INTRODUCTION: REFLECTIONS ON HISTORY AS PROPHECY, CONTINUING THE CONVERSATION

History and Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this essay, I provide brief introductions to the notion of “prophetic” historiography that I developed in Writing the Past, Inscribing the Future: History as Prophecy in Colonial Java (1995) and to the five essays of this forum that were written in dialogue with it. I argue that “history as prophecy” forms a practice of writing in which the

The Geoeconomic Turn on Stage: National Identity and the Interpretation of the EU's Trade Sustainability Diplomacy in Indonesia and Vietnam

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract In the context of the European Union's (EU's) geoeconomic shift, the governance of Trade and Sustainable Development (TSD) has become a central yet contested pillar of its external trade policy. Accusations of green colonialism highlight the stakes around how partner countries interpret the EU's normative agenda.

Microstructure, texture evolution and mechanical properties of a large-scale multidirectionally forged Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr-Ag alloy

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023
A large-scale Mg-6.2Gd-3.7Y-0.9Zn-0.3Zr-0.3Ag (wt.%) magnesium component with the dimension of 480 × 250 × 160 mm3 was fabricated via direct-chill (DC) casting, homogenization and multidirectional forging (MDF).

Ultrafine Grain Evolution in a Cu-Cr-Zr Alloy during Warm Multidirectional Forging

Materials Science Forum, 2014
The microstructure evolution and the deformation behavior of a Cu-0.3%Cr-0.5%Zr alloy subjected to multidirectional forging at a temperature of 673 K under a strain rate of about 10-3 s-1 were studied. Following a rapid increase in the flow stress during straining to about 1, the strain hardening gradually decreases, leading to a steady-state flow ...

Study on Multi‐Step Deformation Mechanisms and Synergistic Regulation of Strength and Ductility in Ti‐2Al‐2.5Zr Alloy Tubes for Nuclear Power Applications

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT To overcome the strength–ductility trade‐off in fabricated Ti‐2Al‐2.5Zr alloy tubes, we systematically investigated the microstructural evolution and mechanical behavior throughout thermomechanical processing, including hot working (forging and extrusion) and cold multi‐pass rolling.

Evading Strength–Ductility Trade‐Off in Titanium Matrix Composites via High‐Critical Resolved Shear Stress Dislocation Promotion and Grain Subdivision

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The strength and ductility trade‐off in titanium matrix composites (TMCs) is a critical factor limiting their widespread application. In this study, a (TiB + TiC)/Ti–6Al–4V composite with an optimal balance between strength and ductility was engineered via multi‐directional forging.

Dual‐Phosphorus, Dual‐Nitrogen‐Embedded Corannulene: Synthesis, Structure, and Electronic Coupling

ChemistryEurope, Volume 4, Issue 5, May 2026.
P2N2‐TBC, a corannulene‐based bowl structure incorporating two phosphorus and two nitrogen atoms, represents the first P2N2‐embedded heterobuckybowl. The cis and trans stereoisomers of this compound display distinct packing motifs, leading to markedly different electronic coupling patterns.

Stress‐guided photo‐programming of cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers for 2D‐to‐3D shape–color information encoding

Responsive Materials, Volume 4, Issue 2, May 2026.
We reported a stress‐guided photo‐programming strategy that enables cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers (CLCEs) to achieve synchronous 3D shape morphing and structural color evolution from a single 2D film. Abstract Flexible materials with dynamic structural colors have attracted considerable interest for multilevel information interaction, showing ...

On account of doomsday

American Ethnologist, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 159-170, May 2026.
Abstract In recent years, Berlin has emerged as an epicenter of climate activism in Germany. There, a range of groups have mobilized in opposition to the role of the German state and the EU in accelerating the climate crisis. Many activists now see conventional political responses as exhausted and have turned to increasingly radical forms of civil ...
