Social Democracy and the “Developmental State” as Development Alternatives for South Africa [PDF]
This paper investigates social democracy and the “developmental state” model as development alternatives for South Africa. This research is significant as it enhances the developmental debate in South Africa that is indispensable in light of South Africa’

Democracy and the Project of Liberal Inclusion
, 2013 Democracy is a multi-dimensional concept, ranging from definitions based exclusively on institutional frameworks (for example, Held, 2005, Przeworski, Alvarez, Cheibub and Limongi, 2000) to complex and integrated measures that include political and civil

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The APTES linker establishes a permanent interfacial dipole, reducing the work function of n‐GaN from 3.55 to 3.29 eV. This strengthens the built‐in electric field, significantly accelerating hole extraction to drive the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Ultimately, this tailored charge‐separation architecture achieves a remarkable 4.78‐fold enhancement

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Functional elastomer overlayers are integrated onto stretchable ZnS:Cu‐PDMS mechanoluminescent films to regulate light after emission without modifying the emissive composite. NLC‐PU provides haze‐assisted light extraction to enhance green mechanoluminescence, while DCM‐NLC‐PU combines green‐to‐yellow‐orange color conversion with enhanced outward light

, 2018 The paper presents conceptual analyzes of liberal democracy. It shows that liberal democracy appears as harmonic association of different spheres and rights but it inside contains contradiction betwen democracy (collective decision) and liberal principle

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Neuromorphic plasticity in OECTs is governed by the post‐stimulus evolution of coupled ionic and electronic states. Semiconductor chemistry and morphology, electrolyte composition and interfaces, and device architecture regulate ion injection, transport, confinement, and release, shifting responses from rapidly relaxing STP to metastable memory and ...

The Centrality of Voting in Democracy: The Plebiscitarian Origins of the Idea
Politics and GovernanceDemocracy is often equated with voting, an assumption shared by many defenders, reformers, and critics of liberal democracy. This article explores the origins of the idea of the centrality of voting in democracy, arguing that current thinking about ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A 6‐in wafer‐scale atomic‐layer‐controlled tungsten disulfide (WS2) is achieved by combining plasma‐assisted synthesis with three‐gas reactive ion etching. Precise layer control enables tunable band‐gap evolution and pulse‐history‐dependent opto‐memristive dynamics.

Material Coupling in Hybrid Neuromorphic Devices: From Fundamentals to System‐Level Applications
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Hybrid neuromorphic devices utilize heterointerfaces between emerging semiconductors, where charge transfer and trapping, ion or defect modulation, and photogating are translated into synaptic functions. This paper discusses coupling strategies that tailor interfacial electronic and ionic properties in organic semiconductors, metal oxides, two ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A particle‐level dual‐polymer interphase of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) stabilizes zinc metal powder anodes by coupling CMC‐mediated water regulation with PAA‐derived Zn2+ affinity. This synergy suppresses hydrogen evolution, corrosion, and byproduct accumulation while preserving electrode‐level electrical contact ...
