Using the responses from a Smoke Sense citizen science project, we examined perspectives on the issue of wildfire smoke as a health risk in relation to an individual’s preparedness to adopt recommended health behaviors. The Smoke Sense smartphone application provides wildfire-related health risk resources and…
Single Women in Nepal
This paper focuses on familial assistance to those high caste Nepalese women who are either widowed or estranged from their husbands. Some twenty percent of high caste women may be single at any given point in time; because of discrimination in rules of inheritance, educational access and access to marketable skills, the likelihood of their full self-sufficiency, through property or work, is relatively small. Assistance from family is, therefore,…

Viewed as a pivotal force in historic and contemporary movements of the extreme right, it is widely believed to exercise a constant ‘threat’ potential, thus guaranteeing its protection throughout the post‐war period — above all in the Italian context where small economic entrepreneurs persist in substantia…
The Italian state and small business
Despite the certainty with which our theories of industrial society chorused the demise of the small-scale economy, Italy'ssmall producers have not merely refused to disappear but have continued to nourish, multiply and predominate in the postwar economy. Most explanations for this phenomenon have centred oneconomic factors-whether the old linear notions of delayed development and backwardness (Fuà 1976; Sereni 1966), or the more fashionable cent…
