Toward a Politics of Planetary Care: The Limits of More‐Than‐Human Approaches, Silenced Notes From Indigenous Forest Worlds in India

American Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 4, Page 809-825, December 2026.
ABSTRACT In response to the planetary climate crisis, influential scholarship has directed us to decenter the human, recognize nonhuman agency, and imagine more‐than‐human futures. But what might this leave out? Drawing on Indigenous forest worlds in India and the incarcerated intellectual‐activists who struggled alongside them, this article develops a

On Bank Pricing of Single‐Family Residential Home Loans: Are Australian Households Paying Too Much?

International Review of Finance, Volume 26, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the persistent divergence between observed mortgage rates and a capital‐market‐implied benchmark in the Australian residential housing finance market. Using quarterly data from 1998 to 2025, we construct a synthetic variable‐rate mortgage benchmark based on fixed‐rate mortgage yields, interest rate swaps, and swaptions to ...

Ruins in the Field: Materiality, Spectres and Pluritemporal Encounters of the Oxford University Arctic Expedition

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 4, December 2026.
Short Abstract This paper contributes to conceptual debates on ruins by generating novel insights into how encounters with the haunted materialities of ruins in the field inform (post)colonial trajectories of exploration. Empirically, it examines how material and spectral traces of past lives in the field, alongside play with categories of absence and ...

Wood Sawdust as a Low‐Cost Filler in Whole‐Tire Reclaimed Rubber: Mechanical Characterization and Factory‐Scale Cost Analysis

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 41, November 5, 2026.
Whole‐tire reclaimed rubber is upgraded with wood sawdust, a carpentry by‐product available at no cost, across loadings from 0 to 20 wt%. At 5 wt%, tensile strength, elongation, hardness, viscosity, and water absorption all stay within commercial specification, and real factory data show an annual production saving near $62,000 with no capital ...
