Social Justice in the linguistics classroom
In the current political and social climate, diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice initiatives in higher education face pushback and at times abolition. Educators within the field of linguistics face a paradox: vulnerability of the classroom versus the fundamental duty to promote linguistic and social justice. This organized session aimed to support community and coalition building, helping linguists build capacity to engage in the work of li…
Vulnerabilität und Agency im Kontext von Fluchtmigration – Einführung in ein komplexes Themenfeld
In diesem Themenheft steht das Verhältnis von Vulnerabilität und Agency im Kontext von Fluchtmigration im Zentrum. In der Einleitung skizzieren wir zum einen die hier eingenommene spezifische praxeologische und anwendungsorientierte Perspektive und verorten die zentralen Begriffe – Vulnerabilität und Agency – theoretisch-konzeptionell im Forschungsfeld. Zum anderen geben wir einen Überblick über die Beiträge des Heftes. Indem das Themenheft praxe…
Un-Rückkehrbarkeit
Der Beitrag führt das Konzept der Un-Rückkehrbarkeit in die flucht- und migrationsbezogene Forschung ein. Auf Grundlage ethnografischer Daten zu langjährig geduldeten Personen in Deutschland wird untersucht, wie Menschen unter institutioneller Immobilität und begrenzter Handlungsfähigkeit ihr Leben gestalten. Un-Rückkehrbarkeit wird als analytischer Zugang entwickelt, der subjektive, strukturelle und emotionale Dimensionen des Bleibens verbindet.…
Navigating the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Disconnect
Europe remains the top destination for U.S. university students seeking a global academic experience with over 64% choosing European programs. Despite surface-level cultural similarities, U.S. students often face challenges navigating the deeper sociocultural dynamics and differing approaches to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within European societies. This manuscript explores the "DEI disconnect" between U.S. students and European educat…

Using an anti-racist, equity-minded lens in assessment of teaching and learning
Recent materials from the U.S. Council on Social Work Education note that regardless of some successes, racial equity in higher education has not significantly progressed. Recent scholarship has noted racial discrimination in social work academia. However, we were not able to find any publications about racial disproportionality in social work education grading or educational attainment. In this article, we document an intentional anti-racist, eq…
Attention to disability in child protection policies across four liberal welfare regimes

Vowel Pronunciation as an Ethnic Marker
This paper analyzes word list recordings from 37 Pacific Islander (PI) and 40 European American (EA) teens from two Salt Lake County (SLCo) high schools to address three questions: (1) Do the teens in the study participate in the linguistic practices previously described for Utah and for the American West? (2) Do EAs and PIs pattern together, or is there a distinctive PI pattern in SLCo? (3) How does the ethnic composition of the school context a…

Cut from the same cloth
Moves - Spaces - Places
In the complex and multi-layered process of migration and identity-building, classical migration theories and approaches of transnationalism seem no longer able to grasp how belonging and home are to be found in movement. This ethnography leads the reader into the lives of five Jamaican women in Montreal; their daily practices and experiences, their spaces of communion, their memories and projections for the future. Lisa Johnson sheds light on th…
Locating the Intersections of Disability, Race and Ethnicity in Adoption Rates among Foster Children Introduction
The promotion of speedy, permanent adoption outcomes for children in foster care whose parental rights have been terminated is a central child welfare policy goal. However, while both children of color and children with disabilities are at greater risk for child welfare involvement, little is known about influence of these intersecting identities on adoption rates. This cross-sectional national study draws on the Adoption and Foster Care Analysis…
Siguiendo los rastros de los depósitos rituales
Las excavaciones en las tierras bajas del este de México, Guatemala y Belice han revelado patrones generalizados en la práctica ritual, incluyendo patrones en los tipos de materiales usados en ofrendas rituales y entierros humanos colocados dentro de los pisos y plazas de templos públicos y casas privadas. Sin embargo, los rastros materiales de eventos ritualizados pasados parecen ser marcadamente diferentes en las Tierras Bajas occidentales, par…
On the Suffering of Animals in Nature
Human beings have a moral duty to intervene to prevent or to mitigate the suffering of free-living animals. This article focuses on that duty, particularly as it exists when an animal asks for help and when animals who need help are within the zone of a person’s ability and willingness to help. As such, people should be free to help if they choose to do so, unencumbered by legal restrictions that outlaw such conduct. However, federal and state la…
The Religion of Ethical Veganism
A survey was administered during fall 2013 to 163 self-identified adult ethical vegans and/or ethical vegetarians in the United States to determine whether the respondents+ beliefs meet the definition of religion according to U.S. federal law. The data demonstrate that a majority of the surveyed group possesses beliefs concordant with the definition of "religion" according to federal statutes, federal judicial tests, and regulatory law. Since rel…
Renegotiating dissonant heritage
Jan Pieterszoon Coen (1587–1629) is a controversial figure in Dutch history. As the governor general of the Dutch United East India Company (Vereenigde Oostindische Compagnie), he founded the basis for the Dutch colonial enterprise in south-east Asia. In the late nineteenth century, Coen was seen as a national hero and his statue erected on the central square of his home town. Since then, appreciation of Coen has changed considerably. In 2011, a …
Write Plainly, Help Animals- De Fontenay’s Without Offending Humans
Academic philosophers who purport to help animals should write plainly. Engaging in infighting, bristling at others’ arguments, and writing in obscure and impenetrable language does little to actually help animals, and it quite possibly distracts those who might wish to help animals. This review of Elisabeth De Fontenay’s Without Offending Humans: A Critique of Animal Rights discusses these common problems in academic works
The President's Emergency Plan for Aids Relief (Pepfar)
The President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) is the most recent international social program instituted by the U.S. Government to combat HIV/AIDS. Since its inception in 2003, this foreign policy initiative has dedicated $63 billion for HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment in foreign countries. Despite PEPFAR's many accomplishments, it continues to promote controversial prevention strategies. This paper analyzes these prevention strategie…

Fibromyalgia
OBJECTIVE: Fibromyalgia (FMS) is characterized by chronic pain, high psychiatric comorbidity, and the absence of observable pathology. Our objective was to examine positive and negative affective indices, both at the trait and contextual levels, in FMS compared with a chronic pain control group, osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS: The sample consisted of 126 female FMS (87) and OA (39) patients from the community. Participants answered a self-report qu…
Clean Sites and Toxic Burdens
In their research, policy analysts and historians have had an understandable attachment to ‘successful” state and federal environmental programs, initiatives that spawn long-term imitation or significantly advance the goals or innovative methodologies of specific policymakers. Indeed, by the very nature of their success, they command the attention of scholars and lawmakers. However, as this study will show, inefficient, costly, or controversial p…
Coping Effectiveness Training for Men Living With HIV
OBJECTIVE: This randomized clinical trial was designed to compare the effects of a theory-based coping effectiveness training (CET) intervention with an active informational control (HIV-Info) condition and a waiting-list control (WLC) condition on psychological distress and positive mood in HIV-seropositive gay men. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The authors recruited 149 self-identified gay or bisexual men who were 21 to 60 years of age, reported depre…
