A History of ‘Religious History’

Journal of Religious History, EarlyView.
As a category denoting the analysis of religious actors across history disinterestedly and on their own terms, “religious history” is a relatively recent coinage. This article offers a brief contextualisation of the emergence of the field in the twentieth century. It distinguishes “religious history” from an older, “confessional” mode of ecclesiastical

‘Fine Men from Afar’: Cricket and Empire on the Home Front

History, EarlyView.
Abstract During the Second World War, contrary to enduring images of bombardment and scarcity, people on Britain's ‘Home Front’ continued to take part in a broad array of sporting activities. Cricket played a more significant role in the wartime sporting landscape than many historians have previously recognized.

PARTY‐STATE URBANISM: Coevolution of Local State Capacity and Strategic Alliances in Shenzhen

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract What is distinct about Chinese urban governance? Classic theories predict that when the central state retreats from resource allocation, capacity‐strained local governments must form alliances with non‐state actors, thereby diluting state power. In China, however, state power remains dominant despite decentralization.

A method to estimate actual infrastructure‐induced mortality by integrating hierarchical sources of imperfect detection

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Human infrastructures are among the most impactful wildlife threats. Although estimates of animal mortality by these structures exist over a given period, they typically do not account for several levels of imperfect detection (i.e. difference between recorded and true mortality).
