Diplomacy, Globalization and Heteropolarity: The Challenge of Adaptation [PDF]

The School of Public Policy Publications, 2013
Globalization is the defining historical process of our times, conditioning, if not determining, outcomes across vast swathes of human activity. At the same time, a heteropolar world is emerging, one in which various and competing sources of power and ...

Central Asian Prism of The Belt and Road Initiative: Social Sustainability and Capacity Building Specifics

Journal of Central Asian Studies
As traditional international institutions decline in effectiveness, states increasingly adopt pragmatic, interest-driven foreign policies. Nowhere is this shift more evident than in Central Asia, where historical legacies, geographic constraints, and ...

Directional Flow of Confined Polaritons in CrSBr

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
CrSBr, a layered magnetic semiconductor, naturally channels self‐hybridized excitonpolaritons into highly directional flow. Its intrinsic optical anisotropy, high refractive index, and strong lightmatter coupling enable long‐range guided modes along the a‐axis, with propagation lengths set by their excitonphoton admixture.

Two Competing Normative Trajectories in the Context of the First Baltic Gay Pride Parade in Lithuania

Baltic Journal of Law & Politics, 2014
For a long time post-Soviet space has been perceived as homophobic and intolerant of LGBT persons. The three Baltic States - Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia - as former Soviet republics and current members of the European Union, represent the space where a

Strong Coupling in all‐Polymer Planar Microcavities

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Strong Coupling has been achieved in an all‐polymer microcavity with dielectric contrast Δn = 0.33 doped with TDBC. A Rabi splitting of 39 meV has been measured opening novel perspectives for polymer photonics. ABSTRACT In this work, strong coupling effect is observed in all‐polymer planar microcavities incorporating TDBC J‐aggregates dispersed into ...

Surface Fermi Level Modulation of Photoanode by Optimized Conducting Nanoparticle Heterointerfaces for Enhanced Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Optimizing the heterointerface coverage of the conducting Ni2P nanoparticles on the surface of BVO photoanode manipulates the surface Fermi‐level modulation, which significantly enhances photoelectrochemical oxygen evolution reaction. Our multiscale simulations and experimental results reveal that an optimal Ni2P coverage of 9.4% pins the surface Fermi

Critical peace education and democratic participation in fragmented societies: bridging the gap between civic knowledge and civic power in Nigeria

Frontiers in Political Science
Deep ethno-religious divisions and political distrust characterize the social and political environments in Nigeria. These fault lines are responsible for recurring conflicts that continue to undermine social cohesion, peacebuilding, and democratic ...

Data‐Driven Design of Self‐Adhesive Epidermal Electrodes and Sensors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents self‐adhesive, stretchable epidermal electrodes and sensors developed through a data‐driven design framework that integrates artificial neural networks with genetic algorithms. By tailoring optimization objectives, either maximizing electrical conductivity and adhesion or enhancing piezoresistive sensitivity, the study enables the ...
