This multi-perspective Research Handbook provides a clear pathway
through the nonprofit governance research field, pushing beyond the
borders of current theory to expand and deepen the analytical
framework for nonprofit governance. It offers an analysis of the
basics including definitions, organizational forms and levels of
governance, and takes a critical approach towards the normative and
prescriptive tendencies in much of contemporary governance
scholarship. Â Divided into four distinctly thematic parts,
contributors provide an in-depth review of the last 20 years,
building on the foundations of classical contributions and further
exploring new theoretical approaches, while examining the
governance challenges of diverse types of organizations, including
those from both developed and developing countries. Future
challenges including multilevel governance are expertly addressed,
and insights leading towards a unified theory are proposed. Â
This thoroughly engaging Research Handbook will be an excellent
resource for scholars in business and strategic management,
nonprofit management and civil society, interested in topics such
as nonprofit governance practice and boards of directors,
governance theory, stakeholder management, membership
organizations, foundations and hybrid organizations. Teachers of
nonprofit management will also find this invaluable as it addresses
both the core concepts and the most recent developments.

In thirty years on the front line of British policing, there is
very little that Iain Donnelly didn't do: from being a uniformed
constable on the beat in London to running counter-terrorism and
surveillance operations, combatting child sexual exploitation and
overseeing the investigation of the most serious crimes. During
that time, he saw the job change irrevocably, to the point where
the public no longer knows what to expect from the police and the
police service no longer knows what to expect of itself. Tango
Juliet Foxtrot - police code for 'the job's fucked' - reveals how
constant political meddling and a hostile media narrative have had
a devastating impact on the morale of police officers and their
ability to protect the public. With the organisation cut by 20,000
officers and 23,000 police staff, only 7 per cent of reported crime
now results in a charge - compared with around 20 per cent ten
years ago. By turns fascinating and funny, poignant and uplifting,
this compelling account paints a vivid picture of what life is
really like for those tasked with keeping us safe - and, crucially,
explores what needs to change to secure the future of British
policing.

with no romantic prospects in sight.
Then Lulu stumbles across a collection of letters written by her
great-great-grandmother Josephine March. As she delves deeper into
the lives and secrets of the March sisters, she finds solace and
guidance, but can the words of her great-great-grandmother help
Lulu find a place for herself in a world so different from the one
Jo knew?
As uplifting and essential as Louisa May Alcott's "Little Women,"
Gabrielle Donnelly's novel will speak to anyone who's ever fought
with a sister, fallen in love with a fabulous pair of shoes, or
wondered what on earth life had in store for her.

The Synergy of Music and Image in Audiovisual Culture: Half-Heard
Sounds and Peripheral Visions asks what it means to understand
music as part of an audiovisual whole, rather than separate
components of music and film. Bringing together revised and updated
essays on music in a variety of media—including film, television,
and video games—this book explores the importance of partially
perceived and registered auditory and visual elements and cultural
context in creating unique audiovisual experiences. Critiquing
traditional models of the film score, The Synergy of Music and
Image in Audiovisual Culture enables readers across music, film,
and cultural studies to approach and think about audiovisual
culture in new ways.
Mental health law is a rapidly evolving area of practice and
research, with growing global dimensions. This work reflects the
increasing importance of this field, critically discussing key
issues of controversy and debate, and providing up-to-date analysis
of cutting-edge developments in Africa, Asia, Europe, the Americas,
and Australia. This is a timely moment for this book to appear. The
United Nations’ Convention on the Rights of Persons with
Disabilities (2006) sought to transform the landscape in which
mental health law is developed and implemented. This Convention,
along with other developments, has, to varying degrees, informed
sweeping legislative reforms in many countries around the world.
These and other developments are discussed here. Contributors come
from a wide range of countries and a variety of academic
backgrounds including ethics, law, philosophy, psychiatry, and
psychology. Some contributions are also informed by lived
experience, whether in person or as family members. The result is a
rich, polyphonic, and sometimes discordant, account of what mental
health law is and what it might be. The Handbook is aimed at mental
health scholars and practitioners as well as students of law, human
rights, disability studies, and psychiatry, and campaigners and
law- and policy-makers.
While all the wolves in the valley are busy preparing for the for
the big Howling Ceremony, Little Wolf is afraid to use his voice.
Little Wolf thinks he'll never find his howl - but then some wise
words from Big Wolf remind him that even the smallest voice can
make the sweetest sound. An inspiring, heartfelt tale for little
pups everywhere about having the courage to find your own voice -
even if it makes you stand out from the pack. From NUMBER ONE
bestselling author-illustrator, Peter Donnelly.
This book compares the different expressions of, and outcomes from,
banking nationalism in two European countries to draw wider
conclusions about the consequences for Banking Union in Europe and
to show how national governments deal (or fail to deal) with
international commitments. It reveals how and why one case - Spain
- managed to tackle failing banks within EU Banking Union
regulations even before they became written in EU law, while the
other - Italy - had more persistent problems. The book argues that
Spain demonstrates a successful case of liberal economic
nationalism, typified by aggressive, early state intervention to
restructure Spanish banks, and help from the European Stability
Mechanism even in the face of local political opposition. Italy,
meanwhile, suffered from the weaker, delayed intervention which
forced it to confront European institutions with demands for
special treatment as a means of externalizing its own internal
weakness. This book will be of key interest to scholars, students
and professionals in economic policy, Economic and Monetary Union
and Banking Union in Europe, European and global governance,
European/EU studies, European public policy, European public
administration and EU law, as well as professionals working in the
banking sector.
This innovative study examines the Olympic programme from a
critical feminist perspective, to shed new light on the issues of
gender and inclusion at the Olympic Games and in the Olympic
Movement. Incorporating both quantitative and qualitative data, the
book identifies and analyzes the changes - and remaining gender
differences - made on the Olympic Programmes for London 2012, and
each of the subsequent Summer and Winter Olympic Games (Sochi 2014,
Rio 2016, and Pyeongchang 2018), as well as the Tokyo 2020 and
Beijing 2022 Games. The book draws on the IOC's own publications,
information from International and National Sport Federations, and
media sources to describe and explain the IOC's slow and uneven
progress toward gender equality at the Olympic Games. This is
important reading for any student, researcher, practitioner or
policy maker with an interest in the Olympic Games, sport studies,
gender studies, women's sport or major events.
