PARTY‐STATE URBANISM: Coevolution of Local State Capacity and Strategic Alliances in Shenzhen

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract What is distinct about Chinese urban governance? Classic theories predict that when the central state retreats from resource allocation, capacity‐strained local governments must form alliances with non‐state actors, thereby diluting state power. In China, however, state power remains dominant despite decentralization.

Microphysical Simulation of the 2022 Hunga Volcano Eruption Using a Sectional Aerosol Model

Geophysical Research Letters
Approximately 150 Tg of water vapor and 0.42 Tg of sulfur dioxide were injected directly into the stratosphere by the January 2022 Hunga volcanic eruption, which represents the largest water vapor injection in the satellite era. A comparison of numerical

Hydrogels in Periodontal and Craniofacial Regeneration: Current Applications and Next‐Generation Biomaterials

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Hydrogel‐based therapies have proven to be valuable tools to address the unique regeneration challenges of complex multi‐domain periodontal and craniofacial tissues. This review highlights and classifies clinically approved and emerging hydrogel therapies indicated for the regeneration of periodontal and craniofacial tissues.

Erased by law: Kinship, care, and bureaucratic exclusion at the end of life in South Korea

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how institutional frameworks in South Korea erase nonlegal caregiving relationships within hospice care environments. Drawing on seven months of ethnographic fieldwork, the study delineates how patients are categorized as “unclaimed” despite the presence of long‐term companions or cohabitants who provide intimate end‐of ...

No Guide to Ground: Right‐Making and Right‐Makers

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is often taken for granted that right‐makers, that is, the things that make something—say, an action—right, do so by explaining why it is right. This view can be spelled out in terms of metaphysical ground: right‐making just is grounding of rightness facts.

Unstructured Purity

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purity is the principle that fundamental facts only have fundamental constituents. In recent years, it has played a significant (if sometimes implicit) role in metaphysical theorizing. A philosopher will argue that a fact [p]$[p]$ contains a derivative entity and cite Purity as a reason to deny that [p]$[p]$ is fundamental. I argue that recent

Life, but Not as We Know It: Why Fine‐Tuning Arguments Fail

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Definitions of “life” and theories of life are systematically neglected in arguments for and from fine‐tuning. Despite claims to be neutral about the definition of “life,” fine‐tuning arguments generally presuppose that life requires a form of structural complexity only afforded by physicochemical complexity of the sort with which we are ...

Contingent Grounding Physicalism

Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is widely held that physicalism is incompatible with the metaphysical possibility of zombies, i.e., beings physically just like us yet lacking in phenomenal consciousness. The present paper argues that this orthodoxy is mistaken. As against the received wisdom, physicalism is perfectly compatible with the possibility of zombies and zombie ...

A Theory of Sense‐Data

Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT I develop and defend a sense‐datum theory of perception. My theory follows the spirit of classic sense‐datum theories: I argue that what it is to have a perceptual experience is to be acquainted with some sense‐data, where sense‐data are private particulars that have all the properties they appear to have, that are common to both perception ...
