The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Cultural Heritage and Conflict critically analyses the relationship between cultural heritage and conflict as well as the tangible and intangible remnants, traces and spaces of competing heritages and memories of the past in the present. The interdisciplinary scope of the encyclopaedia breaks new ground in the study of contemporary narratives of cultural heritage and conflict and the ways in which they broaden public understandings of the complex spacio-temporal dynamics between heritage, memory, conflict, and identity. By crossing academic, artistic and professional boundaries, the encyclopedia aims to contribute to a better understanding of the extent to which practices and discourses of heritage and conflict operate as vehicles at local, national and transnational levels.

The definitive scholarly dictionary of the Qur’an, with over two hundred entries by leading Qur’anic scholars

The Yale Dictionary of the Qur’an is a landmark English-language scholarly reference work devoted to the Qur’an, its historical context, and its interpretation.

This edited book examines what it means to conduct global fieldwork under conditions of political, technological, environmental, economic and health-related turbulence. Bringing together contributions from sociology, anthropology and criminology, it analyses how researchers approach and re-approach field sites, negotiate access, collect data, and reflect on positionality, translation, ethics and methodological adaptation in transregional contexts.

Across case studies set in East and Southeast Asia, Africa, Europe and Latin America, contributors discuss multi-sited ethnography, digital ethnography, prison interviews, research on migration, queer nightlife, power elites, medical drones, offshore labour and fieldwork with adolescents. The chapters show how borders, surveillance, platform technologies, changing funding regimes, climate pressures and post-pandemic conditions reshape qualitative research practice. Rather than offering universal approaches, the volume provides grounded methodological reflection on conducting field-based research when fields are mobile, contested or difficult to access.

By placing turbulence at the centre of analysis, this edited book contributes to debates in global sociology, methodology, decolonial perspectives, and reflexive research practice. It will interest scholars and postgraduate students working on ethnography, transnational research, field methods and the politics of knowledge production.

This open access book outlines a series of practice-based methods for undertaking research, particularly with children, young people, and marginalised groups, such as physical computing, gaming engines, virtual/digital materials, and analogue making. Drawing on case studies of research in action with hybrid arts practices and creative uses of digital media, it presents new methodologies and methods that prompt non-standard ontological positions and knowledge building, centred on creative, affective and active responses to educational and societal challenges. In the face of climate emergency and the collapse of mental health, the authors prompt us to turn to our capacity for play and inter-relational performance, integrated with our bodies and imaginations.

An invaluable read for educators at all levels, researchers, artists and designers interested in creative methodological practices beyond the binaries of quantitative and qualitative research, this groundbreaking volume reframes topics and practices from the humanities, arts, media, and education into new, interdisciplinary perspectives.

The lexicon bridges language, knowledge, and practices and indicates a catalogue of key concepts for 21st-century security. It presents an innovative catalogue of key thematic entries for security studies and practices in the 21st century. Contributions are written by both academics and practitioners, introducing not just definitions of key terms but also key applications via specific case-studies. The events of the last decades have redefined the approaches of various actors in international politics to the main security sectors: political, military, economic, environmental, and societal. Therefore, the main purpose of this lexicon is to provide an innovative didactic and analytical tool that encompasses the most essential terms and concepts in the field of security in the 21st century.

Patrick Nehr-Baseler examines late medieval texts on preparing for and accompanying a good death (artes moriendi) to determine what forms of self-care they convey and to what extent they outline specific ways of engaging with one's own future. In doing so, he combines recent research on medieval self-care with studies on the perception of time and self-positioning. Against this backdrop, he posits the hypothesis that people in the late Middle Ages understood the tense period between the present and their own death as a space for reflection and as a realm of possibilities for salvation-oriented self-care.
The starting point of the study is a textual-hermeneutic and incunabula analysis of a miscellany from the Benedictine monastery of St. Ulrich and Afra in Augsburg (1473) and its second edition from 1476. The print is characterized by a condensation of various temporal semantics of eschatology and serves as the starting point for an examination of a corpus of 33 additional incunabula and early prints published in Augsburg between 1472 and 1519. These are systematically analyzed in terms of their collection and textual contexts. In this way, the author combines the analysis of material printing contexts with questions of textual hermeneutics as well as the history of theology, piety, and media.
The author demonstrates that artes moriendi are not focused solely on individual eschatology. Within their respective contexts of printing and transmission, they develop concepts of self-care that aim both at contemplative imaginings of the future and at organizing the time remaining in one's life. At the same time, it becomes clear that anthologies and the contexts in which these works appear significantly shape the meaning of the artes moriendi, and that printers and printing houses emerge as active shapers of religious discourse. Patrick Nehr-Baseler thus contributes to a reassessment of late medieval devotional practices and demonstrates that questions of self-care and future orientation can only be historically understood through the interplay of text, materiality, and the context of printing.

This book compiles and explains the key terms and core concepts related to embodied cognition in an easy-to-navigate A?Z format. Research in embodied cognition has grown organically over the past decades, and as a result, there is an abundance of technical concepts, schools of thought, and theoretical proposals that partly overlap, partly complement, and sometimes even contradict each other. To this day, there is no overarching guiding text that attempts to provide readers with sufficient tools to make sense of this complex conceptual landscape. Filling this gap, A?Z of Embodied Cognition leads with an introductory historical essay that describes the evolution of embodied cognitive science and its scientific and philosophical contexts and predecessors. It then moves on to the A?Z entries, which showcase key technical concepts, theoretical proposals, models, and hypotheses. As a collective, these entries provide an overview of the similarities and differences between various active perspectives such as extended functionalism, ecological psychology, and the enactive approach, as well as highlighting current research challenges, questions, and debates. The entries also highlight cross-references and recommendations for further reading. Encouraging readers to critically engage with key topics in embodied cognition, this innovative book will be of great interest to students and early-career researchers of psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience, and philosophy of mind. Given the fragmented state of research in embodied cognition, the book will also be useful to more advanced practitioners in helping communicate across terminological gaps.

Drawing on a range of doctoral and collaborative case studies, Hibbert demonstrates how reflexive practice is central to authentic and resonant research. Each updated chapter presents opportunities for personal learning, growth and development in research processes, including dialogue points to encourage the reader to form their own opinions. Its all-new chapter connects insights on diversity with reflexive practice, outlining how a wide range of perspectives can help inform, shape and situate research. The book also explores avenues for future study and concludes that reflexive practice is more than a research skill: it is central to a scholarly way of life.

This book considers the issues of affordability and open education and their potential to challenge the economic constraints embedded in higher education, as well as contribute to a transformation in how higher education serves its communities.

In recent decades, the costs of higher education have become increasingly unaffordable. Globally, access to high-quality education and information has been marked by inequity, especially highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Academic libraries have long led efforts to provide access to materials, databases, technology lending, study spaces, and textbook reserve services. They also promote awareness around open educational resources (OER) and practices, which can help higher education meet its evolving needs in a complex international context. However, these OER programs often face challenges related to sustainability, diversity, equity, accessibility, and inclusion (DEIA), and assessment. This book interrogates whether libraries' ethos of access and inclusivity has been realized through these programs and identifies remaining issues. With contributions from LIS scholars worldwide, it suggests improvements in how libraries approach OER creation, decolonization of libraries and academia, and sustainable OER labour practices. Chapters include case studies, discussions on library eBook models and textbook affordability, and the intersection of OER with diversity, equity, and inclusion. It also explores the dual nature of open education as a catalyst for decolonial change or colonial continuity, and the implications for labour, research, and pedagogy in OER work. It shows that while these programs can challenge economic structures, internal contradictions and biases remain, and libraries must embrace a more radical stance towards global affordability and access.

This book will be of interest to librarians and university administrators as well as academics and students with interests in access, affordability, OER issues, collection development and management, and critical studies..

This key textbook harnesses AI to strengthen and expand writing skills through detailed, contextual critique.

Academia is facing a crisis of AI misuse. Students often use AI to bypass the writing process, getting citations for sources they haven't read, arguing based on hallucinated claims, and "polishing" drafts with inadequately developed ideas. This book transforms the narrative: AI goes from automated re-writer to writing teacher and sophisticated critique partner. The book reframes the AI-writing relationship: it steps writers through the revision process, teaching both foundational and advanced writing skills. AI is no longer an automated rewriter; it becomes a knowledgeable critique partner that identifies problems; the book then helps you evaluate a range of possible solutions. This approach demands that students think about their writing in new ways. It restores writer agency, making AI a learning tool instead of an escape or crutch. With 50 sequenced prompts that guide writers through the writing process, progressing from broad, structural concerns to narrow, line-level edits, the book offers a solution to the problem of AI misuse by offering a way to help writers learn from AI rather than risking AI rewriting that potentially changes content and makes the style more generic and abstract.

This is an ideal text for both non-native and native English speakers. It can help all academics seeking to improve their writing, including undergraduate and graduate students in courses on academic writing, rhetoric and composition, and language/literacy education.

This book presents the lived experiences of library workers in evocative and vulnerable accounts of the inhospitable norms within librarianship in the globalized 21st century. Rigorously researched, this book promotes critical examinations of librarianship and solidarity among library workers.

The nature of library work is constantly being transformed by forces in our environmental landscape such as war, reduced budgets, global pandemics, massdisinformation, censorship demands, social work- based job functions, and shifting understandings of what it means to be a librarian. Amid this tumult, librarians are engaging both themselves and their communities in the transformation of libraries. Central to this monograph is the idea that individuals can find validation and paths to recovery through voicing our lived experiences. Lived Experiences in Librarianship gives library workers the space to self- advocate and find paths to recovery from dysfunctional library workplaces by cultivating positive norms for future workers. Through inclusive and embodied qualitative research methods (e.g., autoethnography, autobiography, storytelling, reflection) and theoretical lenses (e.g., emotional labor, critical race theory, anti- oppression, decolonial feminism, intersectionality) this book will present a shared and holistic understanding of dysfunctional library structures.

This book will appeal to library science practitioners who are interested in understanding the professional and personal challenges faced by their peers. Readers may find value in comparing their experiences with other workers and in the insights into the shared challenges and unique circumstances of library workers.

This book presents a comprehensive overview of contemporary innovations, technologies, and service models shaping modern libraries. Drawing together scholarly contributions and practical case studies, it examines the application of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, RFID, blockchain, data analytics, and open access systems, alongside effective library services, user engagement initiatives, knowledge management practices, and sustainability efforts. The volume highlights the evolving role of libraries and librarians in academic success, research impact, rankings, and accreditation, offering valuable insights for library and information science professionals, researchers, and students engaged in building next?generation libraries.

This book systematically covers key domains of modern librarianship, including the application of advanced technologies, enhancement of library services, knowledge management initiatives, user engagement strategies, and sustainability practices. The chapters present empirical studies, case analyses, and action research addressing artificial intelligence adoption, RFID and blockchain implementation, digital resource usage, information literacy, research metrics, and open access initiatives. Significant findings highlight how technology?enabled services improve operational efficiency, user satisfaction, and academic outcomes, while data?driven practices support better collection development and research visibility. The volume also underscores the strategic contribution of libraries to institutional rankings and accreditation processes, and emphasizes the growing importance of ethical, inclusive, and sustainable models of service delivery. Collectively, these contributions demonstrate the library's transformation into a proactive, technology?integrated partner in teaching, learning, and research.

This book is intended for library and information science professionals, academic librarians, information managers, faculty members, researchers, policymakers, and LIS students. It will also benefit technology vendors and administrators seeking evidence?based insights into modern library technologies, service innovations, and the evolving strategic role of libraries in higher education and research environments.

This book challenges the paradigms that seek to dominate and constrain academic research.

Paradigms underpin the research environment, pushing academics to conduct research and publish their work in certain ways. Indicators of a need for paradigmatic change can be seen when existing systems are under strain, dominated by zombie paradigms that are outdated for the needs of the contemporary era but refuse to step aside. This book is situated around a series of narratives from those attempting to tackle a variety of zombies. They are book-ended by discussions around how these zombie paradigms came to be, why they need slaying, how that can be done, and what the outcome may be.

Identifying these zombies across qualitative and quantitative research, research student supervision, the publication of research, and how researchers engage with people and communities, the book offers an important resource for all those engaged in research.

Prokopis A. Christou and Christina Silver present a conceptual framework for how to best approach research in the era of AI.
