, 2012 BACKGROUND: Trachoma control programs utilize mass azithromycin distributions to treat ocular Chlamydia trachomatis as part of an effort to eliminate this disease world-wide. But it remains unclear what the community-level risk factors are for infection. Jeremy D Keenan, Yu, Sun N, Robin L.

Journal of Applied Philosophy, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 491-506, May 2026.ABSTRACT
Semiotic objections to markets hold that buying and selling certain things – for example, sex, body parts, votes, surrogacy services – expresses that those things are fungible with money, which has only profane value. This article offers a more fundamental challenge to semiotic critiques of markets.Andrew Allison, Jason Brennan, Peter Jaworski +2 morewiley +1 more sourceWhen can antibiotic treatments for trachoma be discontinued? Graduating communities in three African countries. [PDF]
, 2009 BACKGROUND: Repeated mass azithromycin distributions are effective in controlling the ocular strains of chlamydia that cause trachoma. However, it is unclear when treatments can be discontinued. Investigators have proposed graduating communities when the Jeremy D Keenan, Anthony W Solomon, Solomon, AW, Ray, Kathryn J, Mabey, David, Harding-Esch, Emma, Martin J Holland, Lietman, TM, Lietman Thomas M., Thomas M Lietman, Travis C Porco, Harding-Esch, E, Kathryn J Ray, Porco, Travis C, Keenan, JD, Bailey Robin L., Keenan Jeremy D., Bailey, RL, Mabey, D, Mabey David, Ray, KJ, Solomon, Anthony W, Emma Harding-Esch, Porco Travis C., Solomon Anthony W., Burton, Matthew J, Burton Matthew J., Robin L Bailey, Porco, TC, Holland, MJ, Bailey, Robin L, Keenan, Jeremy D, Holland, Martin J, Harding-Esch Emma, Lietman, Thomas M, David Mabey, Matthew J Burton, Ray Kathryn J., Holland Martin J., Burton, MJ +39 morecore +2 more sourcesToxic Entanglements: Asylum and Extraction in the Republic of Nauru
PoLAR: Political and Legal Anthropology Review, Volume 49, Issue 1, May 2026.ABSTRACT
Recent years have seen a dramatic increase in the outsourcing of asylum processing and resettlement from Global North to South. Many of these containment practices retrace the fault lines of more typically thought‐of colonial extractive regimes. This article draws on long‐term ethnographic research conducted in the Republic of Nauru, the world'Julia Morriswiley +1 more sourceRisk factors for active trachoma and Chlamydia trachomatis infection in rural Ethiopia after mass treatment with azithromycin.
