Identifying the origins of innovation and project management, this
unique Handbook explains why and how the two fields have grown and
developed as separate disciplines, highlighting how and why they
are now converging. It explores the theoretical and practical
connections between the management of innovation and projects,
examining the close relationship between the disciplines. Chapters
introduce new research examining how organisations manage
innovative projects to compete in global markets and tackle some of
the immense economic, social and environmental challenges facing
societies in the 21st century. Leading scholars in the field
examine the management of innovative projects in various forms and
across diverse contexts, including R&D, new product
development, agile, collaboration, trust and ambidexterity. The
Handbook outlines efforts to cross-fertilise ideas from innovation
and project management, share and create new concepts, and borrow
theories from other disciplines to assist empirical research and
develop a more integrated research agenda, offering practical
guidance on how to manage innovative projects in real-world
settings. Comprehensive and invaluable, this Handbook is a critical
read for innovation management and project management scholars and
students. Practitioners in both fields interested in developing
their professional skills and acquiring thought leadership in a
converging field will also benefit greatly from reading this.

Invisible as the seas and oceans may be for so many of us, life as
we know it is almost always connected to, and constituted by,
activities and occurrences that take place in, on and under our
oceans. The Routledge Handbook of Ocean Space provides a first port
of call for scholars engaging in the 'oceanic turn' in the social
sciences, offering a comprehensive summary of existing trends in
making sense of our water worlds, alongside new, agenda-setting
insights into the relationships between society and the 'seas
around us'. Accordingly, this ambitious text not only attends to a
growing interest in our oceans, past and present; it is also
situated in a broader spatial turn across the social sciences that
seeks to account for how space and place are imbricated in
socio-cultural and political life. Through six clearly structured
and wide-ranging sections, The Routledge Handbook of Ocean Space
examines and interrogates how the oceans are environmental,
historical, social, cultural, political, legal and economic spaces,
and also zones where national and international security comes into
question. With a foreword and introduction authored by some of the
leading scholars researching and writing about ocean spaces,
alongside 31 further, carefully crafted chapters from established
as well as early career academics, this book provides both an
accessible guide to the subject and a cutting-edge collection of
critical ideas and questions shaping the social sciences today.
This handbook brings together the key debates defining the 'field'
in one volume, appealing to a wide, cross-disciplinary social
science and humanities audience. Moreover, drawing on a range of
international examples, from a global collective of authors, this
book promises to be the benchmark publication for those interested
in ocean spaces, past and present. Indeed, as the seas and oceans
continue to capture world-wide attention, and the social sciences
continue their seaward 'turn', The Routledge Handbook of Ocean
Space will provide an invaluable resource that reveals how our
world is a water world.
From the squares of Spain to indigenous land in Canada, protest
camps are a tactic used around the world. Since 2011 they have
gained prominence in recent waves of contentious politics, deployed
by movements with wide-ranging demands for social change. Through a
series of international and interdisciplinary case studies from
five continents, this topical collection is the first to focus on
protest camps as unique organisational forms that transcend
particular social movements' contexts. Whether erected in a park in
Istanbul or a street in Mexico City, the significance of political
encampments rests in their position as distinctive spaces where
people come together to imagine alternative worlds and articulate
contentious politics, often in confrontation with the state.
Written by a wide range of experts in the field the book offers a
critical understanding of current protest events and will help
better understanding of new global forms of democracy in action.
A Critique of Pure Teaching Methods and the Case of Synthetic
Phonics examines how research into the effectiveness of teaching
methods can and should relate to what takes place in the classroom.
The discussion brings to light some important features of the way
we classify teaching activities. The classifications are unlike
those we use in natural science - for instance, how we classify
drug dosages. This point has very important implications for what
should be considered the appropriate relationships between
educational research and classroom practice. Andrew Davis applies
the results of this discussion to the teaching of early reading,
focussing in particular on the approach known as synthetic phonics.
He provides a philosophical investigation into the nature of
reading, and into the concepts that feature in approaches to
teaching it, such as the idea of building words from letter sounds,
the nature of words themselves and reading for meaning. He
concludes with a discussion of why this matters so much, reflecting
on how stories and books can be part of a child's emerging identity
within the family. He explores how values of family life should be
weighed against the importance of achievements in school, and
argues for the claim that school reading policies of certain kinds
may have a destructive impact if they are felt to trump the private
interests of children and their families.

In Sonata Fragments, Andrew Davis argues that the Romantic sonata
is firmly rooted, both formally and expressively, in its Classical
forebears, using Classical conventions in order to convey a broad
constellation of Romantic aesthetic values. This claim runs
contrary to conventional theories of the Romantic sonata that place
this nineteenth-century musical form squarely outside inherited
Classical sonata procedures. Building on Sonata Theory, Davis
examines moments of fracture and fragmentation that disrupt the
cohesive and linear temporality in piano sonatas by Chopin, Brahms,
and Schumann. These disruptions in the sonata form are a narrative
technique that signify temporal shifts during which we move from
the outer action to the inner thoughts of a musical agent, or we
move from the story as it unfolds to a flashback or flash-forward.
Through an interpretation of Romantic sonatas as temporally
multi-dimensional works in which portions of the music in any given
piece can lie inside or outside of what Sonata Theory would define
as the sonata-space proper, Davis reads into these ruptures a
narrative of expressive features that mark these sonatas as
uniquely Romantic.
