Abstract:
In this essay, I review Robert Fogel's The Escape from Hunger and Premature Death, 1700–2100, which is concerned with the past, present, and future of human health. Fogel's work places great emphasis on nutrition, not only for the history of health, but for explaining aspects of current health, not only in comparing poor and rich countries, but in thinking about rich countries now and in the future. I discuss Fogel's analysis alongside alternative interpretations that place greater emphasis on the historical role of public health, and on the current and future role of improvements in medical technology.

Applied anthropologists played a crucial role in building the intellectual framework and in providing a scholarly and creative foundation for the Central Avenue Legacies Project. However, community people, whose lives were influenced and changed by the rise and fall of the Central Avenue neighborhood, played significant and unique roles in this historical and educational endeavor. One of our primary collaborators and indeed, the man who provided many of the rich, detailed, and fascinating anecdotes about Central Avenue was Robert Saunders. His long history of work and activism in the community, his collection of letters, reports, and other historical documentation, and his very detailed memory made Mr. Saunders an invaluable resource throughout the project. During the planning process he served on the Advisory Committee, offering suggestions and wisdom. On the day of the event Robert Saunders actively participated as a guide on the walking tour and a panelist on the community forum.

Abstract:
End-of-life experiences go by various terms, including near-death experiences (NDEs), deathbed visions, deathbed phenomena, deathbed coincidences, and nearing death awareness. Deathbed escorts is the term applied to the vision of deceased family members or friends who inform the dying person that they will be accompanied in the transition from life. In this article, I examine the subject of NDEs and deathbed escorts, starting with the rich body of work provided by Robert and Beatrice Kastenbaum. A subject of some interest to Robert Kastenbaum, he explored this frontier in his many writings on dying, death, and bereavement. Ever the pioneer and having made the ultimate transition, he may yet be exploring new frontiers.

Abstract:
The study deals with the expression of social identity in Asians elite community circle found in the novel Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan. Primary data regarding social identity expressions are noted based on the characters’ utterances and author’s narration found in the novel. The study is categorized as qualitative research as the data are displayed in the form of words from the novel’s original language. The methods of collecting data used by the writer are reading and labeling. The writer acts as the mere observer without other instruments included. Data analysis method includes compiling, disassembling, reassembling, interpreting and concluding based on Robert K. Yin’s techniques of analyzing data. The results indicate that there are a number of social identity expressions in Kwan’s Crazy Rich Asians. There are two significant ways of expressing social identity of the rich: (1) the patterns of consumption including food, fashion, and personal luxury belongings. (2) social image maintenance through early education, interaction, special occasion and club membership.

Abstract:
Abstract When Claude Debussy called Ravel an “enchanting fakir” in 1907, he anticipated a critical approach typified by Vladimir Jankélévitch's 1939 Ravel biography. In it, Jankélévitch evoked the rich language of theatrical magic, comparing Ravel to a sorcerer, conjurer, and illusionist. Contemporary critics used similar terms to describe the composer's music as early as 1909, around the same time that a parallel narrative emerged: Ravel as a master of mechanism and artifice. A contextual study of theatrical magic, which has yet to be applied to Ravel criticism, provides a substantive connection between these narratives of mechanism, enchantment, and artifice. I begin with the French illusionist Robert-Houdin (1805–71), whose enduring legacy furnishes a forgotten background for Ravel criticism. Robert-Houdin claimed that he was not a mere juggler but “an actor playing the part of a magician,” which resonates with accounts of Ravel's Baudelairean artifice in life and work. For magicians, “illusion” was interchangeable with “effect.” The word “effect” recurs in both Ravel's writings and “The Philosophy of Composition,” a theoretical-didactic essay by Edgar Allan Poe, whom Ravel cited as one of his most important artistic influences. Ravel's appreciation of Poe has a much richer grain than has been imagined, extending beyond compositional artisanship to include literary and theatrical stratagems. Robert-Houdin, who started his career as a clockmaker, featured automata at his Soiréé fantastiques—but sometimes, like von Kempelen's Turk, these automata were illusions themselves. Ravel's fascinations with enchantment and mechanism converge in the presence of these trick machines. In the opera L'Enfant et les sortilèges (1925), Ravel uses techniques known to both magicians and cognitive neuroscientists, exploiting the aural equivalent of an afterimage and manipulating the spectator's attentional frames.

Abstract:
This thesis reconstructs the genre of urban satirical pamphleteering. It contends that the pamphlets of Robert Greene, Thomas Nashe, Thomas Dekker, Thomas Middleton, and Barnaby Rich are stylistically and generically akin. Writing in a relatively undefined form, these pamphleteers share an interest in describing contemporary London, and employ an experimental style characterised by its satirical energy. In addition, they negotiate a series of tensions between profitability and play. In the early modern period, ‘profit' was variously conceived as financial, moral, or rooted in public service. Pamphleteers attempted to reconcile these senses of profitability. At the same time, they produced playful works that are self-consciously mocking, that incorporate alternative perspectives, and that are generically hybrid. To varying degrees, urban satirical pamphlets can be defined in relation to the concepts of profitability and play. Chapter One introduces the concept of moral profitability through an examination of Elizabethan moralistic pamphlets. In particular, it analyses the anxious response to profitability contained in Philip Stubbes's Anatomie of Abuses (1583). Chapter Two argues that Greene disrupted appeals to totalising profitability, and instead demonstrated the alternative potential of play. Chapter Three examines Nashe's notoriously evasive pamphlets, contending that he embraced play in response to the potential profitlessness of pamphleteering. Chapter Four argues that although Dekker and Middleton rejected absolutist notions of profitability, their pamphlets redirect stylistic play towards compassionate social commentary. Finally, Chapter Five explores Rich's relocation of moralistic conventions in pamphlets that are presented as both honest and mocking. Taken as a whole, this thesis re-evaluates the style and genre of urban satirical pamphleteering. It reveals that this frequently overlooked literary form was deeply invested in defining and critiquing the purpose of literature.

Abstract:
Des robots sociaux tels que Pepper sont déjà présents "dans la nature". Leur comportements sont adaptés à chaque cas d'usage par des experts. Permettre au grand public d'enseigner de nouveaux comportements pourrait mener à une meilleure adaptation à moindre coût. Dans cette thèse nous étudions un système cognitif et des comportements robotiques permettant à des utilisateurs de Pepper à domicile de composer de nouveaux comportements à partir de comportements existants, par le langage parlé. Les domiciles sont des mondes ouverts qui ne peuvent pas être prédéterminés. Pepper doit donc, en plus d'apprendre de nouveaux comportements, être capable de découvrir son environnement, et de s'y rendre utile ou de divertir : c'est un scénario riche. L'enseignement de comportements que nous démontrons s'effectue donc dans ces conditions uniques : par le seul langage parlé, dans des scénarios riches et ouverts, et sur un robot Pepper standard. Grâce à la transcription automatique de la parole et au traitement automatique du langage, notre système reconnaît les enseignements de comportement que nous n'avions pas prédéterminés. Les nouveaux comportements peuvent solliciter des entités qui auraient été appris dans d'autres contextes, pour les accepter et s'en servir comme paramètres. Par des expériences de complexité croissante, nous montrons que des conflits entre les comportements apparaissent dans les scénarios riches, et proposons de les résoudre à l'aide de planification de tâche et de règles de priorités. Nos résultats reposent sur des méthodes qualitatives et quantitatives et soulignent les limitations de notre solution, ainsi que les nouvelles applications qu'elle rend possible
Social robots like Pepper are already found "in the wild". Their behaviors must be adapted for each use case by experts. Enabling the general public to teach new behaviors to robots may lead to better adaptation at lesser cost. In this thesis, we study a cognitive system and a set of robotic behaviors allowing home users of Pepper robots to teach new behaviors as a composition of existing behaviors, using solely the spoken language. Homes are open worlds and are unpredictable. In open scenarios, a home social robot should learn about its environment. The purpose of such a robot is not restricted to learning new behaviors or about the environment: it should provide entertainment or utility, and therefore support rich scenarios. We demonstrate the teaching of behaviors in these unique conditions: the teaching is achieved by the spoken language on Pepper robots deployed in homes, with no extra device and using its standard system, in a rich and open scenario. Using automatic speech transcription and natural language processing, our system recognizes unpredicted teachings of new behaviors, and a explicit requests to perform them. The new behaviors may invoke existing behaviors parametrized with objects learned in other contexts, and may be defined as parametric. Through experiments of growing complexity, we show conflicts between behaviors in rich scenarios, and propose a solution based on symbolic task planning and priorization rules to resolve them. The results rely on qualitative and quantitative analysis and highlight the limitations of our solution, but also the new applications it enables

Every day, adversaries bombard Department of Defense computer networks with scanning traffic in order to gather information about the target network. This reconnaissance is typically a precursor to attacks designed to access data, exfiltrate information, or plant malware in order to gain a military advantage. One specific reconnaissance tool, traceroute, is used to map the network topology of a target network. We implement an active network defense tool, dubbed DeTracer, that seeks to thwart network mapping attacks through the use of deception. We deploy DeTracer in several environments, including the Internet, to demonstrate that an attacker attempting to map a target network using traceroute probes can be presented with a false network topology of the defender’s choosing. Our experiments show that a defender can present an adversary with a credible false network topology. We are able to deceive all types of incoming traceroute probes, present a complex false network topology on a per source and destination basis, and deploy our deception scheme without disrupting service to the real production infrastructure on our network.

Abstract:
Roberto Sebastian Matta Echaurren, artista chileno surrealista, se conoce principalmente por su trabajo pictórico. Hoy, con la presente tesis se desea mostrar, explorar, investigar y deducir cómo este artista plástico principalmente pictórico, encuentra en el grabado un camino paralelo en el desarrollo de su obra, un camino bastante desconocido hasta este momento. La tesis que se presenta parte desde los inicios de su vida y relata el transcurso en ella. Ya que todos estos factores históricos y personales son los que nos ayudarán a conocer y comprender quién es Roberto Sebastian Matta Echaurren, un artista que nunca se consideró chileno, un artista universal y un pintor al que nunca se le consideró grabador, a pesar de la cantidad y calidad de su obra gráfica. Estas últimas ideas se expresan y se exponen en profundidad posteriormente dentro de la presente tesis. Luego, la investigación presenta una explicación del por qué es el título "Visiones e influencias de un grabador desconocido" para así poder vislumbrar cómo Matta entiende y vive el arte. Y lo más relevante cómo Matta descubre el grabado, dónde, cómo, cuándo, y por qué desea expresarse en esta área artística. Y se enuncia algo muy relevante que son los reconocidos ¿atelieres¿ de grabado en los que Matta eligió trabajar. Posteriormente se indican los dos atelieres más significativos donde trabajó Matta que son: Atelier George Visat - Albert Dupont y Atelier Fernand Mourlot ¿ Frank Bordas, haciendo un énfasis en la relación de Roberto Matta y Frank Bordas ya que es a partir de esta relación y los datos que nos entregaron las fuentes directas que podremos entender y comprender cómo Matta ve el grabado. Todo lo descrito son las bases que nos guiarán a un segmento esencial de esta tesis que es el capítulo titulado ¿Pintura y Grabado". Dentro de este capítulo veremos la pintura de Matta, su obra finalizada y su proceso dentro de ella. Con el resultado de toda esta información, hacemos un paralelo pictórico y gráfico, siendo lo fundamental establecer y esclarecer si existe o no una relación entre la pintura y el grabado de Roberto Matta. La catalogación de los grabados es el núcleo de la presente tesis, siendo el primer catálogo técnico de la obra de Matta, a pesar de que esta tesis se comenzó hace mas de 5 años, aún no existe un catálogo técnico y razonado completo de su obra. Hoy se presenta un catálogo más completo que los existentes aunque no se posee aún la totalidad de su obra. Posteriormente a la catalogación de sus grabados se presenta un análisis y comentarios para comprender la obra gráfica de este artista, en ella se eligen por grado de relevancia, a nivel histórico, personal o plástico seis obras gráficas, que son: The New School, Hom¿mere, El verbo hommerica, El gran Burundi-burunda ha muerto, Don Q y Ubu Roi. Para finalizar se ha considerado interesante presentar una cronología de la vida y obra de Roberto Matta que estarán unidas a los hechos históricos chilenos y mundiales para darnos un contexto político y social importante que se ve reflejado en las obras plásticas del artista. Deseo mencionar que las ¿Visiones e influencias de un grabador desconocido¿ no es una investigación completa ni acabada, ya que, la finalización de este trabajo fue truncado por una integrante relevante de la familia del artista, no obstante se logra presentar casi un 80% de su trabajo gráfico. Siendo esta tesis el destape hacia esa parte que el artista escondía y protegía como un secreto y de la cual actualmente solo conocemos fragmentos para su comercialización. Posteriormente a la primera revision de la presente tesis por los investigadores externos, se han realizado ciertos cambios, uno es sobre la presentacion del grafico familiar y de la presentacion de las fichas, todos los cambios son a nivel grafico de la presente tesis. Finalmente aquí esta!, se la presento hoy ¿Visiones e influencias para un grabador desconocido¿ un trabajo contra el miedo, contra el olvido, contra el secreto.

Abstract:
The Germans of Geilenkirchen-Hengesburg region of Germany were convinced by relative and friend, Father Peter Leonard Thevis, of the Archdiocese of New Orleans, to emigrate to the United States for a number of reasons: political, religious, and economic. After establishing themselves on land previously used for grazing cattle, the Germans soon discovered rice could easily be cultivated in large amounts. Along with their success as rice farmers in Roberts Cove, Louisiana, these Germans soon involved themselves in politics and engaged one another and the surrounding community in numerous court cases. These court cases, overlooked by previous historians, demonstrate that the Germans of Roberts Cove had begun to assimilate, prior to World War I and the passage of anti-German legislation.

Abstract:
AbstractThe changing climate and water availability strongly affect the current state of agricultural production. While the global temperature rises, the occurrence of extreme climatic conditions becomes erratic. This current scenario has driven the development of rice varieties and cultivation practices that require less water and favor mechanization. Although puddled transplanted rice has been more widely used in the past, direct seeding has been gaining popularity in recent years, especially due to its water- and labor-saving features. This technique allows full crop establishment from seeds that were directly sown in the field, thus avoiding puddling, transplanting, and maintaining standing water. Consequently, it offers promising positive environmental effects including decreasing the release of greenhouse gases and increasing water-use efficiency. Historically, rice varieties bred for transplanting are also used in direct seeding, which limits the maximum yield potential of field trials. The success of direct seeding relies strongly on the development of rice varieties with robust crop establishment. Anaerobic germination, seed longevity, and early seedling vigor are the key traits required to achieve this. This chapter expounds on the physiology, molecular mechanisms, genetics, and relevance of the enumerated traits for direct seeding. A brief discussion of breeding for rice varieties with improved germination under direct seeding is also provided.

Abstract:
AbstractGlobal warming has emerged as a major challenge to development and human wellbeing in Sub-Saharan Africa in general and Nigeria in particular. Periodic incidents show that this challenge will continue and increase in impact on all aspects of natural resources – agriculture, ecosystems services, biodiversity depletion, environmental degradation and human health. Recognizing the enormous potential of underutilized plant genetic resources (PGRs) is crucial as sources of solutions to a number of these threatening challenges emanating from climate change (food and nutrition insecurity, genetic erosion, loss of agro-biodiversity, green job growth and income generation) cannot be over-emphasized. Sphenostylis stenocarpa (Hochst. ex. A. Rich) Harms., commonly known as African yam bean (AYB) belonging to the leguminous Fabaceae, is an underutilized PGR with rich portfolio which could serve as vital source of robust adaption and resilient germplasm for vulnerable local communities in Nigeria. Its substantial nutritional, environmental, cultural, social, medicinal, industrial and soil restorative potentials underpins its position as climate – smart species. Enhancing the potentials of African yam bean via robust innovative approaches for wider utilization through accelerated research, farmer seed exchanges, in-situ and ex-situ conservations, farmers selection, and policy programs such as seed sovereignty will accentuate its adaptation and used as resilient climate –smart species for the vulnerable groups in Nigeria to cushion impact of climate change.

Abstract:
Chapter 3 follows Robert Huntington during the decade he spent in Syria (1671–81), piecing together one of the most extensive collections of oriental manuscripts to come into Europe before the nineteenth century. It describes the changed circumstances in Aleppo since Edward Pococke’s years in the city: the more extensive presence of European (particularly French) collectors. It then surveys Huntington’s work on behalf of a community of English scholars, reconstructing a network of correspondents – from Syria, to Cyprus, to Iraq – which Huntington exploited in his quest for books. This section develops the theme of the working relationships between European collectors and local scholars, charting Huntington’s epistolary exchanges with the Maronite patriarch of Antioch, Isṭifān al-Duwayhī, and the Samaritan scribe, Marhib ben Jacob. It also points to English scholars’ reliance on the longer-established Roman Catholic missions, here exemplified by Huntington’s attempts to secure books and information on the Mandaeans through Carmelite missionaries in Basra. Following Huntington and his books back to England, a concluding discussion describes the sale of Huntington’s library and Huntington’s own career prospects after ten years’ service to English scholarship in Syria. It ends with an assessment of English collectors’ achievements by the end of the seventeenth century.

Abstract:
‘Why are some countries rich and others poor?’ considers various theories of economic growth, including Robert Solow’s widely used 1956 model, and charts the uneven development of countries around the world from the late nineteenth century, through the twentieth century, and into the twenty-first century. Some countries, such as Japan and South Korea, have seen miraculous economic growth, whereas countries such as Argentina and Uruguay have not experienced expected levels of growth. The factors that affect development trajectories include natural resource endowments, geography, history, institutions, politics, and power. While overall levels of poverty have declined, levels of inequality are rising in almost all countries.

Full text
Abstract:
The transformations which took place in the urban environment during the Victorian period gave the public space of towns and cities new meanings, and Terry Wyke’s essay on Sir Robert Peel, examines how political lives and reputations were shaped by the commemorative culture of public portrait statues and busts. Peel's death in 1850 and his subsequent memorializatiom marked the start of a significant trend in public life, expressed in the commissioning of outdoor portrait statues to celebrate prominent local and national figures. Peel's image, 'forged' by the contemporary press, was absorbed by a broader Liberal bourgeois narrative in cities like Manchester, as a public statement of the reputation and achievements of the Anti-Corn Law League, with which Peel was so strongly associated. Such portraiture, replete with political symbolism, played an important part in defining a new civic landscape in the Victorian period, a material narrative of political life that had been largely forgotten by the second half of the twentieth century, although it remains a rich source of evidence deserving of greater attention.

Abstract:
The research project “Beethovens Werkstatt” is intended as a contribution to basic musicological research. Methods, concepts and digital components developed in this project using the example of Beethoven are meant to be transferable to other composers. In my paper, I choose Robert Schumann as an example to test this transferability. Concepts that were developed in the course of the first module of “Beethovens Werkstatt” aim at the reconstruction and digital representation of genetic variants. They are based on research on the composer’s work processes. Fundamental aspects of this research include, for example, the temporality of the writing process; the composer’s self-critical dialogue with what he has already written; the work routines that may lie behind it (can certain compositional strategies be derived from them?). These questions are not only specific to Beethoven. They can generally be asked in connection with other composers. However, a prerequisite for an insightful research is a good record of handwritten texts and manuscripts. Due to the rich source material and Schumann’s habit of documenting many details in his diaries and working manuscripts, a text-genetic and digital analysis of his working methods is particularly suitable.

Abstract:
Glycoprotein Ib (GPIb) mediates von Willebrand factor-dependent platelet adhesion and participates in the resulting platelet activation process. In the present investigation, the primary structure of human platelet GPIb was studied. GPIb and its proteolytic fragment glycocalicin were purified to near homogeneity from human platelets by affinity chromatography using wheat germ agglutinin and anti-GPIb monoclonal antibody (D. Nugent, University of Washington) coupled to Sepharose. GPIba chain, β chain, and glycocalicin were isolated, reduced and carboxymethylated, and then fragmented by trypsin and S. aureus V8 protease. Peptides were isolated by HPLC and subjected to amino acid sequence analysis. Approximately 200 amino acid residues were identified. Affinity purified rabbit antibodies directed against the a chain, the ft chain, and glycocalicin were prepared and shown to be monospecific by Western blot analysis. Total RNA was prepared from human erythroleukemia cells grown in the presence of phorbol acetate. Poly(A)+ RNA was selected and used to prepare a cDNA library in λgt11. The library was screened with [125]I-labeled polyclonal antibody to glycocalicin. The clone with the largest cDNA insert was sequenced and shown to code for amino acid sequences corresponding to those determined by Edman degradation of glycocalicin. The predicted amino acid sequence contains at least six tandem repeats of 24 amino acids that are highly homologous with 13 repeats present in leucine rich α2 glycoprotein of human plasma. Another region in the protein contains a second repeat rich in threonine and serine, which shows some homology to a 9 amino acid repeat in the connecting region of human factor V. This region is probably the major site of attachment of clusters of O-linked carbohydrate in GPIbα. These results indicate that human platelet glycoprotein Ibα has a multi-domain structure composed of a number of repetitive sequences.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Applying intelligent robot arms in dynamic uncertain environments (i.e., flexible production lines) remains challenging, which requires efficient algorithms for real time trajectory generation. The motion planning problem for robot trajectory generation is highly nonlinear and nonconvex, which usually comes with collision avoidance constraints, robot kinematics and dynamics constraints, and task constraints (e.g., following a Cartesian trajectory defined on a surface and maintain the contact). The nonlinear and nonconvex planning problem is computationally expensive to solve, which limits the application of robot arms in the real world. In this paper, for redundant robot arm planning problems with complex constraints, we present a motion planning method using iterative convex optimization that can efficiently handle the constraints and generate optimal trajectories in real time. The proposed planner guarantees the satisfaction of the contact-rich task constraints and avoids collision in confined environments. Extensive experiments on trajectory generation for weld grinding are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method and its applicability in advanced robotic manufacturing.

Full text
Abstract:
In the last decade, African authorities and the international community have called for support to increase taxation capacity in order to reduce reliance on aid flows. This commitment to support tax administrations was reflected in the 2015 Addis Tax Initiative (ATI), which advocated ‘to double assistance to developing countries in order to strengthen their tax systems and administrations’ by the year 2020 (IMF 2017: 6). Increasing domestic resource mobilisation is even more salient for state-building in fragile states, in terms of providing costly services to citizens, including security, across national territory. There is a rich literature (Acemoglu and Robinson 2012; Besley and Persson 2009) arguing that robust and inclusive fiscal institutions are essential for state-building and economic growth. This is not the situation in fragile states.

Downes, Jane, ed. Chalcolithic and Bronze Age Scotland: ScARF Panel Report. Society for Antiquaries of Scotland, September 2012. http://dx.doi.org/10.9750/scarf.09.2012.184.

Full text
Abstract:
The main recommendations of the panel report can be summarised under five key headings:  Building the Scottish Bronze Age: Narratives should be developed to account for the regional and chronological trends and diversity within Scotland at this time. A chronology Bronze Age Scotland: ScARF Panel Report iv based upon Scottish as well as external evidence, combining absolute dating (and the statistical modelling thereof) with re-examined typologies based on a variety of sources – material cultural, funerary, settlement, and environmental evidence – is required to construct a robust and up to date framework for advancing research.  Bronze Age people: How society was structured and demographic questions need to be imaginatively addressed including the degree of mobility (both short and long-distance communication), hierarchy, and the nature of the ‘family’ and the ‘individual’. A range of data and methodologies need to be employed in answering these questions, including harnessing experimental archaeology systematically to inform archaeologists of the practicalities of daily life, work and craft practices.  Environmental evidence and climate impact: The opportunity to study the effects of climatic and environmental change on past society is an important feature of this period, as both palaeoenvironmental and archaeological data can be of suitable chronological and spatial resolution to be compared. Palaeoenvironmental work should be more effectively integrated within Bronze Age research, and inter-disciplinary approaches promoted at all stages of research and project design. This should be a two-way process, with environmental science contributing to interpretation of prehistoric societies, and in turn, the value of archaeological data to broader palaeoenvironmental debates emphasised. Through effective collaboration questions such as the nature of settlement and land-use and how people coped with environmental and climate change can be addressed.  Artefacts in Context: The Scottish Chalcolithic and Bronze Age provide good evidence for resource exploitation and the use, manufacture and development of technology, with particularly rich evidence for manufacture. Research into these topics requires the application of innovative approaches in combination. This could include biographical approaches to artefacts or places, ethnographic perspectives, and scientific analysis of artefact composition. In order to achieve this there is a need for data collation, robust and sustainable databases and a review of the categories of data.  Wider Worlds: Research into the Scottish Bronze Age has a considerable amount to offer other European pasts, with a rich archaeological data set that includes intact settlement deposits, burials and metalwork of every stage of development that has been the subject of a long history of study. Research should operate over different scales of analysis, tracing connections and developments from the local and regional, to the international context. In this way, Scottish Bronze Age studies can contribute to broader questions relating both to the Bronze Age and to human society in general.

Walsh, Alex. The Contentious Politics of Tunisia’s Natural Resource Management and the Prospects of the Renewable Energy Transition. Institute of Development Studies (IDS), February 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/k4d.2021.048.

Full text
Abstract:
For many decades in Tunisia, there has been a robust link between natural resource management and contentious national and local politics. These disputes manifest in the form of protests, sit-ins, the disruption of production and distribution and legal suits on the one hand, and corporate and government response using coercive and concessionary measures on the other. Residents of resource-rich areas and their allies protest the inequitable distribution of their local natural wealth and the degradation of their health, land, water, soil and air. They contest a dynamic that tends to bring greater benefit to Tunisia’s coastal metropolitan areas. Natural resource exploitation is also a source of livelihoods and the contentious politics around them have, at times, led to somewhat more equitable relationships. The most important actors in these contentious politics include citizens, activists, local NGOs, local and national government, international commercial interests, international NGOs and multilateral organisations. These politics fit into wider and very longstanding patterns of wealth distribution in Tunisia and were part of the popular alienation that drove the uprising of 2011. In many ways, the dynamic of the contentious politics is fundamentally unchanged since prior to the uprising and protests have taken place within the same month of writing of this paper. Looking onto this scene, commentators use the frame of margins versus centre (‘marginalization’), and also apply the lens of labour versus capital. If this latter lens is applied, not only is there continuity from prior to 2011, there is continuity with the colonial era when natural resource extraction was first industrialised and internationalised. In these ways, the management of Tunisia’s natural wealth is a significant part of the country’s serious political and economic challenges, making it a major factor in the street politics unfolding at the time of writing.
