Brixton and Belfast: The English Young Christian Students Movement and Grassroots, Liberatory Theologies in post-1968 Britain
This article considers the activities of a generation of young English Catholics – mostly middle-class convent and grammar school students – who belonged to the international Young Christian Students movement. Through examining two decades of the YCS magazine, alongside its detailed Study Programmes and annual Conferences, it charts the organisation’s increasingly politicised engagement with social justice and decolonisation agendas (especially i…
The agony of peace: Russia's Occupation of Eastern Ukraine
The war in Ukraine is likely to end with Russia in occupation of all, or parts of, Crimea, Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson. While these regions should continue to be recognized as de jure part of Ukraine, they will not be fully under Kyiv's control. What should be done about this situation? It is tempting to conclude that Ukraine and its backers should devote themselves to overturning the hated occupation so that none of Ukraine is le…
Rural areas are more resilient than urban areas to the Covid-19 pandemic. Is it true? (Lessons from Indonesia)
The COVID-19 pandemic affected the world's life systems and food security.To deal with the food crisis, the Indonesian government has provided directives to maintain the availability of food supply chains in areas that are regional and national food sources.Restrictions on activities not directly related to the food chain indirectly affect the region's food security sustainability.The purpose of this study is to analyse the effect of the level of…

The Politics of Power Projection: The Pivot to Asia, Its Failure, and the Future of American Primacy
Why did the Obama administration's attempted pivot (or “rebalance”) to Asia fail? In this article, we argue that three interrelated domestic factors are to blame: hyper-partisanship in Washington, DC; the lack of a compelling foreign-policy narrative to make the pivot intelligible and attractive to a broad slice of the political class and domestic public; and the related failure to convince enough Americans that the pivot was necessary to boost t…
China and the United States: The case for smart appeasement
How can ties between the United States and China be restored to good health? In this provocation, I argue that the deterioration of US-China relations has become so severe that it is now incumbent upon China's leaders to pursue the “smart appeasement” of the United States – that is, to take dramatic measures designed to pull the rug from under anti-China forces in America while strengthening the hand of those who wish for more stable and producti…

Uneasy bedfellows? Fusing participatory and psychosocial principles in research with youth workers and young people
This article charts an attempt to fuse two arguably incompatible formulations of social research; one rooted in a commitment to democratic, participatory practice and the other rooted in a psychosocial epistemological frame. After setting out the broad precepts of the two methodological approaches, the article explores some theoretical and practical tensions that surfaced during a doctoral criminological study examining the desistance-promoting p…
Knowledge maps: A tool for online assessment with automated feedback
In higher education, most assessments or examinations comprise either multiple-choice items or open-ended questions such as modified essay questions (MEQs). Online concept and knowledge maps are potential tools for assessment, which might emphasize meaningful, integrated understanding of phenomena. We developed an online knowledge-mapping assessment tool, which provides automated feedback on student-submitted maps. We conducted a pilot study to i…

Self-affirmation improves performance on tasks related to executive functioning

The goal was to establish whether self-affirmation improved performance on these tasks. \n \nMethod: Participants (N = 83) were randomized to either a self-affirmation or a control task and then completed the compu…

Problems with Power-Transition Theory: Beyond the Vanishing Disparities Thesis
What happens when established states and rising powers meet on the world stage? Is conflict inevitable, or can adroit foreign policies produce peaceful accommodation between jostling Great Powers? Traditional power-transition theory tends to predict conflictual outcomes of shifting power, but this finding does not square with either the historical record or public policy-maker’s own intuitions about how international politics works. In this artic…

Not just a military base: Reframing Diego Garcia and the Chagos Islands
Situated in the middle of the Indian Ocean, approximately 2,000 miles off the coast of Kenya, the Chagos Archipelago could be considered Africa's easternmost extremity. Its ties to Africa date to the eighteenth century, when Chagos came to be ruled as part of the French (and, from 1810, British) colony of Mauritius. In 1965, Britain detached the Chagos Islands from Mauritius in order to form the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT)1 – the legali…
