Futures of Transit Work: Contesting Devaluation and Neoliberal Automation in Bus Transit
Anthropology of Work Review, Volume 47, Issue 1, July 2026.ABSTRACT Being a bus operator has long meant access to middle class wages, quality benefits, and union membership, forms of security increasingly rare amid growing precarity. But transit is in trouble. In the wake of the COVID‐19 pandemic and decades of disinvestment, bus operators face mounting time pressure, frequent violence, and eroding job ...

Defining the geographical level of competition: a taxonomy of industry tradability
Economica, Volume 93, Issue 371, Page 962-991, July 2026.Abstract The paper develops a taxonomy of industry tradability to define the geographical level at which competition takes place. First, it creates a novel dataset that combines production and international trade data for both goods and services industries, defined at a detailed (3‐digit) level of industry aggregation for 15 European countries.

Decisions Under Radical Uncertainty: The Role of Volitional Liminality in Radical Innovation
Journal of Product Innovation Management, Volume 43, Issue 4, Page 592-615, July 2026.ABSTRACT Academic Summary Radical innovation management can be understood as an organizational practice that enacts distant futures, which are open‐ended and unknowable. Such radical innovation endeavors are thus characterized by radical uncertainty, where possible futures are not only quantitatively but qualitatively different from the present, and ...
