Sommario/riassunto

This substantial collection of sixteen original papers is one of a number of publishing ventures to have recently marked the centenary of the publication of G. E. Moore's Principia Ethica. It is not primarily a historical enterprise. Evidently what the editors have encouraged contributors to provide are cutting edge contributions to contemporary metaethics that engage with Moorean themes and concerns in ways that make the continuing relevance of those themes manifest. And this,



to. an impressive extent, is precisely what most of them have delivered. . . . This is a rewarding collection of pape

Sommario/riassunto

This e-book aims to explore the uses of stories as data by researchers into inter-organizational collaboration and the kinds of insights gained in such "storied" approaches. It is generally agreed that, at their most



foundational, stories are a way of sense-making, a way of understanding a present, preserving or changing a past and dreaming a future. Inter-organizational collaborations, and the relationships they engender, are also enacted along temporal dimensions and as such, provide a promising space for researching the emergence, use and role that stories and storytelling plays in creating

Sommario/riassunto

A free open access ebook is available upon publication. Learn more at www.luminosoa.org. As conceptualized throughout this richly illustrated book, the Bastille Effect represents the unique ways that former prisons and detention centers are transformed, both physically and culturally. In their afterlives, these sites deliver critiques of political imprisonment and the sustained efforts to hold perpetrators accountable for state violence. However, for that narrative to surface, the sites are cleansed of their profane past, and in some cases clergy are even enlisted to perform purifying rituals that grant the sites a new place identity as memorials. For example, at Villa Grimaldi, a former detention and torture center in Santiago, Chile, activists condemn the brutal Pinochet dictatorship by honoring the memory of victims, allowing the space to emerge as a ";park for peace."; Throughout the Southern Cone of Latin America, and elsewhere around the globe, carceral sites have been dramatically repurposed into places of enlightenment that offer inspiring allegories of human rights. Interpreting the complexities of those common threads, this book weaves together a broad range of cultural, interdisciplinary, and critical thought to offer new insights into the study of political imprisonment, collective memory, and postconflict societies.
