Gives voice to the experiences of LGBTQI+ persons prior to, during, and after the Holocaust, showing how the Nazi regime instituted a violent, oppressive, and murderous attack on LGBTQI+ life, culture, and identity.Hitler and the Nazis' reign of power had dire and long-lasting consequences for LGBTQI+ persons in Germany, Europe, and arguably the world. This survey of key topics and themes within the greater landscape of Holocaust and genocide studies helps identify how deep-seated prejudices against LGBTQI+ persons evolved into eliminationist ideology under the Nazis. Entries consider the lives of the persecuted and the persecutors alongside examinations of the attitudes and ideas that shaped their present and prejudices; in short, how the German society at large came to condone, and at times participate in, the forceful arrest, disappearance, and murder of thousands of their fellow citizens. Considering also the resistance movement, profiles of key individuals tell the story of those who resisted the Nazi assault on LGBTQI+ persons. A chronology of key events, perspective essays, primary sources, and survivor testimony further help shed light on the resilience and resistance of the community and the evolution of their persecution under and after the Nazis.

This Encyclopedia offers a concise introduction to law and economics, a thriving and continuously evolving field. While other valuable resources already provide numerous essays on specific topics, this encyclopedia is original, differing from-and complementing-existing encyclopedias and companions in four respects. First, to cover as many aspects and dimensions of law and economics as possible, it includes a large number of relatively short chapters. Second, many of these chapters explore the boundaries between law and economics and related fields such as public choice, institutional economics, transaction cost economics, and industrial economics. Third, the encyclopedia allocates space for historical and methodological chapters focusing on the founders of the field and on important scholars who, directly or indirectly, contributed to shaping law and economics as it is today. This new edition aims to expand these distinctive features. Its goal is to cover even more areas within law and economics-particularly by addressing issues raised by big data and new technologies-to deepen the interdisciplinary dimension of the field and to include additional historical and methodological chapters. The second edition includes 150 additional entries compared to the first edition, with most of the existing chapters updated. This results in a broader and more up-to-date coverage of law and economics.

The organization format will be an A-Z approach of approximately 500-600 entries (with entries ranging in word count from 1,500-3,000 words, with some entries on foundational topics at around 5,000). Coverage will examine both the role gender plays within the realm of politics (political participation, leadership, etc.) as well as policies that are based in gender (abortion and reproductive policies, transgender rights, etc.). Foundational topics will include entries such as "International Security and Gender," which will introduce gender and war, human trafficking, gender and militarism, and women and terrorism; and, "International Relations and Gender," which will introduce topics such as gender mainstreaming, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), and eco-feminism. A "Comparative Politics" foundational entry will focus on research areas surrounding political representation and participation, legislative processes, and law such as: gender quotas, gender gap in political participation and leadership, intersectionality (and barriers in representation and leadership), Ni Unos Menos/Not One Less Movement (recent significant activist movements), and transgender specific law. Concepts connected to feminist and queer theory as applied in regional studies will also be covered. For example, "marianismo" or the connection between Catholicism and gender roles in Latin American and Latinx communities, Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) voters and political mobilization, and LGBQTIA leaders and social movements will be included. This encyclopedia will be essential for any undergraduate or graduate course on gender studies (in gender studies programs as well as sociology, political science, history or other related programs/disciplines), gender and politics, international relations and gender or area specific courses such as Gender and Latin American Politics or Gender and African Studies.

Sikhism is one of the most important religious traditions of South Asian origin. Sikhs are historically connected to the Punjab region in South Asia, but their religious traditions are transnational and have a worldwide presence. The study of their history and traditions has become a significant field of scholarship and research, but no academic, authoritative, and up-to-date reference work exists. Brill's Encyclopedia of Sikhism aims to make available in-depth critical scholarship on all the main aspects of the Sikh traditions in a number of original essays written by the world's foremost scholars on Sikhs and Sikh traditions. The encyclopedia is thematic and seeks to present a balanced and impartial view of the Sikh traditions in all their multiplicity and as both historical and contemporary institutions. The articles, published in two volumes, focus on history, literature, and the rich social landscape of the Sikh community; their practices, places, arts, and performances; specialists and leadership; migration both within South Asia and beyond; and contemporary issues and relations.

The Central African Republic (CAR) joined the international community when it attained autonomy within the Communaute (French Community) on 1 December 1958. Under this arrangement, France retained control over defense, foreign affairs, currency, and home security. Through history, Central Africans, comprising a quite large number of different ethnic groups and subgroups, engaged in internal and external conflicts, leading to significant migrations that showcased the nation's current cultural diversity. In the twilight of the 19 century, Western influence arrived on the heels of French colonists, marking the end of slave trade from neighboring states to Central Africans but introducing new forms of servitude such as concessionary companies, portage, taxes, and compulsory labor. Central Africans saw their cultural systems and languages gradually erode, replaced by European educational models and Christianization. In less than 70 years, Central Africans experienced profound changes without a cohesive plan. As an independent nation, the CAR found itself grappling with Western nations contesting its natural resources, yielding little profit, and trapped in neocolonialism. The nation's limited income weakened its authority, leading to its disappearance in rural areas. Tensions over land resources escalated into a civil war, disguised and polarized under the guise of interreligious conflict. Today, Central Africans stand at a pivotal moment, seeking change for peace and recovery.Historical Dictionary of the Central African Republic, Second Edition contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has more than 1,200 cross-referenced entries on important personalities as well as aspects of the country's politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the Central African Republic (CAR).

The Oxford Encyclopedia of African Women's History is the first reference work of its kind: a comprehensive resource that documents the centrality of women--their lives, experiences, accomplishments and perspectives--to the history of Africa. Over 125 entries explore African women's lives across states, regions, and time periods, along with their contributions to fields such as politics, law, science, arts and literature, and popular culture. The volumes also include a handful of biographical articles that place major figures within their specific historical context. African women, of course, are hardly a homogenous group. As this project reveals, their lifeways, their opportunities and obstacles, differ, sometimes dramatically, by social class, cultural norms, religious background, ethnic heritage, political structures, sexual preferences, and more. Each was born into a time, place, and society that shaped (but did not determine) what it meant to be a "woman" (and of course, a "man"). While some women complied with the dominant gender norms of their day, others forged new ways of being and belonging. But individually and collectively, they were, and continue to be, central creators of and contributors to African history. The contributors, many of them of African descent, have written entries to engage and inspire a broad audience, including students, policy makers, scholars, and other curious people from around the world. In this way, the Encyclopedia provides a foundation of timely reference material, in conjunction with the online Oxford Research Encyclopedia of African History.

Courses in psychological distress and disorders are among the most popular courses in psychology programs, and mood and anxiety disorders are among the most prevalent disorders covered in these classes and encountered by mental health professionals. Although there are books on mood and anxiety disorders, on particular aspects of them, and on their presentation in specific populations, such works do not provide students new to the field with a comprehensive and accessible ready reference for understanding these disorders with respect to their phenomenology, etiology, and treatment, and through an inclusive lens that consistently considers how these symptoms appear and are construed across cultures, addressing societal factors such as race, culture, equity, and oppression. It is hoped that The SAGE Encyclopedia of Mood and Anxiety Disorders will fill this gap, allowing students and other interested readers to become familiar with past and current approaches and theories and to enhance their understanding of the sociocultural factors that affect how we discuss, approach, and treat these types of psychological distress. As such, consideration of sociocultural factors will infuse the three-volume set. The encyclopedia will consist of approximately 450 entries (essays), arranged alphabetically within three volumes.
