Online Gambling and Crime

'It is easy to accept the heteronormative consciousness that informs and influences all aspects of psychotherapy. But it does not make it right. Queer theory offers radical insights into therapeutic logic and this book provides new and challenging perspectives on sex, gender and sexualities while giving language, communication, text and practice careful consideration. Questioning the process of therapy,  this book offers ideas on reflection for practice and the development of theory in these areas.' Stephen Palmer, City University London, UK  'Counselling Ideologies: Queer Challenges to Heteronormativity offers a timely and significant interrogation of the transforming terrains of sexuality and psychology. The authors in this collection take up a number of critical questions concerning the constraints of heteronormative counselling ideologies on counselling practice and explore the expansive terrains of queer politics and queer theory to rethink both. The collection bridges theory and practice, drawing together insights from cultural studies of sexuality to refresh and reinvigorate the applied, professional dimensions of counselling and psychology. An excellent text.' Deborah Lynn Steinberg, University of Warwick, UK  'These searching and critical essays provide a much needed challenge to the mainstream languages and practices of counselling whose imageries of heterosexuality, family life and monogamy are here under fire. This book will be a significant challenge to counsellors and a call to arms for queer theorists.' Ken Plummer, University of Essex, UK  'This book engages mostly professionals from the field of psychotherapy and deploys the practical dimension of operationalized de-historicizing of the underlying heteronormative templates within the scientific establishments of psychic care. The two ambitions - enacting deheterosexualization of therapy and showing resisting therapeutic practices - reveal substantial chunks of the heterosexualist paradigm in present

Jesse Livermore. Das Spiel der Spiele

Velikonja has been reading the landscapes of post-communist societies positioning himself not above, but beneath: from every day life, from it’s marginal, subcultural edges. Thus, he opposes and subverts heavy, hierarchical, masculine, militant, "state" version of recent historical events. He is one of the most creative, inventive and amusing "readers" of contemporary Central European and Balkan ideological constellations. In this book Velikonja invented a new science: "graffitology". Reading graffiti within Balkan and Central European urban landscape Velikonja acts like a cultural graphologist. He is a post-communist Doctor Dolittle: reading, understanding and interpreting the language of graffiti Velikonja provides more relevant diagnosis of transitional societies and their maladies then the most of "official historians". - Dubravka Ugrešić, author of The Culture of Lies and The Ministry of Pain

"Focusing on the complex interplay between social structure, ideology and aesthetic resolutions, and as a result of a long-term engagement and meticulous field-work, this book presents a very personal reading of graffiti, this underestimated genre of "profane culture." The value of this work is both general, in offering what amounts to a theoretical "manual" of analyzing methods for approaching the visual culture of street art, and area specific. Engaging in case studies from the period of "transition," Velikonja suggests the flexibility of graffiti, showing both their potential to be neutered through domestication and aestheticization, as well as their capacity for serious political subversion." - Maria Todorova, professor at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, author of Imagining the Balkans

"A vital contribution to the literature on the ongoing political transformations in Europe’s (South)East by one of the leading authorities on the subject. Velikonja’s appreciation and sympathy for the deeply personal and traumatic aspects of these grand historical transitions comes to the fore in this text, making this a paradigmatic contribution to debates about East European civil society and youth culture." - Dr. Jasmin Mujanović, author of Hunger and Fury: The Crisis of Democracy in the Balkans　　

"Professor Mitja Velikonja not only provides systematic theorizing about the significance of graffiti and street art but shares deep insights on the profound crises of transition in post-communist Eastern Europe, a region which he understands profoundly." - Paul Mojzes, professor emeritus at Rosemont College, PA, and editor of Occasional Papers on Religion in Eastern Europe
"Thanks to the author’s broad knowledge of the Balkans and Central Europe, this systematic investigation of political graffiti brings important insight into grassroots engagement in a troubled region during a complex transitional period." - Svein Mønnesland, professor emeritus at University of Oslo, member of the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters

"The images contained in this fascinating study of graffiti and street art in the Balkans and Central Europe represent a major effort to open a window to the complexities of the region's development since the end of the Cold War, complemented by a innovative quantitative as well as qualitative analysis of post-socialist popular art and politics. This book will be of great interest not only to cultural historians and social scientists of Europe, but also of the Americas, Asia or wherever else graffiti have become an intriguing expression of radical modern culture and politics." - Volker R. Berghahn, professor at Columbia University, New York, author of Europe in the Era of Two World Wars: From Militarism and Genocide to Civil Society, 1900-1950
"Mitja Velikonja truly knows that the words of the prophets are often written on city walls and, moreover, teaches us how to read them. Drawing on his enormous erudition, ranging from political theory and aesthetics to bizarre popular subcultures, the author examines graffitis across the post-socialist zone and explains what on earth happened to us all (both in the East and the West) after 1989. With this book, Velikonja is about to launch graffitology as a new academic congregation. Join it today!" - Igor Štiks, the author of Nations and Citizens in Yugoslavia and the Post-Yugoslav States: One Hundred Years of Citizenship

"With color illustrations as well as insightful essays by Christina Connett Brophy, Elizabeth Broun, and William C. Agee that analyze, respectively, Ryder&rsquo;s historical context, his elusive painterly ideas, and his outsize influence on generations of artists, A Wild Note of Longing: Albert Pinkham Ryder and a Century of American Artoffers us the exceedingly welcome chance to reflect on this austere, stirring, and wholeheartedly strange painter."&#160; &mdash;THE NEW CRITERION"The exhibition catalogue &hellip; is a substantial publication. High-quality images alternate with essays by the three curators. While Brophy&rsquo;s text focuses on the historical and artistic context of New Bedford, Broun gives an analysis of Ryder&rsquo;s work and the effect of his paintings on viewers. As she writes, Ryder&rsquo;s artworks 'reveal their allure slowly over time, after repeated looking,' echoing the artist&rsquo;s own slow labor. Agee&rsquo;s essay (like his curation) focuses on Ryder&rsquo;s legacy: 'His influence through generations of artists has often been quiet, even invisible, like an underground stream, but nevertheless one that flows steadily.' Agee explains that Ryder&rsquo;s paintings have attracted artists by giving them 'permission to feel again, to break free of the chains of theory.' This license for freedom and individuality was also felt by painter Peter Shear, who describes Ryder&rsquo;s work as a 'fortunate place to get lost at a moment when, like all young artists, I was searching for the permission to be myself.'"&#160;&mdash;THE BROOKLYN RAIL

'This book provides an important and interesting insight into the hospitality and tourism sectors. The focus on the institutional theory provides a refreshing view on how policy and governance can influence the rules of the game of the hospitality and tourism industry. Definitely a compulsory resource for students and novice researchers in various social science disciplines.'
Jose Huesca Dorantes, University of Auckland Business School, New Zealand
'While the importance of the institutional environment in understanding tourism is well recognized, a comprehensive review of recent advances in institutional theory from neighbouring disciplines and their application to tourism studies is missing. This book provides a thorough review of institutional perspectives in organisational sociology, economics, political science and international business and proposes an integrative framework with a rich discussion on how the different elements of institutional analysis can be applied to better understand tourism organisations. In addition, the book provides an excellent reflection on the methodological challenges of ‘doing’ institutional analysis. As such, this book will be of great value for students of tourism and in advancing institutional analysis in tourism studies.'
Ziad Elsahn, University of Northumbria, UK
'This book must be welcomed as pioneer comprehensive research on the application of institutional theory to tourism and hospitality. Tourism and hospitality businesses are able to develop and flourish by understanding the institutional environment they operate in. This book is invaluable for researchers and university students.'
Sergei Polbitsyn, Ural Federal University, Russia
