The History of African Development – published by the African Economic History Network (AEHN) – aims to draw experts in the field of African History, Economics and African Development Studies together around an open access textbook. The textbook is primarily intended for teachers/lecturers and undergraduate students, at African universities, but also for an interested public audience. The chapters
Audio Paper
Audio Paper offers a conceptual and practice-based approach for researchers across a wide range of disciplines to integrate auditory culture into their published work in the form of the audio paper.The audio paper is an academic text presented as an audio production. Introducing this new format, the book invites scholars to work in a publication format that integrates aesthetic perspectives and te
What Is the Future of Agriculture in Small Island Developing States? The Case of Mauritius
Small Island Developing States (SIDS) face ongoing challenges in balancing agricultural sustainability with economic growth due to limited land resources, rapid urbanisation, climate change, and reliance on food imports. This study explores the evolution of land use and the future of agriculture in Mauritius from 2002 to 2022, using satellite imagery, policy reviews, and stakeholder interviews. Fi
Navigating Affective Locations : Locations, Emotional Economies and Layers of Legitimisation in the Production of the Danish Feature Film Kalak in Greenland
This chapter explores the production of Kalak (2023), emphasising the significance of locations, historical contexts and emotional economies in filmmaking in a Danish-Greenlandic context. This production navigates narrative and practical challenges through three layers of legitimisation. First, centring the narrative on a Danish character allows both Danish and Greenlandic filmmakers to engage wit
On the Edge : In situ Kelvin probe AFM on InP nanowire arrays
Surface physics play an outsized role in nanostructured electronic devices such as solar cells. Semiconductor nanowires are perfect candidates for advanced solar cells due to their outstanding light absorption properties and their flexibility in axially stacking materials of different doping and band gap. Due to nanowire geometry, however, their surfaces dominate device performance and at the same
Interfaces in Epitaxially Grown Zn3P2 Nanowires and Their Composition-Dependent Optoelectronic Properties for Photovoltaic Applications
Epitaxially grown nanowires have shown promise for photovoltaic applications due to their nanophotonic properties. Moreover, the mechanical properties of nanowires can reduce crystallographic defect formation at interfaces to help enable new material combinations for photovoltaics. One material that stands to benefit from the nanowire morphology is zinc phosphide (Zn3P2), which, despite promising
Deras sista vilja : Adliga arvsstrategier och testamentespraxis i 1800-talets Sverige
Från sekelskiftet 1800 förlorade adeln sina privilegier allt eftersom. En viktig reform om lika arv för pojkar och flickor genomdrevs 1845 mot livliga protester från adelns sida. I riddarhusets debatter framstår adeln som en konservativ grupp, inriktad på att försvara sin position och hålla samman arvfallen egendom, primärt genom att gynna söner framför döttrar. Frågan är dock i vilken utsträcknin
Breaking colonial borders : Arctic collaboration and the emergence of Indigenous screen industries in Sápmi and Greenland
This article explores how collaboration across Arctic borders has enabled the emergence of ultrasmall, Indigenous-led sectors, examining the development of Indigenous screen industries in Sápmi and Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland). The Sámi film industry has experienced a notable rise, driven by strategic transnational collaborations and the establishment of institutions such as the International Sámi
Measuring coherence factors of states in superconductors through local current
The coherence factors of quasiparticles in a superconductor determine their properties, including transport as well as their susceptibility to electric fields. In this work, we propose a way to infer the local coherence factors using local transport to normal leads. Our method is based on measuring the local current through a lead as the coupling to a second one is varied; the shape of the current
Reimagining Teaching Recognition : Motivational Incentives in University Merit Systems
This study explores systems for recognizing and rewarding teaching excellence in higher education, where engagement in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) is considered an important merit. Nearly a decade ago, Fanghanel et al. (2016) identified the underutilized potential of teaching recognition as an institutional tool. More recently, Graham (2025) has documented a transformation in u

Classification of 5-bit Binary Light Pulse Sequences Using Photoluminescence of Metal Halide Perovskite Memlumors
A memlumor is an innovative neuromorphic luminescent device with a state-dependent photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) designed for optical neuromorphic computing applications. Metal halide perovskite memlumors leverage charge trapping and photodoping to modulate the PLQY, making it dependent on the excitation light history. Here, we demonstrate the ability of perovskite memlumors to classify t

Adverse Neonatal Outcomes Following Planned Vaginal Birth Compared to Planned Caesarean Birth : A Population-Based Study
AIM: To compare adverse outcomes in neonates born by planned vaginal birth to those born by planned caesarean section.METHOD: This retrospective cohort study analysed data from southern Sweden between 1995 and 2015, using the perinatal revision South Register. Only women with singleton, term (≥ 37 + 0 weeks) and cephalic presentation were included. Planned vaginal birth included all vaginal non-in
Caesarean section rates in public vs private hospitals in Europe : a systematic review and meta-analysis using the Robson ten group classification system
INTRODUCTION: Since the last two decades, there has been a dramatic rise in caesarean sections (CS) throughout the world. This increase has been seen even in Europe, where rates vary significantly from 17% in Northern Europe to 56% in the South. Although, CS can be a lifesaving intervention when medically necessary, non-essential CS are associated with short- and long-term complications for both t

Strategic narratives in public diplomacy scholarship: practices, processes and politics of persuasion
This paper discusses the conceptual relationship between strategic narratives and public diplomacy and its analytical possibilities. It argues that public diplomacy can be understood as a set of persuasive narrative practices; that strategic narratives are central to processes of identity formation necessary for persuasive and credible public diplomacy communication; and that the contestation of s

Helping or Watching it Happen : How Participants Respond to Robot Failures in a Turn-Taking Game
Robot failures in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), though often stemming from technical limitations, can have severe effects on the interactional dynamics between humans and robots. Prior empirical research has led to conflicting findings on how such failures influence user perceptions and the overall success of the interaction. In this study, we investigate how human participants respond to robot f
