Agnes Smedley and the Indian anarchists in Weimar Berlin

This article examines the entangled worlds of anti-colonialism and anarchism in Weimar era Berlin. Looking particularly at Agnes Smedley and her partner in Berlin, Virendranath Chattopadhyaya, as well as M.P.T.Acharya and others, the article explores the ways in which these figures approached the question of anarchism in relation to Indian anti-colonialism. While recent scholarship has focused on

Cohort study of prediction of venous thromboembolism in emergency department patients with extremity symptoms

Despite diagnostic algorithms, identification of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in emergency departments (ED) remains a challenge. We evaluated symptoms, background, and laboratory data in 27,647 ED patients presenting with pain, swelling, or other symptoms from the extremities, and identified predictors of VTE diagnosis within one year. Predictors of a clinical decision to perform phlebography, ult

The welfare state

The first keyword, Welfare State, sets out to problematise the term itself. The welfare state is a national construct, a ‘national social state’ as Etienne Balibar calls it. Thus, transnational or global migration is often construed as a disruptive force, potentially destabilising the welfare state and the nation. This keyword entry critically examines common conceptions of what the welfare state

Banishment

Banishment concludes the keyword discussion by arguing that we can understand the exclusionary practices of welfare states as a politics of destitution, which ultimately leads to the banishment of unwanted individuals. It argues that banishment can be helpful as a conceptual lens through which to understand the purposeful strategies that render individuals deportable, whether citizens or non-citiz

Skogens klimatnyttor – en balansakt i prioritering (utökad utgåva)

Skogen och skogsbruket har idag en stark närvaro i klimatdebatten. Det finns bred enighet om att skogen har stor betydelse för klimatfrågan, men olika syn på vilka dessa klimatnyttor kan vara. Antalet studier inom området är omfattande och relevant styrning utvecklas över tid. Kunskapsläget är dock svåröverblickbart, vilket beror på att olika metoder, antaganden och tidshorisonter använts i olika

Investigation of thermodynamics performance of a heat exchanger-incorporated solar dryer equipped with double-pass flat, v-corrugated, and low-e coated collectors for drying applications

In this study, a solar dryer incorporating a flat plate heat exchanger to recover heat from exhaust air was investigated to explore the usability of different types of collectors in the system. Their usability was further evaluated through economic and environmental analyses. Moreover, the thermodynamic performance of the solar dryers was evaluated under two weather conditions in Nepal. Apple dryi

A minute-resolution downscaling algorithm for high-resolution global irradiance time series

Numerous studies have demonstrated the significant impact of the resolution of solar irradiation data on the outcomes of hourly production models. Accurate integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems sometimes demands a high-resolution global horizontal irradiance (GHI) time series to capture the rapid fluctuations in PV power output induced by swift irradiance changes. Most of the available database

Comparative study on building permit processes in Europe

The issuance of building permits is a crucial process for urban development in accordance with the law and sustainability goals. Building permits in Europe involve a complex tapestry of processes, regulations, and methodologies. Despite its critical role in shaping the urban landscape, detailed investigations of building permitting process have been scarce. This gap in knowledge not only hinders t

Collective Asymmetric Synthesis of Thiosilvatins

Abstract Thiosilvatins are a family of biologically active sulfenylated diketopiperazine natural products. The first members were reported over 40?years ago, but total synthesis of a thiosilvatin has remained elusive. Here, we describe the first, collective, synthesis of the parent epidithiodiketopiperazine (?)-dithiosilvatin and ten related thiosilvatins. Several of the targets are structurally rThiosilvatins are a family of biologically active sulfenylated diketopiperazine natural products. The first members were reported over 40 years ago, but total synthesis of a thiosilvatin has remained elusive. Here, we describe the first, collective, synthesis of the parent epidithiodiketopiperazine (−)-dithiosilvatin and ten related thiosilvatins. Several of the targets are structurally revis

Blame and Proportionality

The ethics of blame includes conditions determining whether an instance of blame is permissible. One generally recognised condition is that blame should be proportionate. If it is not proportionate, that speaks against its permissibility. All the same, what exactly amounts to proportionate blame is currently under-theorised. In this paper, we aim to amend this. More precisely, we distinguish betwe

Assimilation and value of injection response data for enhanced contaminated site characterization

Collecting detailed hydrogeological data before, during, and after remediation campaigns is essential for effective management and monitoring of contaminated sites. As in-situ remediation injection treatment becomes more popular, recording the hydraulic response during these events offers an opportunity to collect detailed data on hydrogeological parameters. Often, multiple injections are performe

Asymmetric temperature effect on leaf senescence and its control on ecosystem productivity

Widespread autumn cooling occurred in the northern hemisphere (NH) during the period 2004-2018, primarily due to the strengthening of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation and Siberian High. Yet, while there has been considerable focus on the warming impacts, the effects of natural cooling on autumn leaf senescence and plant productivity have been largely overlooked. This gap in knowledge hinders our un

The market that could be but is not : market failure as ontological politics and the reconfiguration of public transport in Stockholm

Market failure is a concept invoked in both economics and public policy to justify governmental interventions in the marketplace. Drawing on more than five years of qualitative research on public transport in Stockholm, this paper explores how market failure, operating as a form of folk theory within public policy, informed a legal reform. This reform aimed to reconfigure an established contractua

Glancing back, looking forward : The Swedish Academy Dictionary completed after 130 years – now time for revision

The first part of the first volume of the Swedish Academy Dictionary (SAOB) was published in 1893 and the last volume was finished in 2023. Thus Sweden’s most extensive lexicographical project was completed after more than 130 years of work. But the completion is not the end of the dictionary project. Since 2024 a revision project is launched.
