Violence, inequality and resistance in South Asia
Environmental Fate of Antimony and Its Influence on Soil–Plant Systems
The increasing concentration of antimony (Sb) in the environment has raised significant concerns throughout the globe owing to its potential toxicity. It enters the ecosystem mainly through anthropogenic activities, including coal mining, industries, leaching, urbanization, and the weathering of the parent rocks. This literature review provides an in‐depth overview of the sources of Sb contamination, its speciation and bioavailability in the soil…
We Are Living in Survival Mode”
This article provides an understanding of the lived experiences of Syrian refugees and forcibly displaced Ukrainians living in Sault Ste. Marie, a small city in northern Ontario, using personal narratives. The comparative analysis reveals diverse but overlapping integration challenges, with the aim to expand academic and policy knowledge about refugee integration in small cities in northern Ontario. Findings highlight that both groups faced simil…
Advancements in Understanding Beryllium Contamination
Beryllium (Be), a lightweight metal with significant industrial applications, poses notable environmental and health risks due to its toxicity and persistence, and widespread use, particularly in the mechanical, aerospace, and electronics sectors. It is commonly alloyed with other heavy metals to enhance material properties. The primary environmental pathways for Be release include emissions from coal and fossil fuels combustion, as well as the i…
Global Perspectives on Lead Contamination and Health Risks in Surface Water, Rice Grains, and Soils
Lead (Pb), a pervasive and highly toxic metal, and poses significant environmental and health risks due to its extensive biogeochemical cycling, driven by anthropogenic activities. This review evaluates the health hazards allied with Pb contamination in surface water bodies, soils, and rice grains, based on a comprehensive analysis (2015–2024) of 118, 133, and 102 literature studies, respectively. The year‐wise assessment of Pb concentration in s…
Ethnomedicinal uses of wild edible Angiosperms in Thachi Valley, Western Himalayas
Background: Since the dawn of history, humans have depended on wild edible plants as a vital source of food and nutrition. In the present time, these plants have been neglected by the people, but rural people still rely on wild edible plants not only as food but also for their therapeutic properties. Methods: Fieldwork was carried out with local informants and data was collected through focus group discussions, questionnaires, and interviews. Inf…
Bioremediation of mercury contaminated soil and water
Mercury (Hg) pollution of soil and water environments is a major global threat to human health, agri‐food systems and ecosystems and industrial activities mainly coal combustion augmented their content in different environmental media. Bioremediation is a nature‐based solution involving microbial‐ and plant‐based (phytoremediation) technologies that clean‐up Hg contaminated sites. Here, we review Hg‐resistant bacteria and how latest insights in o…
Comprehensive review of nickel biogeochemistry, bioavailability, and health risks in the environment
Elevated nickel (Ni) content in soils and water cause a potential threat to food safety and human health. Owing to its numerous uses from common domestic items to industrial usage, it is vital to assess its bioavailability and speciation in the natural environment. In this review, the biogeochemical cycling of Ni in the natural environment and numerous aspects like dissolution, reducing‐oxidizing condition, pH, precipitation, and biological trans…

Testing the job demands-resources model for Indian correctional staff job satisfaction
Cruelty and Violence in the Global South
There is limited understanding of cruelty in critical security studies. While cruelty tends to be conceptualized within the context of large-scale, violent conflicts and situations, it is helpful to consider cruelty through the lens of everyday forms of violence and subjugation. Understanding cruelty and its complex entanglements with overlapping frameworks of necropolitics, structural violence, and necrogeopolitics, and drawing on research from …
Navigating Multiple Identities
The article argues that academics navigate and occupy various localities, spaces, and identities, which allows them to be self-reflexive in understanding the inherent challenges in diversifying the discipline. Using personal narratives as a methodological and theoretical tool, this article situates plural experiences and contexts of a woman of color, working in precarity in academia. The intersection of multiple identities reveals various sites o…
Assessment of menopausal symptoms in different transition phases using the Greene Climacteric Scale among rural women of North India
The climacteric symptoms were more prevalent among women who were perimenopausal followed by post-menopausal women and were the lowest in pre-menopausal women. Age, menopausal status, socio-economic status, and reproductive factors significantly influenced the severity of menopausal symptoms
Association of menopausal symptoms as assessed from Greene Climacteric scale with body mass index and osteoporosis among rural women of North India
< 0.001) symptoms was significantly lower than their counterparts with no symptoms. Binary logistic regression analysis confirmed that women with menopausal symptoms had a two-fold higher risk of developing osteoporosis than asymptomatic women. A positive and significant correlation of body mass index was noted with psychological, anxiety and vasomotor symptoms, whereas T-score had a significant association with all the menopausal symptoms.
Militias and the challenges of post-conflict peace
“Militias have proven to be a consistent and enduring challenge to achieving peace in war zones around the world. Whether armed by embattled governments in defence of their territory or fostered by external actors in the interests of greed or grievance, these groups occupy an uncertain and deeply controversial position in the changing landscape of conflict. Linked variously to atrocities against civilians or international criminal elements, part …
