Corporate Power in a Multistakeholder World: Venue Hopping and the Multilevel Politics of Ultra‐Processed Food

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The regulation of business is increasingly characterized by “soft” governance regimes that blur the boundaries of public and private authority, as signaled by the rapid proliferation of multistakeholder initiatives in global governance. This article explores how the spread of multistakeholderism creates opportunities for new forms of strategic

Effect of long-term thermal history on physiological acclimatization and prediction of thermal sensation in typical winter conditions

, 2022
Thermal history plays an important role in thermal comfort of occupants. In this study, climate chamber experiments were conducted in winter using two groups of total 32 subjects who have different indoor thermal histories.

Shaping expectations, losing flexibility: A study of CEO promises as strategic communication tools

Strategic Management Journal, Volume 47, Issue 7, Page 1980-2061, July 2026.
Abstract Research Summary CEO promises are powerful but understudied communication tools. We develop a dual‐mechanism framework theorizing that while CEO promises elevate stakeholder expectations, they simultaneously constrain strategic flexibility. We argue that CEO promise‐making is shaped by two competing pressures: making more promises when the ...

Earlier Flash Drought Onset Driven by Spring Vegetation Greening and Warming

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract The onset timing of the flash drought season (TO) critically determines whether these rapid‐intensifying events coincide with sensitive stages of vegetation growth, as droughts occurring early in the growing season can severely undermine ecosystem productivity. However, how TO has evolved under climate change remains unclear.
