Advanced Information Open Access chapters HR & organizational behaviour Aesthetics and Style in Strategy Advances in Strategic Management, Volume 42 Editors Gino Cattani Leonard N. Stern School of Business, USA Simone Ferriani University of Bologna & City University London, Italy & UK Frédéric Godart INSEAD, France Stoyan V Sgourev ESSEC Business School, France Synopsis This book contains an Open Access chapter Scholarship in management and strategy is paying increasing attention to the domain of aesthetics. Companies routinely make aesthetic choices and there is growing recognition that aesthetic considerations are fundamental for successful performance in competitive markets. Stylistically sophisticated products may appeal to demanding customers, yielding higher profit margins. Style and beauty can also be applied toward enriching organizational cultures, informing leadership visions or motivating employees to defy conventions in designing new products. Aesthetics and Style in Strategy constitutes the first systematic survey of the interface between the aesthetic and strategic domains. Motivated by the rise of aestheticism in contemporary culture, it lays the foundations for an “aesthetic” turn in strategy, which interrogates the use of aesthetic features as a source of competitive advantage and provides examples of connecting design and engineering, style and technology. The “aesthetic turn” is not simply about creating value, but about sharing value among employees and infusing organizational activities with a purpose that transcends principles of efficiency. Volume 42 of Advances in Strategic Management documents the variety of ways in which the useful and the beautiful can be brought together, making a valuable contribution to the sustainability of business in the 21st century.

Advanced Information Sociology Black Metal, Trauma, Subjectivity and Sound: Screaming the Abyss Emerald Studies in Metal Music and Culture Author Jasmine Hazel Shadrack University of Northampton, UK Synopsis Black Metal, Trauma, Subjectivity and Sound: Screaming the Abyss weaves together trauma, black metal performance and disability into a story of both pain and freedom. Drawing on her years as a black metal guitarist, Jasmine Hazel Shadrack uses autoethnography to explore her own experiences of gender-based violence, misogyny, and the healing power of performance. This profoundly personal book offers a detailed explanation of autoethnography, followed by a careful exposition of the relationship between metal and gender, considering - among other things - how women are engaged with by metal music culture. After examining the various waves of black metal and how this has impacted black metal theory, the book moves on to consider female performers and performance as catharsis, including a discussion of the author's work as guitarist and vocalist with the black metal band Denigrata and her alter-ego, the 'antlered priestess' Denigrata Herself. The book concludes with some thoughts on acquired disability, freedom and peace. The book includes a foreword from eminent gender researcher Rosemary Lucy Hill, a guest section from metal scholar Amanda DiGioia, an epilogue from Rebecca Lamont-Jiggens (a legal pracademic specialising in disability), suggestions of sources of help for those in abusive relationships and further reading for those wishing to learn more about black metal theory.

Advanced Information Education The Bologna Reform in Ukraine: Learning Europeanisation in the Post- Soviet Context Author Iryna Kushnir Nottingham Trent University, UK Synopsis The Bologna Process is one of the most well-known and influential European projects for cooperation in the field of higher education. Through an in-depth examination of higher education actors and policy instruments in the case of the implementation of Bologna in Ukraine, this book aims to analyse the process of the Bologna reform in Ukraine and investigate Bologna as a case of Europeanisation in the post-Soviet context. Collating findings that suggest that the Bologna reform in Ukraine has been developing primarily as an interrelationship between policy continuity and change, the author demonstrates how the old practices and new innovations in Bologna have experienced a layered interaction and a form of policy learning by which the old and new intertwine. Viewing this process as a gradual, somewhat messy and creative build-up of minor innovations by different higher education actors, this book showcases how the accumulation of these innovations led to more fundamental changes, and the beginning of the emergence of a more shared method of higher education policy-making in contrast to the previously centrally governed Ukraine. In turn shedding light on the broader process of Europeanisation in the post-Soviet context, this book reveals a process by which change and the continuity are not mutually exclusive, but rather closely interconnected.

Advanced Information HR & organizational behaviour Business Models and Cognition New Horizons in Managerial and Organizational Cognition Editors Kristian J. Sund Roskilde University, Denmark Robert J. Galavan Maynooth University, Ireland Marcel Bogers University of Copenhagen, Denmark Synopsis The concept of the business model has become very popular in the strategy and innovation literature's. Recent research has acknowledged its cognitive underpinnings, its status as a mental construct, and has highlighted how managers’ cognitive and social sense-making patterns influence business model design and how shared logics enable innovation. Yet, the specific cognitive underpinnings of business models, though often mentioned, are rarely explicitly studied. Business Models and Cognition addresses this gap by focusing directly on intersections between business model studies and cognitive studies. Gathering an international, multidisciplinary team of business model and cognition scholars, this book not only identifies surprising connections between these two existing literature's, but also offers new reflections on future avenues of research for both in order to explore the cognitive foundations of business modelling. For its interdisciplinary scope, scholarly rigor, and novel insights, this fourth volume of the New Horizons in Managerial and Organizational Cognition is a must-read for scholars and students of business, strategy and cognition, and it is of keen interest to executives and managers eager to reflect critically on their own understanding of the “business model” as a concept.

Advanced Information Accounting & finance Contemporary Issues in Public Sector Accounting and Auditing Contemporary Studies in Economic and Financial Analysis, Volume 105 Editors Simon Grima University of Malta, Malta Engin Boztepe Ardahan University, Turkey Synopsis Despite their broad scope and importance, publications related to public sector accounting and auditing have a limited framework, and do not account for the significant variances in public sector accounting and auditing systems between countries and different subsectors of government. The editors of this book have filled this gap by compiling a collection that combines different aspects of public sector accounting and auditing within a single book. Pooling together existing public sector accounting and auditing practices between countries and preparing a comparative analysis of those practices, the authors analyze the role of the public sector accounting and auditing holistically, and provide a platform to enable financially sustainable policy making and proper assessment of the relevance of accounting frameworks across the globe. The chapters chronicle the strength and weakness of public sector accounting, auditing and systems, and also critically examine the approaches, recording methods, and international regulations which determine how they operate. Providing a comprehensive account which brings a wide range of countries to the forefront in terms of both comparability and accountability, this study shines a light on the differences in accounting systems between states, and provides timely and accurate information to equip readers to minimize those differences.

Advanced Information Marketing Corporate Financial Distress: Restructuring and Turnaround Author Alberto Tron Bocconi University Synopsis Financial distress in corporations is a frequent phenomenon, particularly during times of national and international economic crises; but this can be used as an opportunity and incentive to implement a systematic process of reorganization and revitalization of a business. These plans for recovery can lead to future successes and sustainability rather than just a fix to ensure survival of the business. Crises, if managed promptly from a strategic point of view, can lead to pragmatic changes and bring new value to the company, avoiding market foreclosure and the negative social consequences. Corporate Financial Distress, Restructuring and Turnaround identifies a recovery plan, monitoring, deployment and provides tools to direct economic crises towards financial success in the future and financial stability in the short term. An analysis scheme has been developed and is provided to help measure economic, financial and strategic performance with the why, how and what in relation to the recovery plan. A model for the detection and evaluation of the economic-financial performance implemented by an execution of a recovery plan and a set of indicators for evaluating the variables activated by the process of strategic change are identified. Tron uses alert analysis perspective to examine crises and recovery in business to outline discontinuity with the past in order to address strategic organizational changes and lead the financial process of rehabilitation towards success.

Advanced Information Education Crowd-Sourced Syllabus: A Curriculum for Resistance Emerald Points Author Leanne McRae Independent Scholar, Australia Synopsis Curating the contributions of Twitter users via hashtags, crowd-sourced syllabi respond to evolving crises and critical questions in real time, resulting in living materials for educators, scholars and students. This book showcases how crowd-sourced syllabi are filling a gap in educational efficacy by providing access to forgotten, hidden, unsanctioned and unpopular resources. Recognising that educational institutions are no longer able to provide the timely and critical response to emergent situations that punctuate the everyday, Leanne McRae invites readers to re-assess the tools and frames that determine how meaning is made, and consider how by rethinking the way that syllabi are constructed, we might resist the limitations of our curriculums. By reading this book we learn how the crowd-sourced syllabus cultivates possibilities for a double refusal – the refusal to be dominated, as well as a refusal to dominate. This book is insightful reading for teachers, scholars and students who are interested in how to utilise, contribute to, and circulate the crowd-sourced syllabus in order to deepen the range, type and immediacy of resources available to us.

Advanced Information Education Curriculum Making in Europe: Policy and Practice Within and Across Diverse Contexts Editors Mark Priestley University of Stirling, UK Daniel Alvunger Linnaeus University, Sweden Stavroula Philippou University of Cyprus, Cyprus Tiina Soini Universities of Tampere and Eastern Finland, Finland Synopsis Propelled by pressing demands for particular forms of citizenship and pressure to boost economic competiveness, in the context of profound social, political and technological changes, recent global trends in education have included the emergence of new forms of curriculum policy. Addressing a gap in the literature, this book investigates the ways in which curriculum policy is influenced, formulated, and enacted in a number of countries-cases in Europe, amidst such global dynamics. Exploring curriculum policy and practice across the European geopolitical context, this important collection uses the concept of ‘curriculum making’ as an analytical tool to explore the processes and phases of curriculum policy reform experienced across countries. Drawing first on international perspectives and then presenting a series of country case studies, written by internationally recognised curriculum specialists, the chapters utilize a common conceptual framework for understanding curriculum making as an activity that occurs across multiple layers of educational systems. By mobilizing the concept of curriculum making, the editors uncover how practices emerge from a continual interplay of the global and local. Concluding with a comparative analysis of the contextual factors that shape curricular practices in different contexts, this book is a must-have resource for educational policy makers and researchers across the globe.

Advanced Information Economics Economically Sustainable Development: Practical Models for Long-Term NGO Viability Emerald Points Author Raif Shwayri SUNY J.W. Ryan Fellow for International Education, France Synopsis Development projects, nearly always all hope and optimism at their inception, have often failed to maintain their impetus and impact in the long run. This is usually because they have failed from the outset to account for how imbalances of power, legacies of colonialism and global wealth inequalities can hamper their staying power. These hurdles have only become greater in the wake of Covid-19. Drawing on over twenty-seven years of experience on both the front lines and the corporate and business sides of international development, Raif Shwayri offers practical models for navigating the major structural and strategic problems currently facing the workers and organizations who strive to make significant, long-lasting changes in developing countries. Shwayri’s new models emerge from his unique insights into the limitations of common approaches to structuring and monitoring initiatives, and they emphasize the crucial importance of vocational education, collaboration with business, and higher education and research for keeping an organization fresh and focussed. For its combination of industry-level analysis with insights gained from a wealth of personal professional experience, Economically Sustainable Development is a must-read not only for researchers in international development, but also for policymakers and practitioners struggling to come to terms with the state of an industry in a time of global economic crisis.
