An integrated conceptual framework for belongingness: Re-evaluation, explication and synthesis of literature from the last 30 years
Belongingness is a universal human need, with strong links to mental health and wellbeing. It is an essential element of theoretical perspectives across clinical, social, organisational and educational domains. In the early 1990s, belongingness was rigorously described and operationalised leading to considerable ongoing research. Nevertheless, while overlapping substantially, theoretical conceptualisations to date have not coalesced into a unifie…
Adapting the capacities and vulnerabilities approach: A gender analysis tool
Gender analysis methodology is increasingly being considered as essential to health research because 'women's social, economic and political status undermine their ability to protect and promote their own physical, emotional and mental health, including their effective use of health information and services' {World Health Organization [Gender Analysis in Health: a review of selected tools. 2003; www.who.int/gender/documents/en/Gender.

On the Buses: A Response to ‘Between the Notes’
Promoting health, preserving culture: Adapting Rare in the Maasai context of Northern Tanzania
HIV/AIDS prevention strategies often neglect traditions and cultural practices relevant to the spread of HIV. The role of women in the HIV/AIDS context has typically been relegated to high-risk female groups such as sex workers, or those engaged in transactional sex for survival. Consequently, these perceptions are born out in the escalation of HIV/AIDS among communities, and female populations in particular where prevention frameworks remain cul…
Critical Reflections on 9/11
Aijaz Ahmad and Christopher Powell agree that the events are being used to realign global power, bolstering an inter-state system that provides the repressive undergirding of global capitalism. There is disagreement, however, on the way forward. Whereas Panitch and Wood look to the renewal of the democratic Left fighting within national contexts, Powell's call for the detachment of all peoples fromtheir states is more in line with the anarchist c…
Horse Maiming in the English Countryside: Moral Panic, Human Deviance, and the Social Construction of Victimhood
The societal reaction to a series of horse assaults in rural Hampshire during the 1990s was a rare example of a moral panic about crime and deviance in which animals other than humans occupy, or seemed to occupy, the central role of victim. This paper explores how the nature of the relationships between humans and animals is revealed through authoritative utterances about offenders and victims by the mass media, the police, and the humans who fel…

Kant's Fourth Paralogism
The Fourth Paralogism is, in a sense, something of a stepchild, either passed over in silence or given a minimal treatment in any discussion of the Paralogisms proper. Among recent commentators, Jonathan Bennett cursorily dismisses the Fourth Paralogism in two quick paragraphs,' while Patricia Kitcher, in an article entitled Paralogisms, refers to three paralogisms,' and does not mention the fourth at all. This is done, of course, not without som…
Young Women and Science: Do we need more science
This article considers some of the implications of women's absence from science and technological fields at all levels of the education system. The authors consider whether the greater participation by women in scientific and technological studies would influence significantly their position in society. The discussion is placed in the context of the ‘needs of the economy’, and the question as to whether or not there is an economic ‘need’ for a wo…
