Formation of Distance‐Based Orientation: Political Identity through Relational Positioning in Israel

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Distance‐based orientation describes how pejorative labels may serve as anchor points for political identity. Existing research on political labeling has largely emphasized stigmatization, overlooking how labels may acquire durability and orienting capacity without losing pejorative force. Drawing on publicly circulating discourse, we trace positioning

Preliminary Study on Unit Commitment for Renewable Energy Integration Considering Operation Cost and Life Cycle Assessment

IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.
Most countries, including Japan, are focused on achieving net‐zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050, which requires quick action. Despite the increasing level of renewable power generation in power grids, fossil fuel power plants still have a significant role in producing GHG emissions, causing serious environmental issues.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Mitigating Financial Barriers to Trauma Care in Cameroon Through Locally Designed Quality Improvement

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
In low‐ and middle‐income countries, trauma patients frequently face delays and inequities in care due to out‐of‐pocket payment requirements for basic medical supplies. In Cameroon, such financial barriers may impede timely emergency treatment and worsen outcomes.

Development of a Surgical Data Availability and Transferability Assessment Tool and Its Use in Evaluating Mozambique's Surgical Data Ecosystem

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
In 2015, the Lancet Commission on Global Surgery promoted the adoption of six perioperative care indicators and increased their visibility in national health policies. However, regular reporting of these surgical indicators is limited due to challenges with data infrastructure and workforce capacity.

Waypoint Navigation of a 2D Drone in Stochastic Environment via Regularised Proximal Policy Optimisation

Artificial Intelligence for Engineering, EarlyView.
We present a three‐stage training framework combining Behaviour Cloning warm‐starting with auxiliary‐regularised Deep Reinforcement Learning PPO fine‐tuning for 2D drone waypoint navigation under stochastic wind. Persistent imitation regularisation prevents catastrophic forgetting, achieving robust generalisation to unseen targets and out‐of ...

The Dark Pyramid: Unpacking the Multidimensional Nature of the Dark Side of Leadership

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract The dark side of leadership has been employed as an umbrella term to cover an array of concepts typically concerned with the dysfunctionality and/or toxicity of individual leaders. As the field of leadership studies moves towards ‘post‐heroic’ perspectives, we apply the same ontological positioning, adopting a ‘post‐villainous’ perspective in ...

The Silence That Could Not Hold: Foreign Policy and the Fall of Keir Starmer

The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Keir Starmer's resignation in June 2026 has been narrated almost entirely in domestic terms: the rise of Reform UK, the rout of the May local elections, the winter fuel payment and two‐child benefit cap retreats, the Mandelson appointment. This article argues that such accounts mistake the proximate triggers for the underlying cause.
