Strategies and Considerations for Forming and Managing Community Advisory Boards from Health Research with Transgender and Nonbinary Communities
Purpose: There is limited research on the use of community advisory boards (CABs) in health research with transgender and nonbinary communities. Transgender communities are navigating challenging histories of health researcher exploitation and research distrust alongside exponential research growth. We explored strategies for forming and managing CABs when conducting transgender community-informed health research. Methods: We used purposive and s…
FDI , production networks and firm behaviour
Firms in developing countries can learn advanced technology and management know‐how through foreign direct investment (FDI). The extent (or the lack) of transmission of technology and knowledge depends on the structure of production networks. In the automotive industry, networks consist of vehicle assemblers and their layers of parts suppliers. We used the South African automotive industry as a case study to examine how the behaviour of assembler…
Creating employment and reducing emissions
South Africa faces huge challenges of poverty and unemployment, yet at the same time, needs to make a contribution to climate action. Historically, our pattern of development gave rise to the ‘minerals-energy complex’, locking us into low employment and high emissions development. It has proved difficult to change this structure, with political economy interests opposing shifts and high adjustment costs. We analyse policy instruments that can res…
Hyperlactataemia Following Crystalloid Cardiopulmonary Bypass Priming in Paediatric Cardiac Surgery—Benign or Malignant? A Retrospective Study
In this study population, transient postoperative hyperlactataemia in paediatric patients with crystalloid prime may not necessarily indicate tissue hypoxaemia. Despite a similar duration of ventilation in patients with and without hyperlactataemia, patients with hyperlactataemia had a longer duration of inotropes and ICU stay. Consideration should be given to discontinuing inotropes in patients with crystalloid prime and postoperative early hype…
Christendom
This book examines and seeks to explain the rise of Western Christianity from the beginning to the fourteenth century. Heather begins by arguing that ‘Christendom’ as we know it would never have co...
The role of regional value chains in fostering regional integration in Southern Africa
Regional integration is making steady progress in Africa and a key objective is to improve the prospects for industrialisation by expanding the regional market. The paper draws on a combination of trade data analysis and industry case studies to better understand the links and synergies between regional value chains and regional integration. The trade data and case studies of two diverse sectors (garments and food retailing) demonstrate the expan…
New perspectives on value chains in sub-Saharan Africa
The Covid-19 pandemic has caused major disruptions to global value chains (GVCs) around the world.1 Trade wars were already posing challenges to current GVC arrangements and encouraging efforts to
Regional integration, regional value chains and the automotive industry in Sub-Saharan Africa
To date, regional automotive value chains have not developed to any significant extent in Africa. Growing demand for vehicles across the continent, closer economic integration and the desire on the part of some larger African countries to establish an automotive industry have improved prospects. But major obstacles remain: the political geography of the subcontinent and the tendency of the industry to cluster in a few locations indicate that many…

Manufacturing development and the economic crisis
The particularly severe losses of manufacturing employment since 1982 should not obscure the evidence that declining growth rates can be traced back to the mid‐seventies. This article attempts to identify the most important structural features of the particular pattern of South African industrial development which are responsible for this deepening crisis. The manufacturing sector faces fundamental constraints on further expansion and these can b…

The origins of the world’s mythologies
Myths, or religions, have been and still are a feature of human societies always and everywhere. Where do they come from? What do they consist in? What is their role in human individual and collect
