Football in its Place: An Environmental Psychology of Football Grounds (Psychology Revivals)

In the late 1980s football was in a state of crisis. Falling attendances and a genuine unease among potential spectators about going to live football matches suggested that, without radical changes, the game would soon become a minority spectator sport. Originally published in 1989, reissued now with a new preface, Football in its Place presented a new approach to the problem that concentrates on the spectators’ experience of football and on the places where it is played.This approach recognizes four themes, which relate directly to the spectators’ experience: spectator comfort; the need for effective crowd control; the problems of coping in emergencies; and variations in club cultures. A special chapter on football-related violence shows how this needs to be understood in relation to all of these themes and not treated as a problem in isolation. This was said to be the only way to reverse the spiral that had given rise to hooliganism.Finally, the authors discuss the options for the future on football. They emphasize that football is a recreational activity whose management should be treated as part of the leisure industry. All aspects of the game, its traditions, club variations and heritage, needed to be harnessed if football was again to be Britain’s most popular spectator sport. Today we can see the impact that the points made in this book have contributed to how we continue to watch and enjoy football now.

Fires and Human Behaviour: Second Edition (Psychology Revivals)

This second edition of Fires and Human Behaviour was originally published in 1990 and since the first edition in 1980 there continued to be considerable loss of life in small and large fires throughout the world. The most significant of these from a behavioural point of view was the Kings Cross underground station in 1988. This was a relatively small fire caused by inappropriate human actions.What appeared to remain timeless and of value ten years after the first edition was published were the details of what actually happens in fires and the psychological models that emerged from studying those details. This second edition was therefore edited to keep the original detailed case studies and to add information about some major incidents that had occurred since 1980.

The Book Against Death

State Responsibility and Terrorism: New Perspectives in International Law

This timely book discusses the problem of State responsibility in connection with terrorist acts committed by non-State actors. It provides a detailed assessment of the consequences of wrongful acts of the State using contemporary examples such as the Bosnian Genocide, 9/11, and the 2016 and 2020 Nice attacks.State Responsibility and Terrorism underlines the conceptual foundations of State responsibility before expertly examining the consequences for the commission of terrorist acts, complicity, and the failure to prevent and punish these crimes. Also, the book explores how conditions for the lawful use of force change according to State involvement, simultaneously dissecting the feasibility of complicity between States and non-State actors for terrorist conduct. Incorporating relevant contemporary case law and literature, examples include the 1979 Tehran Hostages case and the 2005 London bombings. In this framework, chapters discuss the Articles on State Responsibility for Internationally Wrongful Acts and assess the erga omnes character of the prohibition of terrorism in international law.Innovative and insightful, this book is a crucial resource for students and academics in public international law, as well as terrorism and security law. It is also beneficial to practitioners in international dispute settlement for reference to recent debates on international terrorism and State responsibility.

Anglo Nostalgia: The Politics of Emotion in a Fractured West

Nostalgia has become a major force in global politics. While Donald Trump hopes to "make America great again," Xi Jinping calls for a "great rejuvenation of the Chinese people," and a majority of Russians still mourn the Soviet Union. But it is Brexit, with its idealization of a bygone era of full sovereignty, that epitomizes nostalgic nationalism in its purest form. Despite its romantic flavor, nostalgia is a malaise--a combination of paranoia and melancholy that idealizes the past, while denigrating the present. This epidemic of mythicizing national history is shaping politics in risky ways, fueled by ageing populations, shifts in the global order, and technological disruption. When deployed in the political debate, collective nostalgia is used as an emotional weapon, capable of mobilizing a nation towards illusory goals. Drawing on psychology, political science, history and popular culture, Anglo Nostalgia analyses the rapid spread of this global phenomenon, before focusing on Brexit as a case study. With the detachment of informed outsiders, Campanella and Dass? expose nostalgia's great danger: the oversimplification of reality, leading to unprecedented political miscalculations and rising geopolitical tensions.
