Impacts of coal smoke on infant mortality: Evidence from industrializing Japan
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the health consequences of coal smoke during Japan's early industrialization. Using fixed‐effects models and a prefecture‐level panel dataset on actual coal consumption and infant mortality from 1899 to 1910, this study finds that higher coal consumption was positively associated with infant mortality.

Hence, we can let our imagination wander anywhere. There are two ways of pushing back against this ‘innocence of imagination’ claim.

Idle talk, untruth, and entities in Heidegger's Being and Time
European Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.Abstract This paper advances a novel interpretation of Heidegger's conception of idle talk (Gerede) in Being and Time, foregrounding a largely neglected yet central feature and explicating its normative dimensions. I argue that idle talk can be understood only in light of its connection to untruth and coveredness (Verdecktheit), and that this ...

‘This Is Not Europe’: Investigating the Commission's Anti‐Populist Articulation of ‘European Values’
JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.Abstract Whilst ‘populism’ is often considered antithetical to ‘European values’, how this contrast shapes the very meaning of such ‘values’ remains underexplored. This article investigates the European Commission's anti‐populist articulation of ‘European values’, which constructs ‘populism’ as their constitutive outside.
