Can the localization ratio be considered as a resilience indicator in the supply chain?

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Supply chain resilience is concerned with establishing disruption‐resistant operational practices and ensuring the achievement of some planned performance responding to shocks. Thus, resilience is both a quality and a quantity. The existing literature is rich in analyzing each of these two parts separately. However, studies connecting quantity

Keep on Keepin’ on Down Under: Administrative Heritage and the Strategic Realignment of Multinational Enterprises in Australia During Deglobalization, 1914–79

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract We analyse the behaviour of multinational enterprises (MNEs) within a host nation – Australia – during deglobalization (1914–79). Deglobalization is often portrayed as a drastic event to which MNEs respond swiftly, probably through withdrawal from host countries.

Accent Change in the Wake of the Industrial Revolution: Tracing Derhoticisation Across Historic North Lancashire

open access: yesJournal of Sociolinguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article applies a social model of historical dialect evolution in 19th‐century Britain to the analysis of sociophonetic data. Our aim is to assess where new dialect formation is likely to occur, and where it is not. Using recordings from 27 speakers, we first analyse coda rhoticity in north Lancashire, UK. The speakers were born 1890–1917

Autoimmunity and Periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...
