Victim blaming is a harmful but quite pervasive phenomenon occurring in contemporary societies. When people engage in victim blaming, they shift the burden of the harmful act from the perpetrators and place it upon the victims instead. This article explores how the discourse on moral responsibility can help make sense of victim blaming. The distinction between moral responsibility and blameworthin
This article presents a conversation with Dr. Ioannis Kampourakis, Associate Professor of Law and Markets at Erasmus University Rotterdam, as part of Lund University’s Screening for Sustainability project. Kampourakis’ research explores the political economy of the green transition, focusing on how markets can be deliberately designed and steered—what he calls ‘market instrumentalism’—to achieve s
The Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (AFSJ), established by the Treaty of Lisbon under Article 3(2) TEU and regulated under Title V of the TFEU, is increasingly occupying a central place in the case law of the Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU). The former Vice-President of the Court, Judge Lars Bay Larsen, has played a key role in the development of the relevant case law, having acted as judg
From 2015 onwards almost every EU migration policy document has the professed objective of shaping a ‘fair, efficient, and sustainable’ migration. But what would a sustainable migration look like in terms of legal design? By focusing on the EU legal order, the article provides an answer to this question. Specifically, the article presents the findings of a critical historical study of different ar
Among the many EU law doctrines, none remains as largely uncontroversial as the fundamental normative division between us, the EU citizens at the centre of the legal order and the others, non-EU migrants. Next to the Treaty framework and the different legal bases for free movement of persons and migration, the case law of the Court of Justice of the EU has been central in sustaining the dividing l
Five moulded terracotta votive heads from Tessennano, Te 1-5, three terracotta sarcophagi from Tuscania, Tu 1-3, two terracotta votive heads from Vulci, Vu 1-2 and three votive heads from Tarquinia, Ta 1-3 are presented in this study. They are included in a larger ongoing research and have been dated to the late third and second centuries B.C. Moulds deriving from the same handmade prototype, henc
While sought for over a century, the birth of the distinctive bucket-shaped ceramic technology on the Scandinavian Peninsula has been overshadowed by its enigmatic senescence or ‘death’ in the sixth century AD. This omnipresent Migration Period container was in use for two centuries, from the mid-fourth to the mid-sixth centuries AD, spreading quickly and widely from the western region to the east
Recently, mass spectrometry based peptidomics studies have proven useful in the identification of biomarkers and bioactive peptide-based therapeutics. Here, we present a dataset comprised of temporal wound fluid peptidomics data from highly defined porcine models. Wound fluids from porcine wounds infected with Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and uninfected controls, were sampled
Background: Racial differences in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) genomes have not yet been fully studied. We aimed to investigate transcriptomic, mutational, and clinical differences by race in a large multi-institutional cohort of men with mCRPC. Methods: Genomic and clinicopathologic data from four mCRPC tumor biopsy cohorts were obtained and aggregated. Gene set enrichm
Language anxiety (LA) is among the most researched emotions in language learning research. Mirroring the recent dynamic turn in the broader field, LA researchers are increasingly interested in the situation-specific and dynamic nature of anxiety (Elahi Shirvan & Taherian, 2021; MacIntyre, 2017). In practice, this must be accompanied by a movement towards methodologies sensitive to potential dy
We report the synthesis of bell-shaped Bi/Bi13S18Br2 metal/semiconductor heterostructures as a photocatalyst based on nontoxic and Earth-abundant elements. Their unique morphology arises from a multistep growth process, involving (1) the nucleation of Bi13S18Br2 nanorods, (2) the reduction of a metallic-Bi domain on their surface induced by N,N-didodecylmethylamine, and (3) the heterostructure acc
Spine Computed Tomography (SCT) is essential for identifying fractures, tumors and degenerative spine diseases, assisting medical practitioners in formulating an accurate diagnosis and treatment. One of the core element of SCT is reporting. The effectiveness of spine reporting is often limited by challenges such as an inadequate infrastructure and lack of experts. Automated SCT analysis has the po
The metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) dynamics of beta-gallium oxide (β-Ga2O3) growth using trimethylgallium (TMGa) and oxygen as precursors were investigated through both theoretical thermodynamic analysis and experimental validation in a horizontal low-pressure hot-wall reactor. Thermodynamic analysis revealed that high-purity β-Ga2O3 can be grown through the complete combustion of
