What Jobs Do Workers Want? Worker Preferences in Global Value Chains
British Journal of Industrial Relations, EarlyView.ABSTRACT What do workers in global value chains (GVCs) consider a good job? Research on work in GVCs largely studies compliance with standards set from the top‐down rather than worker preferences. Understanding worker preferences is crucial because workers are the intended beneficiaries of governance institutions; policies better aligned to their ...

Geochemistry, Geophysics, GeosystemsPresent‐day convergence between Caribbean and North American plates is accommodated by subduction zones, major active thrusts and strike‐slip faults, which are probably the source of the historical large earthquakes on Hispaniola.

Subspecies taxonomy reflects social and geographic patterns of taxonomic effort in tetrapods
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Subspecies have been used in conservation biology to account for intraspecific patterns in genetic diversity, which is crucial to long‐term population viability. Although over 3200 subspecies are currently assessed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List, their biological relevance remains controversial.

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Unmanaged captive populations of threatened species often harbor hidden genetic risks, so using genomic tools, we audited a large private macaw collection and uncovered extensive hybridization and high inbreeding. Our findings provide an actionable framework for how routine genetic screening can be used to mitigate these risks, manage captive breeding ...

Which Decolonization? Theorizing Decolonization beyond Decoloniality and its Critics
Development and Change, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The debate on decolonial thought has reached an unhelpful stalemate. A core problem in assessing decolonial thought is that the term ‘decolonization’ has been stretched so widely that it now allows for many competing uses. For some critics of decolonial thought such as Nigerian philosopher Olúfẹ́mi Táíwò, this overuse points to conceptual ...

Foreign Language Annals, EarlyView.Abstract Critical pedagogical approaches such as critical literacies represent important tools for incorporating diversity, equity, inclusion, and social justice into L2 teaching, an objective that is more important now than ever before. However, research has shown that implementing such practices is difficult—even for instructors who value them—due to

Integrating fossil data in ecological niche models to improve predictions of future habitat of Caribbean corals. [PDF]
Conserv BiolAbstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) are used to assess the abiotic preferences of species by linking their occurrences to the environmental conditions in which they live. We developed a fossil‐informed ENM framework that integrates mid‐Holocene and modern occurrences to test niche stability and reconstruct abiotic niche characteristics for four ...
