    Rethinking Interdisciplinarity across the Social Sciences and Neurosciences (2021)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: This book offers a provocative account of interdisciplinary research across the neurosciences, social sciences and humanities. Setting itself against standard accounts of interdisciplinary 'integration,' and rooting itself in the authors' own experiences, the book establishes a radical agenda for collaboration across these disciplines. Rethinking Interdisciplinarity does not merely advocate interdisciplinary research, but attends to the hitherto tacit pragmatics, affects, power dynamics, and spatial logics in which that research is enfolded. Understanding the complex relationships between brains, minds, and environments requires a delicate, playful and genuinely experimental interdisciplinarity, and this book shows us how it can be done.

    Teaching, Research and Academic Careers (2023)
    Springer Nature | Springer International Publishing
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-03
    Description: This open access book evaluates research quality, quality of teaching and the relationship between the two through sound statistical methods, and in a comparative perspective with other European countries. In so doing, it covers an increasingly important topic for universities that affects university funding. It discusses whether university evaluation should be limited to a single factor or consider multiple dimensions of research, since academic careers, teaching and awarding degrees are intertwined. The chapters included in the book evaluate teaching and research, also taking the gender dimension into account, in order to understand where and when gender discrimination occurs in assessment. Divided into five sections, the book analyses the administrative data on the determinants of career completion of university students; increasing precariousness of academic careers, especially of young researchers; methods designed to assess research productivity when co-authorship and team production are becoming the standard practice; and interrelations between students’ achievements and teachers’ careers driven by research assessment. It brings together contributions from a large group of economists, statisticians and social scientists working under a project sponsored by ANVUR, the Italian agency for the evaluation of teaching and research of academic institutions. From an international perspective, the findings in this book are particularly interesting because despite low tuition costs, tertiary education in Italy has relatively low enrolment rates and even lower completion rates compared to those in other European and American countries. This book is of interest to researchers of the sociology of education, education policy, public administration, economics and statistics of education, and to administrators and policy makers working in the area of higher education.

    Addressing the Climate Crisis (2021)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This open access book brings together a collection of cutting-edge insights into how action can and is already being taken against climate change at multiple levels of our societies, amidst growing calls for transformative and inclusive climate action. In an era of increasing recognition regarding climate and ecological breakdown, this book offers hope, inspiration and analyses for multi-level climate action, spanning varied communities, places, spaces, agents and disciplines, demonstrating how the energy and dynamism of local scales are a powerful resource in turning the tide. Interconnected yet conceptually distinct, the book’s three sections span multiple levels of analysis, interrogating diverse perspectives and practices inherent to the vivid tapestry of climate action emerging locally, nationally and internationally. Delivered in collaboration with the UK’s ‘Place-Based Climate Action Network’, chapters are drawn from a wide range of authors with varying backgrounds spread across academia, policy and practice.

    L’idée d’université (2022)
    Presses universitaires du Septentrion
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: « Ce livre devenu un classique », selon Owen Chadwick, comprend deux parties dont seule la seconde est traduite ici, la première ayant déjà fait l’objet d’une traduction en 1968. John Henry Newman, nommé recteur fondateur, en 1851, d’une université catholique à Dublin, réfléchit aux objectifs d’une telle institution. Il met au premier plan la formation de l’esprit tout autant que l’acquisition du savoir afin de parvenir à une véritable culture humaniste. Il traite des rapports entre raison et foi, science et théologie, il insiste sur les liens qui unissent langue et littérature, il aborde les problèmes d’éthique médicale ; il préconise une recherche libre de tout préjugé mais éclairée par une pensée chrétienne qui a assimilé la culture antique. Cependant il n’ignore pas les applications pratiques qu’entraîne une telle création. Un ensemble de facultés, complémentaires les unes des autres, devra se développer à partir du noyau initial qu’est la Faculté des Arts et des Lettres, élément essentiel de tout enseignement universitaire. Celui-ci sera ainsi vivifié par la recherche et maintiendra le rapport d’un savoir particulier à une connaissance plus générale. À notre époque où l’Université s’interroge sur sa raison d’être, l’idéal exigeant de Newman reste tout à fait d’actualité.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-03
    Description: This open access book explores climate change impacts, adaptation, and mitigation in Central Asia and discusses policy options for the Central Asian governments. To address the urgent need for local scholarship on climate change in Central Asia, and in particular the need for more research by social scientists, this book features a wide range of contributions on climate change impacts, adaptation and mitigation in the region. Each chapter makes an important contribution to social science scholarship on climate change and decarbonization in Central Asia. Topics include decarbonization opportunities, carbon pricing instruments, the geo-economics of the energy transition, the relationship between human mobility and climate change. The book thus offers valuable insights for both academics and policymakers.

    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This open access book assesses how the Covid-19 pandemic caught higher education systems throughout the world by surprise. It maps out the responses of higher education institutions to the challenges and strategic opportunities brought about by the pandemic, and examines the effects such responses may have. Bringing together scholars and case studies from Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas, the book is both comparative and global in nature. It also brings together researchers from a variety of disciplinary fields, including political scientists, historians, economists, sociologist, and anthropologists. In doing so, the book fosters an inter-disciplinary dialogue and inclusive methodological approach for unpacking the complexities associated with modern higher education systems and institutions.

    Networks and Geographies of Global Social Policy Diffusion (2021)
    Springer Nature | Palgrave Macmillan
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: This open access book analyses the global diffusion of social policy as a process driven by multiplex ties between countries in global social networks. The contributions analyze links between countries via global trade, colonial history, similarity in culture, and spatial proximity. Networks are viewed as the structural backbone of the diffusion process, and diffusion is anlaysed via several subfields of social policy, in order to interrogate which network dimensions drive this process. The focus is on a global perspective of social policy diffusion via networks, and it is the first book to explicitly follow this macro-quantitative perspective on diffusion at a global scale whilst also comparing different networks. The collection tests the network structures in terms of their relevance to the diffusion process in different subfields of social policy such as old age and survivor pensions, labor and labor markets, health and long-term care, education and training, and family and gender policy. The book will therefore be invaluable to students and researchers of global social policy, sociology, political science, international relations, organization theory and economics.

    Hommes de Dieu et fonctionnaires du roi en Gaule du Nord du Ve au IXe siècle (348-817) (2022)
    Presses universitaires du Septentrion
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: Cette étude sur le clergé mérovingien et carolingien, envisagée dans ses rapports avec le pouvoir politique et dans son activité pastorale, est saisie dans une perspective évolutive pour faire ressortir les changements et les différences selon les temps et les lieux. L’auteur, a dû embrasser une documentation énorme et pulvérisée : les listes épiscopales ou abbatiales, les canons des conciles, les capitulaires, les vies des saints lorsqu’elles existent et il a réussi de la sorte à dégager des constatations nouvelles, apportant une image vivante, diversifiée et contrastée du monde ecclésiastique à l’époque franque. On savait déjà que ce monde n’était pas statique et homogène, mais on ne le savait pas avec une telle précision. Durant cinq siècles, le clergé fut en quête de son identité : fonctionnaire public ou homme de Dieu. Ainsi se juxtaposent un Martin qui récuse les dotations fiscales de l’État et un Rémi qui les sollicite, des clercs mondains attachés à leurs privilèges et des évêques, inspirés par Lérins qui procèdent à une conversion des mœurs avant d’entrer en charge, enfin des prélats aristocrates, ayant un sens aigu du devoir et du droit pour servir de médiateur auprès de Dieu et du prince et des clercs simoniaques, devenus les serviles vassaux des clans aristocratiques. Le baptême de Clovis avait laissé espérer une docilité du pouvoir aux conseils de l’épiscopat, le concile d’Orléans de 511 plaça le clergé sous la coupe royale. Les revenus des diocèses destinés aux œuvres de paix furent affectés pour la guerre et les synodes se transformèrent en tribunaux politiques. Grégoire-le-Grand et les moines luxoviens dénoncèrent ces vices et affirmèrent une spécificité et une qualité du clergé par un costume et un mode de vie. Boniface dénonça les falsipiscopi violents et prévaricateurs puis Chrodegang fit du clergé l’organisateur de la liturgie impériale et des grandes cérémonies expiatoires pour le salut de l’empire carolingien. Le bilan dressé en 811 par Charlemagne, de fonctionnaires corrompus et de médiocres pasteurs, n’est guère flatteur. Cette vision cache l’action en profondeur des prélats gallo-romains, du Liber Pastoralis et des irlandais pour faire du clerc un vitae evangelicae imitator et non pas un simple intendant des grands susceptible de s’engager contre les unions incestueuses et prônant le repos dominical. Par ailleurs, la prolixité liturgique d’inspiration orientale s’uniformisa sur le modèle romain pour mieux répondre et encadrer une religiosité populaire exubérante envers les reliques et le culte des saints. Le clergé parvint ainsi à s’imposer dans la société au prix d’une exigence morale interne considérable inspirée par le courant monastique et d’une soumission progressive des pêcheurs à une pénitence non moins rigoureuse.
