What are the mechanisms driving the early stages of embedded researcher interventions? A qualitative process evaluation in English local government
Navigating eco-anxiety and eco-detachment: Educators’ strategies for raising environmental awareness given students’ disconnection from nature
Awareness of environmental problems such as climate change can motivate action, but educators debate whether to raise students’ awareness \ngiven that it may provoke eco-anxiety. We have even less understanding \nof how these relationships are affected by young people’s growing disconnection from nature. Through 28 semi-structured interviews in Canada and \nthe United Kingdom, we explore how educators perceive students’ nature \nconnection and ec…
What limits Muslim communities' access to nature? Barriers and opportunities in the United Kingdom
Recreation in protected areas can greatly contribute to health and wellbeing, but there exist significant demographic disparities in protected area use across Europe and North America. Minority ethnic groups, in particular, are often underrepresented in protected areas due to a variety of cultural, economic, and discriminatory barriers. Muslims are one of the fastest growing minority ethnic communities in Western countries but have received littl…

When screens replace backyards: Strategies to connect digital-media-oriented young people to nature
Children’s connection to nature (CTN) is declining with each generation, a concerning trend given that CTN is positively linked to wellbeing and environmentalism. A primary cause of this decline is that twenty-first-century youth engage with screens for several hours each day, which to a large extent replaces nature-based play. Researchers have proposed that this change represents a transition in human orientation, particularly in Westernized soc…
Unsaying Law The Voice of Longing
The humble one prays for Justice. The cynic calls to him and says: "I see you pray everyday, but have you ever received a reply?". He halts his prayer and falls away, confused. In a troubled sleep a voice comes through a dream and asks "Why have you stopped praying?" -- "I have never received an answer". The dream voice says: "But your longing is the response you wait for. It is the longing that draws you into union with your beloved
Dreamings from law's dark night
Upon entering the strangeness of the North American prairie, a pioneer remarked: 'I found no path, no trail but only bush and water. Wherever I looked I saw no native land - but foreign.' A strangeness has already preceded this settler. It is the profound lack of unity between a man and his environment, a lack of sympathy with the feelings prompted by the new land. This occurrence is the incessant resettlement of space within which the man finds …
The Capitalist System
The Social Relations of Production At the Point of Production
Personal Traits and "Success" in Schooling and Work
The group peer rating technique is employed to develop highly reliable measures of 16 personality traits for 445 adult workers and 237 high school seniors. Several of these traits are found to have high predictive validity for pay differentials, supervisor's ratings, and school grades. Dimensions derived from multidimensional scaling of the traits explain between 19 and 43 percent of the variance in criterion variables, and the corresponding vali…
Stages in Corporate Stability and the Risks of Corporate Failure
Few would deny that the U.S. economy is today dominated by huge corporations. Much recent writing has proposed that these corporations form a stable and monopolistic (or oligopolistic) "core" around which a more competitive "peripheral" sector exists. Firms in the core are said to be "eternal," while firms in the periphery demonstrate the mortality and high turnover expected in competitive industries. In another context, Paul Baran and Paul Sweez…
The Social Relations of Production in The Firm and Labor Market Structure
Up Against the American Myth
Economic Sophistication in Nineteenth Century Congressional Tariff Debates
One of the most controversial economic issues confronting the American public during the nineteenth century was that of protection. The plea for a protective tariff had been raised as soon as the First Congress met in 1789. The issue was sharply debated off and on throughout the nineteenth century but never finally resolved. There is now a large literature relating the outcome of this issue to the economic and political interests of various invol…
