Divergent Paths to College

Race, Class, and Inequality in High Schools

By: Megan M Holland

In Divergent Paths to College, Megan M. Holland examines how high schools structure different pathways that lead students to very different college destinations based on race and class. She finds that racial and class inequalities are reproduced through unequal access to key sources of information, even among students in the same school and even in schools with well-established college-going cultures. As the college application process becomes increasingly complex and high-stakes, social capital, or relationships with people who can provide information as well as support and guidance, becomes much more critical. Although much has been written about the college-bound experience, we know less about the role that social capital plays, and specifically how high schools can serve as organizational brokers of social ties. The relationships that high schools cultivate between students and higher education institutions by inviting college admissions officers into their schools to market to students, is a particularly critical, yet unexplored source of college information.

The Right to Privacy

Origins and Influence of a Nineteenth-Century Idea

By: Megan Richardson

Using original and archival material, The Right to Privacy traces the origins and influence of the right to privacy as a social, cultural and legal idea. Richardson argues that this right had emerged as an important legal concept across a number of jurisdictions by the end of the nineteenth century, providing a basis for its recognition as a universal human right in later centuries. This book is a unique contribution to the history of the modern right to privacy. It covers the transition from Georgian to Victorian England, developments in Second Empire France, insights in the lead up to the Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch (BGB) of 1896, and the experience of a rapidly modernising America around the turn of the twentieth century. It will appeal to an audience of academic and postgraduate researchers, as well as to the judiciary and legal practice.

Walk Away to Win: A Playbook to Combat Workplace Bullying

By: Megan Morfitt Carle

Recognize toxic coworkers, support bullied colleagues, and thrive in the workplace and beyond Ranging from general conflict to psychological violence, workplace bullying has become an epidemic at many offices. The Workplace Bullying Institute reports that workplace bullying affects approximately 80 million workers. And with the Great Resignation upon us, we’re seeing that a toxic culture or manager is one of the top reasons employees leave a company. In Walk Away to Win, Megan Carle draws on her own experience as a target of workplace bullying—paired with the latest research in the field—to reveal how unhealthy workplace cultures enable this insidious behavior. She describes the impact of bullying on an organization’s bottom line; explains what you can do to combat bullying against yourself or your coworkers; analyzes the common characteristics of bullies; and helps readers understand how to face each style of bullying behavior. You’ll learn everything you need to know about: The fundamentals of workplace bullying Various types of bullies, including the Two-Face, the About-Face, and the Rat-Face Cultural context of workplace bullying A target’s options for responding to their bully How you can help a colleague who is being bullied How business leaders must respond to bullies—including termination Walk Away to Win sends a loud-and-clear message to targets of bullying: this is not your fault, and there are steps you can take to protect yourself and your career—including the ultimate win of walking away if your company doesn’t support you. The book also sends a message to leaders in business: if you tolerate workplace bullies, you’ll lose staff, productivity and market share; a no-tolerance policy is the only path forward. If you, a coworker, or a member of your staff is experiencing bullying, Walk Away to Win belongs in your arsenal to combat this behavior and make positive change for everyone.
