Promoting Climate‐Friendly Behaviour Under Cognitive and Coordination Constraints: A Multi‐Level Framework for Sustainable Development Governance

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite widespread concern about climate change, climate‐friendly behaviour remains difficult to sustain in practice. This article argues that the core challenge lies less in insufficient motivation than in the cognitive and coordination demands imposed by prevailing decision environments.

Smuggling Sovereignty: Trade, Transgression, and State Authority

Economic Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global supply chains are saturated with transgressions—corruption, smuggling, document forgery, and other practices that blur the line between legality and illegality. States do not merely endure these practices; they actively shape the conditions for them, producing the very illegal systems they then claim to police.

Intermodal, urban, mobil – Charakterisierung intermodaler Wege und Nutzer am Beispiel Berlin

Raumforschung und Raumordnung, 2017
Intermodal travel behaviour – the combination of different modes on a single trip – is increasingly taken into consideration in everyday mobility. In particular, urban areas face negative consequences from high car traffic and scarce parking space ...

Tracing Adaptive Transfer Across Genres and Media: GenAI‐Supported ESL Learners' Digital Multimodal Composing and Traditional Writing Practices

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Drawing on the adaptive transfer and the genre knowledge model as a conceptual framework, this research explores how English as a second language (ESL) learners transferred knowledge across genres (narration and argumentation) and media (print‐based writing and video) with the assistance of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) platforms ...

Network Structure and the Efficiency Gains from Mergers: Evidence from U.S. Freight Railroads

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The trade‐off between market power and efficiency gains is central to antitrust analyses of mergers, but empirical evidence quantifying efficiencies remains limited. Using transaction‐level data from U.S. freight railroads (1985–2005), this article quantifies merger‐induced cost efficiencies, driven mainly by eliminating inter‐railroad ...

Cisterna Chyli Dilation Is a Risk Factor for Liver Nodules and Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Fontan‐Associated Liver Disease: Pathophysiological Role of Lymphatic Dysfunction

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim In Fontan‐associated liver disease (FALD), chronic congestion often confounds conventional fibrosis markers, complicating surveillance for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Although lymphatic dysfunction is fundamental to Fontan physiology, its contribution to hepatocarcinogenesis remains unclear.
