• Archipelagothic: Studies in the Philippine Gothic

This edited volume explores how the Gothic has evolved across Philippine literature, film, television, comics and visual culture, reflecting the country’s complex colonial history, regional diversity and archipelagic identity. Introducing the concept of the Archipelagothic, it offers fresh theoretical perspectives on decoloniality, cultural multiplicity and the distinctive forms of Gothic expression found throughout the Philippines.

• Decolonising International Solidarity

This book examines how colonialism reshaped societies across Africa and the Middle East, arguing that enduring colonial structures continue to influence development, migration and international relations. Challenging Western-centred models, it advocates a new framework for global solidarity based on equality, cultural diversity and more sustainable approaches to development and governance.

• Value Creation Ratings (VCr 2025)

By evaluating 1,000 listed firms using comprehensive sustainability metrics, it offers a new approach to measuring business performance, stakeholder impact and long-term value creation.

• South American Perspectives on Cultural Diversity

This book examines cultural diversity policies in Argentina, Brazil and Peru, exploring how they have shaped debates around identity, inclusion and social justice over the past fifteen years. Through critical analysis and case studies, it highlights the role of cultural policy in addressing inequality while contributing to wider discussions on decolonisation and intercultural citizenship.
