Marginalization of the Youth - a Current Societal Development?
Social Work and Society, 2008 The last two years a discussion on reforming the public sector has emerged. At its very heart we find important concepts like "˜quality reform', "˜democracy', and "˜development'. Recently I have presented an example of the "˜quality reform' in SocMag,

Why the EU is failing in its neighbourhood: the case of Armenia [PDF]
, 2012 As the Arab Spring has made clear, the EU’s strategic aim of being surrounded by a ring of secure, democratic, and prosperous friends has not yet materialized. While most previous analyses have found fault with inconsistent application of conditionality,

Exciton Binding Energy Modulation in 2D Perovskites: A Phenomenological Keldysh Framework
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The intrinsic screening effects are successfully decoupled from structural distortion by rigorously designing a series of 2D perovskites. This enabled us to demonstrate how the dielectric environment modulates the quasiparticle bandgap and exciton binding energy.

Melt Grafting of Geometry‐Tailored Voltage Stabilizers for High‐Performance Polypropylene Insulation
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A scalable one‐step melt grafting strategy is developed to enhance the dielectric properties of isotactic polypropylene by covalently incorporating thermally stable aromatic voltage stabilizers. This solvent‐free approach improves volume resistivity and DC breakdown strength through deep trap formation and charge localization, offering a sustainable ...
