Management Accounting in the Contemporary Business World

Prowle, MalcolmMalcolm Prowle is Professor of Performance Management at the University of Gloucestershire Business School, UK. He has authored over sixty publications, including six full-length books (one for Palgrave Macmillan), book chapters, research reports and papers in both academic peer-reviewed and professional journals.

Management accounting education has long revolved around large-scale traditional manufacturing industries. We know that this is no longer the operating environment for many businesses and yet many textbooks have not undergone the changes that these organisations have. Management Accounting in the Contemporary Business World recognises the changes that have taken place, such as the shift from manufacturing to services, globalization and the increased role of technology, and addresses the issue of how management accounting should be undertaken in modern operating environments. The book provides a comprehensive discussion about the nature of the changes involved and their implications for all aspects of management accounting in the operational, tactical and strategic spheres. The content of the book is enhanced by the use of many practical case studies.

The Future Regulation of WorkNew Concepts, New Paradigms

Busby, NicoleDouglas Brodie is Dean of Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Strathclyde, UK

Labour law is in crisis. Global economic factors and the changing contours of work and workplace relations have led to a reorientation of the social, economic, political and cultural environment within which labour law has developed. This is not a jurisdictional problem but rather is deeply entrenched in transnational development. Solutions must recognise and mobilise the transformational shift that has taken place over recent decades. Law should be viewed as a force for and a facilitator of change, capable of expressing and determining social relations. The essays in this book explore the challenges posed by labour law’s potential reinvention as a discipline fit for accommodating and investigating such change within a range of different but connected jurisdictional and regulatory concepts and paradigms.

Unleashing the Force of Law Legal Mobilization, National Security, and Basic Freedoms

Prabhat, DevyaniDevyani Prabhat is a Lecturer in the School of Law at the University of Bristol, UK.

Basic freedoms cannot be abandoned in times of conflict, or can they? Are basic freedoms routinely forsaken during times when there are national security concerns? These questions present different conundrums for the legal profession, which generally values basic freedoms but is also part of the architecture of emergency legal frameworks.Unleashing the Force of Law uses multi-jurisdiction empirical data and draws on cause lawyering, political lawyering and Bourdieusian juridical field literature to analyze the invocation of legal norms aimed at the protection of basic freedoms in times of national security tensions. It asks three main questions about the protection of basic freedoms. First, when do lawyers mobilize for the protection of basic freedoms? Second, in what kind of mobilization do they engage? Third, how do the strategies they adopt relate to the outcomes they achieve?Covering the last five decades, the book focusses on the 1980s and the Noughties through an analysis of legal work for two groups of independence seekers in the 1980s, namely, Republican (mostly Catholic) separatists in Northern Ireland and Puerto Rican separatists in the US, and on post-9/11 issues concerning basic freedoms in both countries.

Exploring the ‘Legal’ in Socio-Legal Studies

Cowan, DavidDavid Cowan is Professor of Law and Policy at the University of Bristol, UK.

Socio-legal studies have had an ambivalent relationship with the ‘legal’ – one of its defining aspects, but at the same time one that the discipline has sought to transcend or even leave behind. While socio-legal studies benefit hugely from the insights, methods and theories of other social science and humanity disciplines, the contributions to Exploring the ‘Legal’ in Socio-Legal Studies illustrate the value of a focus on the ‘legal’.

The chapters in this book combine traditional legal materials and analyses with other ways of engaging empirically with the ‘legal’. They illustrate the rich potential of the ‘legal’ as a site both for theoretical and methodological reflection and for case study analysis.

Taken as a whole, this volume demonstrates that methodological discussion is most helpful when rooted in empirical cases, and that the best case studies also help us to develop our methodologies. Bringing methodology and empirical analysis together offers an opportunity to reflect on socio-legal studies and develop the discipline in productive new directions. 9781137344366 Hardcover £70.00 03 December 2015

This major new text on the theory and practice of public management moves away from descriptive accounts of its evolution to provide a systematic treatment of the key paradigms of public management today. It examines their competing outlooks, values, tools and assumptions and – using a wide range of examples from different areas of management around the world – their implications for practice. The text sets out three contrasting ‘logics’ for management – performance, professionalism and politics – and shows how public managers act on the interplay between these for effective results. Relating all three logics to a wide range of diverse contexts – from police services to healthcare, social services to educational providers – the text shows how managers can simultaneously perform to a high standard, act professionally through their work, and cope with internal and external politics. Incorporating the latest theories and practices, this comprehensive book will appeal to readers around the world wanting to understand, and contribute to, public management today.

Rethinking the New World Order

Sørensen, GeorgGeorg Sørensen is Professor of International Politics and Economics, University of Aarhus, Denmark.

The end of the Cold War gave rise to much talk of a ‘new’ global order and debate about just how new or orderly it was and would be. Attempts to analyse the nature of this order have been many and various. This important new text assesses the main approaches and offers its own analysis arguing that, while chaos and raw anarchy are not on the cards, each of the major domains of power - security, economics, institutions and values - contains elements of potentially major instability. Interstate war may be receding, but there are no simple solutions to comprehensive violent conflict inside fragile states, and the non-democratic great powers continue to have major regional ambitions. There is a global liberal market economy, but it is increasingly unequal and its financial infrastructure remains fragile and crisis-prone.

Developments in British Politics , 10ed

Richard HeffernanRichard Heffernan is Reader in Government, The Open University, UK.

In recent years British politics has seemed increasingly unpredictable. The Conservative Party’s return to single-party government in 2015 surprised commentators and the electorate alike, and Labour’s choice of Jeremy Corbyn as its leader marked a striking change in direction for the party. Cuts to public welfare and spending have led to growing dissatisfaction among sections of the public, and the increasing popularity of parties critical of the government’s immigration, economic and social policies appears to represent a call for fundamental change in British politics. With a question mark hanging over the country’s global standing following the EU referendum, and with further calls for Scottish independence, Britain’s immediate future seems uncertain.

Saich, TonyTony Saich is Daewoo Professor of International Affairs and Director of the Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation at the John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University, USA. He has spent many years in China and visits regularly and runs training programs for senior Chinese government officials.

The success or failure of China’s development will impact not only its own citizens but also those of the world. China is widely recognized as a global actor on the world stage and no global challenge can be resolved without its participation. Thus, it is important to understand how the country is ruled and what the policy priorities are of the new leadership. Can China move to a more market-based economy, while controlling environmental degradation? Can it integrate hundreds of millions of new migrants into the urban landscape? The tensions between communist and capitalist identities continue to divide society as China searches for a path to modernization. 9781137445278 Paperback £30.99 30 April 20159781137445285 Hardcover £85.00 30 April 2015

Rethinking Hegemony

Worth, OwenOwen Worth is Lecturer in International Relations and International Political Economy at the University of Limerick, Ireland.

Hegemony has long been a key concept within the study of International Relations, as well as across the social sciences more generally, and a term used by analysts to make sense of contemporary events. Drawing on a rich historical framework, this book traces the different definitions and interpretations of hegemony in world politics and shows that the term continues to be a contested one. It examines and develops traditional ideas about hegemony – from the idea of the strong leading state to the dominance of particular ideologies – through a wide range of approaches including hegemonic stability theory and the work of Antonio Gramsci. 9781137300454 Paperback £28.99 01 June 20159781137300461 Hardcover £75.00 01 June 2015

Dancing between Hope and DespairTrauma, Attachment and the Therapeutic Relationship

Wright, SueSue Wright is an Integrative Psychotherapist who specialises in working with people who have experienced complex trauma. She has worked with both adults and young people in a variety of settings in the public and voluntary sectors, and now works privately as a therapist, supervisor and trainer.

Why is hope so fundamental to our existence?

In considering this and many other questions, this evocative book introduces the reader to the repeated shifting, or 'dance', between hope and despair that is so often encountered by practitioners working with profoundly traumatised individuals. Drawing on a broad range of theoretical perspectives and illustrated by a wealth of case studies and first-hand experiences, the book brings a sharp focus to the ways in which therapeutic relationships can draw individuals out of the constant oscillation between light and dark. It provides an insightful and thoughtful discussion not just about despair itself, but about how to be with despair: about how practitioners can help clients turn towards the experiences of emotional pain, and stand with them in the face of it.

Values in Social WorkReconnecting with Social Justice

Fenton, JaneJane is a senior lecturer at the University of Dundee, where she has worked for approximately ten years. Her research interests were motivated by her twelve years' experience in criminal justice social work, and her observation that social work values were being eroded as managerialism took hold. Subsequently, her research interests have evolved into the exploration of a wider disconnect between social work values and practice, particularly in regards to social justice. She publishes regularly on these topics. Principles of social justice lie at the heart of the social work profession. This book examines the current climate of social work practice and the challenges presented by neoliberalism. It puts forward a model for reconnecting with more traditional social justice values and doing the right thing rather than just doing things the right way. 9781137528322 Paperback £23.99 09 September 2016

Global Social Policy Themes, Issues and Actors

Artaraz, KepaKepa Artaraz is Principal Lecturer in Applied Social Science at the University of Brighton, UK.

Social policy is a subject that helps develop our understanding of the meaning of human wellbeing, and of the systems by which wellbeing must be promoted. As a discipline, social policy has traditionally been blunted by a focus on the nation state; however, in this age of globalisation the most pressing challenges – such as climate change, ageing populations and flagging economies – serve as proof that, even at national level, social policy is now more heavily influenced by global factors than ever before. In this important and authoritative text, Kepa Artaraz and Michael Hill provide a richly detailed contribution to our understanding of the global forces shaping social problems today. Part One discusses the different approaches to social policy and explores the process of globalisation, looking particularly at its winners and losers and the implications it has for human well-being; Part Two examines more closely the key actors in global social policy – such as the market, the state and international organisations; and Part Three provides an opportunity to explore some specific key issues of global importance, such as employment and migration, demographic change and global poverty. 9781137388964 Paperback £24.99 24 June 2016
