Crutzen and Stoermer’s (2000) naming of the ‘Anthropocene’ has provoked lively debate across physical social sciences, but, while term is gradually gaining acceptance as signifier current geological epoch, it remains little more than a roughly defined place-holder for an era characterized by environmental uncertainty. The invites deeper considerations its meaning, significance, consequences thought politics. For this Forum, we invited five scholars to reflect on how Anthropocene poses...
Abstract We investigated the existence, nature, and processes underscoring backlash (social economic penalties) against men who violate gender stereotypes by working in education, whether is exacerbated internal (vs. external) behavioral attributions. Participants ( N = 303) rated one of six applications for an elementary teaching position, identical apart from target attribution type. Male applicants were as more likely to be gay, posing a greater safety threat, less likeable (but not...

For over two decades, geographers concerned with undoing what Judith Butler has referred to as ‘the conceit of anthropocentrism’ have brought animals in from the margins thought. Geography's contributions animal studies been diverse, but a key consideration retreat thinking toward plural, more-than-human analysis. A recent privileging ‘spaces encounter’ nonhuman others challenges significance altogether, equating them other entities—along nonliving processes, movement molecules, viruses,...
Improving laboratory animal science and welfare requires both new scientific research insights from in the humanities social sciences. Whilst provides evidence to replace, reduce refine procedures involving animals (the '3Rs'), work sciences can help understand social, economic cultural processes that enhance or impede humane ways of knowing working with animals. However, communication across these disciplinary perspectives is currently limited, they design programmes, generate results,...
Abstract The Vera C. Rubin Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) holds the potential to revolutionize time domain astrophysics, reaching completely unexplored areas Universe mapping variability scales from minutes a decade. To prepare maximize LSST data for exploration transient variable Universe, one four pillars science, Transient Variable Stars Science Collaboration, eight Collaborations, has identified research interest requirements, paths enable them. While our roadmap is...
Donor lung utilization rates are persistently low primarily due to donor dysfunction. We hypothesized that a treatment enhances the resolution of pulmonary edema by stimulating rate alveolar fluid clearance would improve oxygenation and increase utilization. conducted randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled trial aerosolized albuterol (5mg q4h) versus saline placebo during active management in 506 organ donors.The primary outcome was change arterial partial pressure oxygen/fraction inspired...
Advocates of biomimicry encourage a new industrial paradigm that ostensibly leaves behind the crude violence Francis Bacon, domination nature-as-machine, and history toxic production processes have given rise to present coming climate crisis. As part broader trend towards conceptualization development ‘bioeconomy’, we argue here produces ‘nature’ in ways. At face value, these approaches valuing nature may seem less violent exploitative. Yet, natures can are tortured We through well-worn...
The purpose of this study was to assess the utility social cognition and insight in prediction violence a psychiatric inpatient sample. Violence history, demographic information, symptomatology, neuropsychological functioning, (i.e., attributional style), were assessed 29 inpatients with severe mental illness. Greater posttest associated greater pretest violence, less education, distress, impairment, hostile personalizing biases. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses showed that history...
AbstractThe growing field of biomimicry promises to supplant modern industry's energy-intensive models engineering with a mode production more sensitively attuned nonhuman life and matter. This article considers the revolutionary potentials created by biomimicry's more-than-human collectives their limitations. Although gestures toward radical reontologization repoliticization production, we argue that it remains subject entrenched onto-political habits social relations still dominated...
As both Jane Bennett and William Connolly have argued, time is an ever-present reference point for climate action the Anthropocene. The era characterized by temporal thresholds tipping points as well historic junctures that indicate a radical shift in geo-, bio-, atmospheric processes. In context of prevailing narratives late planetary capitalism Anthropocene, ‘we’ – Western anti-heroes destruction problem with time. Namely, we are ‘running out it’ or already arrived at our ‘last best...
Autonomous Marxism has generated a lexicon for responding to transformations in human labor, particularly around the role of technological development. Autonomists have mapped how conditions post-Fordism put elements mind, sociability, virtuosity—or “the soul” Franco Berardi's terms—to work. But that accordance with capitalist valorization, is nearly always human. At best, it labor supplemented machines. what are we make lively materials—of and nonhuman provenance alike—now at “work”...
While scientific accounts of ocean dynamics draw public attention to the turbulence earthly matter, science alone tells a truncated story. The ocean's turbulent materiality is more than material: practices knowledge and historically embedded meanings metaphors also constitute how we know, understand, attempt govern land alike. Indeed, planetary always located within history politics, Western epistemic structures tied extraction colonialism. Additionally, as ecologies human food systems are...
