Breaking Bad or Making Amends? The Dynamics of Internal Conflict After Democratisation
This paper examines the impact of democratisation on internal conflict, with a focus on the timing of effects and the type of conflict involved. Using a local projection‐based difference‐in‐differences approach and a panel of 160 countries from 1919 to 2021, we distinguish between minor (e.g., protests and strikes) and major (e.g., revolutions and assassinations) conflict events through factor analysis. We find that democratisation leads to a sub…
Assessment of water handling practices in households and related health impacts: A case study in Deyniile District, Mogadishu, Somalia
Access to safe drinking water and adequate sanitation is essential for maintaining public health. This study investigates water collection, treatment practices, perceptions of water safety, and their health impacts within a community. Understanding these aspects is crucial for developing interventions to enhance water safety and health outcomes. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 360 households in the community and the study subjects we…

Motivated ignorance and social identity threat: The case of the Flat Earth
Belief in a conspiracy theory may, for some, provide a social identity. Because of the nature of many conspiracy theories, social identities associated with such beliefs may be subject to varied and considerable threats. Whilst various mechanisms for dealing with social identity threat have received widespread attention, this paper introduces an as yet unexplored strategy – that of ‘motivated ignorance' – as a further mechanism for social identit…

"A Very Serious and Perplexing Epidemic of Grippe" The Influenza of 1918 at the Haskell Institute
In the spring of 1918, students at the Haskell Institute, a federal Indian boarding school in Lawrence, Kansas, began falling victim to a mysterious illness. Although disease outbreaks were common at the overcrowded and underfunded Indian school, this year was different: within a few months, more than a third of the student body was hospitalized, and at least seventeen students died. The students suffered from a virulent new strain of influenza, …
Do sanctions lead to a decline in civil liberties
Parents’ Racial Beliefs and Ethnic–Racial Socialization in African American Families
We investigated relations among African American parents' reports of ethnic–racial socialization received during their own childhood, their racial attitudes (i.e., perceptions of U.S. racial climate and valuing of intergroup contact), and their 12th-grade children's reports of parents' use of racial pride socialization and preparation for bias. Parents' (N = 193) reports of received racial pride and preparation for bias socialization were related…
Do democracies have higher current account deficits
Self-Containment: Achieving Peace in Anarchic Settings
In anarchic settings, potential rivals can be dragged into arms races degenerating in open wars out of mutual suspicion. We propose a novel commitment device for contestants to avoid both arming and fighting. We assume that the military decides the armament levels of a country, while the civilian decides whether to attack a rival country. When these decision-making bodies perfectly communicate, the decision makers are unable to credibly communica…

Investigating the influence of African American and African Caribbean race on primary care doctors' decision making about depression
This paper explores differences in how primary care doctors process the clinical presentation of depression by African American and African-Caribbean patients compared with white patients in the US and the UK. The aim is to gain a better understanding of possible pathways by which racial disparities arise in depression care. One hundred and eight doctors described their thought processes after viewing video recorded simulated patients presenting …

Digital storytelling in Australia: Academic perspectives and reflections
This project explored the experiences of a small sample ( N = 6) of Australian academics with the use of digital storytelling as a pedagogical tool in higher education contexts. This article describes two case studies of academic uses of digital storytelling, along with interpretive analysis of six semi-structured interviews of academics working within media and communication studies and their reflections on the potential of digital storytelling …

Pension Funding in a Unionized Economy
This paper analyzes the effects of pension funding for a small open economy in which wages are subject to bargaining. Using an overlapping‐generations framework, we show that a reform away from a Pay‐As‐You‐Go towards a funded pension system will be Pareto improving only if the reform results in a reduction in the steady‐state unemployment rate. However, the reduction in the unemployment rate is by no means warranted: although for pension systems…

Heroes or Sibyls? Gender and engineering ethics
Interest in gender as an analytical category in the study of engineering has grown rapidly through continuing concerns about the low numbers of women in the profession. What would a gender-informed engineering ethics look like? In exploring this question, my aim is to think about how these concerns translate into engineering ethics and thereby to demonstrate that certain constructs may not serve men and women equally well. Hence, exploring such t…

Frequencies of protan and deutan alleles in some Israeli communities and a note on the selection‐relaxation hypothesis
Anomaloscopic diagnoses of red‐green vision defects are reported and compared to the Ishihara tests for six Israeli populations. The highest frequencies of defects, about 10%, were found in an Arab sample and among Ashkenazi Jews; the lowest — about 4% — among Yemenite Jews. Heterogeneity was also found regarding the relative frequencies of the different alleles; these differences are due primarily to alleles causing milder defects (particularly …

Anomals and anopes among Beduin of Southern Sinai
Anomaloscope tests on 212 Beduin of Sinai revealed one extreme protanomal, one simple deuteranomal, five protanopes and three deuteranopes. Thus mild defects in color vision are more rare than among Europeans, but severe colorblindness is just as frequent. It is difficult to fit these data to the hypothesis of relaxed selection

Agadir
Le mot, qui voque un mur , un rempart , et qui se retrouve dans des dialectes berbres trs diffrents les uns des autres, pourrait avoir, selon une hypothse de D. Cohen, une double tymologie, le phnicien (ou le punique) tant venu se superposer au terme berbre (L. Galand). En chleuh, le terme agadir, plur. igudar, dsigne un grenier collectif fortifi , institution que l'on retrouve ailleurs au Maghreb, mais sous d'autres vocables
