We examined the role of anti-extractivism as environmental peacebuilding through a conflict transformation framework. Environmental peacebuilding aims to foster peace through addressing environmental issues to remedy root causes of conflict; such efforts must further account for and respond to the changing climate. To this end, we explored how community-level movements encounter structural constra

Livscykelanalys (LCA) används för att utvärdera den potentiella miljöpåverkan av olika processer och tjänster, bland annat inom bygg- och fastighetssektorerna. Denna studie jämför tre LCA-verktyg som är speciellt utvecklade för användning inom bygg- och fastighetssektorn mot ett fjärde som är ett allmänt LCA-verktyg. En LCA görs för en fallstudie av ett flerfamiljshus där ett ventilationssystem meLife cycle assessment (LCA) is used to evaluate the potential environmental impact of different processes and services, including in the construction and real estate sectors. This study compares three LCA tools that have been specifically developed for use in the construction and real estate sectors with a fourth that is a general LCA tool. An LCA is performed for a case study of a multi-family bu

We explore the effects of foundation control on CEO incentive contracts.

We present a simple model of moral hazard which predicts that foundation-controlled (FC) firms will resort to executive compensation a

I employ as a case study a protracted slavery setting that has triggered one of the largest forced displacements of the past two decades: Eritrea’s Military/National Service. Through this unique example, I study slavery from legal-doctrinal and socio-legal angles, providing an

Linguistic Archaeology provides students with an accessible introduction to the field of linguistic archaeology, both as theoretical framework and methodological toolkit, for understanding the conceptual foundations and practical considerations involved in reconstructing the prehistory of language. The book introduces the field's expansion out of traditional approaches to focus more on the interpl

Concerns have been raised by both researchers and authorities regarding conspiracy theorists rejecting experts. To address the validity of these concerns, we need to delve into two key inquiries regarding who qualifies as an expert on conspiracy theories, and what constitutes an epistemically rational response (from a conspiracy theorist) when faced with expert testimony. The first inquiry present

Objective: To evaluate the long-term performance of the patch materials we have used to augment the pulmonary arterial tree across a wide spectrum of diagnoses and anatomical locations. Methods: Retrospective, single-center review of 217 consecutive pediatric patients at a tertiary referral center from 1993 to 2020 who underwent patch arterioplasty of the pulmonary arterial tree from the pulmonary
