Capitalocene Getaways
This article explores the ecological dimensions of the videogame Animal Crossing: New Horizons by analysing paratexts created and shared by players within online communities. Our ecocritical perspective illustrates player experiences characterised by the active production of idealised images of landscapes and ‘nature’, systematised resource extraction and consumption, and the reproduction of capitalist economic values as common ecological dynamic…
A realist review to develop a theory of effective front-line management in probation and youth justice
Probation in England and Wales is in crisis. Subject to internal and external scrutiny, political and public expectation, senior probation officers struggle with performance targets, high staff turnover, inexperienced staff and caseload pressures. We undertook a realist review and through testing and refinement, we derive a mid-level theory of effective (front-line) management comprising five interactive components: management oversight; clinical…
The Collectors of Lost Souls
Teaching Students about Congress and Civic Engagement
As a tenured, full professor in an endowed peace studies chair at my home institution, I chose to spend my 2009–10 sabbatical year as an American Political Science Association Congressional Fellow. Why? As I saw it, my colleagues who teach chemistry need to work with electron spectrometers; my colleagues who teach ethnomusicology need to perform with Javanese gamelans. In an analogous way, I believed that my own work with Congress would energize …
Things of Beauty
Facing another semester in which my teaching load included a course on nuclear weapons, a course on genocide, and a course on the war in Iraq, more than one of my friends said, “You really need to teach a funny course!” So, I thought about funny and imagined ways in which I could craft a course focusing on political humor: I could engage students with Aristophanes’Lysistrata; Gilbert and Sullivan’s Mikado; Walt Kelly’s Pogo; and the students woul…
The Standing of International Law in Undergraduate IR Texts
International law is marginalized in the books that introduce the majority of U.S. university and college students to International Relations as a field of study. Textbook writers commonly state that international law is most difficult or least effective as applied to issues of security or high politics due to the primacy of state survival and the cardinal rule of sovereignty. Ironically, however, the typical chapter or unit on international law …

Information Technology and Global Learning for Sustainable Development
When Intel Corporation, a major manufacturer of computer microchips, expanded its investments in Rio Rancho, New Mexico, grass-roots members of the Southwest Organizing Project (SWOP) took action. SWOP is part of an environmental and economic justice network that links people of color in the Unites States, Mexico, and several native nations. One of the current campaigns of the network is to obtain withheld information about the toxicity of workin…

Peace Studies as if Soviet Studies Mattered
Students of peace studies and Soviet studies should provide complementary tools or mirrors for interpreting contemporary international politics, and yet, clearly, they are not responding to this call. The seriousness of the intellectual lacunae created by Soviet studies and peace studies scholars working in isolation from each other is addressed in this article in several ways. First, claims about existing differences in the two approaches are es…

The Church and the Independent Peace Movement in Eastern Europe
This article examines the propositions that the rise of new peace movements in Eastern Europe, inde pendent from and in some cases opposed to the work of official peace councils, is a function of some li mited degree of church autonomy in those countries, and that communication with Western peace mo vements or sentiments through Church-related bodies is a necessary but not sufficient condition for in dependent peace efforts in Eastern Europe. Cze…
The Antinuclear Peace Movement
To evaluate the effectiveness of the peace movement as a whole, this paper seeks to identify the criteria that the various constituents of the movement active on the local, regional and global levels apply to measure effectiveness. It does so by analyzing the character of a few selected components of the movement, giving reasons for each selection. The character is discerned through an examination of its ideology, if any; its organizational struc…
