Exploring the sugar-sweetened beverage tax (SSBT) pass-through rate in the Irish hospitality sector
The effective functioning of the SSBT is premised on persistent price differences between soft drink prices based on sugar content. However, this is barely evident in the hospitality sector in Ireland. A number of recommendations are suggested, including both increasing the SSBT, and increasing it annually in line with inflation
Multi-Course and Faculty-Student Collaboration
In this paper, we reflect on the development, integration, and implementation of a course-based, primary data collection fieldwork project for undergraduate anthropology students at the University of Guelph. Integrated across three courses taught between January-April 2022, we developed this project to provide students with the opportunity to build research skills and to broaden their understandings of how anthropological methods can be mobilized…
Conscripting communalism
In this article I explore changing state-citizen relationships in Mauritius. To do so, I outline and provide analysis of the system through which this Indian Ocean island has historically managed its diversity - a process that I call conscripting communalism. Conscripting communalism was formulated at independence in a context of behavioural predictions for the future that the internet era has challenged in powerful ways. To illustrate my argumen…
Expanding Available Futures
This article explores the place of ideology and what I call analytic allegiances in the nascent higher education domain in Angola. Based on ethnographic research, it considers the post-War emergence of the sector and its implications for global higher education. Focusing primarily on two institutions, one state, one private, it probes how contesting cold war ideologies continue to manifest through the pedagogic, curricula, and campus-based decisi…
The fullness of air
This article considers the social, political and productive engagements with air as a foundational – but often invisible – consideration in scholarship. Drawing on ethnographic research in Angola, it develops Arundhati Roy's notion of “portals” as entry points into the reflection on and theorization of air. The paper argues that an “sanitized sensorium” of late globalized capitalism has shaped ethnographic work over the last two centuries, and in…

Introduction
Intersectional Religious Agency
This paper explores the lives of 12 Mauritian Muslim women of three generations, and the ways in which they negotiate agency in what is at once a multicultural, pluralistic island nation and also a space in which religious boundaries are socially and institutionally maintained. Using the concept of intersectional religious agency, we argue that the experiences of the Muslim women from our sample are best understood in terms of their daily, creati…

Incapsulating hands
Drawing on research with a small group of young women and men in Maratane Refugee Camp, Mozambique, this paper argues that youth envisage themselves as incapsulated in the camp’s physical and ideological boundaries. It shows that the United Nations’ (UN) mandate of finding durable solutions to international problems is difficult to achieve when young people envisage themselves as reliant or dependent on the UN. It argues that greater attention ne…
A guide to the literature on aggressive behavior
Articles relating t o the general problem area of aggression are scattered throughout the whole range of specialized journals in fields from "A for anatomy" t o "Z for Zoology." It is virtually impossible for a single individual to find all the articles which may bear on his particular interest. Information overload is, of course, a problem. However, an even greater problem is matching the interesting article with the interested reader. Aggressiv…
