Transitions from one socio-technical regime configuration to another entail long phases of institutional complexity, where two or more field logics co-exist in a sector and induce incompatibilities and frictions. This paper presents a dynamic phase model, which characterizes the types of institutional complexity that may build up and settle across various phases of a transition, illustrated with a
We systematically investigate the complexity of counting subgraph patterns modulo fixed integers. For example, it is known that the parity of the number of k-matchings can be determined in polynomial time by a simple reduction to the determinant. We generalize this to an nf(t,s)-time algorithm to compute modulo 2t the number of subgraph occurrences of patterns that are s vertices away from being m
For a better understanding of the effects of regional groundwater management for different land-use types on nitrogen content in groundwater, we investigated the Miyakonojo River Basin in south of Japan where the Nitrate Directive Plan has been in practice since 2004. For this purpose, we used nitrogen concentrations from 420 wells between 2000 and 2017 together with 8 different land-use categoriz
This study presents cross-sectional data on adjectival agreement in second-language (L2) learners of Norwegian with four different first languages (L1s). The target language has full noun phrase agreement between article, adjective and noun, and the source languages represent different agreement conditions, similar to or different from the target language. Sixteen learners participated in the studThis study presents cross-sectional data on adjectival agreement in second-language (L2) learners of Norwegian with four different first languages (L1s).

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder in which both rare and common genetic variants contribute to disease risk. Multiple genes have been reported to be linked to monogenic PD but these only explain a fraction of the observed familial aggregation. Rare variants in RIC3 have been suggested to be associated with PD in the Indian population. However, replication studies yie
Objectives: Studies suggest preeclampsia as a risk factor for long term cardiovascular diseases (CVD), while evidence is limited regarding the risk of high blood pressures (BP) in early pregnancy. Study design: A register-based follow-up of 2434 mothers in the Helsingborg Birth Cohort. Associations of high BP in early pregnancy (>95th percentile systolic [SBP], diastolic [BDP], or mean arterial BP
Based on the personal and professional stories of 30 women, this article presents the results of a pioneering research on gender mainstreaming in Colombia. The objective is to understand it in three different areas: the academia, the NGO sector, and the government, in order to analyze the intersectional resistance as a way to achieve structural changes against the multiple oppressions experienced
In Colombia, the process of reintegration into civilian life is intended to support the legal life projects of people who have belonged to organized illegal armed groups. This process has been led by the Agencia para la Reincorporación y la Normalización (national agency for reintegration into civilian life) through the Ruta de Reintegración (reintegration plan) since 2011. Drawing from a collabor
For more than a decade, the Centres d’aide et de lutte contre les agressions à caractère sexuel (CALACS) have been involved in developing an intersectional approach, responding to needs emerging from their daily practices. The partial results of the action-research that followed the CALACS in this endeavor show that, despite significant efforts and the recognition of intersectional needs, many obs
The present article is situated in an unexplored embodied geography with re-lation to Gender Studies and Alternative Feminist Pedagogies: the department of Santander in Colombia, located in the north eastern part of the country. It presents the results of empirical application of the autobiographical method created with the aim of considering possibilities to decolonize learning pro-cesses in univ
In a grassroots effort to counter the institutional and state-centred narratives on disarmament, demobilisation, and reintegration (DDR) processes conceptualised by the Integrated DDR Standards of the United Nations, the NGO Corporación Descontamina has organised local projects around what it has identified as significant problems in previous work carried out in a Bucaramanga men’s jail where ex-p
Although the US and NATO invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 was ideologically justified under the banner of democracy and women’s rights, the latter issue has been completely forgotten within the public sphere since then. As the war has officially ended in Afghanistan, new forms of misogyny and sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) have arisen. The ‘post-war’ Afghan context presents an institutiona
In 2012, the ‘Delhi rape’ brought renewed attention to the long-standing problem of violence against women (VAW) in India, unraveling entrenched structures of oppression against women. However, despite the introduction of the 2013 Rape Law, women still face high levels of sexual violence. If much has been written on VAW in India and the complexity of Indian federalism, very few studies engage with
The reflections compiled in this chapter emerge from the two fieldwork investigations conducted in Brazil (2016) and Colombia (2015). The first one, carried out in the favelas of Rio de Janeiro, aims to understand and analyse the nature and the impacts of police violence, as well as resistance emerging in that context, based on women’s testimonies. The second one has been implemented with the coll
As we write this chapter about reinterpreting women’s roles in peacebuilding, Colombia is at a turning point. On November 24, 2016, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia—People’s Army (FARC-EP) and the national government signed a historical agreement that ended the 60-year-long armed conflict. How this peace and the social reconciliation that it requires will be implemented remain to be seen
