An Ordeal of Peoplehood: Indigenous Australians and the Debates over Sovereignty, Treaty, and Voice

Australian Journal of Politics &History, EarlyView.
The Australian government's 2009 commitment to the 2007 United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples did not make Indigenous Australians a “people.” In 2017, in the Uluru Statement from the Heart, Indigenous Australians asserted peoplehood and asked Australians to recognise this via a constitutional amendment that would have created ...

Two orders of wall‐to‐wall geographic data

Area, EarlyView.
Short Abstract The use of the term ‘wall‐to‐wall’ to describe geographically extensive data without any singular definition in the remote sensing and geographically related analysis. This work presents an assessment of the application of the term in the scientific literature. Abstract From personal observations of recent published works, the term “wall‐

Does nature shape risk preferences? Evidence from Chile, Norway, and Tanzania

Economic Inquiry, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 568-590, April 2025.
Abstract Does exposure to a more risky environment affect risk preferences? Going beyond single‐case study evidence, we report results from five surveys conducted in three countries and link this with administrative data to study whether a link between exposure and preferences is detectable and widespread. We find no evidence for endogenous preferences

Active employees in the future workplace: From job crafting to selfergetic job crafting

European Management Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The job crafting theory implies, but does not explicitly present the relationship between the self and the job. To fill the gap, we theorize upon the holistic view of the self, and selfergy, a new concept reflecting the unique manner by which employees craft their jobs. Based on the principles of the self‐determination theory, we have advanced
