Beneath the Buzzword of “Interaction”
We talk about “interaction” as if it were self-evident — something everyone needs more of, something that can be improved, managed, or taught. In this blog, Melisa Stevanovic explores what lies beneath that comforting word: the fragile, complex process through which people build understanding and hold the social world together.

Just published my second book this year: www.e-elgar.com/shop/gbp/adv.... Unlike 'Malthus Enigma', which is for a general reader, my new book is more technical. It draws upon 30 years experience advising governments and international institutions on climate and sustainability solutions.

Inequality, Skills, and the Policy Crossroads: Rethinking Europe’s Social Contract
By Steven Dhondt and Ulrich Zierahn-Weilage At the dawn of 2026, the central challenges of inequality and skills remain at the forefront of social and economic discourse. Yet, contemporary policymaking appears increasingly detached from the foundational insights of economic and social sciences. Instead of pursuing evidence-based strategies for societal well-being, political agendas often recycle outdated concepts, underinvest in critical areas such as migration, and overstate the transformative potential of technology without a nuanced understanding of its real-world impacts.
