Green Transition, Extractive Continuities: Lithium Mining and the Environmental Contradictions of Sustainability

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global decarbonization has positioned lithium as a strategic mineral for electric vehicles, battery storage, and low‐carbon development. Yet its extraction raises serious environmental, political, and justice concerns that complicate dominant narratives of clean energy progress.

Unnatural Causes: Cryptocurrencies, Carbon Credits, and the rise of Neoliberalism from Below

open access: yesEconomic Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Klima is a carbon‐backed cryptocurrency running as a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). In 2021, it had accumulated 9 million metric tons of digital carbon credits and reached a market value of more than US$1 billion. In 2023, its treasury stored twice as many carbon credits, but its spot price was a tiny fraction compared to 2021 ...

Dancing to multiple tunes: Establishing legitimacy with first‐time and repeat backers in crowdfunding campaigns

open access: yesStrategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Using 14,108 Kickstarter crowdfunding campaigns, we examine three strategies to gather support from first‐time versus repeat backers: narrative distinctiveness aligning with backers' expectations of novelty, endorsement from Kickstarter staff, and campaign leadership's reciprocity of funding other campaigns.

Near‐Armchair‐Enriched Growth of Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes via W‐Containing Fe‐Based Catalyst Systems in Mist FC‐CVD

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A mist‐based floating catalyst chemical vapor deposition (mist FC‐CVD) strategy allows the use of non‐volatile precursors and multi‐component catalyst delivery in a continuous process. Through catalyst composition control, it generates near‐armchair‐enriched single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and uncovers key factors governing chiral‐angle ...

Accomplishing Ethics‐Work as a Generic Social Process

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Existing systems of university research ethics are often criticized by those in the qualitative research tradition. A common thread is that ethics cannot be fully anticipated before the research begins, as is expected by most institutional review boards.

Model‐Based Systems Engineering in Space Applications: A Comprehensive Literature Review

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing complexity of space engineering is driving the demand to embrace the adoption of Model‐Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Although the MBSE is well‐practiced in the space industry, the level of effort and need required to obtain the benefits of MBSE vastly differ across enterprises; this disparity presents a significant challenge to

A Model Based Systems Engineering Framework for Digital Twins in Medical Device Innovation

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medical device development remains constrained by development processes centered largely in the physical domain. These methods limited early understanding of system behavior and prolonged timelines relative to other innovation pathways. Such limitations increase prototype cycle duration and the number of iterations required to resolve design ...

Creating a Masterpiece. The Road to (and Beyond) Woodward and Hoffmann's 1969 Angewandte Chemie Treatise

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
This publication describes how R. B. Woodward and Roald Hoffmann crafted their masterpiece publications. Illustrations include Woodward's first draft of the famous “Violations There are none. Nor can violations be expected of so fundamental a principle of maximum bonding.” Original but discarded text shows the stepwise paths toward the W‐H masterpieces.

Metalinguistic Awareness in the EFL Classroom and Beyond: Exploring the Potential of Translation Tasks

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Current trends encouraging a move away from monolingual teaching have sparked a renewed interest in the role of translation in language instruction. Yet, there are few theoretically and empirically grounded proposals regarding specific uses of translation in the language classroom.
