Previous books of the Leadership Horizon Series showed unequivocally how both leaders and followers play an equally important part in the co-production of leadership outcomes, and how leader and follower identities are fluid, so that the same individual can enact both at different times. This book stretches the notion of leadership a step further by exploring the co-enactment of both roles, identities, and positions of leader and follower by one same individual. This individual is defined as a connecting leader, as in this co-enactment he/she functions as connector between different leadership relationships. The concept of connecting leader emerges from the observation that most individuals in organizations engage in the leader-follower role co-enactment: managers, pulled between executives and reportees; CEOs, between the board and the head of departments; or employees involved in cross functional teams, leading and following in different degrees, subject to their expertise. Yet, despite its pervasiveness this concept is at best under theorized by the literature, which, dominated by dyadic and romanticized views, mostly presents the roles as enacted by separate individuals facing each other. To advance our understanding of connecting leaders the editor proposes to shift our focus on leadership in three ways: to unpack the interconnectedness and interplay of leader and follower identities; to investigate the tensions arising from the co-enactment and how these can be overcome; to widen the way in which we study leadership, through new configurations (e.g. leadership triads) and ontologies; and finally to consider the similarities between leading and following. The book chapters are organized to mirror these areas of exploration. Understanding leadership from a perspective that acknowledges that many individuals in organizations are not just leaders or followers, but both, democratizes the way we theorize leadership, and moves us further away from the temptation to romanticize it.

A former parole officer shines a bright light on a huge yet hidden part of our justice system through the intertwining stories of seven parolees striving to survive the chaos that awaits them after prison in this illuminating and dramatic book. Prompted by a dead-end retail job and a vague desire to increase the amount of justice in his hometown, Jason Hardy became a parole officer in New Orleans at the worst possible moment. Louisiana’s incarceration rates were the highest in the US and his department’s caseload had just been increased to 220 “offenders” per parole officer, whereas the national average is around 100. Almost immediately, he discovered that the biggest problem with our prison system is what we do—and don’t do—when people get out of prison. Deprived of social support and jobs, these former convicts are often worse off than when they first entered prison and Hardy dramatizes their dilemmas with empathy and grace. He’s given unique access to their lives and a growing recognition of their struggles and takes on his job with the hope that he can change people’s fates—but he quickly learns otherwise. The best Hardy and his colleagues can do is watch out for impending disaster and help clean up the mess left behind. But he finds that some of his charges can muster the miraculous power to save themselves. By following these heroes, he both stokes our hope and fuels our outrage by showing us how most offenders, even those with the best intentions, end up back in prison—or dead—because the system systematically fails them. Our focus should be, he argues, to give offenders the tools they need to re-enter society which is not only humane but also vastly cheaper for taxpayers. As immersive and dramatic as Evicted and as revelatory as The New Jim Crow, The Second Chance Club shows us how to solve the cruelest problems prisons create for offenders and society at large.

We live in a wired society, with computers containing and passing around vital information on both personal and public matters. Keeping this data safe is of paramount concern to all. Yet, not a day seems able to pass without some new threat to our computers. Unfortunately, the march of technology has given us the benefits of computers and electronic tools, while also opening us to unforeseen dangers. Identity theft, electronic spying, and the like are now standard worries. In the effort to defend both personal privacy and crucial databases, computer security has become a key industry. A vast array of companies devoted to defending computers from hackers and viruses have cropped up. Research and academic institutions devote a considerable amount of time and effort to the study of information systems and computer security. Anyone with access to a computer needs to be aware of the developing trends and growth of computer security. To that end, this book presents a comprehensive and carefully selected bibliography of the literature most relevant to understanding computer security. Following the bibliography section, continued access is provided via author, title, and subject indexes. With such a format, this book serves as an important guide and reference tool in the defence of our computerised culture.

Three true stories of interracial conflict show how interpersonal racism can be dismantled when conversational partners co-construct uniquenesses, a powerful process everyone can do. • A stressful conversation between Isabel and the plumber was transformed from racist abuse to “momentarily family.” • Ronald and Jennifer progressed from “violent Black rapist” and “lying white bitch” to friends, co-authors, and collaborating social justice advocates. • After Robin owned up to her white privilege, Angela comfortably connected with her as a colleague. Dismantling Racism One On One provides a mental model and three ways of listening and speaking that can empower readers to reverse toxic stereotyping. Stories of real conversations illustrate the anti-racist power of specific ways of listening and speaking that we can all practice. Since each of us is unique, we can harness our uniqueness to combat the racism we experience in one-on-one situations. The first step is to understand productive ways to think about dismantling interpersonal racism by storifying, listening dialogically, practicing cultural humility, and being genuinely curious. The second is to mobilize appropriate reflections, choices, and emotions. This how-to guide is proven and powerful, and the overall process is simple: It’s the opposite of social stereotyping.

When The Jewel in the Crown aired on British and American television in the early 1980s, many people who had never read Paul Scott's Raj Quartet, on which it is based, became engrossed in his sweeping tale of India in the waning days of the Raj. At the same time, however, some literary critics, displaying a scholarly prejudice against popular success, dismissed the literary worth of Scott's novels. In this comprehensive study of all thirteen Scott novels, Francine Weinbaum takes issue with these critics and makes a persuasive claim for The Raj Quartet as a masterpiece of twentieth-century literature. After a biographical chapter, Weinbaum discusses Scott's earlier novels as thematic and technical precursors of The Raj Quartet (The Jewel in the Crown, The Day of the Scorpion, The Towers of Silence, and A Division of the Spoils). She traces in the Quartet a dynamic of reality and illusion that underlies the protagonists' struggle for love, the antagonists' striving for power and privilege, and the central theme of the search for union between England and India, whites and nonwhites, and soul and body. A final chapter demonstrates how the protagonists of the early and middle novel--repressed, depressed, introverted, and inadequate figures--are transformed into the life-affirming, tragic figures of The Raj Quartet, who are imprisoned not so much by psychological forces as by historical and social ones. In exploring the theme of thwarted union in The Raj Quartet and relating it to Scott's own life and inner world, Weinbaum opens a new door into the works of Paul Scott for both scholars and the reading public.
