Inequality declined in the Bronze Age city of Mohenjo-daro
Mohenjo-daro was a major city of the Indus Civilisation ( c . 2600–1900 BC), with excavations revealing evidence for public infrastructure, civic amenities and hundreds of residences. Archaeologists traditionally assume that urbanism is accompanied by economic stratification, but, at Mohenjo-daro, qualitative evidence of inequality is absent. Drawing on early excavation data, the authors here calculate Gini coefficients of residence area, providi…

I’m Here, I’m Part of This as Well’: Supporting the Contextualised Needs of Female Partners of Prostate Cancer Survivors Living in Rural/Remote Areas—A Qualitative Study
Female partners of prostate cancer (PCa) survivors are a cohort of cancer carers exposed to social and economic vulnerability. This vulnerability can be compounded by the impact of living in rural/remote areas, yet the experiences of these partners have received little attention and a gender‐based approach is needed. We conducted an exploratory qualitative study to examine the experiences of female partners of PCa survivors living in rural/remote…
Meeting the Urgent Need and Growing Demand for Archaeological Synthesis
Douglas Price-have made the journal our discipline's premier outlet for archaeological synthesis (Feinman and Nicholas 2026).Under their stewardship, the journal became a countervailing force against an ever-expanding range of regional and methodological specializations that create subgroups within our field.While specialization is necessary to improve our knowledge of the human past, it can also isolate practitioners into small communities and d…
Material flow analysis for archaeology: Developing an account of medieval social metabolism using the excavation archive from Wharram Percy
Globalizing Europe: A History
Globalizing Europe explores modern Europe's myriad entanglements with the wider world, considering the continent not only as an engine but also as a product of global transformations. It looks at the ways in which the global movements of peoples and ideas, goods and raw materials, flora and fauna have impacted life on the continent over the centuries. Bringing together a group of leading historians, the book shows how the history of Europe can be…
Regional networks in revolt: Opposition to the Valois in Gascony at the end of the Hundred Years’ War, c.1452–1453
This article offers a reassessment of late medieval resistance to the Valois monarchy, through examining south-western France in the mid-fifteenth century as a case study. Whereas modern scholarship has often foregrounded Valois success and treated Gascony as sliding inexorably into the maw of the French state, it is shown here that a deep-rooted revolt against King Charles VII occurred in the south-west in 1452–53, in conjunction with Gascon exi…

Carers of Aboriginal children with a disability were recruited from an Australian metropolitan Aboriginal community-controlled health service. In-depth, semistructured inte…
Assessment of capacity for Health Policy and Systems Research and Analysis in seven African universities: Results from the CHEPSAA project
The importance of health policy and systems research and analysis (HPSR+A) is widely recognized. Universities are central to strengthening and sustaining the HPSR+A capacity as they teach the next generation of decision-makers and health professionals. However, little is known about the capacity of universities, specifically, to develop the field. In this article, we report results of capacity self- assessments by seven universities within five A…

Behind Closed Doors: At Home in Georgian England, by Amanda Vickery
Elegant, witty, and dressed to impress, Amanda Vickery’s extensively researched study presents a series of splendid reflections on life at home in Georgian England. The Gentleman’s Daughter: Women’s Lives in Georgian England (1998) showed what it was like to be female and from the North-West; her new book moves on to consider how happiness could be found in middle age amid material success in a sexually fulfilling marriage. Bliss! If, as Vickery …

Syrian Jewry in Transition, 1840-1880, by Yaron Harel
Yaron Harel's exceptionally rich and rewarding book marks a major milestone in our understanding of the history of Jews in Arab lands and, more generally, the changing position of Ottoman religious minorities during the Tanzimat era. No other account of Jewish life in the Ottoman Empire of which I am aware combines archival depth and attention to detail with conceptual breadth and a willingness to challenge existing assumptions in quite this way.…
Good governance and corruption in the health sector: Lessons from the Karnataka experience
Strengthening good governance and preventing corruption in health care are universal challenges. The Karnataka Lokayukta (KLA), a public complaints agency in Karnataka state (India), was created in 1986 but played a prominent role controlling systemic corruption only after a change of leadership in 2001 with a new Lokayukta (ombudsman) and Vigilance Director for Health (VDH). This case study of the KLA (2001-06) analysed the:Scope and level of po…

Abraham Joshua Heschel: Recasting Hasidism for Moderns
Abraham Joshua Heschel is generally seen as an American Jewish religious thinker. When he is taught, it is primarily in the context of American Judaism. His mature works were published here, and his greatest impact was on Americans, Christians as well as Jews. In the public realm, Heschel is best remembered for his friendship with Martin Luther King, Jr, his marching at Selma (“my legs were praying ...!”), and his leading role in opposition to th…

Passionate competitors: The foundation of competitive ballroom dancing in South Africa (1920s-1930s)
By the turn of the nineteenth century ballroom dancing had become a popular social pastime in Europe, North-America and South Africa. The years leading up to the First World War saw a number of South African social dancers, like their Western counterparts, striving to perfect the steps of these imported, ballroom dance routines. Dancers danced partly out of a sheer passion for movement but, more importantly, to maintain and increase their social …

Maids, Migrants and Occupational Health in the London Sex Industry
It has been argued that norms of occupational health have weakened with diversification in the sex industry. We explore this issue in walk-in flats in London, focusing on relationships between managers (maids) and sex workers. Today, most maids are local and most sex workers are 'migrants'. We collected data on 117 maids and sex workers, and carried out intensive fieldwork with seven maids and 17 sex workers. Managers take prime responsibility fo…

Two hundred thirteen persons were randomly assigned to one of five antistigm…
