Populism, Cosmopolitanism, or Democratic Realism?
Creators: name: Meckstroth, Christopher
Publisher: name: Global Justice : Theory Practice Rhetoric
Year: 2020

description: This article argues that populism, cosmopolitanism, and calls for global justice should be understood not as theoretical positions but as appeals to different segments of democratic electorates with the aim of assembling winning political coalitions. This view is called democratic realism: it considers political competition in democracies from a perspective that is realist in the sense that it focuses not first on the content of competing political claims but on the relationships among different components of the coalitions they work to mobilise in the pursuit of power. It is argued that Laclau’s populist theory offers a sort of realist critique of other populists, but that his view neglects the crucial dynamics of political coalition-building. When the relation of populism to global justice is rethought from this democratic realist angle, one can better understand the sorts of challenges each faces, and also where and how they come into conflict.

description: In the case of radon exposure, the spatial distribution of deposited radioactive particles is highly inhomogeneous in the central airways. The objective of this research is to investigate the consequences of this heterogeneity regarding cellular burdens in the bronchial epithelium and to study the possible biological effects on tissue level. Applying a computational fluid dynamics program, the deposition distribution of inhaled radon daughters has been determined in a bronchial airway model for 23 minutes of work in the New Mexico uranium mine corresponding to 0.0129 WLM exposure. A numerical epithelium model based on experimental data has been utilized in order to quantify cellular hits and doses. Finally, a carcinogenesis model considering cell death induced cell cycle shortening has been applied to assess the biological responses. Computations present, that cellular dose may reach 1.5 Gy, which is several orders of magnitude higher than tissue dose. The results are in agreement with the histological finding that the uneven deposition distribution of radon progenies may lead to inhomogeneous spatial distribution of tumours in the bronchial airways. In addition, on macroscopic level, the relationship between cancer risk and radiation burden seems to be non-linear.

Why Populists Do Well on Social Networks
Creators: name: Spiekermann, Kai
Publisher: name: Global Justice : Theory Practice Rhetoric
Year: 2020

description: A link between populism and social media is often suspected. This paper spells out a set of possible mechanisms underpinning this link: that social media changes the communication structure of the public sphere, making it harder for citizens to obtain evidence that refutes populist assumptions. By developing a model of the public sphere, four core functions of the public sphere are identified: exposing citizens to diverse information, promoting equality of deliberative opportunity, creating deliberative transparency, and producing common knowledge. A wellworking public sphere allows citizens to learn that there are genuine disagreements among citizens that are held in good faith. Social media makes it harder to gain this insight, opening the door for populist ideology.

Publisher: name: IEEE Signal Processing Society

description: Video Multimethod Assessment Fusion (VMAF) [1],[2],[3] is a popular tool in the industry for measuring coded video quality. In this study, we propose an auditory-inspired frontend in existing VMAF for creating videos of reference and coded spectrograms, and extended VMAF for measuring coded audio quality. We name our system AudioVMAF. We demonstrate that image replication is capable of further enhancing prediction accuracy, especially when band-limited anchors are present. The proposed method significantly outperforms all existing visual quality features repurposed for audio, and even demonstrates a significant overall improvement of 7.8% and 2.0% of Pearson and Spearman rank correlation coefficient, respectively, over a dedicated audio quality metric (ViSQOL-v3 [4]) also inspired from the image domain.
Populism and Global Justice: A Sibling Rivalry?
Creators: name: McKean, Benjamin
Publisher: name: Global Justice : Theory Practice Rhetoric
Year: 2020

description: As academic literatures and political demands, global justice and populism look like competing ways of diagnosing and addressing neoliberal inequality. But both misunderstand neoliberalism and consequently risk reinforcing rather than undermining it. Neoliberalism does not just break down political and social hierarchies, but also relies on and sustains them. Unless populists recognize this, they will find that assertions of sovereignty do more to reinforce neoliberalism and reproduce its hierarchies than to resist them. Recognizing neoliberalism as not simply corrosive of solidarity but also producing its own affective ties suggests that global justice advocates need to develop a critique of individual attitudes that egalitarian liberals have often seen as private and been hesitant to judge. In short, if either populism or global justice hope to take advantage of neoliberalism’s failures to advance an egalitarian politics, they need to reckon more carefully with their own entanglement with neoliberalism’s hopes and hierarchies.

description: Gravitational backgrounds, such as black holes, AdS, de Sitter and inflationary universes, should be viewed as composite of N soft constituent gravitons. It then follows that such systems are close to quantum criticality of graviton Bose-gas to Bose-liquid transition. Generic properties of the ordinary metric description, including geodesic motion or particle-creation in the background metric, emerge as the large-N limit of quantum scattering of constituent longitudinal gravitons. We show that this picture correctly accounts for physics of large and small black holes in AdS, as well as reproduces well-known inflationary predictions for cosmological parameters. However, it anticipates new effects not captured by the standard semi-classical treatment. In particular, we predict observable corrections that are sensitive to the inflationary history way beyond last 60 e-foldings. We derive an absolute upper bound on the number of e-foldings, beyond which neither de Sitter nor inflationary Universe can be approximated by a semi-classical metric. However, they could in principle persist in a new type of it quantum eternity state. We discuss implications of this phenomenon for the cosmological constant problem.

A Case of Trickle-down Feminism
Creators: Cameron, Kari
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2003
Subjects: Social service

description: "Trickle-down feminism,” a notion that rights and privileges enjoyed by an elite group of women will trickle down and benefit the majority of women, is wholly ineffective in promoting positive social change. It should be replaced by the principles of equalism, a belief in the value and responsibility of all people. Social workers, through our professional experience and knowledge of family dynamics, can play a pivotal role in promoting equalism over trickle-down feminism.
The Timing of Income Recognition in Tax Law and the Time Value of Money, by Moshe Shekel

description: American income-tax law, it has often been said, boils down to two big questions: character and timing. Do away with capital gains preferences and limitations on the utility of capital losses, and the numbingly complex Internal Revenue Code provisions aimed at preventing manipulation of character rules could disappear. Doing so might not be a good idea for other reasons—even if there were no capital gains preference, it might still be desirable to have rules disfavoring recognition of capital losses—but one unquestionable benefit of jettisoning the whole structure would be simplification.

In contrast, it’s impossible to imagine how timing issues can ever disappear from an income-tax system. Obviously they should be minimized—all contentious issues should be minimized—but questions about when income should be recognized and when deductions should be permitted will be with us until the end of time. And here too simplification could come at a cost. The tension between the desire for technical precision in timing rules and the desire for simplification of the tax law can’t be eliminated: simpler tax laws almost inevitably mean that more abuses will be tolerated.

description: The Pedagogics of Unlearning is an unusual and awkward phrase, for an unusual or awkward formulation. To make my own sense of  it  I  have  had  to  translate  it,  expand  it,  and  unpack  it,  in  my  own  way.  Inevitably,  there  are  other  ways  and  other  transla-tions. But to me, the phrase or formulation “the pedagogics of unlearning” (as the title of this conference) seems to be asking to be translated as something like: “This conference seeks to be about  how  to  emancipate  ourselves  from  everything  we  ever  thought we knew about the logics of teaching and learning.” Or, to unpack this more fully: “This conference seeks to be about (a good thing called) how to emancipate ourselves from (a deluded condition vis-à-vis) everything we ever thought we knew about (an implicitly bad or at least suspect thing or group of things, at least to the extent that we need to unlearn it or them, called) the logics of teaching and learning.”
Failing Solidarity: Justified or Excused?
Creators: name: Milazzo, Eleonora
Publisher: name: Global Justice : Theory Practice Rhetoric
Year: 2020

description: The concept of solidarity has been receiving growing attention from scholars in a wide range of disciplines. While this trend coincides with widespread unsuccessful attempts to achieve solidarity in the real world, the failure of solidarity as such remains a relatively unexplored topic. In the case of the so-called European Union (EU) refugee crisis, the fact that EU member states failed to fulfil their commitment to solidarity is now regarded as established wisdom. But as we try to come to terms with failing solidarity in the EU we are faced with a number of important questions: are all instances of failing solidarity equally morally reprehensible? Are some motivations for resorting to unsolidaristic measures more valid than others? What claims have an effective countervailing force against the commitment to act in solidarity?

description: Probably most of us would agree that, however expert we might become in this or that specialty, we are not richly educated until we have experience of a wide range of disciplines and method-ologies  —  a  range  that  includes  critique  and  creativity,  analysis  and  immersion,  learning  and  unlearning.  To  our  sorrow,  this  conception of education is rapidly losing favor with the citizen-ry.  There  are,  of  course,  pushbacks.  San  Francisco  took  to  the  courts  to  defend  the  nature  of  its  City  College’s  (CCSF)  course  offerings from the so-called “student success” movement, which preaches efficiency and “progress to the degree.” The Accredit-ing Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (a private concern)  has  tried  to  shut  City  College  down,  and  the  SF  Dis-trict Attorney has successfully sued to protect it (City Attorney of San Francisco, 2016). Prior to the attack by the ACCJC, CCSF actually maintained graduation rates better than those of most community  colleges  in  the  country;  the  real  target  of  the  Ac-creditation  Commission  appears  to  have  been  the  wide  range  of services CCSF provides for San Franciscans that do not target progress-to-the-degree as such, like the Queer Resource Center, the  Women’s  Resource  Center  and  Library,  English  classes  for  recent immigrants, parenting classes for new parents, technical and  clerical  training,  music,  painting,  and  sound  engineering.  Colleges like CCSF are points of crossover between the academy and the rest of the world. They treat culture shock, give the el-derly  new  leases  on  life,  and  resist  the  ongoing  enserfment  of  the  citizenry  and  those  who  aspire  to  it.  The  “student  success”  movement means to impoverish sentience, not to enrich it; it’s a Thatcherite attempt to discipline and punish, and capitalists love it. But why do so many other people fall for it?

Transnational Populism, Democracy, and Representation: Pitfalls and Potentialities
Creators: name: Kuyper, Jonathan
name: Moffitt, Benjamin
Publisher: name: Global Justice : Theory Practice Rhetoric
Year: 2020

description: Current work on populism stresses its relationship to nationalism. However, populists increasingly make claims to represent ‘the people’ across beyond national borders. This advent of ‘transnational populism’ has implications for work on cosmopolitan democracy and global justice. In this paper, we advance and substantiate three claims. First, we stress populism’s performative and claimmaking nature. Second, we argue that transnational populism is both theoretically possible and empirically evident in the contemporary global political landscape. Finally, we link these points to debates on democracy beyond the state. We argue that, due to the a) performative nature of populism, b) complex interdependencies of peoples, and c) need for populists to gain and maintain support, individuals in one state will potentially have their preferences, interests, and wants altered by transnational populists’ representative claims. We unpack what is normatively problematic in terms of democratic legitimacy about this and discuss institutional and non-institutional remedies.

Populist Appeals and Populist Conversations
Creators: name: Fumagalli, Corrado
Publisher: name: Global Justice : Theory Practice Rhetoric
Year: 2020

description: This article sheds light upon the role of the audience in the construction and amendment of populist representative claims that in themselves strengthen representative-represented relationships and simultaneously strengthen ties between the represented who belong to different constituencies. I argue that changes in populist representative claims can be explained by studying the discursive relationship between a populist representative and the audience as a conversation in which both poles give and receive something. From this perspective, populist representative claims, I also argue, can be understood as acts of bonding with the intended effect of constituting ‘the people,’ and inputs from the audience can be seen as conversational exercitives. Populist appeals therefore may change when the audience enacts new permissibility facts and signals to populist representatives that there is another way to strengthen relationships between several individuals belonging to otherwise-different constituencies.

Challenging Pornography, Challenged by Pornography: From Monstrous Tactics to Enactments of Poiēsis

Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2016

description: The  point  of  departure  of  this  edited  volume  was  experimental,  and so too is its result. The idea for this collection initially sprung from a need, not to mention desire, to open up, relate to and test the limits of certain avenues of thought and their material impli-cations. These were part of our intellectual horizons and everyday experiences when we were living in the UK, but were also shaped by our moving in and out of the country, and through friends, or friends of friends, families of all kinds, comrades, books, objects, concepts etc. from all over the world. The idea came from a need to experiment with (familiar or unfamiliar) others, so as to create a platform of engagement while “sweating” with certain concepts, as  Sarah  Ahmed  so  beautifully  put  it.1  But  such  need  to  experi-ment  derived  from  the  fact  that  we  had  already  found  ourselves  “sweating” with desire in our everyday lives, in relationships that were  confronting  us  with  our  own  failed  attempts  to  transcend  limits,  in  feelings  of  embarrassment,  frustration,  and  anger  with  imposed structures, in repeating what we had promised ourselves never to do again, in blushing with guilt for something we never for a moment thought we would do, but at the same time feeling the liberation of doing it, in not admitting to ourselves and others that queer might not be the word to define all of our unreleased fantasies, or in asking what the limits of queer might be... – the list of our meanderings in the realms of desire and sexuality could go on endlessly.

However,  it’s  not my job to produce it, others do it very well, on a large scale and in a stylish way, like Shine Louise Houston or Courtney Trou-ble. Each artist has her own way of working and her own aesthet-ics. There are movements and currents of thought, which evolve in  time  and  sometimes  contradict  each  other.  Personally,  I  don’t  really like the term “post” (post-porn, post-feminism...), nor do I feel represented by the term “queer artist.”

description: Potential and dipole moment curves for the CrH(X$^6Σ^+$) molecule were obtained at the internally-contracted multi-reference configuration interaction with single and double excitations and Davidson correction (ic-MRCISD+Q) level using large basis set augmented with additional diffused functions and using Douglass-Kroll Hamiltonian for scalar relativistic effects. Also bound states, average positions and rotational constants calculated on the CrH(X$^6Σ^+$) potential are reported. The He-CrH(X$^6Σ^+$) potential energy surface was calculated with the coupled cluster singles, doubles, and noniterative triples [RCCSD(T)] method. The global minimum was found for the collinear He---Cr-H geometry with the well depth of 1143.84 cm$^{-1}$ at $R_e=4.15$ a$_0$. An insight in the character of the complex was gained by means of symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT) based on DFT description of the monomers. The presence of the so called "exchange cavity" was observed. Finally, bound states of the He-CrH complex for J = 0 are presented.

How might real-time co-analysis be utilised to produce new knowledge for both designer and participant?
Often in workshops that surface participant insights, the analysis of the artefacts and remnants are left for the workshop facilitators, usually back at a desk and with little time. For sharing the results, even if a report is written, it’s typically long after the participants and others can access the trends and insights. This workshop starts with generating data through reflecting on an aspect of your creative practice using materials, followed by experiments in co-analysis of the data we generate.
This Workshopping Workshops session offers an opportunity to explore real-time co-analysis of data in material and visual forms.
We invite creative practitioners who work with non-numerical data (visual/material/embodied/intuitive, etc.) as well as those who are interested in new ways to integrate co-analysis activities into their practice.

description: International social work is gaining recognition as a distinct field of study and practice, and in this process, its meaning continues to be delineated. In this paper, I describe a series of experiences during a summer field practicum coordinating the final phase of a year-long qualitative research study on sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) in Lira, northern Uganda. While not a conclusive statement on the nature of all international social work, this paper presents personal experiences to illustrate how the psychosocial skills, practices, and theory of the social work profession can lend themselves well to the emotional and managerial demands of international work in a post-conflict, developing country context.

description: This article investigates a few questions about orbits of local automorphisms in manifolds endowed with rigid geometric structures. We give sufficient conditions for local homogeneity in a broad class of such structures, namely Cartan geometries, extending a classical result of Singer about locally homogeneous Riemannian manifolds. We also revisit a strong result of Gromov which describes the structure of the orbits of local automorphisms of manifolds endowed with $A$-rigid structures, and give a statement of this result in the setting of Cartan geometries.

The built environment serves as a reflection of ourselves. It can reflect, or obstruct, our needs, wants, motivations, and desires. Our daily lives are translated and transported into these spaces. COVID-19 has forced the border between the physical and digital to merge and become obscured as we navigate these spaces digitally in our own homes. Are they serving our needs or confronting the limitations of physical, cultural, and social barriers we find in the workplace, our schools, and essential services? There is an urgent need to re-examine our relationships to the locations we digitally navigate. How might we better understand how digital ecologies affect and reflect our lived experiences? How might we communally analyse these new digital experiences and locations? There is a level of care required in strengthening and reimagining these digital spaces. My research is currently investigating ways to learn from past lived experiences so that these futures not yet realised can be designed with greater intention. I propose a seminar discussion that can incorporate a short reflection activity where participants examine their relationship to digital environments by translating the felt experience into form. This material translation builds a frame of reference in which participants can then interpret and co-analyse thematic patterns raised through shared dialogue. Emergent, nascent needs become surfaced and applied through futuring prompts that aim to provide participants a reflexive language to share tacit knowledge once felt, but not yet articulated. New relationships to emerging digital locations require us to reimagine what is possible. This intentionality may support decision making when needing to create new spaces and/or experiences that give way to emergence. Such nascent actions, for which a designer cannot predict each potentiality, demands experiences that adapt to use and scenario, that are more inclusive to needs and wants, and that are not predetermined fixed realities.
Open Letter on Empowerment and Queer Pron
Creators: name: Fischer, Kathryn
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2016

description: There  is  nothing  inherently  empowering  about  making  porn  or  showing the naked female (or any gendered) body on stage. The empowering  part  I  believe,  is  primarily  based  in  our  freedom  to  explore what we are actually interested in, asking ourselves about life, and what we love to do. This could include, but is not limited to, discovering that we are exhibitionists or artists and/or that we enjoy exploring our sexuality with lots of different kinds of people. The  freedom  to  explore  these  things  –  without  feeling  pressure  from  speculations  about  our  gender  or  sexual  orientation  and  without  feeling  shame  about  what  we  are  publicly  “allowed”  to  do or express out loud as those genders and orientations – deflates the imagined magnitude of what it is to show our bodies’ sexuality in public.
A Seductive Intrigue of Sexuality?
Creators: name: Goknur, Sinan
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2016

description: While most critiques of – as well as support for – explicit sexuality are  framed  in  terms  of  morality,  exploitation,  and  misogyny  vs.  empowerment, agency and sexual liberation, Baudrillard’s polemi-cal twist invites us to reconsider the matter from a different angle. In  his  article  “Dust  Breeding,”  he  frames  explicit  sexuality  (e.g.,  live sex events, porn, etc.) as yet another manifestation of our col-lective  urge  to  demystify  life  into  a  banal  reality.1  He  disregards  the possibility of liberation through acts that hasten sexuality into integral  reality,  when  the  very  essence  of  power  lies  in  ascribing  to reality everything that was in the order of dreams. By integral reality,  Baudrillard  refers  to  the  procedure,  which  is  accelerated  by modernity, whereby everything becomes real, visible, transpar-ent, “liberated,” and legible to cultural and political regimes and whereby there is no longer anything on which there is nothing to say. He argues that sexuality is at best a hypothesis, and that as a hypothesis it does not make sense to strive for a systematic “libera-tion” through affirming the act. Rather, he contends that explicit-ness merely causes sexuality to lose its authority and its aura, the essential qualities that it once took on through repression.
Is the Healthy Marriage Initiative Really Healthy for Families?
Creators: Yardley, Meg
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2005
Subjects: Social service
Public policy (Law)

description: The Healthy Marriage Initiative is a government proposal to expand programs promoting marriage, particularly among low-income families and welfare recipients. In this paper, I examine the implications of this proposal as it applies to child poverty. I argue that contrary to the claims of its proponents, the Healthy Marriage Initiative would not substantially reduce child poverty rates, would increase as many unhealthy as healthy marriages, and would intrude inappropriately into the lives of poor men and women.
title: Efficiency and Effectiveness in Global Software Engineering
Creators: name: Staudinger, Ulrich
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2024

description: This action research thesis occurred in a Bank's software engineering sector of 5,200 people,
embedded in a productivity improvement programme to improve productivity by the equivalent
of USD 233m over three years. Settled within critical theories and complex responsive
processes, this thesis pursued two objectives. First, it aligned the sector's conceptions
of productivity as reified symbols through two research questions: "what is productivity?" and
"How to measure productivity?". Second, it improved productivity by answering the "how can the
organisation improve productivity?".
Latino Children’s Mental Health: An Analysis of Risk Factors, Healthcare Access, and Intervention Strategies
Creators: Holloway, Ian
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2007
Subjects: Social service
Mental health

description: Research suggests that Latino children are at an elevated risk for a variety of mental health problems (Flores, Fuentes-Afflic, Barbot, et al., 2002). Latinos are often vulnerable to the deleterious effects of poverty, institutional racism, community violence and other types of psychosocial stressors, which have been linked to negative mental health outcomes (Flisher, Kramer, Grosser, et al., 1997; Saunders, Resnick, Hoberman, et al., 1994). Furthermore, Latino children are likely to face significant barriers to accessing mental healthcare services, such as limited availability of Spanish-speaking providers, difficulty obtaining and navigating health insurance, and cultural obstacles, such as the belief that mental illness is a spiritual or religious matter. The current paper will: (1) explore specific risk factors for mental health disorders among Latino children; (2) examine barriers to appropriate mental health treatment among Latino children; (3) provide an overview of the types of intervention strategies currently used to address mental health problems among Latino children; and (4) offer recommendations for the development of additional and/or improved methods for the prevention and treatment of mental health disorders among Latino children.

description: Context. The object HD 43587Aa is a G0V star observed during the 145-day LRa03 run of the COnvection, ROtation and planetary Transits space mission (CoRoT), for which complementary High Accuracy Radial velocity Planet Searcher (HARPS) spectra with S/N>300 were also obtained. Its visual magnitude is 5.71, and its effective temperature is close to 5950 K. It has a known companion in a highly eccentric orbit and is also coupled with two more distant companions. Aims. We undertake a preliminary investigation of the internal structure of HD 43587Aa. Methods. We carried out a seismic analysis of the star, using maximum likelihood estimators and Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods. Results. We established the first table of the eigenmode frequencies, widths, and heights for HD 43587Aa. The star appears to have a mass and a radius slightly larger than the Sun, and is slightly older (5.6 Gyr). Two scenarios are suggested for the geometry of the star: either its inclination angle is very low, or the rotation velocity of the star is very low. Conclusions. A more detailed study of the rotation and of the magnetic and chromospheric activity for this star is needed, and will be the subject of a further study. New high resolution spectrometric observations should be performed for at least several months in duration.

Everyday Porn
Creators: name: Aavriti, Namita
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2016

description: In  a  channel  for  amateur  pornographic  videos  online,  an  odd  video bobs into view titled “Crowded Bus.” This video has about 6,900,000 hits. A person sitting in the front section of a bus has shot this video, and its lingering, intrusive gaze passes over various women seated and standing around. One or two of them notice the camera and give irritated glances. Most ignore it and continue talking or staring into the distance, the banality of their daily com-mute undisturbed by this almost idiotic and perverse sexual gaze on bodies packed into a bus. Buses and trains are spaces in India where women are often harassed; hence the separation of the bus into gendered zones so that women can sit safely in the front. But these are also spaces in which myriad consensual yet covert sexual encounters are taking place between people.

Look! But Also, Touch!: Theorizing Images of Trans Eroticism Beyond a Politics of Visual Essentialism
Creators: name: Steinbock, Eliza
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2016

description: Jamison Green’s essay “Look! No, Don’t!: The Visibility Dilemma for  Transsexual  Men”  discusses  the  conflict  between  on  the  one  hand  claiming  that  “we”  transsexuals  want  to  be  invisible,  while  on the other hand begging to be acknowledged. The activism that demands that society “Look!” is carried out through what Green calls  “public  ‘confessions,’”  revelations  that  are  situated  beyond  family,  lovers,  and  doctors  in  increasingly  public  spaces  such  as  classrooms,  the  television,  and  especially,  in  films.1  The  counter-imperative “No, don’t!,” as Green explains, relates to being caught up in the regulation of transsexual treatment, in which “in order to be a good – or successful – transsexual person, one is not sup-posed to be a transsexual person at all.”2 At least from a medical perspective, the aim of hormonal and surgical treatment is to make the patient feel “normal” (that is, non-transsexual or dysphoric), a cure embodied by not drawing attention to oneself as transsexual.
