A Test of the Coase Conjecture Using Prices of Electronic Books
Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Coase Conjecture predicts that a durable‐goods monopolist without commitment will rapidly cut price toward marginal cost. We test this prediction in the electronic‐book market using release‐day prices. To proxy for marginal cost, we use competitive prices of public‐domain electronic books on the same platforms.

Oxaziridines: Versatile Reagents in Modern Organic Synthesis
The Chemical Record, EarlyView.Being capable of transferring an O atom and N‐group/atom, oxaziridines are considered multitasking agents. These are employed for diverse organic transformations, such as epoxidation of olefins, α‐ and γ‐hydroxylation/amination of carbonyl compounds, oxidation of sulfides, [3+2]cycloaddition with unsaturated systems.

Linking telemetry data with forage availability maps advances information for moose management
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Evidence‐based forest and wildlife management requires precise estimates of forage availability for spatial planning and conflict mitigation. Recently, novel datasets and associated maps have been developed for use in Swedish forest and wildlife management.

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Reported annual per‐capita harvest of muskrats (PCHM) decreased as wetland complexity (total number of wetland patches) decreased in 13 state and federal wetland areas in the Midwest, USA. Our results support the hypothesis that regional‐scale declines in the abundance of muskrats are likely associated with the losses to wetland habitats throughout the

Facing Truths About Population Management
Zoo Biology, EarlyView.Populations of wildlife, and domestic animals have large sinks for surplus animals. By contrast, zoos don't. Humans in industrialized societies are socialized with companion animals, i.e. surplus (i.e., typically denied reproduction) originating from unseen breeding cores.

Hotter, faster, sicker? Warming shifts the cost of infection from individuals to populations
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This study examines how temperature alters disease impacts across biological scales in a host–pathogen system. We found infected hosts appear healthiest at warm temperatures, yet populations suffer most. This suggests climate warming may intensify disease impacts for populations in ways traditional individual‐level virulence metrics fail to predict ...

Individualism Without Individuality: Friedrich Hayek and the Neoliberal Citizen
Constellations, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Critics of neoliberalism increasingly examine its corrosive effects on democracy. Scholars often turn to Friedrich Hayek's political theory, arguing that it produces citizens who passively conform to spontaneous social orders. Yet insufficient attention has been paid to the normative conception of the human individual underlying his ...
