The Institutional Grammar Tool meets the Narrative Policy Framework: Narrating institutional statements in consultation. [PDF]

open access: yesEur Policy Anal, 2021
Abstract We compare the Narrative Policy Framework (NPF) and the Institutional Grammar Tool (IGT). Given the focus of this special issue on the NPF, we first theorize how the IGT can contribute to the development of NPF categories, but also how the former gains conceptual leverage from the latter.

Measuring design diversity: A new application of Ostrom's rule types. [PDF]

open access: yesPolicy Stud J, 2022
Abstract We draw on the Institutional Grammar Tool's rule types to empirically analyze the design of four major procedural regulatory instruments in the 27 member states of the European Union and the UK. They are: consultation, regulatory impact assessment, freedom of information, and the Ombudsman.

Who Should Pay for Interdependent Risk? Policy Implications for Security Interdependence Among Airports. [PDF]

open access: yesRisk Anal, 2020
Abstract We study interdependent risks in security, and shed light on the economic and policy implications of increasing security interdependence in presence of reactive attackers. We investigate the impact of potential public policy arrangements on the security of a group of interdependent organizations, namely, airports.

From Cosmopolitan to Vernacular in the Language Sciences: A Global History Perspective

open access: yesBerichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 18-37, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Sheldon Pollock's justly famous work on cosmopolitan orders and processes of vernacularization in the worlds of Latinity and Sanskrit invites questions of a comparative and global‐historical character. I will raise such questions in the context of the Persianate cosmopolitan order, especially as exemplified by the early modern Ottoman Empire ...

Volatilization Potential of Per‐ and Poly‐fluoroalkyl Substances from Airfield Pavements and during Recycling of Asphalt

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Volume 41, Issue 9, Page 2202-2208, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Per‐ and poly‐fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in water are typically present in their ionic (nonvolatile) forms; however, these can transition to their nonionic (volatile) forms when in contact with organic solvents and organic matrices. In particular, when PFAS are dissolved in organic solvents such as residues left from firefighting foams ...

Identifying organic chemicals not subject to bioaccumulation in air‐breathing organisms using predicted partitioning and biotransformation properties

open access: yesIntegrated Environmental Assessment and Management, Volume 18, Issue 5, Page 1297-1312, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Because the respiration processes contributing to the elimination of organic chemicals deviate between air‐ and water‐breathing organisms, existing and widely used procedures for identifying chemicals not subject to bioaccumulation in aquatic organisms based on the octanol–water partition ratio KOW need to be complemented with similar ...

A Political Economy Approach to the Grammar of Institutions: Theory and Methods

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 453-471, May 2022., 2022
This article proposes a political economy approach to the grammar of institutions, by building on the study of contracts in economics. First, I argue that more attention needs to be paid to the costs and benefits of institutions, thus allowing researchers to derive empirically testable hypotheses on the evolution of institutions. In this vein, the role

Functionalized bio‐adsorbents for removal of perfluoroalkyl substances: A perspective

open access: yesAWWA Water Science, Volume 3, Issue 6, November/December 2021., 2021
Abstract Poly‐ and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known as “forever chemicals” due to their ubiquitous persistence in the environment, and their negative human health effects. Among them, short‐chain PFAS are of increasing concern due to their high solubility and mobility in water, while possessing persistency and toxicity nature like their ...

A Critical Review of a Recommended Analytical and Classification Approach for Organic Fluorinated Compounds with an Emphasis on Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances

open access: yesIntegrated Environmental Assessment and Management, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 331-351, March 2021., 2021
ABSTRACT Organic fluorinated compounds have been detected in various environmental media and biota. Some of these compounds are regulated locally (e.g., perfluorononanoic acid maximum contaminant level in drinking water by the New Jersey Dept. of Environmental Protection), nationally (e.g., perfluorooctanoic acid maximum acceptable concentration in ...
