Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - In "The Politics of the Opioid Epidemic," leading political scientists from diverse theoretical traditions provide new insights into the enduring features of American policy and practice that have influenced state-level and national responses to the ongoing opioid crisis. Key among these features is the persistent power of race in shaping public opinion of the opioid crisis, influencing the development of punitive and treatment-oriented legislation, and impacting media portrayal of opioids and the communities they affect. Other factors include the development of the conservative welfare state and the challenges of delivering information and services to affected communities through existing, dysfunctional systems. Analyzing the manifold politics that have contributed to the current situation, contributors explain the depth of the current opioid epidemic and highlight the need for structural change to produce durable, effective policies.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - While contemporary Chinese art has arrived as a critical subject in art history and found market success, current art criticism has yet to fully engage with art made by Chinese women, especially from the perspective of gender politics. In "(En)gendering: Chinese Women's Art in the Making," contributorsincluding artists, art historians, critics, and curatorsconsider how the work of contemporary women artists has generated new approaches to and perspectives on the Chinese art canon. The issue begins by laying a historical framework for the potentials and problems regarding the interpretation of Chinese women's art, tracing its evolution throughout a century of Chinese history. Next, the issue considers the spatial notion of boundary crossing, addressing how travel across national and theoretical boundaries affects the perception of artworks, and explores the misgivings of Chinese women artists about participating in a global exhibition system in which their artwork stands for "China" and "Women." The issue concludes by looking at the idea of (en)gendering as a revision of women's art prompting artists and the viewers of women's artworks to challenge the conventional gaze that has dominated our ways of seeing. The issue considers the work of Chinese artists such as Lin Tianmiao, Lei Yan, Yin Xiuzhen, Cui Xiuwen, Yu Hong, and Liu Manwen. Contributors. Julia F. Andrews, Lara C. W. Blanchard, Meiling Cheng, Shuqin Cui, Elise David, Linda Chui-han Lai, Tao Yongbai, Peggy Wang, Sasha Su-Ling Welland.
