Two veteran remote managers draw on their pre- and post-COVID experience to offer pragmatic, proven advice for designing remote work environments where everyone thrives. Since the pandemic began, a staggering 64 million American workers have experienced working full-time from home. In 2020 and 2021, quick-fix solutions and emergency-transition plans allowed organizations to survive with remote work. Now Ali Greene and Tamara Sanderson want to show managers how to design positive, flexible virtual work cultures that will thrive in the long term—because remote work is here to stay. Drawing on their years of experience working for all-remote companies DuckDuckGo and Automattic (the parent company of WordPress) and as international digital nomads, Greene and Sanderson have written the ultimate design-thinking handbook for managing remote and hybrid teams. The book addresses challenges such as managing conflict, establishing norms, communicating effectively, reframing productivity, and creating an authentic team culture. Using practical, hands-on exercises, they give managers the confidence to design and prototype optimal remote work structures for their teams. Greene and Sanderson never said the remote work world is easy, but they’ve seen firsthand that it can be effective and enjoyable. Now it’s time for others to reap the benefits.

Permanent States of Emergency and the Rule of Law explores the impact that oxymoronic 'permanent' states of emergency have on the validity and effectiveness of constitutional norms and, ultimately, constituent power. It challenges the idea that many constitutional orders are facing permanent states of emergency due to the 'objective nature' of threats facing modern states today, arguing instead that the nature of a threat depends upon the subjective assessment of the decision-maker. In light of this, it further argues that robust judicial scrutiny and review of these decisions is required to ensure that the temporariness of the emergency is a legal question and that the validity of constitutional norms is not undermined by their perpetual suspension. It does this by way of a narrower conception of the rule of law than standard accounts in favour of judicial review of emergency powers in the literature, which tend to be based on the normative value of human rights. In so doing it seeks to refute the fundamental constitutional challenge posed by Carl that all state power cannot be constrained by law.
