“My Body is a Pebble to Them…”
A flâneur in Charlestown
Contemporary postcolonial Caribbean literature, encompassing the late twentieth century, is indelibly marked by the vicissitudes of displacement, which precipitate an acute sense of dislocation, and existential estrangement. This pervasive malaise engenders a profound anxiety surrounding identity and cultural affinity, compelling writers to interrogate the elusive phenomenology of belonging amid diasporic fragmentation. Consequently, the motif of…

Competing meanings of flood in the chars of Assam, India
In the chars or the river islands of Assam, India, flood has more than one meaning. They are products of the two competing temporal frameworks existing in the regions. One of them is a relational framework, where flood is an everyday process. It is built around the social practices central to char inhabitants, who rely on the three interrelated seasonal river processes of inundation, erosion, and accretion. The second is an episodic framework, wh…
‘I Was Going to Be Marginalised’
This article examines the depiction of failed masculinity in Kiran Nagarkar's Cuckold (1997). Within conventional gender standards, men are often regarded as privileged because hegemonic masculine ideals are inscribed upon them. Yet, despite holding powerful positions, such as kingship, the struggles of men who fail to fulfil socially appointed masculine roles have long remained unnoticed. The intricate interplay of historical, social, and politi…
Does inter-municipal cooperation reduce the intensity of tax competition? Evidence on inter-local industrial parks in Germany
We ask whether inter-municipal cooperation serve as a platform by which municipalities coordinate tax policies and reduce the intensity of tax competition. Specifically, we focus on inter-municipal cooperation in form of inter-local industrial parks. We apply the case study-oriented synthetic control method (SCM) to analyze the causal impact of 12 inter-local industrial parks on municipal tax-setting behavior using data on municipalities from Wes…
Does children’s independent mobility matter? Insights into escorting practices in a developing country
Understanding children’s mobility behaviour and parents escorting practices are important to developing a children-friendly society. But only a few studies concerning children’s mobility behaviour have focused on developing countries. In this study, we attempted to develop an econometric model to understand escorting practices in a developing country. A multinomial logit (MNL) model is developed using travel diary data of 398 elementary school-go…
Perceptible sentiment analysis of students' WhatsApp group chats in valence, arousal, and dominance space
Tropical Asian mega‐delta ponds
This paper uses multimedia to showcase the narratives and lived experiences of those who live and work in tropical Asian mega‐deltas, and as such is the first journal article of its kind in the field of Regional Geography. Using videos, photography and audio this paper describes the characteristics of ponds and their place in the intrinsically connected human‐environmental fabric of these delta regions. The aim is to bring to life descriptive inv…
Pollution and its consequences at Ganga Sagar mass bathing in India
Sunlight Assisted Photocatalytic Degradation of Ciprofloxacin in Water Using Fe Doped ZnO Nanoparticles for Potential Public Health Applications
Antibiotic residues in the aquatic environment have the potential to induce resistance in environmental bacteria, which ultimately might get transferred to pathogens making treatment of diseases difficult and poses a serious threat to public health. If antibiotic residues in the environment could be eliminated or reduced, it could contribute to minimizing antibiotic resistance. Towards this objective, water containing ciprofloxacin was treated by…
Time series analysis of demographic and temporal trends of tuberculosis in Singapore
The study found that despite an increasing size of non-resident population, TB risk among non-residents was decreasing at a rate of about 3% per year. There was an apparent seasonality in the TB reporting
