Migrant entrepreneurship in official minority language contexts: A literature review
Purpose Numerous studies have investigated the role of language proficiency in the integration of migrants into their host countries; however, they have often overlooked the intricacies of language in cases in which the host country has multiple official languages. Therefore, this study aims to explore the impact of minor official languages on migrant entrepreneurship by examining the latest developments in the literature. Design/methodology/appr…

Evaluating Geospatial Data Adequacy for Integrated Risk Assessments: A Malaria Risk Use Case
International policy and humanitarian guidance emphasize the need for precise, subnational malaria risk assessments with cross-regional comparability. Spatially explicit indicator-based assessments can support humanitarian aid organizations in identifying and localizing vulnerable populations for scaling resources and prioritizing aid delivery. However, the reliability of these assessments is often uncertain due to data quality issues. This artic…
Evaluating the Representativeness of Socio-Demographic Variables over Time for Geo-Social Media Data
Geo-social media data are widely used as a data source to model populations and processes in a variety of contexts. However, if the data do not adequately represent the population they are drawn from, analysis results will be biased. Unaddressed, these biases may lead to false interpretations and conclusions. In this paper, we propose a generic methodology for investigating the representativeness of geo-social media data for population groups of …
Karl Leonhard Reinholds Begriff der Deduktion
K.L. Reinhold’s interpretation of deduction plays a seminal role in the development of German Idealism. However, as yet Reinhold’s concept of deduction has not been sufficiently explained. The goals of this paper are (i) to analyze Reinhold’s notion of deduction in his Neue Darstellung der Hauptmomente der Elementarphilosophie , (ii) to reconstruct his deduction of a priori forms of representation and (iii) to discuss his deduction critically. In…
A Methodological Objection to a Phenomenological Justification of the Ubiquity of Inner Awareness
In recent years, interest in pre-reflective self-consciousness (inner awareness) has increased significantly. One of the central points of inquiry is whether pre-reflective self-consciousness ubiquitously accompanies phenomenal consciousness. This paper explores a phenomenological justification for the thesis that pre-reflective self-consciousness ubiquitously accompanies phenomenal consciousness (ubiquity thesis). Allegedly, the ubiquity of pre-…
Modelling Under-Five Mortality through Multilevel Structured Additive Regression with Varying Coefficients for Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa
Despite improvements in global child health during the last three decades, under-five mortality rates remain significantly high in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. Both regions did not achieve the MDG target of reducing under-five mortality rates by two thirds by 2015. The underlying causes of under-five mortality differ significantly between countries and between regions, which highlights the need to expand our understanding of the determinants of c…
Modelling children's anthropometric status using Bayesian distributional regression merging socio-economic and remote sensed data from South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa
A history of insufficient nutritional intake is reflected by low anthropometric measures and can lead to growth failures, limited mental development, poor health outcomes and a higher risk of dying. Children below five years are among those most vulnerable and, while improvements in the share of children affected by insufficient nutritional intake has been observed, both sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia have a disproportionately high share of gr…
Nonconceptual Self-Awareness and the Constitution of Referential Self-Consciousness: Objections to Tomis Kapitan
This essay argues that persons not only have nonconceptual bodily self-awareness and nonconceptual mental anonymous self-awareness but also, at least if they produce the expression ‘I’, nonconceptual mental egological self-awareness. It contains information of ‘I’ being produced by oneself. It is argued that this can be seen if we examine the constitution of referential self-consciousness, i.e. the consciousness of being the referent of ‘I’ onese…
The drama of corporate social responsibility communication
Purpose This paper aims to investigate a company’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) communications in a business network with regard to the flow of critical events related to CSR. Design/methodology/approach The paper focuses on the drama that unfolded at a Nordic-based multinational corporation, Stora Enso, after a critical event related to CSR and the specific signs and codes applied by the company to justify its actions. To achieve the ai…

Regional organisations in the Unga: Who is most active and why
State and regional actors in complex governance systems: Exploring dynamics of international negotiations
Over the last decades, the number of international organizations (IOs) and regional groups (RGs) increased tremendously, and states are now simultaneously members of several RGs and IOs. This article inquiries how states act in settings of complexly nested and overlapping institutions on the regional and international levels. How frequently do states voice regional positions in international negotiations and why are some more active in this respe…
Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis – Towards a new paradigm
The amount of scientific literature on (Geographic) Object-based Image Analysis – GEOBIA has been and still is sharply increasing. These approaches to analysing imagery have antecedents in earlier research on image segmentation and use GIS-like spatial analysis within classification and feature extraction approaches. This article investigates these development and its implications and asks whether or not this is a new paradigm in remote sensing a…
Geons – domain-specific regionalization of space
The design of methods and tools to build adequate representations of complex geographical phenomena in a way that spatial patterns are emphasized is one of the core objectives of GIScience. In this paper, we build on the concept of geons as a strategy to represent and analyze latent spatial phenomena across different geographical scales (local, national, regional) incorporating domain-specific expert knowledge. Focusing on two types, we illustrat…
Subjektivität und Autonomie: Praktische Selbstverhältnisse in der klassischen deutschen Philosophie
Classical Germany philosophy represents one of the most important and influential discursive formations in human thought. The essays in Subjectivity and Autonomy combine basic introductory material with systematic analysis of key concepts and questions. In addition to discussing central thinkers such as Kant, Fichte, and Hegel, the volume addresses the relevance of topics in classical German philosophy for current debates.

Non-parametric regression with BayesX: A flexible estimation of trends in human physical stature in 19th century America
Jonh Bradmore and His Book Philomena
BL MS Harley 1736 fols. 2–167 has been accepted by scholars as an original vernacular treatise on surgery, and its authorship has been attributed to Thomas Morstede, chief surgeon on the Agincourt campaign of 1415. This paper shows that there is a Latin source for the manuscript, and that this source can be identified as the work of John Bradmore, a London surgeon of the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries. Details of Bradmore's life ar…
