Understanding grieving for a chatbot using two concepts from Wittgenstein
In February 2023, changes to the AI chatbot Replika elicited a grieving response from a number of its users. This paper examines how some users of Replika expressed their sense of loss: in particular, those who write as if the chatbot was a subject in its own right. It is easy even for those who feel some sympathy for these users to dismiss the way in which they express themselves as inappropriate, on the grounds that the entity for which they ar…
A qualitative investigation into opportunity structures and disjuncture in the education-employment transition
We present a small-scale qualitative study of the transition from full time education to employment, focusing on young people who are just approaching this phase of their lives.

We also interviewed significant professionals working with young people: school teachers, careers leaders, and local employers. From the responses we identify four common themes: hopes and …
Single-Dose Psilocybin for a Treatment-Resistant Episode of Major Depression

The primary end point was the change from baseline to week 3 in the total score on the Montgomery-Å…
Politics in the Piyasa
The emergence of gay identities in Istanbul is often regarded as a practical result of mobilisation by minority sexual rights NGOs. Indeed, Istanbul Pride emerged in the early 2000s as a widely-referenced exemplar of the political promise of street-level activism in Turkey. Tracing how gay initially was used in the nightlife market around İstiklal Street and reconstructing the early history of agitation for an annual Pride march, I argue that str…
