Replication and Reproduction
Authors: De Los Reyes Andres 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Chapter 23 of Discrepant Results in Mental Health Research describes how research and theory on discrepant results connect to issues at the core of scientific inquiry in the social sciences, namely the replication crisis. Ironically, the discrepant results discussed in this book represent perhaps the most replicable finding in mental health research. Much of the replication crisis literature frames low levels of replication as reflective of a “crisis of confidence” in the results of scholarly inquiry. This chapter describes how research and theory on discrepant results counter the larger discussion surrounding replication in mental health research. The chapter closes with outlining steps researchers can take to probe replication failures across studies and/or failures to reproduce findings within individual studies.
Racial Passing, 1949–1954
Authors: Harris Matthew L. 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter examines how the church responded to “racial passing” following the Second World War. As the church expanded into South Africa, Brazil, and other countries with a significant Black and biracial population, reports filtered back to LDS church headquarters that Latter-day Saints of Black African descent were flouting the church’s racial markers. When genealogy revealed that light-skinned South African and Brazilian Latter-day Saints had Black African ancestry, they moved to Utah and Idaho, where they could pass as White. This chapter highlights how LDS religion teachers dealt with racial passing and other teachings associated with the one-drop rule. The chapter also evaluates the Bennion Report, the controversial study that church president David O. McKay commissioned in 1954 to explore the origins, practices, and policies denying Black people priesthood and important temple rituals.
Hard Doctrine, 2000–2013
Authors: Harris Matthew L. 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter explores BYU religion professor Randy Bott’s controversial interview with Washington Post reporter Jason Horowitz wherein the professor promoted the church’s antiblack teachings. This affected Mormon Mitt Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign, then underway. This chapter also examines the fallout from Bott’s interview, which resulted in two forcefully worded PR statements the church produced condemning him. And it examines how the church made a number of subtle moves to prepare itself for global expansion. High-ranking church leaders named the first Black general authority, removed Mormon Doctrine from print, and condemned the church’s erstwhile racial theology in a seminal essay called “Race and the Priesthood.”
Deciding for Others
Authors: Aspers Patrik 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The analysis of value uncertainty continues in this chapter. Here the focus is on outcomes of forms that reduce uncertainty resulting from decisions for others. Essentially, three roles and their interrelated permanence over time make up these forms: those making decisions, those for whom the decisions are made, and the audience acclaiming decisions. There are numerous empirical examples, including the Oscars jury that makes decisions on actors and others’ performances. In science, a Nobel Prize exemplifies decisions for others made by a committee, which has been delegated this task by the Nobel Foundation. The concrete decision is about who shall be given the medicine prize, for example, with its status and financial reward. By this consecration of values, the scientific community not only celebrates itself and establishes its importance, but it also signals what is good science and, indirectly, what is less good science. Non-scientists may also orient themselves to this.
Minor Majesties
Authors: Gillet Valérie 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This book is a study of the ancient small kingdom of Paḻuvūr, a town located about 30 km north of Tanjavur—today divided in two distinct villages and bearing the modern names of Kīḻappaḻuvūr and Mēlappaḻuvūr. It was the capital of a minor dynasty, the dynasty of the Paḻuvēṭṭaraiyars, active between the 9th and the 11th centuries, who swore allegiance to the Cōḻa dynasty. There are four still-standing Śiva temples in Paḻuvūr, built during the reign of the Paḻuvēṭṭaraiyar little kings. For the first time, this book analyzes the four monuments in their entirety, scrutinizing their materiality, their location, and their epigraphy. For this, the author carried out much fieldwork and established a corpus of 136 Tamil inscriptions engraved on the walls of the shrines, gathered at the end of the volume. Combining all these data, the author attempts to better understand, on the one hand, the functioning of the minor dynasty of the Paḻuvēṭṭaraiyars whose little kings often appear in the inscriptions of the temples, and, on the other hand, to map the interactions between the temples. The small size of Paḻuvūr with its hub of still-standing monuments provides exceptionally clear material to outline the possible relations between distinct temples, allowing us to fathom complexities related to temple sponsorship, organization, and functioning as well as the way those religious monuments, accruing wealth but enabling others gravitating around them to accrue merit and power, become the place for the fabrication of political discourses and powers, specific social configurations, and religious practices.
A Healthy Marriage?
Authors: van Dijk Ingrid K. , Dribe Martin 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter shows that marital status has had a fairly consistent association with mortality over the entire twentieth century for men. Increasingly, this association was also found among women. Married men have a survival premium today, and the same was true in the past. For men, marriage has been associated with lower mortality throughout the twentieth century and into the twenty-first century, while widowhood in particular has been associated with high mortality. The widowhood penalty is highest shortly after bereavement but persists in the long run, too. Over time, mortality differentials by marital status have increased for men, especially since 1950. It is remarkable that there is such stability in the survival advantage of married men despite the massive social, economic, and demographic changes during the period. The relationship between widowhood and mortality was weaker for women than for men but there was convergence in the patterns over time.
Climate Obstruction in Scotland
Authors: Dinan William , Esteves Victoria , Harkins Steven 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter examines the evolution of climate change obstructionism in Scotland. Scotland is a site of particular interest because of its political and economic context. The chapter charts the history of Scotland’s climate change debate in general and obstructionism in particular, paying attention to the political economy of oil and gas extraction in Scotland in the twenty-first century. It examines the role of interest groups such as trade associations representing the oil and gas sector, trade unions representing workers in extractive industries, and individual private enterprises (including some of the oil majors with interests in Scotland) in shaping the country’s climate debate and policy. It also considers the connection between climate obstructionism and policy, examining climate delay and climate denial discourses in Scotland’s mainstream and social media.
Climate Obstruction in the Netherlands
Authors: Duineveld Martijn , Dix Guus , Plets Gertjan , Hüzeir Vatan 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
By the 1980s, Dutch politicians had begun to acknowledge the climate change problem and took the international lead in political agenda-setting. Yet, the Netherlands cannot be seen as a climate hero. When the government has acted, it has favoured ‘positive’ measures appreciated by industry, such as creating subsidies for more ‘sustainable’ oil refineries through technofixes, retaining €30 billion in annual fossil subsidies, and seeking to speed the process for obtaining new drilling licenses for North Sea gas fields. This chapter provides evidence that high-emitting industries and state actors have significantly obstructed mitigation regulations from the 1980s to the present using tactics of climate denial, doubt mongering, and lobbying. The Dutch history of climate governance is therefore one of great ambitions dashed by these efforts but also partly systemic, the effect of the strong dependencies and alignments that have long existed between the Dutch state and its fossil fuel industry.
Climate Obstruction in the European Union
Authors: Plehwe Dieter , Neujeffski Moritz , Haas Tobias 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The European Union has gained increasing influence in setting climate policy. Its power to determine the orientation of the integrated body and in negotiation and decision-making gives the European Union a privileged role in the climate policies of individual member states—and these processes are, accordingly, contested. At the EU level, efforts to obstruct ambitious action aim not to deny climate change but to reduce the ambition of policy initiatives and make them more market friendly. To capture the opposition, the chapter evaluates texts from key EU associations such as BusinessEurope as well as the output of conservative and neoliberal European think tanks and networks such as the Centre for European Policy. It also examines the influence of fossil fuel and ‘green’ lobby groups and analyses the extent to which actors have been able to implement their climate obstruction activities through direct contacts within the European Commission.
Indirect capture
Authors: Wright Kate , Scott Martin , Bunce Mel 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Traditional understandings of the editorial firewall focus almost entirely on efforts to safeguard editorial matters alone. But this chapter argues that indirect forms of capture, which alter journalists’ working conditions, can dramatically lower their ability to resist the direct editorial interventions discussed in the next chapter. It explains why and how the Voice of America (VOA) was captured by the increased politicization of its governance structures, its financial and human resources, and the discursive reframing of its purpose within other media. It explains how these factors combined to make journalists overworked, demoralized, fearful of surveillance, and in some cases, anxious about their right to remain in the USA. This chapter also demonstrates that these indirect forms of capture had other political consequences: feeding into broader forms of de-democratizing discourse, circulated by right-wing networks online and on social media, in the run-up to the presidential election on November 3, 2020.
Introduction
Authors: Whyte Christopher 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The introduction asks a simple motivating question: What explains the meteoric rise in visibility of fringe elements in mainstream societal discourse during the first decades of the 21st century? Events like the Capitol Insurrection of January 6, 2021, and developments like the surge of medical skepticism during the global pandemic have produced great scrutiny on the challenge of extreme rhetoric in global society, with great attention paid to the enabling role of the internet. But what is it exactly that the internet has enabled? The book answers this question by tracking the experiences of subversive social movements and organizations to theorize about how subversive preferences and conditions interact with novel information technologies to explain recent trends. This introduction describes the emergence of “leaderlessness” as the default format of subversive activity in the digital age—which offers a clear answer to the book’s overarching question—and outlines the plan of the book.
Illegitimacy and the Logic of Subversion
Authors: Whyte Christopher 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
What types of social actors and political forces constitute the fringes of global civil society and why should we be interested in them? Borrowing from a deep, cross-disciplinary body of work on counterhegemony and radical nonstate actors in world politics, this chapter focuses on subversive social movements and nonstate organizations. Subversion is a purposive effort to compromise the perceived legitimacy of prevailing status quo forces. Whereas coercion involves the imposition of cost in order to alter the behavior of others, subversion involves the degradation of the credibility and perceived relevance of symbols of the status quo. In practice, the strategy involves detaching the loyalties of a population toward those symbols of prevailing authority that contribute to a broad recognition of the status quo as legitimate and transferring them elsewhere. Those who practice such approaches are, by definition, at the fringe of mainstream society, contextually defined.
The Landscape of Subversion in the Digital Age
Authors: Whyte Christopher 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter defines the scope of digital antagonism as a toolkit of cyber actions useful for harassment, circumvention, and manipulation of the information environment of the 21st century. It describes a first-of-its-kind data collection effort and engages in descriptive study of digital antagonism at the fringe. Over the past several decades, an incredibly diverse universe of nonstate groups and movements—from far-right groups across the West to extreme environmentalists in Brazil and cultist movements like Eastern Lightning in China—have moved to the web in great numbers. The data shows that subversive digital antagonism is organically unsophisticated. However, it differs from these other forms of digital engagement in focus and application insofar as information enrichment is clearly prioritized over simple disruption.
Investing in Black Excellence
Authors: Rose Deondra 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Chapter 5 examines the critical role that HBCU faculty have played in developing empowered citizens. As the frontline implementers of HBCU programming and missions, they are often pioneers in their fields whose courses provide students with knowledge and skills that can unlock professional opportunities and foster political and civic engagement. As former students describe, HBCU faculty members consistently act as valuable mentors who are attuned to the challenges that Black citizens face in the United States and globally. They hold their students to high expectations and often go beyond the call of duty to marshal them through their academic programs. Thus, HBCU faculty have been able to create a culture on HBCU campuses that students describe as almost familial where the collective takes precedence over the individual, and students feel as though others are watching out for them, expect them to be excellent, and are deeply invested in their success.
Conspiracy and Coronation
Authors: Doran Susan 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Shortly before James’s coronation two plots were uncovered. The Bye Plot was the brainchild of a Catholic secular priest, William Watson, and a layman, Sir Griffin Markham, who were seeking, at the very least, toleration for Catholics. The Main Plot was supposedly a conspiracy involving Henry Lord Cobham and Sir Walter Ralegh with the intention of putting the king’s English cousin Arbella Stuart on the throne. After Jesuits revealed the Bye to Bishop Bancroft, suspects were interrogated until the coronations interrupted the inquiries. Their coronations, the first ever in English and according to Protestant rites, were designed to reinforce James’s title as a hereditary king and the principle of the divine right of kings. Immediately afterwards, the interrogations of the accused resumed. At their trials, the main defendants were found guilty, even though Ralegh put on an impressive performance.
Taxonomies of case and ontologies of case
Authors: Preminger Omer 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter argues in favour of configurational approaches like dependent case theories, being the sole approaches necessary for structural case assignment. To do so, it also argues explicitly against phi-agreement playing any role in case assignment. The paper puts forward an updated version of Marantz’s (1991) original configurational account that eliminates default case entirely and relabels lexically governed case as HEAD case, in a move that allows case to be licensed by a lexical, or functional head. The latter possibility eliminates the need for Agree-cased theories that crucially rely on case assigned by functional heads. This proposal leaves no room for what are called taxonomies of traditional case labels (accusative, nominative, etc.) and argues that much of the ontological debates around these labels, relate to the illusions posed by these taxonomies.
Challenges for dependent case
Authors: Bárány András , Sheehan Michelle 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter discusses challenges to dependent case theory. Dependent case theory, in its strongest form, holds that morphological case is never assigned by functional heads but always based on the syntactic configuration of a predicate’s arguments. This contribution investigates certain phenomena such as transitivity-sensitive case in Romance causatives and global case splits, which challenge the strongest interpretation of dependent case. In both Romance causatives and global case splits, the structural configuration of the predicate’s nominal arguments does not suffice to explain morphological case-marking patterns. Rather, both phenomena are better modelled as consequences of Agree relations between functional heads and the relevant arguments.
Case and the theory of parameters
Authors: Roberts Ian 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter rather programmatically discusses four principal issues surrounding Case and its role in linguistic theory, all of which arise when the original notion is subjected to a minimalist critique. The first is the question of whether a system can lack abstract Case altogether; here the results reported by Sheehan and van der Wal (2018) are of central importance and, accordingly, these are summarized. The second concerns the relation between Case and agreement; here Baker’s (2008a, 2015) Case Dependence of Agreement Parameter (CDAP) is central. The third issue is the question whether case relations should be construed as dependencies among DPs in a given domain, rather than as features of functional heads, as originally proposed by Marantz (1991) and developed in depth by Baker (2015) (see also Baker and Bobaljik 2017). Finally, there is the question of the reason that Case should exist at all. Here the proposals in Hinzen (2017: 55–8) are considered.
Genitives and datives with Ancient Greek three-place predicates
Authors: Anagnostopoulou Elena , Macleod Morgan , Mertyris Dionysios , Sevdali Christina 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter investigates the behaviour of three-place predicates in Ancient Greek. Three classes of predicates are investigated: taking two accusative arguments, an accusative and a genitive, and an accusative and a dative respectively. Corpus data are used as the basis for a new system of classification, making finer and more accurate distinctions than traditional classifications. Analysis of the data supports the view that the genitive and dative were lexical cases aligned with specific theta-roles. The two cases display parallel, yet non-uniform, behaviour: some, but not all, genitives and datives can alternate with nominatives in passive constructions. While many alternating verbs are prefixed, prefixation is not in itself a good predictor of such alternations, which are more closely correlated with verb semantics and theta-roles. The genitive and dative in such constructions may be described as syntactically active lexical cases.
Book 1
Authors: Bachvarova Mary R. 
Published: July 2024

AbstractAchilles’s anger against the Achaean leader Agamemnon and his subsequent withdrawal from the battlefield spur Zeus’s intervention in the final year of the Trojan War. To honor Achilles by showing how indispensable he is, Zeus agrees to Thetis’s request that he temporarily give the Trojans the upper hand in the fighting. Under the category of themes, this chapter discusses Zeus’s plan, Achilles’s anger, disputes over honor, the Homeric warrior ethos, and powerful speech. Under the category of poetics, it discusses the textualization of the Iliad, synchronic versus diachronic interpretations, features of oral poetry (festival setting, composition in performance, formulas, type scenes, traditional referentiality, variation, serialization, transference of motifs), and Indo-European and Near Eastern contributions to the Homeric tradition.
Book 3
Authors: Lyons Deborah 
Published: July 2024

AbstractBook 3 begins with Hector reproaching Paris for his deficiencies as a warrior. Paris responds by proposing a duel with Menelaus for possession of Helen. The goddess Iris summons Helen to watch the duel from the walls of the city, where she answers Priam’s questions about the Greek warriors. Aphrodite rescues Paris from injury and summons a reluctant Helen to join him in his bedchamber, where she compares him unfavorably to her former husband. Meanwhile Menelaus searches fruitlessly for his opponent. This chapter discusses the following items under the category of themes: the contrast between Paris and Hector, divine gifts, the power of the gods over mortals, fate, epiphany, oath-sacrifices, women and weaving, Helen’s relationship to epic, and Indo-European elements in the Teichoskopia (“Watching at the Wall”). Under the category of poetics it discusses: similes, the two names of Paris, the organization of the narrative, and counterfactual constructions.
Book 4
Authors: Anhalt Emily Katz 
Published: July 2024

AbstractIliad 4 depicts the aftermath of the abortive duel between Menelaus and Paris and the resumption of battle between Greeks and Trojans. Like the Iliad as a whole, book 4 distinguishes the perspective of the epic’s external audience from that of the mortal characters within the story, enabling the audience to evaluate the mortal characters’ words and actions. A divine assembly reveals that morality and justice are the responsibility not of gods but of human beings. Interactions between gods, gods and mortals, and mortal leaders emphasize the interdependence of individual and communal fortunes. Mortal moral transgressions and the glorification of violence produce the morally indiscriminate devastations of warfare. Unlike the characters within the story, book 4 celebrates not violence but the uniquely human capacity for logical thought and articulate speech, exemplified by reciprocal moral agreements and narrative storytelling. Book 4 deploys epic poetic techniques of ekphrasis, simile, and para-narrative.
Book 9
Authors: Myers Tobias 
Published: July 2024

AbstractBook 9 represents a major turning point in the poem, despite the fact that nothing happens on the battlefield. As Zeus’s support for the Trojans in book 8 has placed the Achaeans in desperate straits, Agamemnon agrees to send an embassy to Achilles, promising many gifts if he will return to the fighting. Achilles’s vehement refusal, his attempts to explain himself, and his friends’ efforts to persuade him to fight open up a host of rich interpretive questions. This chapter explores the themes of Homeric values and status, moira (“allotment”), the consequences of mortality, and the ethical implications of Achilles’s choice as he presents it. The poetics section discusses Homeric nods, paradigms, plot, and metapoetics.
