Health Status And Delays In Referral-To-Treatment Waiting Times for Elective Admissions of Adults From Deprived Areas And Ethnic Minority Backgrounds
We studied all patients (total 53,611) whose referral-to-treatment (RTT) ended in hospital admission ('admitted pathways') between 01/2019 and 12/2023. Their health status and RTT waiting times were related to indices of deprivation (IMD: combined data from income, employment, education, health, crime, barriers to housing and services, and living environment) and to ethnicities (87% Caucasians; 6% South Asians; 5.1% Other Ethnicities; 0.9% Blacks…
Primary Commodities and Industrial Consumers
Most modern commodities serve as raw materials for industrial processes. From the eighteenth century, industrial demand drove new forms of production and the expansion of commodity production into new areas. While industries were shaped by the physical properties of commodities, commodities were also remade to suit changing industrial needs. New technologies rendered some commodities obsolete but could also give producers flexibility and resilien…
Shallow roots
In most narratives, the beginning of the oil palm industry in Southeast Asia boils down to entrepreneurial spirit, scientific research, and good fortune. The colonial context in which the industry emerged barely figures in the story. This article argues that colonial power was critical, providing access to land and labour that proved more important than plant selection, capital, or technology. The plantation model pushed the region ahead of Afric…
Imbibing the Lesson of Defiance”
This article examines a controversy over oil palm landscapes in colonial West Africa. Oil palms provide two important food products, palm oil and palm kernels, but they are also tapped for palm wine, an alcoholic drink produced from the sap of the tree. In Ghana (the colonial Gold Coast), the preferred wine-tapping method destroyed the tree, leading to conflicts among Ghanaians and with the colonial state over the best uses of oil palm trees. Man…
Lancashire and the “Undeveloped Estates”
This article revisits the idea of “cotton imperialism” in Britain, showing that metropolitan support for cotton projects in the British Empire was uneven. Using the records of the British Cotton Growing Association's (BCGA) fund-raising campaign of 1902–1914, the article shows that “empire cotton” did not receive widespread support in Britain. In Lancashire, some cotton capitalists financed the movement for empire cotton, but many others refused …
Colonial Cuisine
This article uses food as a window on the British colonization of Northern Nigeria between 1900 and 1914. It examines how Britons consumed food in the material and social contexts of colonialism and argues that food was an important tool for defining boundaries between rulers and the ruled. Colonial attitudes toward food expose the tension between propaganda and practice in contemporary texts that enthusiastically supported Britain's 'civilizing …
