Social democracy and full employment [PDF]
Full employment was the centrepiece of the economic policy of social democracy in the post-war period. Whilst the role of Keynesianism in policy making may be exaggerated, it offered the prospect of maintaining full employment without any section of ...

The ‘Competence’ discourse in education and the struggle or social agency and critical citizenship [PDF]
, 2009 This paper argues for an education for critical citizenship closely connected with a revitalisation of the democratic public sphere and which prepares citizens to contribute to the emergence of a ‘substantive democracy’ (Giroux, 2001). An education for

Receptor‐Free Identification of Toxic Gases Enabled by Hygroscopic Aqueous Salt Films
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Water as a gas sensor coating sounds impossible—until it stops evaporating. Here, hygroscopic salt solutions (LiCl, LiBr, H3PO4) form non‐drying aqueous films on CNT chemiresistors under ambient air. Gases partition into these liquid layers, sometimes transforming into water, and generate salt‐specific resistance fingerprints across a four‐channel ...

Speckle‐Engineered Upconversion Amplification in Nanoemulsion‐Templated Hydrogel Microdomes
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Nanoemulsion‐confined PEGDA microdomes generate speckle‐like excitation fields that strongly amplify upconversion luminescence upon dehydration, enabling filter‐free visible readout with reversible on–off switching. DMD‐based lithography yields scalable, shape‐programmable arrays for moisture‐responsive displays and optical encryption.

Education for Democracy in the Light of Catholic Social Teaching
Kościół i PrawoThe subject of democracy as a value is a reality that is embraced by many entities. John Paul II used to say that “Freedom is not given, it is a task.” The same can be said of democracy, which is not given once and for all, but is a task for us.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The shape of guanine self‐assemblies is tuned by introducing alkyl (G8), fluoroalkyl (G8f), and oligoether (G8g) side chains into the G moiety. The scanning tunneling microscopy results and calculations show that the presence and type of the side chain strongly affect the G self‐assembly network.

How European Protest Transforms Institutions of the Public Sphere - Discourse and Decision-Making in the European Social Forum Process [PDF]
Against the background of the alleged democratic deficit of EU institutions, this case study explores how politicization and emerging transnational public spaces in European protest movements innovate existing practices of discursive or grassroots ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A reactive in situ solution complexation strategy reconstructs the surface of 2.0 eV ultra‐wide‐bandgap perovskites via proton transfer. This chemical modulation eliminates metallic defects and induces a degenerate‐like n‐type surface, establishing an Ohmic tunneling contact.
