Pike, University of Hertfordshire, UK ‘In a field full of books on the topic, Professor Pike brings us something refreshingly new and equally important. True to her extensive experience and reflexivity, Pike offers us thirteen “conversations” from a diversity of voices and perspectives rarely given time in the sociology of sport and we are undoubtedly the better for it.’ – Brent McDonald, Victoria University, Australia April 2025 180 pp Hardback 978 1 80392 681 0 £85.00 / $120.00 eBook • Elgaronline Rethinking Research and Theory series The Elgar Companion to the Arts and Global Multiculturalism Edited by the late Sneja Gunew, Formerly University of British Columbia, Canada, Nikos Papastergiadis, formerly University of Melbourne, Fazal Rizvi, University of Melbourne and Paula Muraca, Deakin University Melbourne, Australia ‘What follows the policy fatigue and political disenchantment which has plagued multiculturalism in recent decades? Can multiculturalism be reclaimed to serve different cultural agendas? Heeding Sneja Gunew’s call to go “back to the future”, the contributors to this volume explore the aesthetic, activist and cosmopolitan roots of multicultural practice. In reimagining the dynamism lost to the managerial capture of the term, their work stands as a lasting tribute to Gunew’s vision for better ways to live with cultural difference.’ – Wenche Ommundsen, University of Wollongong, Australia April 2025 422 pp Hardback 978 1 0353 1002 9 £210.00 / $295.00 eBook • Elgaronline Handbook on Cities and Crime Edited by Dietrich Oberwittler, Max Planck Institute for the Study of Crime, Security and Law, Germany and Rebecca Wickes, Griffith University, Australia ‘Oberwittler and Wickes have brought together an outstanding international team of scholars and curated a fabulous collection of works for their Handbook on Cities and Crime. Situating the chapters in the context of international crime trends in urban spaces and thoughtfully drawing on historical theories on crime and place, the Handbook makes a significant global contribution to the ecology of crime literature.’ – Lorraine Mazerolle, The University of Queensland, Australia April 2025 506 pp Hardback 978 1 80037 570 3 £230.00 / $325.00 eBook • Elgaronline OPEN ACCESS Research Handbook on Partnering across the Life Course Edited by Dimitri Mortelmans, University of Antwerp, Belgium, Laura Bernardi, University of Lausanne, Switzerland, and Brienna Perelli-Harris, University of Southampton, UK ‘This Research Handbook on Partnering across the Life Course provides an extraordinarily comprehensive review of current theory and research on partner relationships. Because contemporary data and research on partner relationships is dominated by studies from western wealthy societies, it is especially laudable that the book contains reviews of what we do know about intimate partnerships in other parts of the world.’ – Elizabeth Thomson, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA and Stockholm University, Sweden April 2025 394 pp Hardback 978 1 80392 337 6 £200.00 / $280.00 eBook • Elgaronline Research Handbooks in Sociology series OPEN ACCESS Food Security and Islamic Ethics Rights, Policies and Vulnerable Groups Edited by Ray Jureidini, formerly Hamad bin Khalifa University, Qatar, Said Fares Hassan, American University of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates and Dalal Aassouli, Hamad bin Khalifa University, Qatar ‘This is a superb and timely book exploring food security and Islamic ethics via three perspectives: the world response to the challenge of sustainable food security, the Islamic perspective in addressing food security concerns, and the most vulnerable groups who face this issue.
