Conceptual colour: race, economic knowledge, and the anthropology of financialization De la couleur comme concept : race, connaissances économiques et anthropologie de la financiarisation

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Economic anthropologists now carry out fieldwork in settings for which the ethnographic method was never designed, amongst powerful financial actors who are notoriously difficult to access, and in contexts which transcend geographical boundaries. This has engendered a re‐orientation of anthropology, to consider not only the economic lives of people but

Estimated assessment of the static position of the hull with a change in the pre-tensioning force of the tracks [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
The article proposes a method for calculating the static position of the machine body. The mathematical model of the running gear is given. The dependence of the position of the center of mass in height relative to the ground on the pre-tension forces ...

Norman and Nietzsche: The Political Project of Lindsay's The Magic Pudding

Australian Journal of Politics &History, EarlyView.
Australian artist and writer Norman Lindsay (1879–1969) wrote 11 novels and two children's books, one of which—The Magic Pudding first published in 1918—remains a national classic. This article argues that readers and critics have long misunderstood Lindsay's intention in writing this lengthy cartoon‐story about the adventures of Bunyip Bluegum in ...

Biomechanical properties of adjustable extracortical graft fixations in ACL reconstruction

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2018
Background Reliable biomechanical data about the strength of different tibial extracortical graft fixation devices is sparse. This biomechanical study compares the properties of tibial graft fixation in ACL reconstruction with either the ACL Tight Rope ...

The Generics Revolution and the New Economic Geography of the Global Pesticide Industry

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global pesticide industry transformed from one dominated by patented products and legacy multinationals with strong manufacturing bases in the United States and EU to one dominated by generic products produced in India and China. We use proprietary market research data, data from regulatory filings, industry press and bilateral trade data ...

Beam to Column Timber Joints with Pretensioned Bolts

Civil Engineering Dimension, 2011
The effects of pretension in bolts on hysteretic response of timber joints exposed to a bending had been reported by the authors, but the cyclic tests were carried out at small displacement level which might not be applicable for earthquake-resistance ...

The Manifold Impacts of Management Research

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Management scholarship's apparent lack of impact is a misconception based on the presumption that impact involves a direct and visible influence of papers or research projects on management practice. Theory‐building impacts management practice in diverse, sometimes indirect and unnoticed, manifold ways.

Impact of five different medial patellofemoral ligament-reconstruction strategies and three different graft pre-tensioning states on the mean patellofemoral contact pressure: a biomechanical study on human cadaver knees

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2018
Background The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is the main stabiliser of the patella and thus mostly reconstructed in the surgical treatment of patellofemoral dislocation.
