Entwined Liberations: North Korean Democratic Women's Union and Third World Internationalism, 1945–1949

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research focuses on how the North Korean Democratic Women's Union (NKDWU), the umbrella women's organisation in North Korea formed soon after Korea's liberation from Japanese colonial rule in 1945, forged international leftist women's solidarity during the North Korean state's liminal, revolutionary period (1945–1949).

Eocene and modern entomofauna differ—a Cretaceous‐like larva in Rovno amber

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 712-718, April 2025.
We report a 35 million‐year‐old lacewing larva from Ukrainian amber. This insect larva has a morphology up to now only known from 100 million‐year‐old amber. Therefore, this morphology survived more than 60 million years longer than previously assumed. Our find contradicts the common notion that the fauna 35 million years ago was already very modern.

Patterns of morphological evolution in the raptorial appendages of praying mantises

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This study traces changes in the morphology of the forelegs across fossil and extant dictyopterans to understand their evolution from cursorial limbs to the raptorial morphologies of mantodeans. Two new mantodean specimens preserved in amber are described herein.

High migratory potential of fall armyworm in West Africa despite stable temperatures and widely available year‐round habitats

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Despite the minimal annual temperature variation and the widespread distribution of potential year‐round habitats in Ghana, the migratory potential of the local fall armyworm remains strong and is indistinguishable from that of the fall armyworm in China, which undergo seasonal migration.

Cretaceous lacewing larvae with binocular vision demonstrate the convergent evolution of sophisticated simple eyes

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
We report three ca. 100 million‐year‐old lacewing larvae with extraordinarily large stemmata. One of them additionally has a very wide head, which represents a previously unknown morphology. The arrangement of the stemmata indicates stereoscopic vision in these predatory larvae.

Corruption, economic globalisation, and resistance: Insights from the Philippine rice industry

open access: yesGeographical Research, EarlyView.
Key Insights: This article shows how competing perspectives on corruption were deployed ideologically in debates about deregulating the Philippine rice industry and resulted in a policy that benefits some groups, such as consumers, at the expense of others, particularly small‐scale farmers. Abstract Scholars have shown that narratives of corruption can

Migration, Human Supply Chains, and the Multinational Enterprise: Confronting an Overlooked Global Mobility Challenge

open access: yesHuman Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past 2 decades, multinational enterprises (MNEs) have significantly increased their reliance on migrant workers in lower‐skilled jobs within global supply chains (GSCs)—a phenomenon largely overlooked in global mobility scholarship.

Validation and development of eDNA metabarcoding primers for comprehensive assessment of Chinese amphibians

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 20, Issue 3, Page 504-519, May 2025.
eDNA metabarcoding, using various primer sets, effectively amplified 83 amphibian species from China, showcasing its potential for biodiversity assessments. However, optimizing amphibian‐specific primers is crucial due to occasional non‐amphibian amplification.
