Review of “Koreatown, NYC
Rising powers and global cooperation
There is a pressing need for global cooperation across a wide range of issues, and norms and practices to promote cooperation have proliferated. Yet our understanding of the effects of these cooperative infrastructures remains limited. We ask two questions: how have norms promoting cooperation shaped global standard-setting practices, and what are their implications for existing global power inequities? Existing research suggests that standard-se…
Tracking the burden, distribution, and impact of Post-Covid conditions in diverse populations for children, adolescents, and adults (Track PCC)
These data can help identify which groups are most affected by PCC, and what health differences among demographic groups exist, as well as indicate potential barriers to care. These additional levels of granularity can inform public health action and help direct needed clinical care for patients
Risk factors associated with under-five stunting, wasting, and underweight in four provinces of the Democratic Republic of Congo
Prevalence of undernutrition in DRC is high. This study has identified certain modifiable risk factors associated with stunting, wasting and underweight. To reduce the burden of undernutrition in DRC, authorities should target factors at individual and community levels by improving women's education, child feeding practices and promoting agriculture
Militant Mothers
On 24 December 1949, two thousand women marched on the prison at Grand Bassam in protest of the detention of militants of the Parti Démocratique de Côte d'Ivoire (PDCI). Considered the first mass demonstration by West African women against French colonial rule, the march on Grand Bassam was a watershed moment in the Ivoirian anticolonial movement. Though party officials have framed women's activism as a political ‘awakening’, women's militancy wa…
Histories of Independence in Côte d’Ivoire

Undocumented Acts
The 1980 Refugee Act endeavoured to provide effective settlement for refugees entering the United States. But most South American refugees escaping from dictatorships and civil wars were denied political asylum. This article explores the representation of migration and border crossing in Latina (1980 Sánchez-Scott, Milcha, with Jeremy Blahnik. 1980. “Latina.” In Necessary Theatre Six Plays about the Chicano Experience, edited by Jorge Huerta, 85–…
The Ecologies of Protest in the Theatre of Aztlán
This essay looks at the work of the contemporary Mexican-American woman playwright, Cherríe Moraga. It focuses on two of her plays which were produced during the mid-1990s entitled Heroes and Saints and Watsonville: Some Place Not Here, although other plays from this period, such as Circle in the Dirt: El Pueblo de East Palo Alto, also appear in the study. The plays are based on Moraga’s responses to certain environmental and historical events wh…
On Being Influenced While Trying to Persuade
In two studies, a persuader attempted to influence multiple targets (confederates) to take his or her position on an important social issue. As the persuader advocated his or her position, targets initially provided positive (negative) feedback that placed the persuader in the majority (minority). Subsequent feedback on the persuader’s continuing advocacy either kept initially established status stable or reversed it (majority ↔ minority). Initia…
Of Practicalities and Perspective
Establishing fair procedures to regulate intragroup disagreements should engender cooperation while inhibiting conflict . Yet what is a “fair” procedure might vary for members of different factions . To understand perceptions of fairness in group decision making , the present research developed and utilized the Fair Group Procedures Scale (FGPS). Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses revealed a four‐factor structure along two dimensions: t…

Chronic Exposure to Everyday Discrimination and Coronary Artery Calcification in African-American Women
Chronic exposure to discrimination may be an important risk factor for early coronary calcification in African-American women. This association appears to be driven by exposure to discrimination from multiple sources, rather than exposure to racial/ethnic discrimination alone
