Forces Behind South Australia's Unusual Structural Changes Since 1840
Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The agricultural sector's share of GDP in growing economies typically declines but, for a century from the early 1850s, Australia's did not. That trend is most evident for the former colony and now State of South Australia (SA). Moreover, that share for SA has been almost flat since 1980 as well, along with the agricultural sector's share of ...

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract From desert ski resorts to subtropical Winter Games, there is a global proliferation of ‘mission‐impossible’ mega‐projects. The prevailing frameworks of city branding and urban entrepreneurism fail to explain the political logics behind these seemingly irrational projects.

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The article presents a sociological study of promise‐to‐marry ‘rape’ cases in India to illuminate the inner lives of intimacies. It argues that promise‐to‐marry cases cannot be understood merely as instances of deceptive sex, wherein the consent of the victim is vitiated by a false promise of marriage as a pretext for sexual intercourse ...
