UNWARRANTED CONFIDENCE: A CRITICAL REVIEW OF THE POVERTY OF ANTI‐REALISM

open access: yesHistory and Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Poverty of Anti‐Realism: Critical Perspectives on Postmodernist Philosophy of History, edited by Tor Egil Førland and Branko Mitrović, celebrates the new dawn of historical realism, which it claims supersedes the erroneous and harmful anti‐realism.

Fine‐scale genetic structure in co‐operatively breeding Palmchats (Dulus dominicus) suggests mixed kinship in compound nests

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Fine‐scale genetic structure in animal populations can create opportunities for both kin‐directed co‐operation and kin competition. Knowledge of kinship is therefore key to understanding the selective pressures shaping sociality as well as the effects of social behaviour on local genetic structure.

Conservation implications of shifting habitat use in migrating insects: Selection patterns in a threatened damselfly show that season‐specific actions are needed

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Well‐preserved heathlands of NW Italy are the main overwintering habitat of Sympecma paedisca, while grassy margins in farmland are used only in summer and are avoided from autumn onwards. Grassy margins in farmland act as corridors during the species' migrations between its breeding (ricefields) and overwintering (lowland heathlands) grounds ...

Spatial close‐kin mark‐recapture models applied to terrestrial species with continuous natal dispersal

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution
Close‐kin mark–recapture (CKMR) methods use information on genetic relatedness among individuals to estimate demographic parameters. An individual's genotype can be considered a ‘recapture’ of each of its parent's genotype, and the frequency of kin‐pair ...

Genes, fish and fisheries: translating science into policy

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The 2024 Annual Symposium of the Fisheries Society of the British Isles reviewed the burgeoning impact of ‘omics’ technologies on fish ecology, management and forecasting. As with life sciences more generally, major advances in speed, cost‐effectiveness and breadth of applications in ‘omics’ has had profound societal and environmental impacts.

Points vs. passes: A comparison between electric fishing techniques for sampling fish populations in upland headwater streams

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Point‐abundance sampling by electric fishing (PASE) was compared with single‐pass (DF1) and triple‐pass depletion sampling (DF3) electric fishing on the same reaches of four headwater streams sampled over multiple years in the Ribble catchment, UK. Juvenile salmonids, mostly brown trout Salmo trutta with some Atlantic salmon S.

Weaponizing Kinship: A Demographic Analysis of Bereavement in the Colombian Conflict

open access: yesPopulation and Development Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The ongoing Colombian armed conflict has produced widespread homicides and enforced disappearances, as armed actors used violence to terrorize communities and consolidate power. Family bereavement—one of the most pervasive and enduring consequences of this violence—remains critically understudied from a quantitative perspective.

Fugitive Junctures: Life‐Seeking, Route‐Finding and the Mobile Ensemble at Kenya's Borders

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Fugitivity has become an important conceptual frame to understand the illegalised mobilities of contemporary migrants in conjunction with enslaved people's historical lines of flight as spatial praxes to seize their own freedom. Thinking from Kenya, and drawing on research with migrants, border officials, activists, police and smugglers,

Determining Activity Patterns and Home Range of Wild Bats Using a Proximity Biologging System Based on the Internet of Things (IoT)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Proximity data, traditionally used for inferring social networks, can inform utilization distribution at a fine scale. Using a sampling grid approach, it is possible to identify activity hotspots and spatial dynamics in conservation‐priority habitats. ABSTRACT Understanding spatial patterns in small, elusive species is critical for behavioral ecology ...

Articulating Sovereignties: Struggles for Subaltern Hegemony in Ecuador and Bolivia

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines the cycles of articulation and disarticulation between working‐class and indigenous‐campesino movements in Ecuador and Bolivia. While the former advances national‐popular sovereignty, aiming to strengthen the state against imperialism, the latter defends community‐territorial sovereignty against internal colonialism ...
