On the construction of action monads as an adjoint functor from monoids to strong monads (all in the generality of enriched category theory):

Given a symmetric closed monoidal category $V$, a $V$-enriched category $A$ with underlying ordinary category $A_0$ and a subcategory $\Sigma$ of $A_0$ containing the identities of $A_0$, H. Wolff defines the corresponding theory of a localization of an enriched category:
