Reconciling Goffman and Disability Studies: “Interactional” and “Structural” Stigma in the Lives of Parents of Learning‐Disabled Adults

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Erving Goffman cuts a divisive figure in disability studies. Some criticize his conception of “stigma” as deviance‐focused and as ignoring structural forces that shape personal encounters. Others praise his recognition of stigma as an interactional phenomenon.

The Hermite–Hadamard–Mercer Type Inequalities via Generalized Proportional Fractional Integral Concerning Another Function

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2022
In order to be able to study cosmic phenomena more accurately and broadly, it was necessary to expand the concept of calculus. In this study, we aim to introduce a new fractional Hermite–Hadamard–Mercer’s inequality and its fractional integral type ...

Chebyshev's inequality of the Mercer type

, 2022
We consider the discrete Jensen-Mercer inequality and Chebyshev's inequality of the Mercer type. We present bounds for Chebyshev's functional of the Mercer type and bounds for the Jensen-Mercer functional in terms of the discrete Ostrowski inequality. We show how these results can be used to establish new refinements of the considered inequalities.

Advances in Ostrowski-Mercer Like Inequalities within Fractal Space

Fractal and Fractional, 2023
The main idea of the current investigation is to explore some new aspects of Ostrowski’s type integral inequalities implementing the generalized Jensen–Mercer inequality established for generalized s-convexity in fractal space.

Networks paving the way: Apprenticeship, guilds, and access to mastership in early modern Genoa

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates how kinship and professional networks shaped labour market outcomes in the guild‐based labour market of early modern Genoa. Using a newly constructed dataset of more than 8,000 apprenticeship contracts (1451–1530), I examine the extent to which family and guild connections influenced apprentices' chances of attaining ...

Company‐Sponsored Fertility Benefits: A Gift‐Exchange and Contextual Intersectionality Informed “FAiRE” Framework Guiding Design and Implementation

Gender, Work &Organization, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Managing the work‐fertility interface is a major challenge for organizations when implementing fertility policies. These policies cover a broad spectrum of areas including clinical treatments, preservation and storage of eggs and sperm, preimplantation and diagnostics, and non‐clinical family‐building assistance. They also differ from standard
