This book examines how Ukraine's agricultural system can move from resource-intensive production toward more sustainable, resilient, and agroecological pathways. It shows why this transition matters not only for Ukraine, but also for global food security.

Combining agricultural economics, environmental governance, and resource management, the volume offers an integrated account of the forces reshaping Ukrainian agriculture. It analyzes the country's natural resource base-chernozem soils, water systems, forests, and biodiversity-alongside the historical evolution of farming structures, land policy, and the environmental and social trade-offs of industrial agriculture. It also situates these issues within the wider context of war, post-war recovery, and the strategic choices that will shape the future of Ukrainian agriculture. The book addresses soil degradation, nutrient imbalances, pollution, war-related contamination, climate risks, and landscape fragmentation, while also examining how digital and precision technologies, sustainability metrics, data systems, reporting frameworks, climate finance, and scenario analysis can support a more governable transition. By linking environmental diagnosis with policy design, investment priorities, and institutional change, the book offers readers a clear framework for understanding both the vulnerabilities of the current model and the pathways to long-term agricultural resilience.

This book will appeal to scholars, students, policymakers, and practitioners in agricultural economics, environmental policy, sustainable development, rural studies, and food system governance.

This book presents a comprehensive and innovative analysis of decarbonisation and the reshaping of risk in contemporary financial and institutional systems. It develops a multidimensional approach that integrates finance, behavioural dynamics and governance within ongoing technological and climate transformations. The novelty of the volume lies in reframing decarbonisation as a structural reconfiguration of risk, rather than merely a regulatory or reporting challenge. It emphasises the fact that research and analysis of environmental, sustainability, and governance (ESG) dynamics are gaining centre stage in the academic sphere, but the problem of low transparency, and more specifically the lack of disclosure, is under-estimated, and the topic has gained insufficient attention to date.

The book offers an in-depth description of the different approaches to transition and climate risk regulation through the critical analysis of the actions implemented by the main regulatory authorities and introduces a comprehensive analysis of climate risks and related scenarios using stress testing. It rethinks the concepts of risk, profit, and responsibility in the context of a pro-environmental attitude and adopts an interdisciplinary approach by exploring ESG issues from a quantitative, institutional, and behavioural perspective. This volume examines the transition and the costs connected with decarbonisation, focusing on the problems of disclosure and reporting, and considers the role of financial innovation and data-driven technologies in shaping transition dynamics, while developing a co-evolutionary framework linking risk, responsibility, and institutional design.

The book is therefore positioned as a key reference for academics, advanced students, and researchers concerned with decarbonisation, transition risk, sustainable finance, and the evolving governance of financial and institutional systems.

Youth, Disability, and Resistance offers a powerful account of how young disabled people across Europe are reshaping disability activism and reimagining the future of social change. Drawing on rich empirical research, Miro Griffiths examines why activism matters to young disabled people, what restricts their participation, how social movements can become more inclusive, what forms of resistance are needed to challenge unjust social worlds, and what needs to be considered regarding the future of disabled people's resistance practices.

It is argued that young disabled activists are not marginal within disabled people's social movements. Their participation and influence are essential to the renewal, sustainability, and transformative potential of disabled people's resistance. Young disabled people's activism emerges as both defensive and world-making - protecting hard-won rights while also imagining accessible, inclusive, and interdependent futures. Griffiths shows how participation is shaped by hostility, inaccessibility, financial precarity, and exclusions around age and expertise, while also highlighting the importance of hope, knowledge exchange, collective solidarity, and intersectional organising.

Combining conceptual depth with activist insight, this book positions disability activism as a creative and disruptive force. It will be essential reading for scholars and students of disability studies, youth studies, sociology, and social movement studies, as well as for activists, civil society organisations, and policymakers committed to justice and liberation.

What are executive functions and why are they important? How can they be developed effectively in children and adults? Many children, adolescents, and adults experience difficulties and disorders that stem from poor executive functioning, such as ADHD, dyslexia, or behavioral problems.

• It describes the main executive functions, such as concentration, impulse control, emotional self-regulation, and processing speed, among others.
• It contains 100 exercises to stimulate the brain in a simple and fun way. Enhancing your executive functions is within your reach.

Take advantage of the opportunity this book offers you: achieve a satisfactory adaptation to your environment and those around you.

This volume explores how E.J. Lowe's metaphysics relates to various issues in philosophical theology and the philosophy of religion.

Lowe's views on ontological issues have direct implications for issues in philosophical theology as well as philosophy of religion. Lowe's work is systematic in nature, and he built an extremely sophisticated ontological system in The Four-Category Ontology. The chapters in this volume are concerned with the centrality of having a proper ontology for our understanding of the core issues in philosophical theology. This means that we need to engage in ground-level debates about the ontology of theological issues. The chapters explore topics such as the existence of God, divine causality, divine presence, divine action, divine temporality, dualism, and Christology.

E.J. Lowe's Metaphysics and Philosophical Theology will appeal to scholars and graduate students working in philosophy of religion, metaphysics, and philosophical theology.

Pluralism and Progress in Economics analyzes the dynamics of growth research by introducing the concept of research routines - meso-level patterns of communal practice functionally coordinated by symbolic representations.

This book tracks the development of neoclassical growth theory through four distinct stages: exploration, extension, elaboration, and exploitation. It argues that scientific change in growth research is a processual development driven by diaphoric learning, where a community of researchers creatively uses existing conceptual tools to grasp previously unrecognized causal dependencies in data. This book further evaluates the conceptions of scientific progress, identifying the limitations of conventional criteria in distinguishing genuine advancement in economics from analytical "game-playing." Pawel Kawalec proposes an ontic criterion of intensive progress, which validates an emergent research routine based on its isolation of ontologically novel causal structures. By distinguishing between derivational and ontological unification, and drawing on Robert Solow's criteria of model choice, this book defends progressive pluralism and piecemeal realism. It concludes that the coexistence of diverse models is not a sign of relativism but a mature response to the world's ontic complexity, providing a robust "library of models" essential for contextualized economic applications.

This book will be of interest to experts and graduate students specializing in economic growth models, the history of twentieth-century economics, the history and philosophy of science, and science and technology studies.

This textbook explores the meaning of good governance and sustainable development in the present-day context of a growing planetary crisis, socio-economic polarisation, and politicisation of knowledge.

Part 1 sets the stage by exploring theories of power, network governance, and global governance. Meri Juntti contrasts prevalent and emerging framings to arrive at a definition of sustainable development as a transformation encompassing the economic system, societal values, and the relationship of humanity with nature, and identifies distinct approaches and solutions for advancing this. Part 2 delves into the twin global issues of climate change and food security. Their drivers and manifestations are examined in detail and a range of governance responses - from global strategies and policies through to local-level case studies - are explored in the light of earlier theorisations. Part 3 focuses on lessons for good governance and sets out five key challenges that governance for sustainable development needs to negotiate, as well as the four principles that are central to its success. A concluding chapter considers what good governance for sustainable development could mean in practice.

Balancing theory with real-world examples, and featuring learning outcomes, further reading, and links to relevant media content, Governing for Sustainable Development will be a highly valuable resource for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students of sustainable development, geography, public policy, politics, and international relations.

Over the past three decades, Central and Eastern Europe has experienced rapid economic transformation, accelerated by accession to the European Union and deeper integration into global financial markets. While improved access to credit has supported rising living standards, it has also increased households' exposure to financial fragility when economic shocks occur.

This book investigates the financial fragility of households in the region, offering new insights into how households cope with economic shocks and structural change. Despite shared experience of post-socialist transformation, Central and Eastern European countries display significant economic, social, and institutional diversity. This raises important questions: Do households across the region differ in their levels of financial fragility? Which socio-demographic groups are most vulnerable? What factors shape household resilience to economic shocks?

Combining conceptual discussion with comparative empirical analysis, the book examines the determinants and dynamics of household financial fragility across the region. It explores changes in household financial conditions - including consumption patterns, debt dynamics, savings behaviour, and subjective financial well-being - and identifies cross-country differences in vulnerability using comparative and cluster-based approaches. The analysis also discusses how external shocks, including the global financial crisis of 2008 and the COVID-19 pandemic, have shaped household financial stability. By linking structural transformation, institutional context, and household-level outcomes, the book fills an important gap in the literature and offers new insights into the challenges of strengthening household resilience in the face of economic shocks.

This book will be of interest to researchers, policymakers, and students in economics, finance, consumer economics, and European studies who seek a deeper understanding of household financial fragility in Central and Eastern Europe.

In an era where evidence-based policymaking defines the credibility of governance, Value of Statistical Life in India offers a landmark contribution to the economics of risk, labour welfare, and regulatory design. This ground-breaking volume presents one of the most rigorous empirical estimations of the Value of Statistical Life (VSL) in the Indian context, addressing a critical gap in public policy analytics.

Focusing on occupational risks within India's manufacturing sector-particularly in Gujarat- the book systematically examines compensating wage differentials (CWD), insurance mechanisms, and Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) frameworks.

Banal Fascism Online: Weaponizing the "Everyday" for Extreme Ends offers a novel lens through which to research, conceptualize, and understand fascism and its place in today's political culture. It allows space for its authors to explore fascism as it exists in the digital world, outside the rigid boundaries of historically recognized fascist states.

The digital seeps into every avenue of the political and social, and thus offers a useful framing for analyzing the inherent banality of fascism. Specifically, this edited volume considers the different ways the digital world supports and structures our political and social identities: How do social media and online fora create spaces for extremist values that are perceived as mundane? What technological affordances provide fascist thought leaders access to - and influence over - various audiences? Which platforms offer the most comprehensive opportunities for anti-democratic political strategizing? As the United States and much of Europe continue to see their democratic institutions come under attack by rising fascist and authoritarian movements, this volume provides an indispensable examination of the ways fascism has not only increased in its mainstreaming and palatability, but also how it has always been integral to our societies. This groundbreaking framework and the chapters evidencing its utility offer a tangible means of identifying and ultimately combating fascist structures.

As a result of the strategic deployment of banal fascism across the globe, this volume will appeal to academics, students, politicians, journalists, and anyone concerned about the precarity of liberal democracy and its potential replacement with, at best, illiberal democracy and, at worst, fascism.

The History of Education as History of Knowledge brings together international scholars to explore how the emerging field of the history of knowledge can enrich the well-established history of education. While recent research in the history of knowledge has examined actors, practices, and institutions of knowledge, this volume is the first to focus systematically on sources and methodologies within the context of education.

Covering the modern period, the chapters investigate a wide range of case studies-from kindergartens and teachers' associations to philosophical societies and transnational transfers of solidified knowledge. Together they demonstrate how shifting perspectives on sources and methods allow historians to examine knowledge in its plural forms: produced, mediated, contested, and circulated within and beyond educational institutions.

Emphasising how knowledge is bound up with power relations, this book shows how hierarchies of gender, class, race, and ethnicity have shaped what counts as educational knowledge and how it is transmitted. In addition to empirical studies, contributors critically reflect on methodological approaches drawn from intellectual history, sociology of knowledge, praxeology, discourse analysis, and science and technology studies.

This book will appeal to scholars, students, and teachers in educational history, the history of knowledge, and related fields and will serve as an orientation for early-career researchers.
