Interventions to address individual/household food insecurity in Europe since Covid-19
Since 2020, Europe has faced several system shocks which have led to a cost-of-living crisis and an increase in prevalence of food insecurity. These events have sparked a rise and diversification of local and national responses to household food insecurity throughout the region. This scoping review aimed to identify the interventions that have been examined in the scientific literature targeted at individuals/households experiencing food insecuri…
Risky calls
Despite concerns having been voiced internationally about the validity and reliability of mobile phone evidence, there remain large gaps in our understanding of how police acquire and process mobile phone data, and the risks associated with this work. This paper fills some of these gaps by drawing upon qualitative data gathered during an ethnographic study of the role of forensic sciences and technologies in British homicide investigations. Speci…
The journey not the destination
If we are to treat adaptive expertise as a threshold concept, the authors argue we must consider it a journey rather than a destination, requiring learners to respond to novel situations in innovative ways
Case Report
Purpose The aim of this case report was to describe the sleep responses in a male combat sport athlete, who was engaging in both chronic (CWL) and acute (AWL) weight loss practices in order to reduce body mass for a national competition. Methods During the first seven weeks of training (Phases 1 and 2), the athlete adhered to a daily energy intake (EI) equating to their resting metabolic rate (1700 kcal·day −1 ) followed by a reduction in EI (915…
Backstage at the Barristers’ Case Conference
Socio-legal ethnographies have focused largely on the dramaturgical themes present in the competing performances seen in adversarial trials. Drawing on ethnographic observations of British homicide investigations, we illuminate the hidden “backstage” space of prosecution barristers’ case conferences. Using Goffman’s dramaturgical framework, we analyze the interactions, deliberations, and negotiations that are enacted between barristers, homicide …

Perceptions of Antenatal Exercise in Pregnant Females and the Impact of Covid-19
Exercise during pregnancy presents many benefits for the mother and baby. Yet, pregnancy is characterised by a decrease in exercise. Studies have reported barriers to antenatal exercise. The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic may have further exacerbated barriers to antenatal exercise as pregnant females faced many challenges. Rich, in-depth exploration into pregnant female's perceived barriers to antenatal exercise during COVID-19 is imperative. Qu…
Promoting Practitioner Research through a Social Work Teaching Partnership
Research is critical for effective and innovative social work practice, yet social workers do not always have time to engage with research and there are limited accounts of how practitioners can undertake research in practical and meaningful terms (Mitchell, Lunt, and Shaw 2010). Using a reflective, storytelling methodology (Beresford 2016), which centres experiential knowledge, we describe how one regional social work teaching partnership nurtur…
Crafting Credible Homicide Narratives
Drawing upon qualitative data gathered during a four-year ethnographic study of homicide investigation in Britain, this paper explores how detectives, scientists, and other experts use findings from forensic sciences and technologies (FSTs) when constructing and modifying pre-trial homicide narratives. We consider how these narratives unfold from the earliest moments of the investigation and are told and re-told, as they are assembled into one co…
We need to talk about dialogue
In this paper, we explore the importance of dialogue for collaborative sensemaking during homicide investigation, focusing upon interactions between detectives, forensic scientists and other experts involved in managing and undertaking forensic work. Drawing on data from a 4-year ethnographic study of British homicide investigations, we provide insights from criminal justice actors about both the value of, and barriers to, inter-professional and …

Capturing killers
Drawing upon quantitative and qualitative data gathered during a four-year ethnographic study of 44 British homicide investigations, this paper advances the sparse literature on how closed-circuit television (CCTV) contributes to criminal investigations and the risks associated with its use. Based on insights gleaned from interviews with homicide detectives, analysis of case files and observations of live homicide investigations, we examine how C…
Effects of Acute Exercise on Cutaneous Thermal Sensation
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of exercise intensity on the thermal sensory function of active and inactive limbs. In a randomised and counterbalanced manner, 13 healthy young male participants (25 ± 6 years, 1.8 ± 0.1 m, 77 ± 6 kg) conducted: (1) 30-min low-intensity (50% heart rate maximum, HRmax; LOW) and (2) 30-min high-intensity (80% HRmax; HIGH) cycling exercises, and (3) 30 min of seated rest (CONTROL). Before, immediately …

Women in British Public Life, 1914 - 50
An examination of the ways in which women challenged the British educational, employment and welfare systems after the franchise. Helen Jones explores how women adapted their strategies to confront the system from within, and what constraints were imposed on them. She also examines the active role that British women played in Continental Europe, and an important comparative chapter looks at the experience of women in France, Germany, Italy, Austr…
Civil Defence in Britain, 1938-1945
This article challenges historians' concentration on national, class, and gender identities in wartime. It argues that those civilians recruited to work in air raids, as Air Raid Wardens and in the Auxiliary Fire Service, developed an intimacy within each group born of conflict, training, socializing, discussing, and experiencing danger together in a confined and identifiable space. They enjoyed a close bond of friendship that helped create a par…
National, Community and Personal Priorities
This article analyses a single strand of national, community and personal priorities from the mid 1930s to the early 1940s when local community networks, composed mainly of women, supported refugees from the Nazis in activities that became a central part of many women's lives. The stand these women took against anti-Semitism in British society meant that their views and behaviour were in opposition to a dominant element in patriotic discourse. Ye…

Some Useful Sources
There is fundamental recognition that the human rights of women are ‘an inalienable, integral and indivisible part of universal human rights’ (Vienna Declaration and Programme of Action, para. 18). Violence creates tremendous obstacles to the achievement of rights for women and nation states are obligated to exercise due diligence in the eradication of violence against women and to prevent violence against women wherever it occurs. The following …

Social Approaches to an Industrial Past

The volume considers themes which are relatively new to archaeology: * the social context of production * gender * power and labour exploitation * imperialism and colonialism * production and technology
Visible Rights
This short article considers what surveillance and privacy mean to women experiencing violence and examines the extent to which such concepts have been overlaid with patriarchal assumptions, acting to mask the distinction between the private and the public and resulting in a global politics where only the public sphere is seen as suitable to political intervention. Using Afghanistan as a case study, the article demonstrates that while women as a …

Issues concerning the Health of Looked after Children
There is substantial evidence that looked after children have extensive health needs and disabilities, that they have often missed out on routine health surveillance and health promotion before entry to care or accommodation, but that at present they receive little compensatory care. Harriet Ward, Helen Jones, Margaret Lynch and Tricia Skuse discuss these issues. They look at how frequent changes of placement and poor inter-agency communication e…

Prison Discipline
The Woolf Report on the prison disturbances of April 1990 recommends, inter alia , that prison boards of visitors should no longer be responsible for aspects of prison discipline: rather, they should concentrate on their watchdog role. The Home Secretary has yet to respond to this suggestion. On the basis of a research study recently conducted on boards of visitors' hearings it is argued that no other solution to the criticisms which have long be…
