Crustal Accretion of Thick, Mafic Crust in Iceland: Implications for Volcanic Rifted Margins
No full textRifting near hotspots results in mantle melting to create thick, mafic igneous crust at Volcanic Rifted Margins (VRMs). This mafic crust is transitional between rifted continental crust with mafic intrusions landward and oceanic crust into which it grades seaward. Seismic velocities, crustal drilling, and exhumed margins show that the upper crust in these areas is composed of basaltic lava erupted in subaerial to submarine conditions intruded by downward increasing proportions of dikes and sparse gabbroic intrusions. The lower crust of these regions is not exposed but is inferred from seismic velocities (Vp>6.5 km/sec) and petrological constraints to be gabbroic to ultramafic in composition. Limited access to crustal sections generated along VRMs have raised questions regarding the composition and structure of this transitional crust and how it evolves during the early stages of rifting and subsequent seafloor spreading. Active processes in Iceland provide a glimpse of subaerial spreading with the creation of a thick (40-25 km) mafic igneous crust that may be analogous to the transitional crust of VRMs. Segmented rift zones that propagate away from the Iceland hotspot, migrating transform fault zones, and rift-parallel strike-slip faults create a complex plate boundary zone in the upper, brittle crust. These structures may be decoupled from underlying lower crustal gabbroic rocks that are capable of along-axis flow that smooths-out crustal thickness variations. Similar processes may be characteristic of the early history of VRMs and volcanic hotspot ridges related to rifting and seafloor spreading proximal to hotspots.The accepted manuscript in pdf format is listed with the files at the bottom of this page.

An Ethnographer in Poland: On Experience as a Mode of Engaging Jewishness
No full textMuseums have become especially prominent sites of Jewish experience—not only in Poland but elsewhere, including cities with large Jewish populations—as permanent and very publicly visible institutions. Their presence looms large despite the fact that many, if not most, people will visit a given museum only once, spending an hour or two there. Given its scope and salience, the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews is poised to become the keystone in the arch of Polish Jewish experience
Enacting Ethnicity: Yiddishkeit Masked and Unmasked on the Contemporary American Stage
No full textTwo recent productions of American dramas employed provocative strategies for enacting Jewish ethnicity: National Asian American Theatre Company’s performance of Clifford Odets’s Awake and Sing! with an all-Asian American cast and New Yiddish Rep’s staging of Toyt fun a seylsman, a Yiddish translation of Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman. Each production entails a different approach to performing Jewishness that exemplifies these companies’ respective artistic agendas regarding the enactment of ethnicity, resulting in complex performances of masking and unmasking Jewishness. Moreover, their analysis illuminates how ethnicity is conceptualized and realized in the United States in the early decades of the twenty-first century. Yiddish appears strategically, if often obliquely, in the histories of composition, production, and reception for both dramas, emblematic of shifting notions of enacting ethnicity.Peer reviewe
New Insights into Materialism and Conspicuous Consumption in China
No full textThis paper provides insights based on recent literature and findings that relate to materialism and conspicuous consumption among Chinese consumers. There is a specific focus on gender related issues and implications on consumer well-being.
