Voluntarism and the Voluntary Sector
Understanding voluntarism in an era of globalization, state restructuring, and demographic ageing has become a key research and policy challenge in the twenty‐first century. Across the world, and in countries of the Global North in particular, the voluntary sector has evolved into a source of welfare provisioning alongside the state, as well as a space of resistance at local, subnational, and international levels. Over the past four decades, the …
Palliating inside the lines: The effects of borders and boundaries on palliative care in rural Canada
Investigating Environmental Determinants of Injury and Trauma in the Canadian North
Unintentional injury and trauma rates are disproportionately high in Inuit regions, and environmental changes are predicted to exacerbate injury rates. However, there is a major gap in our understanding of the risk factors contributing to land-based injury and trauma in the Arctic. We investigated the role of environmental and other factors in search and rescue (SAR) incidents in a remote Inuit community in northern Canada using a collaborative m…

Bee brood consumption: An alternative explanation for hypervitaminosis A in KNM-ER 1808 (Homo erectus) from Koobi Fora, Kenya
Therapeutic Cauterization of Periodontal Abscesses in a Prehistoric Northwest Coast Woman
Severe alveolar resorption due to chronic marginal periodontitis is ubiquitous in prehistoric Northwest Coast skulls. Deliberate burning of infected dental tissue, associated with periodontal abscessing of severely worn mandibular left molars, is described in a female Native American from the Pendar Canal site (DeRt2), British Columbia, dating from 1090 ± 130 B.P. This is the first archeological evidence among prehistoric peoples of cauterization…
