Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Quantifying the structure and dynamics of species interactions in ecological communities is fundamental to studying ecology and evolution. While there are numerous approaches to analysing ecological networks, there is not yet an approach that can (1) quantify dissimilarity in the global structure of ecological networks that range from ...

A Parasite Not a Cannibal? How the State and Capital Protect Accumulation Amid Devastation
Antipode, EarlyView.Abstract Nancy Fraser's recent book, Cannibal Capitalism, breathes new life into the eco‐Marxist concept of the ecological contradiction, arguing capitalism destroys its own ecological conditions of possibility like a serpent eating its own tail. Fraser's thesis appears to be playing out in British Columbia forests, where industry is closing mills and ...

British Journal of Psychotherapy, EarlyView.Abstract Organ transplantation is a complex psychodynamic process. Previous psychoanalytic research has mainly dealt with the psychological integration of the new organ and the conscious and unconscious relationship of the recipient to the transplanted organ and the donor. Some works have also explored organ transplantation from a Lacanian perspective,

Direct Evidence for Cannibalistic Necrophagy as a Way of Nitrogen Recycling in Ants [PDF]
Ecol EvolAdequate nitrogen sources are essential for the development and reproduction of most animals. In eusocial insects such as termites and ants, some observations suggest that the protein needs of growing larvae may be met by consuming the corpses of nestmates—a behavior that remains controversial in ants and is primarily supported by indirect evidence ...
