Right Relation to Tobacco: De-commercialization and Reverence
Authors: Hendlin Yogi Hale
Published: February 2024

The much-maligned plant tobacco has been exploited to kill more people than any other plant, with yearly tobacco deaths exceeding eight million globally, or in ten years killing more people than in World War II. Tobacco counts among the poisons of the world, like opium, those plants made into alcohol, coca, and other drugs that have been extracted and impelled into addictive economies based on dependency. Yet, for indigenous peoples with many millennia of relationship with tobacco, the herb is regarded as a sacrament, a reminder of humility, a source of connection with communities beyond oneself. Juxtaposing traditional versus colonial tobacco use, I locate biocultural mechanisms which have led to such divergent human and ecological impacts of collaborating with versus instrumentalizing this plant. Sharing my personal history with tobacco as both a tobacco control researcher and a student of indigenous tobacco ways, I explore how tobacco can be understood as a metonymic plant for critical plant studies and human relations with the wider plant world through invoking the hermeneutic aspect of the medical and alchemical pharmakon. I interpret the pharmakon as a general framework for investigating onto-ethical-epistemological vegetalities.
Introducing Textual Measures of Central Bank Policy-Linkages Using ChatGPT
Authors: Leek Lauren Caroline , Bischl Simeon , Freier Maximilian
Published: February 2024

While institutionally independent, monetary policy-makers do not operate in a vacuum. The policy choices of a central bank are intricately linked to government policies and financial markets. We present novel indices of monetary, fiscal and financial policy-linkages based on central bank communication, namely, speeches by 118 central banks worldwide from 1997 to mid-2023. Our indices measure not only instances of monetary, fiscal or financial dominance but, importantly, also identify communication that aims to coordinate monetary policy with the government and financial markets. To create our indices, we use a Large Language Model (ChatGPT 3.5-0301) and provide transparent prompt-engineering steps, considering both accuracy on the basis of a manually coded dataset as well as efficiency regarding token usage. We also test several model improvements and provide descriptive statistics of the trends of the indices over time and across central banks including correlations with political-economic variables.

Authors: Hämäläinen Hans , Tanskanen Antti O , Arpino Bruno , Abuladze Liili , Solé-Auró Aïda , Danielsbacka Mirkka
Published: February 2024

Background and ObjectivesVolunteering is an important dimension of successful aging. Although prior studies have found that personal resources such as health and financial situations are associated with volunteering, there is a lack of research exploring the relationship between resource changes and volunteering. Here, we investigated whether changes in individuals’ resources were associated with volunteer engagement among older Europeans.Research Design and MethodsUsing data from the Survey of Health, Aging, and Retirement in Europe, collected in five waves between 2011 and 2020 across 19 countries (57,410 observations from 17,498 individuals aged 50 and above), we employed asymmetric fixed-effect ordinal regression to investigate whether positive or negative resource changes were associated with the frequency of volunteering over time. We used three resource indicators: health, financial condition, and time availability (measured by engagement in paid work, grandparenting, and family care).ResultsHealth deterioration and worsening financial condition were associated with a decreased frequency of volunteering. A transition out of weekly paid work and beginning to provide weekly grandchild care were associated with an increased frequency of volunteering. We did not detect any further significant effects of resource changes on volunteering.Discussion and ImplicationsOur study revealed asymmetrical associations between changes in resources and volunteering, providing new insights into their interplay. The results deepen our understanding of successful aging by emphasizing the need to consider the dynamics of all resources that either facilitate or hinder active engagements among older adults.
Gendered devaluation underlies faculty retention
Authors: Spoon Katie , Mendy Joanna , Martinez Maria , Galesic Mirta , Larremore Daniel , Clauset Aaron , Rivera Lauren A.
Published: February 2024

Women faculty experience academia differently from men in many ways, which can lead them to consider leaving their positions. Using a large-scale survey of 10,071 current and former tenure-track and tenured faculty, representing nearly all U.S. PhD-granting institutions and 29 diverse fields of study, we show that perceived workplace climate is the most gendered aspect of faculty life, compared to stress related to research pressures, work-life balance, and departmental support. Further, analyzing 6,615 free-text responses from the same respondents reveals that devaluation, both in formal evaluations and informal interactions, is the most gendered workplace climate factor. These patterns are especially salient among women of color and tenured women. Women report that devaluation is exacerbated when institutional leadership fails to respond to devaluation, leading many to leave their jobs. Our results highlight that successful remedies must involve organizational change rather than solely individual solutions.
The Nexus of Open Science and Innovation: Insights from Patent Citations
Authors: Maddi Abdelghani
Published: February 2024

This paper aims to analyze the extent to which inventive activity relies on open science. In other words, it investigates whether inventors utilize Open Access (OA) publications more than subscription-based ones, especially given that some inventors may lack institutional access. To achieve this, we utilized the (Marx, 2023) database, which contains citations of patents to scientific publications (Non-Patent References - NPRs). We focused on publications closely related to invention, specifically those cited solely by inventors within the body of patent texts. Our dataset was supplemented by OpenAlex data. The final sample comprised 961,104 publications cited in patents, of which 861,720 had a DOI. Results indicate that across all disciplines, OA publications are 38% more prevalent in patent citations (NPRs) than in the overall OpenAlex database. In biology and medicine, inventors use 73% and 27% more OA publications, respectively, compared to closed-access ones. Chemistry and computer science are also disciplines where OA publications are more frequently utilized in patent contexts than subscription-based ones.
Selective Development Goals: Examining Japan’s SDG Implementation Gaps
Authors: Christensen Paul , SturtzSreetharan Cindi , Crabtree Charles , McClean Charles T.
Published: February 2024

In this paper, we consider how efforts by the Japanese government and private sector to make the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) prominent and pervasive reveal obfuscation around issues and concerns purportedly being addressed. We examine three specific components of the SDGs: No Poverty, Zero Hunger, and Gender Equality. In doing so, we demonstrate a disjuncture between official proclamations endorsing an SDG agenda and ethnographic observations that illustrate the hollowness of these efforts. We argue that the SDGs, a repository of lofty and aspirational goals, many of which are arguably necessary for planetary health and collective well-being, are used by the Japanese government as an instrument of techno-political affect to obscure root causes of persistent societal issues. The result of which nurtures and permits and perhaps sustains insufficient social, political, and structural changes throughout Japan.
“Part of the Team”: In-House Sports Reporters Navigating the Journalistic Periphery
Authors: Perreault Gregory P , Nölleke Daniel , Crawford Monica , Hackett Ella
Published: February 2024

In recent years, the sports communication landscape has seen changes in terms of who occupies the role of sports reporter. In-house reporters, or sports communicators employed by specific clubs, teams, or leagues, now contribute content to the sports media landscape. This study explores the complicated relationship between in-house reporters’ self-perceived professional identities andin-houses reporters’ perceptions of their audiences through the lens of Bourdieusian field theory. As such, it sees in-house reporters as peripheral actors negotiating the boundaries of the sports journalism field. Through semi-structured interviews with 28 in-house sports reporters from the United States and Austria, our findings suggest that in-house reporters conceive of themselves bothin relation to professional journalism and as members of the sports establishment. Furthermore, they note an ambiguous relationship to their audience, which is both reliant upon the reporters’ work, and, at times, highly critical of it.
More money, more effect? Employment effects of job search programs in Veneto
Authors: Junquera Álvaro F.
Published: February 2024

Despite being widely regarded as effective labor market interventions, the impact of job search programs on employment remains contested. Recent research challenges the assumption that the intensity of such programs is directly related with its effectiveness. We evaluate the effects of two treatments of an Italian active labour market program called Assegno per il Lavoro. Each intervention is made up of a voucher to fund job search assistance and a performance-based payment related to job search brokerage. Participants are assigned to a certain group with a certain treatment endowment that is increasing in function of a scoring variable. Leveraging this design, we applied a regression discontinuity analysis to estimate effects on the employment quantity and on the employment quality. We found null effects on the average of worked days for the two treatment comparisons, with transient small effects during the first year for the high endowment. Significant increases of approximately one month were observed at the median of the distribution for certain semesters, but later the effects fade away. This is the first paper studying the effect of the intensity of job search actions on employment in a European context. The main policy implication is a shift from a focus on intensity to a focus on other design elements.
Editorial Policy as Conversation Aid
Authors: Meardon Stephen
Published: February 2024

The avowed challenges of editing the JHET during the years 2013-2018 included maintaining the journal’s broad historiographical embrace and protesting the ubiquitous references to 2-year impact factors as a measure of its scholarly relevance. The greater challenge, which the editor took up by habitude more than deliberation, was bringing authors representing a variety of contents, methods, and historical and social values into meaningful conversation with each other. It amounted to editorial policy as a scholarly conversation aid. It should be applied more deliberately.
Occupational Characteristics and Fertility Delays: Exploring the Link Between Women’s Employment and Childbearing in the Post-Recession United States
Authors: Burke Kristen Lagasse
Published: February 2024

Understanding the link between women’s employment and childbearing is essential to evaluate how gendered work and family structures affect individuals’ fertility trajectories and, consequently, population-level trends. Data challenges have limited analyses of the antecedents to parenthood during the 2010s, a period of declining birth rates in the US. This study introduces and evaluates longitudinal data from the Current Population Survey as a novel tool for studying predictors of fertility and combines it with occupational information to examine how young adult women’s employment characteristics shape their likelihood of becoming mothers between 2013 and 2018. Employment itself does not hinder parenthood, but working in high work-family conflict occupations reduces the likelihood of motherhood. This association is not attributable to selecting occupations based on fertility expectations. As birth rates continue to decline, promoting work-family policies may reduce fertility delays.
ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF EXCHANGE RATE ECONOMICS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO: 1892-1992
Authors: Edwards Sebastián
Published: February 2024

In this paper I analyze the work on exchange rates and external imbalances by University of Chicago faculty members during the university’s first hundred years, 1892-1992. Many people associate Chicago’s views with Milton Friedman’s advocacy for flexible exchange rates. But, of course, there was much more than that, including the work of J. Laurence Laughlin on bimetallism, Jacob Viner on the balance of payments, Lloyd Metzler on transfers, Harry Johnson on trade and currencies, Lloyd Mints on exchange rate regimes, Robert Mundell on optimal currency areas, and Arnold Harberger on shadow exchange rates, among other. The analysis shows that, although different scholars emphasized different issues, there was a common thread in this research, anchored on the role of relative prices’ changes during the adjustment process.
Exploring Economic Returns Across Rural-Serving Colleges
Authors: Islem Shadman , Boatman Angela
Published: February 2024

The authors explore the characteristics of rural-serving institutions (RSIs), and the relationship between rural-servingness of the institution and the subsequent earnings of its students, as well as the relationship between rural-servingness of the institution and a set of equitable value thresholds. They observe that the average RSI and high-RSI college is less selective and several thousand dollars cheaper than the average non-RSI. Additionally, the average time to degree is generally lower at these institutions. The authors find the RSIs are accessible, affordable, and offer a timely route to a degree, performing comparably to (and sometimes better than) non-RSIs. They also observe that rural-servingness is a statistically significant negative predictor of earnings (p<.001) after controlling for institutional and county-level characteristics, although the effect is small.

Published: February 2024

Desde los primeros reportes en la bibliografía, la nomenclatura de las lesiones quísticas hepatobiliares se ha ido modificando, habiéndose descripto dos tipos de lesiones: las serosas y las mucinosas. En 2010 la Organización Mundial de la Salud estableció una nueva clasificación donde los términos cistoadenomas y cistoadenocarcinomas hepatobiliares son reemplazados por entidades más específicas como la neoplasia mucinosa quística y los tumores quísticos intraductales (neoplasia papilar intraductal, neoplasma tubulopapilar intraductal y neoplasma oncocitico papilar).En cuanto a la neoplasia mucinosa quística, la presencia de estroma ovárico le confiere características distintivas en lo patológico y biológico, siendo esto un requisito en la clasificación de la OMS. Esta característica lo diferencia de los hamartomas biliares, los quistes congénitos y la enfermedad de Caroli.Dichas neoplasias son infrecuentes, con una incidencia menor al 5% de las lesiones quísticas hepáticas y ocurren casi exclusivamente en mujeres, frecuentemente perimenopáusicas. Su potencial de malignización ha sido descrito, siendo éste la indicación de tratamiento quirúrgico resectivo.Presentamos el caso clínico de una paciente portadora de una neoplasia quística mucinosa hepática, catalogada como cistoadenoma hepático según la antigua clasificación.

Authors: Zen Amrullah  , Hoddin Muhammad Sholeh , Belvage Rio Heykhal
Published: February 2024

Research on social change in a tarekat has been conducted by many researchers. However, the results of the research are still descriptive narrative. Therefore, this study focuses on changes in the value orientation of the behavior of Naqsyabandiyah Mudzhariyah adherents, a congregation that is widely adhered to by Madurese people, especially residents of Gersempal Omben Sampang village. As part of religious teachings, tarekat not only functions as a doctrine and dzikr ritual, but also as a social control that can shape people’s behavior. This research aims to obtain data about the Naqsyabandiyah Mudzhariyah tarekat which is influenced by the doctrine of the tarekat ‘s teachings. This research method is qualitative. Data collection techniques in this study used interviews, documentation, and observation. While for data analysis, researchers dialogued the data with the theory of Sufism and social behavior. The results of this study obtained aspects of religiosity of tarekat adherents grouped into four groups, namely the ideological dimension, the ritual dimension, the experience dimension, and the religious knowledge dimension. In addition, this study also produced findings of four social behaviors reflected in the behavior of Gersempal villagers as adherents of the Naqsyabandiyah Mudzhariyah order. 1). Ascetic orientation reflected in work ethic behavior. 2) Al-Ta’awun value orientation which is manifested in helping behavior. 3) Futuwwah value orientation, which is reflected in giving behavior, and 4). Transcendental communication which is reflected in silaturrahmi behavior. These four behaviors are the result of the accumulation of the Tarekat doctrine.
THE PARADOX OF MUSLIM IDENTITY REPRESENTATION IN COMEDIC CONTENT: A NETNOGRAPHIC STUDY OF STEREOTYPES OF MUSLIM WOMEN ON INSTAGRAM
Authors: Tahir Muhammad , Agustin Riska Dwi , El-Rumi Umiarso
Published: February 2024

This article attempts to analyze gender stereotypes that portray Muslim women as subjects of ridicule and mockery on social media, especially on Instagram. These stereotypes depict Muslim women as arrogant, selfish, troublemakers, and unintelligent. Based on this focus, this research aims to interpret gender stereotypes on Instagram through the assimilation of comedic content. The study employs a qualitative approach with netnography to understand and interpret these dynamics. Research data is collected through content observation on Instagram and a review of previous studies. Data analysis is conducted using an interactive data analysis model. The research finds that gender stereotypes in the virtual space stem from paradigmatic social gender biases in the real world. These biases are used as material for designing comedic content on Instagram that mocks and ridicules Muslim women. The economic motives of Instagram account owners primarily drive stereotypes in the virtual space. The representation of Muslim identity depicted is far from gender consciousness. This situation creates a paradox between reinforcing the authenticity of Muslim women and the virtualization of their reality in various activities. Literacy and gender awareness based on the theological values of account owners offer a solution to address the paradox of Muslim identity representation.

Which factors of corporate governance influence the financial sustainability of non-bank financial institutions in Bangladesh? Panel data analysis by the PCSE estimator
Authors: Mazumder Manjurul Alam
Published: February 2024

In Bangladesh's financial industry, non-bank financial institutions (NBFIs) are essential players in addition to banks. To guarantee the sustainability of this industry, proper corporate governance is required. Corporate governance consists of various factors. The study provides new evidence on which factors of corporate governance influence the financial sustainability of non-bank financial institutions in Bangladesh. The researcher compiled the panel data for the period 2011-2022 from financial disclosures of sampled non-bank organizations. The researcher adopted key panel data techniques. Specifically, the panel corrected standard error (PCSE) estimator was employed to determine the factors influencing the corporate governance of non-bank financial institutions (NBFIs). The researcher assessed the data using the panel least squares, Hausman test, Wooldridge test, as well as the Breusch-Pagan/Cook-Weisberg test. The findings revealed that board independence, board activity intensity, audit committee size, and audit committee activity intensity play a significant role in reshaping corporate governance and achieving the financial sustainability of non-bank financial organizations. On the other hand, board size, board composition, board independence, audit committee independence, and gender variety are not found to be significant factors. Since there isn't much research in this area, the study seems to be highly valuable from an academic standpoint. The study's findings will assist the regulatory bodies in implementing suitable corporate governance in Bangladesh's non-banking financial sector.
Does the strength of women in the upper echelon influence earnings quality? The application of critical mass theory

Published: February 2024

Globally, several financial scandals were witnessed within the first decade of the 21st century that necessitated a robust corporate governance mechanism to improve financial reporting quality. Empirical evidence shows that men dominate the boards involved in these scandals. In an attempt to restore the confidence of stakeholders in the financial report, financial regulatory authorities in European Union economies recommend a well-constituted gender-diverse board where the marginalised gender is at least 40 percent of the board. However, in Nigeria, there is little research on women's participation in corporate board decisions taken into cognizance of critical mass theory. Thus, the study investigates how the critical mass of female representation on the corporate board and audit committee affects earnings quality. The study employs a longitudinal design by collecting secondary data on eleven deposit money banks from 2011-2022. The study uses data collected after testing endogeneity problems using Hausman's test. The results show that females on the board and audit committee significantly affect the quality of earnings when reaching the critical mass threshold. The study provides policy implications for supporting more significant involvement of women in board and audit committees based on business cases rather than social justice. Hence, this study proposes a mandatory thirty percent threshold compliance for board gender diversity, which the Central Bank of Nigeria voluntarily recommended.
Unravelling the drivers of priority sector lending for inclusive economic growth: Evidence from India

Published: February 2024

This research aims to explore the factors influencing Priority Sector Lending (PSL) in India, with a specific focus on both bank-specific and macroeconomic variables. By delving into the determinants shaping the implementation of PSL, the study seeks to understand why PSL levels have fallen below mandated targets in recent years. The study examines PSL data from 18 institutions spanning the years 2007 to 2020. The study looks at connection between factors specific to banks, macroeconomic variables, and the distribution of credit to support priority sectors using a random effects model that takes into account the different types of variables. The analysis reveals a noteworthy positive correlation between deposits and PSL. However, the study finds insignificance in the relationship between bank-specific variables and PSL. These findings shed light on the complexities surrounding meeting PSL targets, underscoring the necessity for comprehensive policy interventions, capacity-building initiatives, and improved stakeholder coordination to bolster the effectiveness of PSL. Understanding the challenges and opportunities associated with achieving PSL targets is crucial. The research underscores the need for proactive policy measures, efforts to enhance institutional capacities, and better coordination among stakeholders. Implementing these measures could significantly augment the efficacy of PSL and foster inclusive growth by ensuring financial access to underserved segments of society in India.
Retail Marketing Competencies in an Omnichannel World: A Post-Pandemic Shopping Revolution
Authors: Guillen Jr. Nelson B.
Published: February 2024

The pandemic has significantly impacted Metro Manila's local businesses in the Philippines. A series of lockdowns and government-imposed restrictions incapacitated the micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) because no customers could shop physically. Consequently, traditional or legacy brands shifted online alongside web-born companies or digital native vertical brands (DNBV). There has been a surge in internet marketing activity, especially on social media. In the post-pandemic era, online and offline activities underwent a metamorphosis beyond brand engagement. This study examined the elements that led to the redirection of MSMEs' marketing competencies, omnichannel strategies, and brand engagement using Kahn's success matrix via survey research. One hundred two (102) retailers from different MSMEs in Metro Manila participated in the survey, which consisted of sixteen cities and a municipality. Multivariate analysis, path analysis, and t-tests were used to analyze the results. The shopping revolution goes beyond shifting from physical stores to online as customers increasingly demand seamless integration across all channels. Therefore, marketing capabilities must align with firms' omnichannel initiatives to reimagine engagement and maximize opportunities in the new normal. Since the study was limited to Metro Manila, findings may not apply elsewhere. Indeed, businesses frequently face crises, whether a natural disaster, an economic slump, or a health issue. However, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated specific processes, making it difficult for MSMEs to recover and regain pace as they cannot stay purely online or offline. The study's findings had essential implications for MSME operations in Metro Manila as local businesses attempt to bounce back and regain momentum in the post-pandemic phase.

Forgetting / Cybernetics
Authors: Gómez-Venegas Diego
Published: February 2024

This article aims to trace epistemological connections between cybernetics and German media theory by emphasizing the notion of forgetting. This notion is presented as a central condition for problematizing, first, the human-machine coupling pointed out by cybernetics and, second, the rise of the machines that has concerned German media theory for decades. To this end, the article draws a line between an early text by Friedrich Kittler and Heinz von Foerster’s work on memory; a connection that will also be discussed in the light of findings and statements by Moritz Hiller and Jan Müggenburg. Finally, this article will outline a (still hypothetical) way to problematize the techno-epistemological scope of Project Cybersyn through the lens of such a notion.
