An Interview with Robert Quinn, Founding Executive Director of the Global Network Scholars at Risk
Introduction In the first part of the 20th century, as knowledge production became increasingly globalized, the two world wars and other international conflicts led to the creation of several institutions whose mission was to facilitate the mobility and integration of scholars persecuted and forced to flee their country. The Rockefeller Foundation and the Carnegie corporation, for instance, contributed to accommodate researchers from all over the…
Paroxetine Administration Affects Microbiota and Bile Acid Levels in Mice
Recent interest in the role of microbiota in health and disease has implicated gut microbiota dysbiosis in psychiatric disorders including major depressive disorder. Several antidepressant drugs that belong to the class of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors have been found to display antimicrobial activities. In fact, one of the first antidepressants discovered serendipitously in the 1950s, the monoamine-oxidase inhibitor Iproniazid, was a d…
Parental Involvement at the High School Level
Research has shown that parental involvement in the educational experiences of their children increases student achievement and strengthens school programs. The majority of this research, however, has concentrated on the primary and elementary levels, with little being known about parental involvement at the middle and high school levels. This study sought to add to the literature related to parental involvement at the high school level by examin…
Intellectual-Human Rights Defenders and Claims for Academic Freedom under Human Rights Law
Human rights claims arising out of attacks on intellectual-human rights defenders ( hrd s), if brought, typically do not include claims for violations of academic freedom. As a result the standards are underdeveloped relative to other human rights claims and the scope of academic freedom violations globally. This may be in part due to a negatively reinforcing lack of familiarity with issues of academic freedom and the available standards for prot…
Intellectual-HRDs and claims for academic freedom under human rights law
Many human rights defenders operate from within higher education institutions, research institutes, academies, societies and ‘think-tanks'. Many of these academics, researchers and lecturers would recognise themselves as human rights defenders because their academic work is consciously paired with rights-promoting education and advocacy. Others may not set out to be human rights defenders, but are cast in the role after being targeted for attack.…
Toward Analysis‐aided Mediation of Ocean Disposal Site‐selection Controversies
The field of judgment and decisionmaking research provides a theoretical framework and analytical tools that may be valuable in facilitating the resolution of environmental conflict through mediation. This paper provides an overview of the concepts, tools and findings of this research area, and illustrates how they might be used to build a lvbrieffl for aiding the mediation of a controversy regarding sludge disposal in the New York Bight
Computer Activities at Our AATSP Conventions
When the AATSP met in conjunction with several other language organizations this past November, there were numerous activities involving computers. For example, Joe Barrett, a high school teacher from Northfield, Massachusetts, conducted a valuable preconference workshop on several different days. Focusing on the use of GUTENBERG, JR., a word-processing program, he introduced participants to the fundamentals of programming and gave them hands-on …
