Drawing on interviews with leading behaviour change experts, organizations and policy-makers, and discussed in alignment with a series of international case studies, this volume provides a critical analysis of the ethical, economic, political and constitutional implications of behaviourally oriented government. It explores the impacts of the behavioural sciences on everyday life through a series of themes, including: understandings of the human subject; interpretations of freedom; the changing form and function of the state; the changing role of the corporation in society; and the design of everyday environments and technologies. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe research presented in this volume reveals a diverse set of neuroliberal approaches to government that offer policy-makers and behaviour change professionals a real choice in relation to the systems of behavioural government they can implement. This book also argues that the behavioural sciences have the potential to support much more effective systems of government, but also generate new ethical concerns that policy-makers should be aware of. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMark Whitehead\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Human Geography at Aberystwyth University, Wales, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003eRhys Jones is Professor and Head of Department (Geography) at Aberystwyth University, Wales, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRachel Lilley \u003c\/strong\u003eis a behaviour change and mindfulness consultant and PhD Candidate at Aberystwyth University, Wales, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003eJessica Pykett is Senior Lecturer in Human Geography at University of Birmingham, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003eRachel Howell is Lecturer in Sociology and Sustainable Development at University of Edinburgh, Scotland, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 06, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47474790465714,"sku":"9781138923836","price":110.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/e9fc295aaaa64d8d4f111eb604912483.webp?v=1779159918","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/neuroliberalism-behavioural-government-in-the-twenty-first-century-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
