Money is central to capitalism and its sustainability crises. This article argues that it is not money itself, but its internal design and governance – how it is created, distributed, and governed – that drives inequality, ecological degradation, and unsustainable growth. Yet, money’s architecture is not fixed; it can be reimagined to foster fairer, greener economies.Approaching money as a socio-t

We study school switches in which students who have already been assigned seats requestreassignment. Unlike in regular school choice, stability need not be legally binding in suchprograms, since students’ priority-based claims have already been satisfied upstream. Effi-ciency then naturally becomes the primary design objective. To quantify the potential legalefficiency gains, we compare Deferred A
This paper investigates whether cultural gender norms about occupations, defi ned as asociety’s perception of what is appropriate work for men and women, contribute to persis-tent gender-stereotypical occupational choice. Using large-scale international survey dataand high-quality administrative records, I study whether second-generation immigrant men(women) are less likely to work in an occupation
Public spaces are increasingly becoming battlegrounds over collective identity, associeties revisit which figures deserve commemoration. The removal of statues andstreet names has become a powerful symbolic act, as for those attached to theselegacies, such changes may be seen as denying their group identity. This paperexamines the political consequences of such symbolic changes in the context of S
Background/Objectives: Empowered mothers are more likely to adopt recommended childcare practices, thereby contributing to reduced childhood undernutrition. However, the magnitude of the association between maternal empowerment and childhood undernutrition in Bangladesh has not been comprehensively assessed. This study aims to address this research gap. Methods: The Bangladesh Demographic and Heal
Detta konstnärliga forskningsprojekt introducerar begreppet flerspråkig tystnad för att beskriva den artificiella enspråkighet som präglar många sammanhang där nationella majoritetsspråk eller engelska dominerar, trots faktisk språklig mångfald. Expositionen tar sin utgångspunkt i utvecklingen och iscensättningen av föreställningen SILENCE (Post Theatre Collective, Helsingfors 2025), där en internThis artistic research project introduces the concept of multilingual silence to describe the artificial monolingualism that characterizes many contexts in which national majority languages or English dominate, despite actual linguistic diversity. The exposition takes as its point of departure the development and staging of the performance SILENCE (Post Theatre Collective, Helsinki 2025), in which
In recent years the treatment of cancer with radioactive drugs, here termed molecular radiotherapy (MRT), has emerged to take a place alongside other treatment modalities, particularly non-radioactive drugs (NRDs) and external beam radiotherapy (EBRT). A purpose-built tool was developed within the Python programming environment to review the evolution of clinical trials performed in the first quar
This chapter aims to provide an introductory account of conceptions of natural rights in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. That is, of how human beings were considered to hold certain rights by virtue of their human nature or as conferred by natural law. It will show how conceptions of natural rights differed, as embedded in different theoretical frameworks, and were put to different politi
This essential primary-source reader brings together documents collected over decades of research into security agency tradecraft and Chinese Cold War-era human intelligence. Michael Schoenhals' expert translation of the texts teases out meanings from memoranda, decodes marginal notes from senior officers, and unpacks the hastily scribbled communications of covert human assets. Together, these sou
Purpose: Genital malformations are increasingly recognized when a VACTERL is present, but remain insufficiently described in children with esophageal atresia (EA). This study aimed to determine the prevalence and spectrum of genital and urinary tract malformations in children with EA, and to describe associated morbidity, need for additional surgery, and association with Gross classification. Meth
This article examines gender and cultural sense-making in relation to perfumesand their packaging. Gendered meanings of seduction, choice, consumption andtaste are brought to the fore with the use of go-along interviews with consumers inperfume stores. Meeting luxury packages in this feminized environment made theinterviewed women speak of bottles as objects to fall in love with and they described
Fashion bloggers In the mid 2000s, the fashion blogger appeared as a new media figure. The young women who wrote about fashion, shopping, and private lives aroused rapid criticism from the established media because of their huge impact. The emergence of fashion, beauty - and shopping blogging is a further development of a culturally defined combination between femininity and consumption that is bo
This article focuses on labour processes among workers in retail in Sweden. It is a study of the commodification of body and affect in a field organized around commercial exchange and builds on participant observations in stores and thirty interviews with workers in different fields of retail (fashion, perfume, home electronic and diy-stores). Retailing is a part of the service economy that is sig
I 2018 års regleringsbrev fick Naturvårdsverket i uppdrag att genomföra informationsinsatser för att höja kunskapsnivåerna hos svenska konsumenter om en mer hållbar konsumtion av textilier. Insatser som genomförs inom uppdraget ska omfatta konsumenters kunskap om textiliers miljö- och hälsopåverkan i alla led i värdekedjan. Arbetet genomförs i samarbete med Konsumentverket och Kemikalieinspektione
The pursuit of a unifying theory for non-BCS superconductivity has faced significant challenges. One approach to overcome such challenges is to perform systematic investigations into superconductors containing d-electron metals in order to elucidate their underlying mechanisms. Recently, the Sc6MTe2 (M = d-electron metal) family has emerged as a unique series of isostructural compounds exhibiting
The exploration of tunable superconductivity in strongly correlated electron systems is a central pursuit in condensed matter physics, with implications for both fundamental understanding and potential applications. The Laves phase CeRu2, a pyrochlore compound, exhibits a three-dimensional (3D) kagome lattice type geometry giving rise to flat bands and degenerate Dirac points, where band structure
Identifying high-temperature unconventional charge order and superconductivity in kagome systems is crucial for understanding frustrated, correlated electrons and enabling future quantum technologies. Here, we report that the kagome superconductor YRu3Si2 hosts an exceptional interplay of charge order, magnetism, and superconductivity, revealed through a comprehensive suite of muon spin rotation (
