Mapping the supply of nature’s contributions to people on Mount Kilimanjaro
Mount Kilimanjaro, with its steep elevational gradient (770–5886 m a.s.l.) and pronounced land-use heterogeneity, supports high biodiversity and diverse nature’s contributions to people (NCP), but it is underrepresented in global spatial assessments. We address this gap by mapping NCP supply across 12 ecosystem types on the southern slopes identifying hotspots and coldspots and quantifying synergies and trade-offs among NCP categories. We use 25 …
Assessment of access and outcomes of kidney transplantation through the reforms of the Swiss organ allocation system
Introduction The Swiss allocation system for kidney transplantation has evolved over time to balance medical urgency, immunological compatibility, and waiting time. Since the introduction of the transplantation law in 2007, which imposed organ allocation on a national level, the algorithm has been optimized. Initially based on waiting time, HLA compatibility, and crossmatch performed by cell complement-dependent cytotoxicity techniques, the syste…
Perceptions of nature and its non‐material contributions to people at Mount Kilimanjaro
Non‐material Nature's Contributions to People (NCP), such as spirituality and aesthetic enjoyment, arise from interactions between people and entities of nature. However, their intangible and context‐specific nature makes them challenging to identify and quantify. We analysed Twitter posts (now known as ‘X’) from tourists across different habitats at Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania, using a mixed‐method approach. Based on the terms and expressions us…
Protective Factors for Vocal Health in Teachers
Voice disorders occur frequently in schoolteachers. The aim of the present cross-sectional study involving 124 German teachers was to investigate whether singing, voice training, and high self-efficacy are protective factors for vocal health. Furthermore, vocal self-concept was examined as a potential mediator explaining this relationship. Participants were assigned to the cases group if they had a clinically significant finding in voice examinat…

Emotional states elicited by wolf videos are diverse and explain general attitudes towards wolves
Emotions are short, intuitive mental processes that are important components of people's cognitions. They can influence attitudes (i.e. positive or negative evaluations of objects), and they are involved in decision‐making processes. In the context of human‐wildlife coexistence, mostly emotional dispositions have been studied (i.e. people's decontextualized, stable tendencies to react in a certain way towards wildlife), in contrast to emotional s…
The role of traditional ecological knowledge, given the transformation of pastoralism in Central and Eastern Mongolia
Mongolian nomadic herders traditionally pass on ecological knowledge intergenerationally, mainly within families. However, little is known about how current societal transformation processes may impact the application and transfer of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) amongst herders. Combining quantitative household survey data with qualitative interviews, we show that TEK is still widely applied amongst herders. Our data show that household…
Cross-cultural, transnational or interdisciplinary? Eric Wittkower's psychosomatic medicine and transcultural psychiatry in historical context
This article traces the career, scientific achievements, and emigration of the Berlin-born physician, psychoanalyst, and psychosomatic researcher Eric Wittkower. Trained in Berlin and practicing internal medicine, he became persecuted by the Nazi regime and, after fleeing Germany via Switzerland, continued his professional career in the United Kingdom, where he turned to psychosomatic medicine and worked in the service of the British Army during …
Cultural worldviews consistently explain bundles of ecosystem service prioritisation across rural Germany
Differences in ecosystem service (ES) priorities often lead to conflicts between stakeholders. While differences in priorities have often been described, the sociocultural factors, including differences in cultural worldview, which drive them have not. We propose that the cultural theory of risk and its ‘grid‐group’ typology, which classifies people as individualists, hierarchists, egalitarians and fatalists, can provide a conceptual framework fo…
Rethinking individual relationships with entities of nature
Recognizing variation in human–nature relationships across different contexts, entities of nature and individual people is central to an equitable management of nature and its contributions to people, and to design effective strategies for encouraging and guiding more sustainable human behaviour. We complement the broader Intergovernmental Science‐Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) conceptual framework by zooming in fr…
Prevalence of Chlamydia trachomatis in the general population in Germany – a triangulation of data from two population-based health surveys and a laboratory sentinel system
Chlamydia seems to mainly affect adolescents and young adults in Germany, with similar overall prevalence in men and women, but with slightly different age distributions. Women at highest risk of chlamydia are covered by the current screening program but given the on-going discussions in high-income countries on cost-effectiveness and benefit-to-harm ratio of these programs, the program-aim needs reconsideration
Practices of comparison and the making of international orders
News selection and framing
The media widely covers large carnivores and their impacts on human livelihood and plays an important role in their conservation. Yet, we know little about how species identity affects news selection, framing, accuracy and information flow. We investigated the online coverage of two cases of attacks or alleged attacks on humans alternatingly attributed to wolves and dogs in Greece and Germany. The period during which wolves were considered the pr…

This study explores motivators for mobile app purchase among “Gen Z” consumers. Adjectives that describe the mobile purchase experience were collected from focus group respondents. Factor analysis of the adjectives produced clusters named “Affective,” “Functional” and “Anxiety.” “Anxiety” was the most powerful factor. However, when tested in linear regression “Affective” and “Functional” were unique significant predictors of mobile app purchase i…

Institutional Reforms and the Politics of Inequality Reproduction
This contribution to the special issue explores how institutional reforms are shaped by and feed back into the politics of inequality reproduction. IR has recently begun to more closely study how hierarchies intersect. This article uses the analytical concept of “interlinkages” to grasp how international organisations couple intra-organisational patterns of unequal representation to extra-organisational social hierarchies. It empirically investig…

Cosmovisión y celebración del mundo andino a través del ejemplo de la comunidad de Q'ero (Paucartambo)
La comunidad de Q'ero se encuentra en las alturas del límite de las provincias de Paucartambo y Quispicanchi, en el Departamento de Cusco. El territorio abarcado por ella -un total de 85,000 Has.-, alcanza desde los 4,8000 mts. hasta los 1,800. Componen la comunidad unas 500 personas o 9 familias (¡sólo hay 13 apellidos!), que viven en siete poblaciones de altura entre los 3,800 y los 4,300 sobre el nivel del mar
Mito de Inkarri-Qollari (cuatro narraciones)
Las versiones del Mito de Inkarri que en esta oportunidad da a conocer Thomas Müller, se suman a otras dos que fueron recogidas, en la misma localidad, a fines de la década del 50 por Oscar Núñez del Prado y Efraín Morote Best. La localidad referida es la comunidad de Q'eros, que tiene fama de ser una de las más tradicionales que existen en el área andina y que ha atraído el interés de numerosos antropólogos entre los cuales nos contamos también …

The reversibility objection against the Second Law of thermodynamics viewed, and avoided, from a logical point of view
In this paper we offer a formal-logical analysis of the famous reversibility objection against the Second Law of thermodynamics. We reconstruct the objection as a deductive argument leading to a contradiction, employing resources of standard quantified modal logic and thereby highlighting explicit and implicit assumptions with respect to possibility, identity, and their interaction. We then describe an alternative framework, case-intensional firs…
The ‘Poitrot Report’, 1945
The aim of this paper is to shed light on the so-called ‘Poitrot Report’, submitted to the French Military Government in Baden-Baden, Germany, in December 1945 and published in a reduced German version in 1946. Its author was the French-Moroccan psychiatrist Robert Poitrot, who had been put in charge of the public mental asylums in Südwürttemberg after World War II. Poitrot took responsibility for restoring psychiatric care during the occupation,…
Le placement familial et les liens entre difficultés économiques et intégration sociale des malades mentaux dans la France du xixe siècle
Le comparatisme est une méthodologie bien établie dans l’histoire de langue allemande et dans les sciences connexes. Mais l’histoire de la médecine reste en retrait jusqu’ici. Cette contribution discutera d’un côté la mise en œuvre de la méthode comparative en histoire de la médecine et, d’un autre côté, dans le cadre d’une problématique d’histoire de la psychiatrie. Elle en explicitera les enjeux pour l’étude de l’assistance aux malades mentaux …
The variety of institutionalised inequalities
This article argues that the research on institutionalised inequalities pays too little attention to competing understandings of stratification and the variety of interlinkages between the patterns of stratification and the institutions of international society. Building on the English School and theories of stratification, it develops an analytical framework that conceptualises these ‘stratificatory interlinkages’ as a twofold decision: firstly …

Walras et Pareto revendiquent tous deux la pertinence des mathématiques pour faire progresser la scie…

Medizinische Expertise - zionistische Visionen
In National Socialist Germany Jewish academicians and professional staff were initially deprived of their rights and marginalised, later they were chased down and murdered. With regard to those, who were able to escape the National Socialist realm of power, one can speak of a forced migration of academicians that reached a dimension which until now was unknown. A greater number of different academic as well as non-academic occupational groups hav…

La irrigación Pacchanta
Han pasado dos años desde la primera solicitud, dos años de permanentes visitas a oficinas, entregando memoriales, justificaciones del proyecto, etc. Estos dos años también han sido turbulentos en cuanto a la política nacional y la política agraria. Los últimos años del gobierno de F. Belaúnde Terry, incansable en dañar al campesinado peruano, y el cambio hacia la revaloración del campesinado, serrano sobre todo, con el gobierno de Alan García.
