Barriers and facilitators to integrated primary care from the perspective of people with chronic conditions and multiple care needs: A scoping review
BACKGROUND: Integrated care attempts to address multiple care needs, but barriers to implementation remain. The service user perspective can guide policy and practice to advance implementation. OBJECTIVE: To map barriers and facilitators to integrated primary care from the perspective of people with chronic conditions and multiple care needs. METHODS: A scoping review was conducted by searching PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL, and grey lit…
Life is peaceful here’: Nigerian refugees in Limassol between colonial afterlives and city-making
Divided by ethnic conflict, plagued by an economic crisis, and enforcing restrictive bordering practices at the edge of Europe, the Republic of Cyprus hardly constitutes an obvious choice for Nigerians fleeing conditions of state breakdown, crisis, and social immobility. The perceived ‘unusualness’ of this migration has made Nigerian and other African refugees particularly vulnerable to human rights abuses, violent nativist discourse, and raciali…
For Israel and Communism’? Making Sense of Germany’s Antideutsche
The German Left’s silence on Palestine is colloquially attributed to either German guilt, the role of the so-called ‘Antideutsch’ current, or both. While acknowledging these factors, this contribution seeks to situate the Antideutsch phenomenon within a historical-materialist framework. Specifically, it examines the evolution of the postwar German Left’s perceptions of antisemitism, against the backdrop of its reconstitution following World War i…
Between Solidarity and De-solidarisation: Covid-19 as a Crisis of Mobility
We are here to stay” vs. “Europe’s best hotel”: Hamburg and Athens as Geographies of Solidarity
Using a theoretical framework conceptualising mobility regimes, solidarity, as well as scales and “sanctuary/solidarity cities”, this article examines notions of locally scaled solidarity by looking at Hamburg and Athens. We undertake comparisons on three dimensions. First, between the historical and institutional context of migration in Germany and Greece. Second, between urban movements in Hamburg and Athens. Finally, between the balance sheet …
Cold European civilisation hasn’t arrived here yet’ – negotiations within the Cypriot regime of (im)mobility
This article explores the mobility/labour nexus in the Republic of Cyprus, a borderland region between Europe and the Middle East and a ‘state of exception’ since its creation. Contrary to perceptions of Cypriot migration policies as rogue aberrations from an idealised European norm, the article contends that zones of legal ambiguity display their own filtering logic towards migrant labour, offering different kinds of constraints and opportunitie…

Gramscian perspectives on citizenship: Snapshots from the experience of regional migrants in the Republic of Cyprus
This article conceptualises citizenship in Gramscian terms, as a contested element of struggles for hegemony within civil society. Based on ethnographic snapshots from Cyprus, it is shown how the agency of migrants from the nearby region not only subverts a restrictive border regime, but also challenges a hegemonic paradigm of citizenship shaped by colonialism, ethnic conflict, as well as crisis and austerity. At the same time, struggles for lega…
Deciphering Germany's Pro-Israel Consensus
Germany's complex relationship to the issue of Palestine is often explained in terms of the country's past and its consequent affinity for Israel as the perceived homeland of Holocaust survivors. German policy decisions in the last two decades, including the sale of nuclear-capable submarines to Israel, seem to confirm this view. That notwithstanding, argues this article, Germany's Middle East policy and popular German perceptions of the conflict…

Research advances on climate-induced slope instability in glacier and permafrost high-mountain environments
High-mountain areas with glacier and permafrost occurrence are temperature sensitive environments. Climatic changes are, thus, likely to have an effect on slope stability. Several recent events have shown that rock and ice avalanches and related hazards can have severe consequences. For hazard analysis, the processes of slope failure and flow dynamics should therefore be better understood. In this article, recent advances in this field are presen…
The Erlangen AMS Facility and its Applications in 14 C Sediment and Bone Dating
We report here on the radiocarbon dating of sediment samples from Bavaria using the Erlangen accelerator mass spectrometry facility. The absolute time calibration of different sediment profiles, together with pollen analyses, should establish a better chronology of climate and vegetation during Holocene in Bavaria. For an enhanced reliability of sediment dating, we measured different fractions such as bulk sediments, pollen grains, macrofossils a…
Judgments about personal identity in childhood and adolescence
Judgments concerning personal identity were studied in children and adolescents. Each subject was asked to imagine entering a hypothetical machine which simultaneously produced two persons, with each person receiving one of four sets of the subject's characteristics: physical, active, social, or psychological. Subjects were asked to judge which of the resulting persons was most nearly identical with the self. Results from the first study with mid…
