King and Cochrane: The technological treadmill and racial inequity in US agriculture

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Between 1920 and 1969, the number of Black farmers in the US decreased from 14% of all operators to 4%. Using Martin Luther King Jr.'s critique of agricultural policy and Willard Cochrane's theory of the technological treadmill, we explore how racial discrimination was linked to policies that led to structural change in US agriculture.

Mountaineering as a specific form of recreation in the late 19th century [PDF]

Journal of Human Sport and Exercise, 2014
Aim of this paper is to characterize mountaineering in the late 19th century as a specific form of recreation on the example of the Prague section of ‘Deutschen und Österreichischen Alpenverein’ (DuÖAV). Alpinism developed in the second half of the 19th century in the context of the political and economic changes in Central Europe, which also gave rise

Exploring consumption profiles, consumer experience and quality claims of Canary Islands' cider (Spain): A multidimensional analysis

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract The exponential expansion of the global cider market positions it as a viable alternative to traditional choices such as wine and beer. Nevertheless, there exists a paucity of research examining the various factors influencing consumer interest in cider.

Grass functional traits reflect the long history of fire and grazers in the savannas of Texas

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Understanding relationships among grass traits, fire, and herbivores may help improve conservation strategies for savannas that are threatened by novel disturbance regimes. Emerging theory, developed in Africa, emphasizes that functional traits of savanna grasses reflect the distinct ways that fire and grazers consume biomass ...

A Novel Pathogenic Variant in CRB1 as the Cause of Non‐Syndromic Retinitis Pigmentosa in a Geographical Isolate in Northern Italy

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Non‐syndromic Retinitis Pigmentosa (NsRP) was well known as one of the causes of visual impairment already in the 19th century. Giuseppe Albertotti, Professor of Ophthalmology at the University of Modena (Italy) in 1893, described a high prevalence of NsRP in a geographic isolate, the small village of Colloro, in northwestern Italy.

The Insistence of Blackness and the Persistence of Antiblackness in Ireland

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper positions Ireland as a critical site for examining the insistence of blackness and an antiblackness created and sustained through Irish ethnonationalist imaginaries and exclusionary processes. Drawing on connected sociologies and Irish Black Studies, this enquiry argues that antiblackness in Ireland operates as a generational force,

Interfacial Photoelectrochemistry in Organic Synthesis

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Accepted Article.
Photoelectrodes have traditionally enjoyed widespread attention as heterogeneous catalysts for the activation of water and CO2 in energy research, while photoelectrochemistry with homogeneous molecular catalysts dominates the activations of more complex molecules in organic synthesis.

Ontogeny of the malleus in Mesocricetus auratus (Mammalia, Rodentia): Systematic and functional implications for the muroid middle ear

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The three mammalian auditory ossicles enhance sound transmission from the tympanic membrane to the inner ear. The anterior anchoring of the malleus is one of the key characters for functional classification of the auditory ossicles. Previous studies revealed a medial outgrowth of the mallear anterior process, the processus internus ...

Variability of jaw muscles in Tunisian street dogs and adaptation to skull shape

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The impact of artificial selection on the masticatory apparatus of dogs has been poorly studied, and comparative data with dogs subjected to more natural constraints are lacking. This study explores the jaw musculature of Tunisian street dogs, which are largely free from the influence of breed‐specific selection.
