The Universal Periodic Review
At its introduction in 2006, scholars were sceptical of the United Nations (UN) Universal Periodic Review (UPR), doubting whether its cooperative, ‘soft law’ approach would be able to affect positive changes to states’ human rights practices. Yet research on its three cycles to date is replete with evidence of the mechanism’s impact. What accounts for this? The theory of acculturation, which highlights states’ socialisation, is the most salient e…
The UK Joint Committee on Human Rights and the United Nations Universal Periodic Review
This article critically appraises the extent that the UK Parliament’s Joint Committee on Human Rights has engaged with the UN’s Universal Periodic Review and its recommendations on the UK’s human rights situation. It initially explores the Universal Periodic Review process, the UK’s implementation of its recommendations, and posits that a contributing factor to poor implementation is a lack of mobilization of domestic actors. The UK’s Parliament,…

Improving cervical cancer screening rates in an urban HIV clinic
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected women are at increased risk of invasive cervical cancer; however, screening rates remain low. The objectives of this study were to analyze a quality improvement intervention to increase cervical cancer screening rates in an urban academic HIV clinic and to identify factors associated with inadequate screening. Barriers to screening were identified by a multidisciplinary quality improvement committee at …

Use of mental health services for anxiety, mood, and substance disorders in 17 countries in the WHO world mental health surveys
Mental and Physical Comorbid Conditions and Days in Role Among Persons With Arthritis
OBJECTIVE: To estimate the prevalence of comorbidity among people with arthritis in the US adult population and to determine the role of comorbidity in accounting for the association of arthritis with days out of role (a measure of inability to work or carry out normal activities). METHODS: Data come from the National Comorbidity Survey Replication (NCS-R), a nationally representative household survey of 9,282 respondents ages 18 and older carrie…

OBJECTIVE: To provide data on patterns and predictors of 12-month mental health treatment in the United States from the recently completed National Comorbidity Survey Replication. DESIGN AND SETTING: Nationally representative face-to-face household survey using a fully…
Reducing the dependence of clinical judgment on the immediate context
Mineral resources of the Rincon wilderness study area, Pima County, Arizona
Survey and U.S. Bureau of Mines have been conducting mineral surveys of wilderness and primitive areas. Studies and reports of all primitive areas have been completed. Areas officially designated as "wilderness," "wild," or "canoe" when the Act was passed were incorporated into the National Wilderness Preservation System, and some of them are presently being studied. The Acts provide that areas under consideration for wilderness designation shoul…
Shapers of Culture
This article describes the functions that editors perform within publishing houses whose goals combine both economic and cultural components. It discusses the extent to which editors act as relatively passive gatekeepers of cultural forces or as active shapers of them. In light of historical evidence, it suggests that changes are currently taking place which will serve to reduce the importance of the editor in shaping the content of what is publi…
Introduction to Structuralism
Explaining Educational Choice
Past research on educational choice has revealed good correlations between it and social class. Such research has two weaknesses; it fails to specify a mechanism connecting structural attributes and individual behaviour, and it cannot account for deviants. One attempt to remedy these deficiencies is supplied by explanations cast in terms of class values. This paper criticises such explanations, and suggests that the real determinant is to be foun…

Publishing Managers, Publishing House Organization and Role Conflict
This paper examines the role situation of managers in book-publishing houses, and in particular the conflicts that different definitions of culture tend to generate. It sees the pattern of authority as tending to exacerbate conflicts by eliminating common strategies of conflict management and reduction. It further considers the general problem created by attempts to impose norms of moral commitment where the ideal is defined by others
The Aku-Ahwa and Aku-Maga post-burial rites of the Jukun peoples of northern Nigeria
The records of the Jukun peoples of Northern Nigeria are as vague as those of most Nigerian tribes with the exception, perhaps, of the Fulani and the Hausa. It is thought that in the mid-fifteenth century they occupied the whole of the north-eastern corner of Nigeria and according to Fulani records they had gained the whole of the north two centuries later. One hundred years of glorious rule ended when they were defeated by the Fulani. Now they a…
