How places are contesting the privatisation of local public services
The provision of essential public services — water, energy, health, housing, education, transport, social care and infrastructure — is a crucial determinant of successful regional socio-economic development. Public services favour community wellbeing, render places more attractive, fuel regional productivity and employment, help ameliorate inter-regional and urban–rural inequalities and play a key role in environmental sustainability (OECD, 2023)…
Searching for Memory
Region out of Place
Courtney Campbell's Region out of Place offers an engaging examination of the construction of regional identity in Brazil's Northeast that looks beyond the nation and the usual subjects of such accounts. From intellectual networks to World Cup football matches, Region out of Place shows that northeasterners looked to the world to cultivate a sense of belonging and identity while hedging against the inferior place assigned to them within Brazil's …
Setting History in Motion
This article examines the video essay in this issue, "Visualizing Resilience from the Periphery: Social Movements, Visual Archives, and the Megacity," and the video essay as a form of historical argumentation. First, the article traces how the video essay reconstructs a visual lexicon that fostered resilience among social movements from the urban peripheries of South America's most populous city, São Paulo, during Brazil's civil-military dictator…
Grassroots Archives
In recent years, coalitions of activists, artists, scholars, and community members have created archives composed of material related to social movements past and present with increasing frequency. These grassroots archives raise questions about the potential role of archives as generative spaces for democratizing history. This article explores this potential and the attendant challenges through a case study on an effort to preserve the memory of…
São Paulo Rising
This article examines grassroots constructions of a right to health in São Paulo's urban periphery during Brazil's civil-military dictatorship (1964-85). Centered on the rise of the Movimento de Saúde da Zona Leste (Health Movement of the East Zone), an agglomeration of neighborhood health movements, the article explores how grassroots movements came to articulate a notion of a right to health that incorporated the right to shape the city and the…
M aking the “C itizen C onstitution ”
This article examines popular participation in the making of Brazil's 1988 post-authoritarian “Citizen Constitution.” In 1987, Brazilians submitted 122 popular amendments ( emendas populares ) supported by over 12 million signatures to the National Constituent Assembly (1987–88). As this article contends, this extraordinary experiment in popular constitution-making problematizes notions of Brazil's transition from authoritarian to democratic rule…
The Origins of Informality in a Brazilian Planned City
Sixty years before Brasília, Belo Horizonte was constructed as Brazil’s first modern planned city (1894-1897). This article focuses on the role of land development in shaping inequality in Belo Horizonte, the first of four major planned cities in Brazil. In Belo Horizonte, political backers and urban planners viewed controlled land development as providing a clean break with the past and creating an industrial, Eurocentric modern future in the wa…
Evaluating the capacity building roles of the state and territory peak bodies in the Australian alcohol and other drug sector
The Australian alcohol and other drugs (AOD) sector has a diverse range of actors, including the nongovernment (NGO) service providers. Representing these services in each of Australian states and territories are AOD sector peak bodies. Their national network commissioned an evaluation of their capacity building (CB) activities and outcomes. The network and the evaluator developed a working definition of CB: Capacity building is a strategy that i…
Growth in syntactic complexity between four years and adulthood
Studies examining productive syntax have used varying elicitation methods and have tended to focus on either young children or adolescents/adults, so we lack an account of syntactic development throughout middle childhood. We describe here the results of an analysis of clause complexity in narratives produced by 354 speakers aged from four years to adulthood using the Expressive, Receptive, and Recall of Narrative Instrument (ERRNI). We show that…

Evidence of Biased Decision-Making in Betting Markets
Betting markets constitute naturalistic decision-making environments, which offer great potential for helping to understand individuals’ decision-making behavior. These markets feature many of the aspects of real-world decision environments. In particular, they are associated with rich, dynamic information sets, offer strong incentives to participants for success, require the commitment of the individual’s own resources, and involve repeated tria…

Michael A. Reynolds, Shattering Empires
Michael Reynolds’ impressive new study recounts the grinding Russo-Ottoman struggle in Anatolia and the Caucasus during the Great War that ultimately contributed to both empires’ collapse. More important, Reynolds’s account reframes radically and persuasively many longstanding assumptions about the relationship between the war and imperial collapse. Questioning the longstanding axiom that both states fell victim to modern nationalisms that sunder…

"Russian Statecraft after the "Imperial Turn
Willard Sunderland and Peter Holquist find in the same cohort of imperial officials-the "technocrats" in the Resettlement Administration-a key moment in the history of Russian statecraft (gosudarstvennost'), linked in turn to the Russian state's career as a "modern colonial empire." Thus, each historian seeks to ensconce within a larger institutional historical framework the burgeoning discussion occasioned over the last two decades by the "imper…

Social Movements and Network Analysis
This article examines organizational affiliations of 19th-century women reform leaders in New York State as a case study of relations among social movements. Network analysis techniques are used for the construction of matrices that (1) map the interconnections between organizations, (2) measure the intensity and directionality of those interconnections, (3) illuminate clusters of proximate organizations, and (4) identify groups central to the cl…
Native Americans and Leisure
Though leisure researchers have in recent years established a growing interest in cross-cultural leisure research, they have paid little attention to Native American communities. This evaluative review of literature examines Native American leisure beliefs and behaviors through related concepts such as play, games and parks. The article is also an examination of Native American value systems in general, with their relationships to leisure beliefs…
Structural Tensions in The Nineteenth Century Women's Movement
The organizational affiliations of four groups of nineteenth century women in New York State provide the basis for an exploration of tensions between local and national level organizations within a social movement. Information about overlapping membership among women's organizations over a period of almost seventy years is used to map the geography of connections between organizations affiliated with the early women's movement and other voluntary…
Native American land ethics
Native American land ethics are not well understood by many governmental natural resource managers. This article presents the results of interviews with selected tribal elders, tribal land managers, and tribal content experts concerning traditional beliefs and values forming a land ethic and how these influence tribal land management practices.

The Crisis of Russian Autocracy
Two men loom large in the waning days of the Russian empire: Lenin and Nicholas II--the former by force of his personality and ideas, the latter by virtue of his inherited dominion over one-sixth of the earth. Yet, although the victor has commanded scholarly attention commensurate with his historical importance, the loser has not. Nicholas was the linchpin of the autocratic system, but his key role has been largely ignored except for some dismiss…
The Trace of Absence
Deconstruction, as defined in my article on Hamlet', is process that occurs in the attempt to supplement a signifier for absent signified: system deconstructs even as it is constructed. There is no absolute beginning or end, but rather a perpetual repetition of beginnings throughout textual system. Each move made doubles back upon itself and erases itself. When action appears to be going forward it is moving backward. The system deconstructs even…

Native Americans and Alcohol
Alcohol use and abuse is widespread among Native Americans. As a result, much research has focused on this topic. To date, however, no comprehensive compilation of the literature exists. This article attempts to remedy the situation by providing a preliminary, annotated bibliography on the subject and a brief review of the various methodological and theo retical approaches reported in the literature. While the authors are in the process of compil…

Glance of Death dominant quality of glance for Sartre is quality of negation. force of negative is so overpowering in Sartre's description of The that world itself is described absence, an discovered at very core of my perception.' In this sense, absence appears necessarily, and paradoxically, as a precondition of (BN 22).

The Mystification of Vietnam
The reason for the relative success of Sticks and Bones as a representation of Vietnam is that it directly addresses the problem of the mystification of Vietnam: in the sense of not knowing, of refusing to know or repressing and denying what is known; in the sense of never having been there or of having been there and no longer being there; in the sense of lack or inability to produce an adequate image or representation of the meaning of Vietnam;…

Introducing optoelectronics through automated characterisation of devices and virtual measurement software
It is widely accepted that experimental work is essential for the student engineer. However, in the area of optoelectronics, the scope of many experiments has been limited by the issues of safety for the student, and the cost and complexity of the instruments and devices required. A step has been taken towards overcoming these limitations with the development of an integrated software environment for the automated characterisation of semiconducto…
