Visions From the Edge includes eleven dystopian short stories set in the future. In The Key, Jonathan Maples has secretly tended a key for years that carries him both to his destiny and demise. In The First Twenty-Four Hours, Sarah Thrift gives birth to the first child in her San Francisco quadrant in five years. While she anxiously awaits her infant daughter's public celebration, her husband anxiously watches her. In Bud 'n' Patch, desert dweller Bud misses the beauty and coolness of green grass and hates the weekly helicoper patrols over his house that search for it. In Endangered, the U.S. Supreme Court shrouds an endangered species case in mystery. And, in A Christmas Walk to the Village, Jim Miller wants his children to take a simple walk outside their northern California home. His wife is terrified to allow it. The characters in these and other stories in Visions From the Edge do what they can to exist in a world where their most basic desires are often out of reach.

Given its eschatological orientation and its marginal position in the Roman Empire, emergent Christianity found embodiment, as an aspect of being in the world, problematic. Those identified and identifying as Christians developed two broad responses to that world as they embraced the idea of being in, yet not of it. The first response, martyrdom, was witness to the strength their faith gave to fragile bodies, particularly those of women, and the ability by suffering to overcome bodily limitation and attain the resurrection life. The second, asceticism, complemented and later continued martyrdom as a means of bodily transcendence and participation in the spiritual world.
The concept of territory is central in international law, but a detailed analysis of how the concept is used in both discourse and practice has been lacking until now. Rather than reproducing the established understanding of territoriality within the international legal order, this study suggests that the discipline of international law relies on an outmoded spatial paradigm. Gail Lythgoe argues for a complete update and overhaul of our understanding of territory and space, to engage more effectively with key processes, structures and actors relevant to contemporary global governance. In this new theoretical account of an essential aspect of public international law, she argues that territory is a dynamic social reality created by the exercise of power. Territories are constituted by the practices of a more diverse array of actors than is acknowledged. As a result, functions are re-assembling in territories constituted by state and non-state actors alike.

Performing Organizational Paradoxes
Gail T. Fairhurst; Linda L. Putnam
TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2024
nidottu
Performing Organizational Paradoxes takes a constitutive, process approach to organizational paradoxes. It underscores the performative nature of paradox through underlying dialectical tensions, its sociomaterial foundations, and power features that bring paradoxes to life, sustain them, and enable their transformation. The book first situates a constitutive approach in the extant organizational paradox literature, by broadening the constitutive approach and addressing the many debates and inaccuracies around it. For the novice, several early chapters devote themselves to considering how paradoxical tensions present themselves, invite responses, and interrelate through their organizing outcomes. For the advanced, latter chapters consider the ubiquity of power and paradox, how bodies escape the quarantine of their paradox narratives, how inventive category work can resist power-imbued paradoxes, and an agenda for future research that challenges scholars to do more on the process side of paradox.Filling an important gap in the existing literature, this book will be a key resource for scholars and students in the fields of communication, management, educational administration, organizational psychology and any other fields that study organizations.
