Abstract What is political about political refugeehood? Theorists have assumed that refugees are special because their specific predicament as those who are persecuted sets them aside from other “necessitous strangers.” Persecution is a special form of wrongful harm that marks the repudiation of a person's political membership and that cannot—contrary to certain other harms—be remedied where they

We argue that the (mis)treatment of Eastern European migrant workers during the pandemic revealed the existence of a two-tier EU citizenship, despite the political discourse of equality within the EU. We show that this two-tier citizenship system was generated by the combined effect of differentiated rights and of prejudicious practices applied to EE citizens. In terms of differentiated rights, we

Objective Menopausal transition, brings significant changes to various aspects of health and well-being, including sexuality. These changes are influenced by hormonal changes, psychological factors, and societal perceptions. Historically, research on menopausal transition has predominantly focused on pharmacological treatments, to address symptoms. However, these studies often neglect the inclusio

This presentation discusses material and performative aspects ofsound art through the combination of sculptural objects, soundsand a sensing system. Our work ‘Schíma – morphé – íchos’, offersitself up as a sound installation, a sculptural ensemble and a liveperformance where form, structure, playability and the backgroundsystem are brought together to identify new ways of composing,making and part

The art of medicine in the semi-urban and poorly literate medieval Nordic countries was essentially a craft. Those skilled in medicine learned their profession by being apprenticed to people who were more experienced and knowledgeable. But unlike other crafts, such as that of the potter or the carpenter, one could not practice just any way. One could not start from scratch with one’s lump of clay

This article examines a gendered reconfiguration in the Japanese empire’s approach to the control of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) during the Asia-Pacific War (1937–1945), tracing how state surveillance expanded from targeting women, especially sex workers and ‘comfort women’, to also encompass imperial soldiers as potential vectors of infection. This reallocation of scrutiny restructured t

Floods account for the majority of disasters caused by natural hazards worldwide, and their frequency and intensity are set to increase further as a result of climate change. To protect people and property, protective measures such as dykes and drainage systems are put in place. However, events that are often overlooked in this context are compound floods, in which several types of flooding occur

The Mediterranean subpopulation of sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) is classified as Endangered by the IUCN, yet the western Ionian Sea, a key corridor connecting the eastern and western Mediterranean sub-populations, remains a data-poor region for cetacean monitoring. Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) offers an effective approach for long-term surveillance of this deep-diving species, but la

Spår i sanden: Mänsklig påverkan på sandstränder Att åka till stranden en varm sommardag är en populär aktivitet som många ser som en självklarhet. Inför badsäsongen rensas de populäraste stränderna på tång och annan stranddrift för att välkomna de snart kommande badgästerna och när tiden väl är inne fylls både stranden och dynlandskapet med folk som letar efter den perfekta platsen att slå sig nDuring the summer season, many popular beaches are subjected to human disturbances by way of excessive trampling and beach cleaning. Falsterbo beach in the south of Sweden is one example of this. By making plant establishment harder and removing important habitat structures, these types of disturbances have been shown to negatively influence the vegetation of coastal habitats, reducing both biodiv

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death worldwide. Inflammation plays an important role in different CVD such as atherosclerosis and myocarditis. Myocarditis is characterized by immune cell infiltration in the myocardium. This can lead to fibrosis, cardiac remodeling, progression to dilated cardiomyopathy and heart failure. New evidence highlights the role of immunometaboli

More than 70% of climate policies target low-carbon technologies, with hopes that policy support will trigger tipping points and self-reinforcing growth. In practice, however, trajectories of policy-driven technologies remain difficult to explain and anticipate because their growth is nonlinear and often constrained by backlash, policy reversals and systemic barriers. In this Perspective, we devel
