Rethinking the geography of energy transitions: Low carbon energy pathways through energyshed design
Design and meaning of the genuine progress indicator: A statistical analysis of the U.S. fifty-state model
A critically modern ecological economics for the Anthropocene
Ecological economics recognizes economic activity as a biophysical process mediated by social systems and ultimately subject to the constraints of a finite earth system. The Anthropocene discourse appears as validation of the central concerns of ecological economics yet throws into relief its limits as a normative transdiscipline oriented toward social transformation. We review ecological economics in light of two overarching challenges: first, n…

Housing the homeless
"Homelessness has become a lasting issue of vital social concern. As the number of the homeless has grown, the complexity of the issue has become increasingly clear to researchers and private and public service providers. The plight of the homeless raises many ethical, anthropological, political, sociological, and public health questions. The most serious and perplexing of these questions is what steps private, charitable, and public organization…

Effectiveness of a sports-based HIV prevention intervention in the Dominican Republic: A quasi-experimental study
Previous observational and quasi-experimental studies in sub-Saharan Africa have suggested the effectiveness of youth-targeted HIV prevention interventions using sport as an educational tool. No studies have yet assessed the effect of similar programs in the Caribbean. A quasi-experimental trial was conducted to assess the effectiveness of a sports-based intervention in six migrant settlements in the Puerto Plata Province of the Dominican Republi…

Recasting Postcolonialism: Women Writing Between Worlds
Reviewed by: Recasting Postcolonialism: Women Writing Between Worlds John Erickson Donadey, Anne . Recasting Postcolonialism: Women Writing Between Worlds. Portsmouth, NH: Heinemann, 2001. Pp. 178. In Recasting Postcolonialism: Women Writing Between Worlds, Anne Donadey sets out to shift the emphasis of most postcolonial criticism from its preoccupation with male, largely Anglophone writing to feminist writing in French in a postcolonial Algerian…
The Risks and Benefits of Genetically Modified Crops: A Multidisciplinary Perspective
Peterson, G. D., S. Cunningham, L. Deutsch, J. Erickson, A. Quinlan, E. Ráez-Luna, R. Tinch, M. Troell, P. Woodbury and S. Zens 2000. The Risks and Benefits of Genetically Modified Crops: A Multidisciplinary Perspective. Conservation Ecology 4(1):13. https://doi.org/10.5751/ES-00195-040113
Resource Use, Institutions, and Sustainability: A Tale of Two Pacific Island Cultures
This paper examines two Pacific Island cultures, Easter Island and Tikopia, and the relationship between natural resource systems, human-made capital, population growth, and institutional change. Easter Island followed a preindustrial society pattern of overshoot-and collapse. However, Tikopia evolved cultural practices leading to zero-population growth and sustainable resource use. Using a modified Lotka- Volterra, predator-prey model, we find (…
Prevention of Neural-Tube Defects with Folic Acid in China
BACKGROUND AND METHODS: Periconceptional administration of folic acid can reduce a woman's risk of having a fetus or infant with a neural-tube defect. As part of a public health campaign conducted from 1993 to 1995 in an area of China with high rates of neural-tube defects (the northern region) and one with low rates (the southern region), we evaluated the outcomes of pregnancy in women who were asked to take a pill containing 400 microg of folic…
Non-renewability in forest rotations: Implications for economic and ecosystem sustainability
L'Œuvre romanesque de Calixthe Beyala: Le Renouveau de l'Ecriture feminine en Afrique francophone sub-saharienne (review)
L'Esprit Créateur credited only with the appearance of chauvinism (de Puymà ̈ge). By contrast, in the years from 1870 to 1914, the invention of tradition appears to have been a major industry, fueled by textbooks (Nora on "Lavisse, the Nation's Teacher," Jacques and Mona Ozouf on Le Tour de France par deux enfants, and Jean-Yves GuÃ-omar, "Vidal de la Blache's Geography of France") and the ingenuity of commercial entrepreneurs (Georges Vigarello,…
Wilhelm von Humboldt, Edward Sapir, and the constructivist framework
Striking similarities between Edward Sapir’s views on language and those of Wilhelm von Humboldt have long been apparent. Because of the avoidance of documentation in his writings, however, it has proved to be impossible to demonstrate the extent of Sapir’s direct familiarity with the works of Humboldt and his commitment to a Humboldtian language philosophy. Rather than pursuing the question of how Sapir might have been influenced by Humboldt, th…
Photovoltaic technology: Markets, economics, and rural development
Photovoltaic (PV) electricity has been widely supported as a remote energy source for developing countries. In response, the production and shipment of PV modules in developed nations has steadily increased through the past decade, often marketed through the auspices of technology transfer and financed by international development aid. This paper investigates the motives, economics, and development implications of PVs in rural electrification, dr…

First-trimester anesthesia exposure and the risk of central nervous system defects: A population-based case-control study
OBJECTIVES. Although up to 2% of women undergo surgery during pregnancy, teratogenic effects of general anesthesia have not been adequately studied. Recently, an association between first-trimester operations and central nervous system defects has been described. This issue was explored in a population-based case-control study. METHODS. Case patients included live-born and stillborn infants with central nervous system defects born to residents of…

Racial Succession and Residential Mobility in Dallas-Fort Worth and San Antonio
This paper examines the differences in residential succession patterns for black, Hispanic, and Anglo-American households in the Dallas-Forth Worth and San Antonio metropolitan areas. Demographic variables such as household income, household size, and age of household head are compared to improve understanding of housing mobility among groups. In addition, relevant variables are analyzed through application of multivariate logistic regressions. I…
Writing Double: Politics and The African Narrative of French Expression
This essay studies two African narratives of French expression (Le Temps de Tamango of Boubacar Diop and L'Enfant de sable of Tahar ben Jelloun) to see how they create a discourse of difference that challenges and deconstructs the conventions of the discursive system of French, its signifying practices, and its ideological underpinnings. The tactics of these narratives, which mark them as post-colonial in a strict sense (as opposed to neo-colonia…
Cheikh Hamidou Kane's L'Aventure Ambigue
An anthropometric device for automatic data selection and data recording
A new concept in anthropometry, that of automatic electronic data selection , is presented and a labor‐saving device using this concept is described. It was constructed for applications with dental models and the detailed descriptions of the system algorithms reflect that. It should be emphasized, however, that the concept is much more general than is the device described and given a few hardware modifications, the procedure may be applied to any…

Maternal factors in dizygotic twinning: Evidence from interracial crosses
In the USA, Blacks have been shown to have a higher incidence of DZ twinning than Whites. We studied maternal and paternal race determinants of the rates of like-sex and unlike-sex twinning using US live-birth certificate data for 1973-78. After adjustment was made for father's race, Black mothers had a higher rate of unlike-sex twinning than White mothers (odds ratio, OR = 1.74, P less than 10(-8]. This maternal race effect persisted after furth…

"Kateb Yacine's "Nedjma: A Dialogue of Difference
Nedjma, that unspecified but authoritative-sounding entity signing itself alerts us to fact that novel we are about to read, although conceived and written in French ... remains a work profoundly Arab. The Editors tell us that we cannot validly judge it if we separate it from tradition to which it belongs. To recuperate this work, they go on to say, Western readers may be tempted to invoke name of Faulkner. But, even if the rhythm and constructio…
