    Guest Editors’ Introduction: Towards a Vertigology of Contemporary Cities

    Get PDF
    In this introduction, the guest editors set out the contextual and theoretical rationale for the Special Issue: Vertigo in the City. It begins with some basic definitions and uses of the term vertigo, before tracing the relationship between vertigo and the environmental, emotional and representational landscape of the high-rise, high-density modern city. Drawn from a multidisciplinary research project which culminated in 2015, the six papers selected for the SI are then briefly described, highlighting contributions and intersections between the different papers. The introduction ends with a call for the development of an interdisciplinary approach to the study of vertigo, with a view to further opening up inter-disciplinary research in the future

    This paper operates as the Introduction to a Symposium that resulted from a Call for Papers discussing the topic of What Matters for Black Workers after 2020? to be published in the 25th volume of the Employee Rights and Employment Policy Journal for 2021. This paper briefly discusses the papers in that Symposium publication authored by Jamillah Bowman Williams, Michael Duff, and Henry Chambers that address this topic. I thank Noah Zatz, Marty Malin, Michael Oswalt, Marcia McCormick, and Tristan Kirvan for their dedicated efforts, feedback, and encouragement in completing this Symposium issue for the journal on this very important topic of addressing concerns for Black workers. I am also grateful to the Labor Law Group who supported the development and completion of this Symposium issue and asked me to be their Symposium Editor representative

    Cliché: An Introduction

    Get PDF
    Before writing the call for papers for this issue, I conducted an online search for 'clichĂ© in writing.' Predictably, the search produced dozens of pages with tips for writers: '12 ClichĂ©s all Writers Should Avoid' (Klems), 'Avoiding ClichĂ©s in Writing' (Writer’s Web), and one article brewing dangerously close to a perfect meta-clichĂ© storm: '681 ClichĂ©s to Avoid in Your Creative Writing' (Luke). Cautions about clichĂ©s extend to both creative and academic communities. This introduction offers thoughts on these academic recommendations and discusses the ab(use) and (un)necessity of clichĂ©s

    2. Introduction: Philosophy and Geography

    Get PDF
    This number of the Journal of Interdisciplinary History of Ideas hosts a special and thematic issue focused on the relation between philosophy and geography. It is the result of a call for papers that was launched in 2016 with the aim of answering at least some of the relevant questions concerning the historical connections between philosophy and geography, while also exploring the possible theoretical intersections between them to which this history points. This Introduction intends to provide readers a general overview on the topic

    Management Theory and Practice: bridging the gap through multidisciplinary lenses

    Get PDF
    Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to introduce the special issue that critically examines topics informing long-standing disputes concering the status of theory and practice in management studies. Contributions explore the character of the imputed relationship between theory and practice. Design/methodology/approach – The editorial introduction sets the discussion of topics in the context of institutional change influencing the production, circulation and consumption of knowledge products in the economy of relevance and reputation. It also presents an overview of the papers included in the special issue. Findings – The main themes addressed in the papers represent a call for change; a call to radicalize the approaches to understanding ways of knowing; a call to re-evaluate relations with practitioners; and a call to reimagine ways of representing knowledge to various constituencies, including fellow academic practitioners, management practitioners, students, and policy-makers and other opinion-formers. Research limitations/implications – The key message is one of the importance of encouraging broad discussions concerning the direction and impact of flows of knowledge and the various products in which that knowledge is embedded. It calls for a more market-oriented approach to understanding the knowledge economy and the mediating role of various institutional players, including the academy, in the circulation, creation and destruction of knowledge products. Practical implications – That a more-market oriented approach to arrangements for the distribution of research resources in management studies calls for the development of more market-oriented institutions capable of shaping relationships of collaboration, involvement and accountability. Originality/value – Contributions expand the understanding of the problems and opportunities of imputing links to theory and practice
