            • Confucianism and the Continuation of Anti-Enlightenment
            • Paperback
            • Xiaojie Chen / Routledge
          • In 18th-century Europe, before the “Counter-Enlightenment,” two coexisting perspectives emerged within the Enlightenment: the first was the belief that humans were endowed with the capacity to think independently, which led to the possibility of egalitarianism; the second was the restriction of the faculty’s scope of application, which argued that the people must rely on intellectuals as their new shepherds. The latter is “Anti-Enlightenment” and anti-egalitarian.

            This book argues that Neo-Confucianism showed these two Enlightenment trends after the 11th century. The imperial examination reform allowed commoners to rise to the bureaucratic elite, thereby achieving top-down “Enlightenment”. Despite the emerging elite’s claims of caring for the people, this benevolence does not expect the people to become self-sufficient adults, which brings up this book’s second theme of comparing French Revolution “Fraternity” with Confucian “Benevolence.”

            Taking “Enlightenment” and “Fraternity” as clues, the author analyses the intellectual history in four countries (China, Japan, Germany, and France), revealing not only the inherent “Anti-Enlightenment” mentality within the European Enlightenment, but also the process of “Enlightenment” commenced as early as the 11th century in China.

            This book will appeal to scholars of Enlightenment, intellectual history, and comparative study of East-West thought.

            • Criminal Law and Criminal Justice
            • Paperback
            • Amy Elkington / Routledge
          • Criminal Law and Criminal Justice: Morals and Policy goes beyond the traditional criminal law textbook and invites students to question why we criminalise certain behaviour and whether the decisions made by the courts can be justified according to legal principle, morals and policy.

            Providing an overview not only of the legal doctrine of criminal law, but also of the underpinning theory behind the legal doctrine, the book encourages critical thinking around the context behind, and implementation of, legal decisions. It applies this to current issues, such as respect for personal autonomy, prevention of domestic abuse and discouraging gang activity, whilst providing a clear overview of the law relating to actus reus, mens rea, property offences, homicide, non-fatal offences, sexual offences, accessorial liability, and defences. Using hypothetical scenarios, students will develop an understanding of why certain rules exist and then be able to critically analyse why certain behaviour is criminalised. An in-depth study of several key cases will show how the rules and theory play out in practice, and students will examine how morals and policy have influenced these decisions.

            Featuring thinking points as well as further reading suggestions, this textbook is suitable for all students of criminal law, as well as for those studying jurisprudence.

            • Debt of a Nation
            • Hardcover
            • Angela C. Tozer / University of British Columbia Press
          • Studies the link between national debt and colonialism in Canada.

            “You’ve got to speculate to accumulate.” We apply that notion to individuals in pursuit of wealth, but what about countries? The Debt of a Nation is a comprehensive history of Canada’s nineteenth-century public debt. Beginning in the 1820s, loans gave British North American governments access to unprecedented amounts of capital at low interest rates. The credit for such loans was derived from the colonial appropriation of Indigenous territories, so this process essentially created a market value for stolen land.

            Angela Tozer explores the role of public debt financing in the consolidation of the settler state, including Upper Canada’s first public debt, issued as securities on the London Stock Exchange; the unique government land tenure of Prince Edward Island and the attendant impact on Mi’kmaw homelands; and the purchase of Rupert’s Land via a loan. This history of the intimate relationship between public debt and colonization underscores the importance of the appropriation of Indigenous lands to global markets.

            • Decentralised Finance
            • Paperback
            • Loïc Sauce / Routledge
          • Since the inception of Bitcoin in 2009, cryptoassets and decentralised finance (DeFi) have become a multi-trillion-dollar industry, with a growing number of users, entrepreneurs, investment funds and institutional investors all over the world. This has led to understandably high levels of attention from scholars, the media, and policymakers, but much of the writing on decentralised finance is polarised or polemical.

            In contrast, this book provides a balanced, scholarly and sober assessment of broad questions about the very existence and purposes of decentralised finance. Drawing largely on the Austrian school of economics, particularly the ideas of Hayek and Lachmann, the book explores the stated aims of proponents of decentralised finance, particularly the goals of having decentralised governance and financial inclusion in an anonymous environment with low entry and exit barriers. Prioritising the theoretical and political aspects of decentralised finance over the financial or technological, the book considers whether these aims are realistic and whether decentralised finance can complement or substitute traditional financial mechanisms ('TradFi').

            This book will be of valuable reading for economists, political scientists and policymakers, who are engaging with these key issues around cryptocurrencies and decentralised finance.

            • Design of Fibre-Polymer Composite Structures
            • Paperback
            • João R. Correia, Thomas Keller, Jan Knippers, J. Toby Mottram, Carlo Paulotto, José Sena-Cruz, Luigi Ascione / CRC Press
          • The European Technical Specification CEN/TS 19101:2022, “Design of Fibre-Polymer Composite Structures”, constitutes a milestone for the use of fibre-polymer composites in civil engineering works. This book comprises around 400 background reports covering the most relevant paragraphs of the Technical Specification. It provides supplementary information to the Technical Specification, justifies the options that were followed and introduces references that were considered. Among other aspects, this makes it possible to assess the basis of design, the values adopted for partial factors, conversion factors and creep coefficients, provisions for structural analysis, resistance models for structural members, connections and joints, and provisions for durability and detailing. The book also identifies research needs in this field to increase knowledge of the behaviour of fibre-polymer composite structures and for possible future development of the Technical Specification towards a Eurocode standard.

            The only guide to practical fibre-polymer structural design in accordance with the principles and terminology of the structural Eurocodes, this book is ideal for professional engineers working in structural design, as well as a source of consensus information for graduate students and researchers in the area.

            • Dramatic Proverbs
            • Hardcover
            • Françoise d’Aubigné, Marquise de Maintenon, Theresa Varney Kennedy, Theresa Varney Kennedy, Paige Tierney, Françoise d’Aubigné, Marquise de Maintenon, Theresa Varney Kennedy, Theresa Varney Kennedy / Iter Press
          • This translated edition of Madame de Maintenon’s school plays showcases their emphasis on the importance of girls’ self-reliance and resilience in an accessible and engaging format for modern students.

            Madame de Maintenon’s Dramatic Proverbs provides unprecedented access to an important transitional marker between the society games of the salon and the education theater of the eighteenth century. Composed for the impoverished female pupils at the boarding school she and King Louis XIV founded at Saint-Cyr, Maintenon’s dramatic proverbs crucially reveal the values emphasized in female education at the end of the seventeenth century—a period plagued by economic crisis and growing aristocratic poverty. Some of the first to exclusively express a woman’s point of view, Maintenon’s dramatic proverbs challenged traditional female education and promoted improved conditions for women. The proverbs contributed uniquely to improvisational educational theater, inaugurating a tradition that continued well into the eighteenth century.

            This edition of the plays aims to privilege accessibility and accuracy so that twenty-first-century students can act out, interpret, and discuss these historical texts.
