Watching soap opera in the diaspora: cultural proximity or critical proximity?
This paper focused on an area of transnational Arabic television, which has attracted little scholarly attention: soap operas and their consumption among women in the Arab diaspora. Focus groups with Arab audiences in London revealed the significant role that soap operas play in sustaining a gendered critical and reflexive proximity to the Arab world ...

Critical proximity in translating RRI
The term ‘translation’ has been proliferating in reflections of researchers who participated in European projects engaging with responsible research and innovation (RRI). Additionally, the outlines of a distinct ‘translational RRI’ approach are increasingly becoming visible. Departing from the observation that RRI researchers are unavoidably implicated

The architecture curriculum is usually divided into studio courses and lecture or seminar courses where design and research, respectively, are separately pursued. Although the curriculum is designed to unite the approaches of design, the humanities, and the sciences that together comprise the architectural endeavor, in practice these epistemological ...

Assessment of kidney proximal tubular secretion in critical illness [PDF]
BACKGROUND Serum creatinine concentrations (SCrs) are used to determine the presence and severity of acute kidney injury (AKI). SCr is primarily eliminated by glomerular filtration; however, most mechanisms of AKI in critical illness involve kidney proximal tubules, where tubular secretion occurs.

Proximity to a nearly superconducting quantum critical liquid [PDF]
The coupling between superconductors and a quantum critical liquid that is nearly superconducting provides natural interpretation for the Josephson effect over unexpectedly long junctions, and the remarkable stripe-spacing dependence of the critical temperature in LSCO and YBCO superconductors.

Proximity to criticality predicts surface properties of biomolecular condensates
It has recently become appreciated that cells self-organize their interiors through the formation of biomolecular condensates. These condensates, typically formed through liquid–liquid phase separation of proteins, nucleic acids, and other biopolymers, exhibit reversible assembly/disassembly in response to changing conditions.

On critical proximity: Distance, difference, and digital sociality
This article offers innovations at the nexus of theory and method for an ethnographic and engaged political ecology. In it we consider the expansion of digital technologies and digitally-mediated social interactions within and beyond the kinds of geographically out-of-the-way sites that have long animated this interdisciplinary field.

This essay considers how written language frames visual objects. Drawing on Michel Foucault’s response to Raymond Roussel’s obsessive description, the essay proposes a model of criticism where description might press up against its objects. This critical closeness is then mapped across the conceptual art practice and art criticism of Ian Burn.

A Proximization Study of Critical Discourse Analysis
This paper analyzes Biden’s 2022 State of the Union Address using proximization theory to investigate how Biden legitimized his policies in his State of the Union Address. The study finds that Biden fully utilized temporal, spatial and axiological proximization theories in his State of the Union Address.

Effect of ferromagnetic proximity on critical behavior
The continuous phase transition in thin magnetic films and superlattices has been studied using the magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) and polarized neutron scattering (PNR). It has been shown that the critical behavior of amorphous thin films belonging to the 2D XY universality class can be described within the same theory as crystalline sample.
