Skilled for Whom? Immigration Policy, Racial Capitalism, and the Reproduction of Inequality in Britain

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the UK's 2025 Immigration White Paper as a critical site for understanding how immigration policy functions as an instrument of racial capitalism. Drawing on Critical Race Theory, the theory of social reproduction, and intersectionality, it interrogates how the state's construction of the ‘skilled migrant’ operates as a ...

Inverse Kinematics of Discretely Actuated Hyper-Redundant Manipulators Using Workspace Densities

, 1996
Hyper-redundant manipulators present an alternative to conventional 6 DOF manipulators for inspection, space, and medical applications. The additional degrees of freedom facilitate obstacle avoidance and allow tasks to be performed even if some of the ...

Fault-Tolerant Dynamic Control for Manipulators

, 2010
A fault-tolerant manipulator can be expected to perform a desired task even if a joint actuator fails. When a manipulator experiences a joint actuator failure, it can be considered as an underactuated mechanical system.

Excavating Early Burawoy: Toward a Third Position in the Race‐Class Debates

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper intervenes in contemporary sociological debates over the relationship between race and class by excavating the early writings of Michael Burawoy. Against the prevailing polarization between twin absolutist models in which either racism or capitalism alone possesses causal force, we argue that Burawoy articulates a third position—one

What is (de)politicization and what is wrong with it?

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This article attempts to clarify the meaning of (de)politicization. Politicization sometimes refers to the inappropriate intrusion of partisan loyalties in nonpolitical social domains (affective politicization). Politicization can also constitute an ideal of civic agency and energy (contestatory politicization).
