Reconstruction at the meso level
Meso‐level institutions are integral to everyday life but are often overlooked in post‐civil war rebuilding efforts. This study, based on a qualitative dataset of 27 interviews and 11 focus groups conducted in Malakand Division, Pakistan, reveals that many of the institutions that are vital to local stakeholders have been neglected in the region's reconstruction efforts. In addition to considerable loss of life, the conflict between the Taliban a…
Sociology amid Climate Breakdown
We teach sociology on a dangerously heating planet. The first half of the 2020s has witnessed extreme heatwaves, devastating floods, catastrophic droughts, agricultural shocks and rampant wildfires: harbingers of a situation that is due to escalate towards the end of the century. In this article, we argue that for sociological education to meet the existential challenge posed by climate breakdown, we must do more than simply add climate to the cu…
Profile
The emergence of Extinction Rebellion (XR) in 2018 as a global movement led to the establishment of chapters all around the world. Much existing work has focused on cases located in the UK, Western Europe and the Anglosphere. This profile presents a case study of the formation of XR in The Gambia as an example of further diffusion of the movement. We examine how partial democratisation opened up space for contention, which in turn led to the adop…
Glued on for the grandkids
This paper explores the gendered politics of care in global environmental activism. Drawing on interviews with 96 Extinction Rebellion activists worldwide and a close analysis of 10 older women within this dataset, we contend that ‘care’ both replicated and contradicted the patriarchal order. Older women in Extinction Rebellion have often been relied upon to take on much of the caring labour involved in the maintenance of the movement at local an…
Confronting the climate crisis in Africa
Climate change is increasingly impacting the social, economic and political space across the African continent. The compounding character of such impacts reinforces existing inequalities, raising important considerations around climate justice. Growing awareness has seen the emergence of activists working for solutions and promoting alternative futures, working across scales and sectors to address the complexity of the threats. We examine environ…
The Meaning of Contention
Contention is everywhere nowadays, permeating the fabric of society and constituting an important element of many different social relationships. It is also a central topic across a wide range of social scientific disciplines. Following the most contentious decade in over a century, scholarship on the topic of “contention” is booming. Nonetheless, we still lack a conceptual approach to “contention” as a general academic term beyond the bounds of …
Spreading rebellion
This article offers an analysis of social movement transnationalisation, using Extinction Rebellion as its case study. In order to investigate the temporal and geographical dynamics of Extinction Rebellion’s transnational diffusion, and the interaction of these dynamics with protest events, we draw on two primary datasets: one describing where and when all 1265 of the movement’s local groups emerged globally, the other containing all major protes…

Ethnic Dignity and the Ulster-Scots Movement in Northern Ireland
An overview of the features of chatbots in mental health
Ethnicizing Ulster’s Protestants
The Ulster-Scots ethnolinguistic ‘revival,’ often considered to be the ethnic, cultural or linguistic expression of unionism and loyalism, has recently made inroads into schools across Northern Ireland. With intercommunal educational segregation pervasive in the province, the teaching of such an ‘ethnic identity’ has potential sociological ramifications. Utilizing an in-depth textual analysis of the Ulster-Scots Agency’s educational materials and…
Diaspora, defeatism, and dignity
The notion of an American diaspora has become increasingly salient among the minority of Ulster Protestants who ascribe to the "Ulster-Scots" ethnic identity in Northern Ireland. Especially in light of the well-established conception of an Irish-American diaspora, the effort Ulster's "Protestant community" to construct and delineate a separate, non-Irish genealogical diaspora reveals much about their collective self-conceptions and aspirations. I…

Unionism, Loyalism, and the Ulster‐Scots Ethnolinguistic ‘Revival
The U lster‐ S cots ethnolinguistic ‘revival’ in N orthern Ireland has been appropriated, promoted, and internalized by many across the varieties of unionism and loyalism. Much of the academic literature on U lster‐ S cots has focused on political and cultural dimensions of the ‘revival’. This article analyses the written promotion of the U lster‐ S cots movement by those who purport to conceptualize it primarily in terms of a literary‐linguistic…
Hand's Academy Challenge
Michael Hand has recently challenged certain religious organisations that run Academies in the United Kingdom to devise and pursue their own faith-based curricula in their schools. In this short article I examine some of the problems Hand's challenge might encounter, including whether religious conceptions of worthwhile activities and of human flourishing can be as devoid of religious beliefs as Hand would seem to wish and whether his challenge c…
Seventy years of south Indian hunter-gatherer research
Using vignettes to explore judgements of patients about safety and quality of care
BACKGROUND There is a growing body of evidence that safe outcomes and quality care are important to patients. For the patient, evaluations of safety and quality are made on the basis of the interpersonal interactions that they have with health professionals as well as the technical aspects of their care. OBJECTIVE In this study, we investigated the extent to which outcome of care (harm or not) and relationship (good or bad) with the care provider…

Using blogging to promote clinical reasoning and metacognition in undergraduate physiotherapy fieldwork programs
This qualitative study investigated the impact of using blogs on the clinical reasoning and meta-cognitive skills of undergraduate physiotherapy students in a fieldwork education program. A blog is a web based document that enables individuals to enter comments and read each others' comments in a dynamic and interactive manner. In this study, final year physiotherapy students were randomly allocated to group blogs to share their reflections on th…
Combining Concurrent and Sequential Methods to Examine the Usability and Readability of Websites With Information About Medicines
Research of websites with information about medicines has not previously taken sufficient account of the design aspects that may affect user’s interacting with the site. This explanatory study combined four concurrent usability methods (user testing, think aloud protocol, observation, and tracking the participant’s online actions), with a sequential interview to examine five websites. Site design and content were found to obstruct participants’ a…

Peer assisted learning and blogging
The use of peer assisted learning in clinical education is explored in this case study. Groups of undergraduate physiotherapy students were structured into communities of practice during the second half of their clinical fieldwork program. They collaborated online in an asynchronous manner, using information communications technology (blogs) and focussed their discussion on professional practice and evidence based practice issues. Each blog group…

Hand on Religious Upbringing
Michael Hand's recent paper, ‘Religious Upbringing Reconsidered', re-opens a debate that was flourishing over a decade ago in this journal and, long before that, in the works of others. In this response I examine Hand's claims that earlier contributions to the debate passed over the central problem and that he can solve that problem. I endeavour to show that several of Hand's arguments, such as those dealing with indoctrination, as well as his cl…

Aboriginal Community Incomes and Migration in the NWT
This paper examines the likely impact of induced migration from smaller communities to larger centres in the event of further cuts in federal expenditures in the NWT. With the exception of a few communities located near mineral resource industries, government employment and transfer payments provide the major source of cash income for most aboriginal communities. This income is critical as a source of money to invest in machinery and equipment to…

Mackenzie, Gardner and Tan each offer a response
Some Achilles' Heels of Thinking Skills
Steven Higgins and Vivienne Baumfield have recently attempted to defend the much discussed idea of general thinking skills against attacks from three quarters: what they regard as a priori objections, which they liken to Zeno's paradox that Achilles will not catch the tortoise; domains theories of knowledge, which oppose the idea of thinking skills being general and transcending domains; and the claim that experts use subject specific knowledge, …
Thinking Critically About Critical Thinking
Victor Quinn advocates teaching critical thinking as a curriculum subject. He has accused Professor John E. McPeck, a vehement critic of such proposals, not only of being wrong but also of being in need of such a critical thinking course himself. In this paper we examine the five supposed critical thinking weaknesses of which McPeck is accused and consider what Quinn's arguments tell us about critical thinking, its skills, its priorities and its …
Should We Teach Children to be Open-Minded? Or, is the Pope Open-Minded about the Existence of God
The recommendation that we encourage children to be open-minded has been gathering strength. Yet given the everyday meaning of ‘being open-minded about something’, we may decide to reject this recommendation because it proscribes teaching and learning. There again, recent philosophical accounts of open-mindedness seem to oppose everyday meaning and lead to the absurd conclusion that the Pope is open-minded about the existence of God. This paper s…

The QWERTY keyboard hampers schoolchildren
The introduction of microcomputers into schools has created a new generation of unskilled keyboard users whose needs are quite different from those of the skilled typist. In particular, their interaction with the keyboard is likely to be the keying in of a single word or a single letter in response to a prompt from a computer‐aided learning program, rather than the continuous typing of running text. A standard keyboard skills program for the BBC …

Four Anxieties and a Reassurance
In suppport of the idea that education should encourage open-mindedness, Hare and McLaughlin have argued that being open-minded about an issue, in a philosophically well-supported sense of ‘open-mindedness’, need not prevent one from holding a firm belief on that issue. In this paper I examine the lack of cohesion in this sense of ‘open-mindedness’, explain why I continue to be anxious about the tensions between open-mindedness and holding firm b…
