Abstract This article argues that W. E. B. Du Bois grounded his seminal conceptualisation of “the Negro church” in a Pan‐Africanist challenge to how Christian reformers and missionaries' usage of “Darkest Africa” as a metaphor for modern urban vice and poverty denigrated Africa and the African diaspora while promoting a segregated, imperialist version ...

A model-based monocular vision system for station keeping of an underwater vehicle
A model-based monocular vision system for station keeping of an underwater vehicle is presented. Through such system accurate and reliable 3D pose information (roll, pitch, yaw and XYZ translations) of the vehicle relative to the model-known observed ...

The State Itself as a Vulnerable Subject? Existential Resilience under International Law
This paper proposes a new framework for analysis of the law governing State continuity, with particular reference to Small Island Developing States (SIDS) threatened with legal extinction as a result of rising sea‐levels. Prevailing wisdom suggests that if States were to lose their inhabitable land or permanently resident populations, their status ...

Mitochondrial fatty acid enzyme, CPT1A, is deficient in the airway epithelium of severe asthma patients. Restoration of CPT1A expression improved epithelial barrier integrity via increasing mitochondrial respiration and ATP production in airway epithelial cells. Restoration of deficient epithelial CPT1A may represent a new treatment approach for severe

Making Mining Licit: Gold, Commodification, and the Everyday Performance of Law in Colombia
ABSTRACT Ethnographies of resource‐making have shown that the extraction of resource value from objects is premised on obviating the emplaced lifeworlds that surrounded objects before they traveled to consumer markets. Much of this literature looks at such supply‐chain disentanglement from the viewpoint of corporate and formal regulatory practices ...
