HOUSING QUESTION OLD AND NEW: Mapping Crowding, Tenure, Rents and Segregation in the Neighborhoods of Major European Cities around 1900 and Today

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In a context of unprecedented urbanization, nineteenth‐century European cities faced the ‘housing question’, i.e. precarious housing standards and affordability problems. While existing research has well described these historical housing problems in single‐city studies or in national urbanization histories, to our knowledge, there are hardly ...

THE LEGITIMACY TRAP: Street Vending Heterogeneity and Selective Enforcement in San Francisco

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Literature on street vending regulation often emphasizes the challenges in enforcing legal frameworks due to unclear laws or insufficient state capacity. However, it tends to overlook diversity among vendors themselves along crucial parameters such as spatial location, community ties and processes of goods procurement.

A theory of post-stall transients in multistage axial compression systems [PDF]

open access: yes
A theory is presented for post stall transients in multistage axial compressors. The theory leads to a set of coupled first-order ordinary differential equations capable of describing the growth and possible decay of a rotating-stall cell during a ...

Skilled for Whom? Immigration Policy, Racial Capitalism, and the Reproduction of Inequality in Britain

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the UK's 2025 Immigration White Paper as a critical site for understanding how immigration policy functions as an instrument of racial capitalism. Drawing on Critical Race Theory, the theory of social reproduction, and intersectionality, it interrogates how the state's construction of the ‘skilled migrant’ operates as a ...

Women's Off‐Farm Employment and Dietary Quality in Rural Africa

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most households in rural Africa are involved in smallholder farming, but off‐farm employment is an important additional income source for many. Previous research has analysed links between off‐farm employment and well‐being, but mostly at the household level, not considering that household members may be affected differently.

“Green Developmentalism” and the Role of International Law in Negotiating the Energy Transition

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy evolutions in North American and European capitals have prompted debates about ongoing shifts in global economic governance from a primary emphasis on promoting markets to a more extensive role for the state in steering economic relations.

An Experimental Investigation of the Flow Physics Associated With End Wall Losses and Large Rotor Tip Clearances as Found in the Rear Stages of a High Pressure Compressor [PDF]

open access: yes
The focus of this work was to characterize the fundamental flow physics and the overall performance effects due to increased rotor tip clearance heights in axial compressors. Data have been collected in the three-stage axial research compressor at Purdue
