Charisma encompasses power, popularity, and influence. Yet behind the curtain, complexity, chaos, and insecurity lurk. Examining the lives of charismatic personalities in a variety of fields (religion, entertainment, business, sects, etc) a picture emerges of distorted, unfulfilled souls yearning for the limelight by an inescapable force they cannot understand yet which fuels their very existence. The Age of Charisma: Understanding the Charismatic Personality examines personalities from their earliest upbringings to their often tragic end, examining the similarities that brings the charismatic to the glowing stage of fame that only temporarily assuages wounds from unhappy childhoods. The charismatic personality has always been part of human history, but they shine brighter today thanks in part to our media-dominated landscape and the growing reliance on visual rather than written communication. Ours is a golden time for such enigmatic personalities; their social influence and idolatry have never been greater. This book is written for scholars, instructors and researchers broadly interested in charisma as a social phenomenon and as the product of an expansive reality dominated by screens.

Political Consumerism captures the creative ways in which consumers and citizens turn to the market as their arena for politics. This book theorizes, describes, analyzes, compares, and evaluates how political consumers target corporations to solve globalized problems. It demonstrates the reconfiguration of civic engagement, political participation, and citizenship. Unlike other studies, this book also evaluates if and how consumer actions are or can become effective mechanisms of global change.

Over the last two decades, "green criminology" has emerged as a unique area of study, bringing together criminologists and sociologists from a wide range of research backgrounds and varying theoretical orientations. It spans the micro to the macro—from individual-level environmental crimes and victimization to business/corporate violations and state transgressions. There have been few attempts, however, to explicitly or implicitly integrate cultural criminology into green criminology (or vice versa). This book moves towards articulating a green cultural criminological perspective. Brisman and South examine existing overlapping research and offer a platform to support future excursions by green criminologists into cultural criminology’s concern with media images and representations, consumerism and consumption, and resistance. At the same time, they offer an invitation to cultural criminologists to adopt a green view of the consumption landscape and the growth (and depictions) of environmental harms. Green Cultural Criminology is aimed at students, academics, criminologists, and sociologists with an interest in green criminology and cultural criminology: two of the most exciting new areas in criminology today.

In this impressively researched and incisive book, Bruce Grierson draws on over three hundred stories of so-called "U-turners," who have risked their livelihoods to answer a sudden wake-up call. We meet people who change political parties and careers, doctors who quit to become poets, men who become women, people who suddenly become revolutionaries for a cause they didn't care about the day before. In chapters that address everything from the neuroscience behind epiphanies to the possibility of "forcing" a U-turn, Grierson brilliantly describes and elucidates this powerful, mysterious phenomenon, and in doing so illuminates all of our continual struggles with life choices and identity.

Pointing out striking correlations between the catastrophe of 9/11 and the destruction of ancient Jerusalem, Brueggemann shows how the prophetic biblical response to that crisis was truth-telling in the face of ideology, grief in the face of denial, and hope in the face of despair. He argues that the same prophetic responses are urgently required from us now if we are to escape the deathliness of denial and despair. --from publisher description.
