Making strategic choices in social science research (Paperback)

GERN (Groupement Européen de Recherches sur les Normativités) is a large consortium of scientific researchers in the domain of deviance and social control, more precisely studying delinquency, penal institutions, public policies of security and the importance of penal questions in society. Today the GERN is a scientific network present in ten European countries and abroad, uniting researchers of different disciplines. Each year the GERN organizes a doctoral summer school, giving PhD students from the consortium the opportunity to present and discuss their ongoing projects and research results as well as meet young and senior researchers. With the inauguration of this Research Paper Series, the GERN intends to monitor and disseminate cutting-edge studies into European security issues, reflecting the design and result of doctoral research in the framework of the GERN. The series provides an excellent platform from which to survey key emergent topics in the field. With this series, the

European Archaeology - Identities & Migrations (Paperback)

As it appears in diverse guises - and notably as a founding narrative - the past is at the core of every functioning human society. The idea that the past can be known through scientific research has long been a fundamental challenge for western societies and for European researchers, from all disciplines concerned. Through more than four decades of outward-looking archaeological practice, the scholar, teacher and intellectual Jean-Paul Demoule has elaborated a truly global approach to European cultures and their transformations, spanning from the social inequality in Neolithic times to Indo European research to contemporary links between heritage and politics. His colleagues - British, Bulgarians, Czechs, Danes, Dutch, French, Germans, North-Americans, Spaniards, Swiss and Russians - seek to extend and enrich his vision. With contributions (written in French and in English) spanning from prehistory to the modern world, they bring in this volume new insights and data to such issues as

Turkish-Dutch and Moroccan-Dutch female professionals in social work (Paperback)

This qualitative research, carried out between 2012 and 2016 at the Utrecht University of Applied Sciences (HU) in the Netherlands, explores the experiences of newly-started Turkish-Dutch and Moroccan-Dutch female professionals in social work. The key research question was how these professionals perceive and position themselves in relation to their profession. The professionals were actively involved as co-researchers in parts of the research, doing research with peers from the same background. The last section of the research also discusses and explores the experiences of social work educators by including their perspective. The Turkish-Dutch and Moroccan-Dutch female professionals want to bring their cultural and religious background to bear on their work as professionals. They want to bring in faith and spirituality, as this is a source of strength and support for them, and attempt to stretch the 'boundaries' of what it means to be a professional. They would also like to see their

Gene and cell therapies in Europe (Hardback)

Gene and Cell Therapies in Europe: Dreaming the Future explores the exciting progress in the world of Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products(s). This book highlights that, after years of research, new medical possibilities are emerging for conditions that were previously almost untreatable. It describes the successes of cell therapy (CAR T-cells) in cancer and of gene therapy in blood diseases, like sickle cell disease and haemophilia, that go beyond symptom management and offers the prospect of a cure. The book shows the great expectations of academic researchers, the pharmaceutical industry, healthcare providers, patients, caregivers and their organisations regarding gene and cell therapy in Europe. These high hopes are in stark contrast to the slow system of legislation, regulations and reimbursement, which is still far from harmonised in the European Member States. It is uncertain how the political situation will evolve in 2025. As a result, it is difficult to predict how ATMP

This handbook is a practical manual and instruction for asking case relevant questions, searching for relevant literature, critically reflecting on research, drawing conclusions, communicating the evidence, reporting formally and implementing the evidence. The book provides information and tips, along with interactive media on the online learning platform Sofia. The authors clarify basic principles of research methodology and elaborate on di¬fferent study designs. They provide tips and tricks for searching scientific databases PubMed and Web of Science. They explain the risk of bias assessment and levels

E||scape (Paperback)

Authored by Jeroen van den Eijnde, professor of product and interior design at ArtEZ Institute of the Arts, this book explores how scientific thinking and artisanal making are inextricably linked. Based on the fact that the regulations at some universities in the Netherlands make it possible to obtain a doctoral degree with artistic work, this book discusses both Van den Eijnde's views on the type of research he advocates in an art college and why this type of research by artistically motivated product and interior designers is important for people and society as a whole. Part personal history, part theoretical analysis, the experiences he shares are quite topical for the design field.

Technology and Society: (Paperback)

This book approaches various challenges that recent technological developments pose for legal systems. Aiming to bridge the gap between different fields of law, but also between linguistic and national borders, it offers multilingual and intradisciplinary contributions reflecting on Technology and Society. As technology increasingly permeates our daily lives, reflecting on the impact it has on society and therefore also on the law, becomes ever more pressing. The present book is the outcome of the 9th Assistentenconferentie/Conférence des assistants (ACCA) held in September 2020 in Leuven, Belgium. Marie Bourguignon is a doctoral researcher at the Centre for Public Law (KU Leuven). Her research focuses on access to law and more specifically on the translating role of judicial actors. She is also a teaching assistant at the Leuven Institute for Human Rights. Tom Hick is full-time doctoral researcher and teaching assistant at the Institute for the Law of Obligations (KU Leuven).

Positive criminology (Paperback)

Safety and security are often seen in light of crime, disorder and fear. This fuels a political and social climate obsessed with a negative logic of 'fighting' criminals, 'controlling' populations, and 'excluding' unwanted others. Other, more positive or constitutive, discourses and practices about safety and security have fallen out of fashion. But what alternatives to contemporary processes of securitization and criminalization can be imagined when starting from a positive critique of security? Which theoretical and empirical resources support and inspire more positive notions of security? This multidisciplinary volume brings together a team of renowned scholars to stress that security also includes notions of care, trust and belonging. By taking the concept of security beyond traditional criminal law, the scholars in this volume bring cuttingedge theoretical and empirical analyses on the importance of human connectedness, community building and feelings of solidarity as a way to
