Determinants of case outcomes in Rwanda's postgenocide gacaca courts

open access: yesCriminology, EarlyView.
Abstract Transitional justice trials have become a central mechanism for addressing mass violence and human rights violations, yet little is known about the determinants of case outcomes within these courts—particularly in domestic contexts. This study examines Rwanda's gacaca courts, a localized transitional justice system that tried people suspected ...

Effect of Salinity Stress on Gut–Brain–Gonad Axis in the Red‐Eared Slider (Trachemys scripta elegans)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The increase in salinity leads to changes in the gut microbiota and metabolites of Trachemys scripta elegans, affecting the synthesis and secretion of neurotransmitters or precursors, which can inhibit the secretion of reproductive hormones and affect the self‐renewal and differentiation process of spermatogonial stem cells.

Volumetric Comparison of Overall Brain and Neuropil Size Between Social and Non‐social Spiders: Exploring the Social Brain Hypothesis

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Brain size may be influenced by the cognitive demands of sociality (social brain hypothesis). We used microCT to compare CNS and brain volumes in social versus solitary huntsman and crab spiders. Social huntsman spiders had larger arcuate and mushroom bodies, while social crab spiders had larger visual neuropils.

Genome Expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in Basal Species or Liver Expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in Advanced Species, Two Different Strategies to Ensure Sufficient ZP Synthesis in Teleosts

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We found that teleosts employed two different strategies to ensure sufficient ZP (zona pellucida) synthesis: expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in basal species or liver expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in advanced species. The N‐terminus of expanded ZPB1(a) or ZPC1(a) and liver‐expressed ZPB1a contains repeated units or low‐complexity regions to form ...

Saving Water to Survive: Alternative Water Loss Strategies Could Explain Color Polymorphism Maintenance in a Lacertid Lizard

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that red male Podarcis muralis exhibit higher evaporative water loss compared to other morphs, indicating a physiological strategy that prioritizes hydroregulation over fine thermoregulation. This suggests red morphs are adapted to cooler, wetter niches, while white and yellow morphs possess superior water conservation mechanisms to ...

Who Moves First? Price Discovery by Institutional and Retail Investors

open access: yesAccounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper uses 77 million Finnish trades, classified as foreign institutional or domestic retail, to examine the drivers of price discovery. The results show that foreign institutional investors dominate price discovery overall, including during the Global Financial Crisis. Their informational advantage is explained by buy‐ and sell‐initiated

Short‐Term Profits for Long‐Term Value: Corporate ESG Dilemmas Under Earnings Pressure and Pathways to Governance

open access: yesAccounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the negative effect of earnings pressure (EP) on corporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance and explores governance mechanisms that can address this problem. Drawing on behavioural agency theory and incorporating insights from resource allocation theory and agency theory, this paper identifies the key

Surface Rights: Sovereignty, Citizenship and the Question of Mineral Rights in the Woodward Commission

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Politics &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article retraces the Woodward Commission on Aboriginal Land Rights in the Northern Territory, focusing on the question of mineral rights. Mineral rights were assumed in the Commission's terms of reference and expected by many Aboriginal people. Why, then, were they not recommended by the Commission?
