Power and Limitations of Inferring Genetic Ancestry

Annals of Human Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The recent emergence of technologies that capture and analyse genetic variation patterns obtained from a person's DNA sample has led to numerous academic and commercial endeavours to infer individuals' ancestries. In theory, a person's genome contains a wealth of readily accessible information regarding their ancestors, despite only

Farmers' pro‐social motivations and willingness‐to‐accept in markets with public goods

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract To explain how some farmers' decisions may diverge from profit‐maximization, we incorporate proactive social preferences for public goods in an expected utility framework, in addition to reactive risk preferences to uncertainty. We offer empirical evidence that proactive preferences influence farmers' decisions alongside reactive preferences ...

From Colonial Natures to Entangled Ecologies: Making Due and Relational Geographies of Indigenous Resurgence in the Chaco

Antipode, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper offers an alternative reading of decolonial geographies by examining how people make due in the context of colonial natures. Drawing on collaborative ethnographic research, we illustrate how everyday acts of reclaiming ancestral lands serve as practices of resistance that foment Enxet and Sanapaná resurgence in Paraguay's Chaco.

Abstract In the decade since the so‐called Arab Spring first drove debates around the relationship between images and militancy, hundreds of films have documented the uprisings and their aftermath. Yet little scholarship has considered the political consequences of films made in relation to the Arab Spring or situated new works in relation to earlier ...

For a Critical Logistics of Eviction: Producing Property Through Mobility in Cape Town

Antipode, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding eviction as a positioning of bodies and loss in a property relation, I argue a critical logistical reading may offer a means of describing the capacity to evict within the economic, racial, reproductive, and political configurations that drive the decisions and motives for eviction. With a focus on the Cape Town metropolitan area,

Antipode, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper documents the application of private property logics to social housing in Hungary. It achieves this through a discourse analysis of public media and various district government newsletters published between 1994 and 2000 in the lead‐up to the passage of anti‐squatting legislation known as Lex Juharos.
