Eucharist as the Gift of Political Language
  • Jason M. Smith
  • Coming soon
  • Expected online publication date:
    December 2026
    Print publication:
    31 December 2026
  • In a time of intractable political division, what resources can theology provide to bridge seemingly unbridgeable gaps? Jason M. Smith here proposes that one of the foundational acts of the Christianity-the Eucharist-can serve as a potent common symbol for mutual political reflection and action. Exploring new ways of thinking about the mystery of the presence of Christ in the Eucharist, notably 'transdonation' and 'transcorporation,' he demonstrates how God's presence in material things calls us to new ways of sharing our world together. Smith links eucharistic theology to political theology by treating the rite as a source for political reflection and judgment. He demonstrates how, in the bread and wine, we find the gift of a new common language by which we might seek a true common good. His study makes the traditional language of Eucharistic theology accessible and invites new theological responses to universal questions.

Expecting to Fail
  • Why States Coerce Insincerely
  • Phil Haun
  • Coming soon
  • Expected online publication date:
    December 2026
    Print publication:
    31 December 2026
  • Statecraft often appears irrational. Why do states issue ultimatums they anticipate will be rejected? Expecting to Fail resolves this puzzle by introducing the concept of 'insincere coercion' – a strategic process whereby states adopt coercive strategies not to reach compromise, but as an instrumental means of achieving broader foreign policy goals through brute force. Utilizing a militarized conflict model and an original Coercion in Interstate Militarized Conflict (CIMC) dataset, this book demonstrates that insincere coercion is a rational tool used to mobilize international and domestic support, make examples of targets, or restore deterrence. Featuring detailed case studies of the Falklands War, the Gulf War, the 2003 invasion of Iraq, and the Second Lebanon War, Phil Haun offers a thoughtful reconsideration of the relationship between threats and brute force. Essential for scholars and practitioners alike, this work exposes the 'tragic utility of violence' in an uncertain international landscape.

    31 December 2026
  • Why do we add a laughing emoji when nothing's funny? Why does texting 'k' feel colder than texting 'ok'? And what does all the jargon mean in social gaming? Jenny Lederer explores how our everyday digital conversations -texts, tweets, emojis, vlogs, and dating apps-are reshaping language and social life. Far from being trivial, online talk offers a living laboratory for understanding how humans create meaning, negotiate identity, and build relationships in a connected world. Blending traditional, cognitive, and digital linguistic theory with real-world examples, App Chat invites readers to see their own digital communication in a new light. Every LOL, emoji, and ghosted text reveals something deeper about how communication works, both online and off. Playful yet rigorous, this book is perfect for students curious about language, linguistic theory, culture, and technology, as well as anyone who's ever wondered: how does the medium of communication shape the message communicated?

History's Most Revolutionary Innovation
  • AI and Its Origins and Impact
  • Victor Menaldo
  • Coming soon
  • Expected online publication date:
    December 2026
    Print publication:
    31 December 2026
  • In History's Most Revolutionary Innovation, Victor Menaldo shows that America's AI dominance was not an accident of entrepreneurial culture or free markets. It was engineered — through four decades of bipartisan reforms to intellectual property, antitrust, telecommunications, and trade policy that quietly built the legal and economic scaffolding the digital economy required. Situating AI within the lineage of previous general purpose technologies like steam engines, electricity, and the microchip, and tracing its full arc from semiconductors to smartphones to large language models, Menaldo shows how a handful of dominant firms simultaneously captured outsized returns and spread innovation across global supply chains — and asks what happens now that the US, China, and the EU are retreating into competing, gated technology regimes. The result is the first comprehensive account of where AI came from, why its benefits have been uneven, and what will determine whether the AI revolution lifts living standards.

The Last Temptation
  • External Intervention in the Israel-Palestine Conflict
  • Rory Miller, Ciarán Ó Cuinn
  • Coming soon
  • Expected online publication date:
    December 2026
    Print publication:
    31 December 2026
  • Why have states continued to intervene in the Israel-Palestine conflict? How have those interventions helped shape the current crisis, and is a better way of engagement possible? Exploring the role of colonial mandates, super-power rivalries and multilateral peace processes, this book considers how states, regional organizations and international institutions have influenced the conflict since 1967. Rory Miller and Ciarán Ó Cuinn explore what these interventions have achieved, where they have fallen short, and why they continue to matter both on the ground and around the world. As the conflict continues to dominate the international diplomatic and political agenda, Miller and Ó Cuinn propose a new framework for external intervention. Building on the 'Parity, then Peace' concept, this approach seeks to ensure that the core issues of the conflict are dealt with on the basis of equality.

The Dynamics of Experience

  • Contributing to contemporary debates in phenomenological psychopathology and enactive psychiatry, this book argues that a comprehensive account of mental illness and its treatment requires engagement with subjectivity. It advances an enactive model of the mind that articulates the dynamics of lived experience and provides an integrative framework for psychiatric research and clinical practice. Recentering subjectivity, the book outlines a more unified and productive direction for the field aimed at psychiatrists, neuroscientists, and other mental health professionals Organized into two parts, Part I examines psychiatry's historical movement toward objectivity and the consequences of this shift, offering the conceptual resources needed to critically address-and move beyond—the concerns that motivated it. Part II develops a positive vision for an enactive psychiatry structured around the Nested States Model (NSM), demonstrating how the NSM can help guide both clinical practice and research towards a more comprehensive understanding of psychiatric disorders.

Part III broadens the discussion to interfaces between morphology and other areas of linguistics and cognitive science, extending DM's reach well beyond core language components. Each chapter focuses on different theoretical issues, as well as empirical phenomena across a variety of languages. Filling a crucial gap in the domain of morphology, this volume is an essential resource for anyone who wants to understand the depth and scope of Distributed Morphology research.

Seeking Anticolonial Synergies
  • The Promises and Paradoxes of Decolonizing Higher Education
  • Michalinos Zembylas
  • Coming soon
  • Expected online publication date:
    December 2026
    Print publication:
    31 December 2026
  • How can universities meaningfully confront their colonial legacies without reproducing new divisions or empty gestures? This book offers a timely and original response by rethinking decolonization in higher education through the lens of anticolonial synergy, relational ethics, and coalitional politics. Bringing critical traditions into dialogue – such as decolonial theory, intersectionality, and critical social thought – Michalinos Zembylas shows how tensions around land, knowledge, identity, and justice can become productive rather than paralyzing. Structured in two parts, it first develops a conceptual framework for working across difference and then applies it through close engagement with influential anticolonial thinkers including Frantz Fanon, Amílcar Cabral, Enrique Dussel, and María Lugones. Grounded in real-world examples from universities in Europe, North America, and beyond, the text combines theoretical depth with practical relevance. It is essential reading for scholars, educators, students, and university leaders, seeking more just, solidaristic, and politically grounded futures for higher education.

Multilateral Intelligence Cooperation in Africa

  • In recent decades, organisations such as the African Union have developed significant intelligence capabilities. Yet, existing research on intelligence in the Global South remains limited, and African intelligence institutions are understudied, their innovations under-recognised, and their challenges under-theorised. Tunji Namaiko focuses on the Continental Early Warning System (CEWS), whose operationalisation started in 2006, arguing that this system represents the most ambitious, integrated, and wide-ranging form of multilateral intelligence cooperation in the Global South. Namaiko demonstrates that despite sovereignty concerns, African states have institutionalised intelligence cooperation in a way that links intelligence directly to conflict prevention and peacebuilding, rather than merely to foreign policy or military objectives. This study connects theory, policy, and practice, offering new insights into how intelligence functions in regional integration processes.

  • Bernard Spolsky is one of the most influential figures in applied linguistics and sociolinguistics. Bringing together a distinguished international team of scholars, this book explores how Spolsky's groundbreaking ideas have shaped contemporary thinking across language policy, educational linguistics, family language policy, and language revitalization. Organized into four thematic sections, its twenty chapters offer fresh reflections on Spolsky's seminal contributions and how they have shaped their understanding and work, from his widely cited model of language policy and his insights into multilingual families, to his work on minorities' language rights, language testing, and the revitalization of Indigenous and Jewish languages. Together, the chapters illuminate both the breadth and depth of Spolsky's scholarship, demonstrating how his theories continue to inspire new generations of researchers. This volume stands as both a tribute to his remarkable legacy and a forward-looking exploration of emerging directions in the field.

Augustine on the Mystery of Christ and the Sacramental Economy of Salvation

  • Augustine on the Mystery of Christ and the Sacramental Economy of Salvation explores how one of the most influential thinkers of western Christianity, Augustine of Hippo, thinks about God's presence and activity in this world. It explores how Augustine understands God's purpose for creating the world, the value of creation, and how God brings coherence to all things by his love and mercy on display in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Contrary to interpretations that ascribe to Augustine a dualistic pattern of thought which sets inner, spiritual, and eternal over against outer, material, and temporal things, this book argues that like the parts of a speech, created things give expression for Augustine to the coherence of God's saving intentions for the world. In the sacred signs (i.e., sacraments) of creation, Scripture, and the Church, God reveals and gives himself to human persons so that by the sacrificial death and glorious resurrection of Jesus they might in turn be adopted as members of Christ and his Body, the Church.

    31 December 2026
  • Why do people support or resist climate solutions? And what actually moves societies from concern to action? This book brings together leading scholars in psychology to answer these urgent questions. Spanning cognition, emotion, values, misinformation, social norms, identity, culture, decision-making, and collective action, it offers the most comprehensive synthesis to date of the psychological forces shaping climate outcomes. Moving beyond abstract debates, the volume focuses explicitly on solutions: how to increase public support for effective policy, counter polarization and conspiracy beliefs, leverage social norms, mobilize social movements, and design interventions that bridge individual behaviors and systemic change. Each chapter combines rigorous scientific evidence with clear implications for practice, culminating in a policy-oriented summary for practitioners. Accessible yet authoritative, this work is an essential resource for anyone seeking a science-based roadmap to advancing effective and equitable climate action. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.
