Indian manufacturing sector. Focusing specifically on the post-reform era, the authors
take stock of the inherent distinctive characteristics of the different sectors across the manufacturing industry, which are
understandably different. Emphasizing the changing scenario of the manufacturing sector under different policy regimes, and
providing access to critical information, this book equips readers to understand how prudent, and informed, managerial decisions
are made. It is a go-to reference book in comprehending the real issues of the manufacturing sector in the changing Indian
environment, and a useful resource for students and researchers of commerce, management, economics, and the wider field of
business studies.
