This book provides valuable insights for journalists and scholars about news business models, audience research, misinformation, diversity and inclusivity, and news philanthropy, offering journalists a guide to what they need to know and a call to action forwhat kind of research journalism scholars can do to best help the news industry reckon with disruption.

As a system of thought that values human needs and experiences over supernatural concerns, humanism has gained greater attention amid the rapidly shifting demographics of religious communities. This outlook has taken on global dimensions, with activists, artists, and thinkers forming a humanistic response not only to religion, but to the pressing social and political issues of the 21st century. The Oxford Handbook of Humanism aims to explore the subject byanalyzing its history, its philosophical development, and its influence on culture. It will also discuss humanism as a global phenomenon-an approach that has often been neglected in more Western-focused works.

Making a Case: The Practical Roots of Biblical Law challenges the long-held notion that Israelite and Judahite scribes either made use of "old" law collections or set out to produce law collections in the Near Eastern sense of the genre. Sara J. Milstein instead proposes that what we call "biblical law" is closer in form and function to another, oft-neglected Mesopotamian genre: legal-pedagogical texts. During their education, Mesopotamian scribes studied avariety of legal-oriented school texts: sample contracts, fictional cases, sequences of non-canonical law, and legal phrasebooks. When Exodus 20-23 and Deuteronomy 12-26 are viewed in the context of these legal-pedagogical texts from Mesopotamia, their practical roots in comparable (lost) legal exercisesbegin to emerge.

Philosophers have not appreciated how pervasive and deep division of labor is, and consequently they have not noticed the many intellectual devices deployed in managing it. The Great Endarkenment makes the case that those devices are central pieces of puzzles that have traditionally been on philosophers' agendas.

Controversies over how to define the word "religion" have persisted for decades, culminating in those who now choose to study the word itself and not just what it is said to name. What is Religion?: Debating the Academic Study of Religion invites readers to eavesdrop on scholarly debates over the limits of, and uses for, a word commonly used but infrequently defined in a precise manner. This volume takes the temperature of the modern field of ReligiousStudies by inviting a diverse group of international scholars to offer their own substantive contribution that builds on the shared opening prompt, "Religion is...".

This book offers a cutting-edge, cross-disciplinary analysis of how the explosive spread of pornography contributes to violence against women, including prostitution, while presenting a political and legal theory on how to effectively stop it. It guides the reader through fifty years of significant empirical research on the harms, including a vast array of different studies illuminating pornography's powerful impact on men, a majority of whom consume it. In acomparative analysis of legal challenges in Canada, Sweden, and the United States, it demonstrates why civil rights, not criminal laws, can empower those hurt, subordinated, and exploited while efficiently dismantling the sex industry, consistent with free speech guarantees.

The Kantian project of achieving perpetual peace among states seems (at best) an unfulfilled hope. Modern states' authority claims and their exercise of power and sovereignty span a spectrum: from the most stringently and explicitly codified-the constitutional level-to the most fluid and turbulent-acts of war. The Public Uses of Coercion and Force investigates both these individual extremes and also their relationship. Using Arthur Ripstein's recent workKant and the Law of War as a focal point, this book explores this connection through the lens of the (just) war theory and its relationship to the law.

Practical suggestions and vignettes demonstrate how to briefly and effectively incorporate key concepts from a variety of therapeutic orientations.

In The Origins of Overthrow, Payam Ghalehdar offers a novel explanation for a puzzling phenomenon in US foreign policy: forcible regime change. The 2003 invasion of Iraq shows that the costs of regime change in terms of blood and treasure can far exceed its benefits for the United States. Yet, the US has repeatedly engaged in overthrowing foreign leaders and regimes. This book explains why and argues that the emotional state of US presidents sheds light onUS regime change decisions.
