‘Until You Get the Diagnosis You're Forever in Limbo’—Parents' Experiences of Waiting for an Attention‐Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Assessment With Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services
BACKGROUND: Parents in the United Kingdom seeking an assessment for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) for their child experience a significant wait before receiving an appointment with Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), yet little has been written on how parents experience this period. Through qualitative interviews, we sought to understand how the period of waiting from being accepted onto a service waitlist and r…
The relationship between housing and asylum seekers’ mental health
Unhappy birthday! Women, Peace and Security at 25
This year–2025–the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda marks its 25th anniversary, a milestone that invites both reflection and reckoning. WPS was born from United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1325, unanimously adopted on October 31, 2000, and few at the time could have foreseen how widely it would spread, becoming the largest thematic domain of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), and sparking hundreds of national action…

Don’t bring race into it”
Based on interviews with UK civil servants working on counterterrorism, this article examines how racialised and gendered organisational norms govern the production and circulation of knowledge in government departments.It further reflects on their implications for policymakers and academics seeking to introduce critical perspectives into counterterrorism policymaking.Mobilising Charles W. Mills's concept of white ignorance, I explore how routini…
Diversity of thought as ‘mission critical
The idea that diversity and inclusion in policymaking institutions is a national security imperative because it enhances ‘diversity of thought’ has proliferated among policymakers in recent years. Building on critical, feminist and postcolonial scholarship arguing that constructions of gender, race and class undergird hegemonic militaristic and colonial approaches to security, this article analyses how the discourse on diversity of thought occasi…
Towards an abolitionist feminist peace
Ever more doubts are being raised over the ‘transformative potential’ of the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda and whether it brings us closer to realising feminist peace. Underpinning a current of WPS activism and scholarship is a radical conceptualisation of feminist peace rooted in anti-militarism, anti-capitalism, and anti-imperialism. This strand shares many commonalities with abolition feminism, yet the two literatures and movements ar…
‘Someone who’s there for you … even in your darkest days’
Birth relatives of adopted children in the UK are entitled to independent support during and after adoption, but types of support vary and there is little evidence of what works. This mixed-methods study is an evaluation of a psychotherapeutic counselling service for birth relatives operating across five areas of England. Case records of 304 birth relatives referred over a two-year period were examined retrospectively. Service user questionnaires…
Exposure to potentially morally injurious events and mental health outcomes among frontline workers affected by the coronavirus pandemic
Efforts to facilitate and maintain the well-being of the public health workforce should specifically address critical incidents encountered by frontline workers that have embedded moral and ethical challenges. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)
Critical Ethnography in National Security Institutions
Although ethnographic methods have yielded important insights into the inner workings of many political institutions, their use in the study of institutions engaged in national security policy making and practice has been more limited. Common features of security institutions raise methodological and ethical concerns for participant observers: they are hard to access, handle classified information, and their proximity to the use of violence creat…
Masculinities perspectives”
Feminist scholars have long explored the relationships between masculinities, femininities, and war, yet men are rarely named in Women, Peace and Security (WPS) policies, and masculinities even less commonly. Some activists in favor of bringing analysis of masculinities into WPS policies propose that a focus on reshaping masculinities and femininities as a strategy for resisting militarism is necessary to return the agenda to what they perceive a…
Perceptions of Dogs in the Workplace
With growing interest in the value of animal companionship to human health, and increasing business awareness of promoting work-based health innovations and improving employees’ feelings of support, there has been a rise in interest about allowing dogs in the workplace (e.g., “Take your dog to work day” initiative; Pet Sitters International, 2015). However, there is little scientific literature about the advantages or disadvantages of such practi…

What happened next’
This is the first report from a study of outcomes for 114 children from 49 families assessed in an expert multi-disciplinary service during care proceedings. The study investigated the extent of children’s adaptation following judicial decisions made in the proceedings and what factors might be involved in changes in the children’s adaptation and well-being. We also aimed to investigate the reliability of the expert placement and treatment recomm…
Understanding green infrastructure
The idea of “green infrastructure” has experienced a quick emergence in planning policy with little opportunity to reflect on the meanings attached to the concept by different interests. This has contributed to confusion and discomfort with the “lack of understanding” among planning practitioners in England who argue that green infrastructure could be a “corruptible concept”. Here I respond to the resistance to multiple meanings of green infrastr…
