Leading in a Culture of Change

’Participation, a label once clearly connected with widening democracy, has many and quite different meanings these days. One of them is to be involved to some degree rather than being marginalized. Welfare services have a key role in this. The analytical contributions and case studies in this book give a rich portrait of the challenges that arise when strategies for involvement by service support and activation oscillate  between building capacities and quests for conformity.’ Adalbert Evers, Justus-Liebig-University, Germany  ’The contributors to this versatile volume explore inherent contradictions in the institutional arrangements, policies and discourses of contemporary Scandinavian and European social regimes. Based on a range of local studies, the authors problematize claims of social service involvement, and insightfully reformulate a handful of notions associated with citizen participation. This is a timely book for professionals, academics and students. It grapples with an urgent question, suggesting emergent forms of solidarity.’  Adrienne Chambon, University of Toronto, Canada

"What a fun novel and a great way to get kids excited about the power of math in the real world! The protagonist, Lindy, evolves from math-phobic child to stock market whiz kid, learning that math is much more than a class at school; it's key to making money. All of this in a book that is fun and energetic and filled with relatable characters. Inspiring kids to see the value in math is one of my passions, and Elissa Brent Weissman has hit the nail on the head with The Short Seller."

‘Empirical studies of mass response to globalization are still lacking. This is especially true for systematic cross-national accounts. The volume edited by Marsh and Inoguchi fills this gap. It maps citizen attitudes in 9 Asian and 9 Western European countries, relying on the high quality ASIA-EUROPE SURVEY. Results show that a majority of citizens in the countries under study feel exposed to and talk about globalization - mostly in positive terms. However, this broadening of the focus of citizen attitudes does not affect the continuing importance of the nation state for attitude formation. Globalization broadens the context of citizens’ experience; it does not replace the older contexts. Students and scholars pursuing the subject will greatly benefit from this volume.’

Piilonen's book deepens our understanding of nineteenth-century thinking on music and evolution. She explores the nuances of Darwin's ideas on the topic and shows how his ideas are entwined with others such as Spencer and Gurney and enmeshed in English Victorian ideologies. Based on this analysis, Piilonen raises timely issues for contemporary research on the evolution of human musicality.

“As an edited work, comprised of thoughtful, detailed, erudite research essays largely by anthropologists and linguists, Living Kinship is a work for specialists. Many of the essays are highly technical, dealing with semantic features of kinship terminology, linguistic descriptors, generational differentiators, and spatial arrangements for ceremonial recognition of familial relations. At the same time, it does have an engagingly comprehensive thesis about the complexities of kinship ties and a number of important implications for broader Pacific scholarship.” • Journal of New Zealand & Pacific Studies

	“…a collection of high-quality research articles whose foci coincide to a remarkable degree…. [that] will be of lasting value to scholars of the region for years to come—because knowledge of kinship will be knowledge that counts for a long time to come.” • The Asia Pacific Journal of Anthropology

	“Altogether, this collection goes a long way to meeting the volume’s main objectives. The volume provides ethnographically-grounded overviews of the various ways kinship in these locales continues to serve as vital ‘knowledge that counts.’ … the volume will be a valuable resource for Pacific Islands scholars who will also have to consider the ways that kinship matters in their field sites as a central dimension of everyday life. The volume also provides useful resources for teaching contemporary Pacific kinship in the Pacific.” • Anthropos

	“…there are excellent accounts of culturally specific renderings of biological relatedness across the cultures described here… Overall, we are offered ethnographically rich insights into contemporary kinship as grounded in longstanding traditions and persisting in the face of tremendous forces of change.” • Anthropology Book Forum

	“Living Kinship in the Pacific successfully makes the case for the power of kinship in contemporary Pacific societies and hopefully encourages anthropologists to take it seriously and search for its function for peoples all around the world.” • Anthropology Review Database

	“Studying kinship is like vitamins for anthropologists: it’s always beneficial and we don’t get enough. This book provides strong and useful accounts of contemporary understandings of kinship in the Pacific.” • Matt Tomlinson, Australian National University

	“A timely and worthwhile book. The introduction is compelling and contemporary, and the chapters in the main are very well written, clear, interesting, and suggestive... [the] enlightening discussion of ritual and learning in childhood, and what that implies for how people come to ‘know’ about kin… and about the significance and meaning of [kinship] practices, is excellent.” • James Leach, Researcher CNRS, CREDO
