YaSoFo - Yet Another SOlar Fuels Optimizer
No full textYaSoFo was created in the search for a tool that extends detailed-balance calculations, which are common in photovoltaics to understand and improve solar cells, to solar fuel applications. The idea is that any parameter, from light absorption in the electrolyte over catalyst performance to electrochemical load can be varied in a scriptable loop. In doing so, one can determine the efficiency-limiting bottlenecks of a solar fuel device. The implementation in Python makes the tool platform-independent and easily extensible.
The software is hosted at https://codeberg.org/photon/YaSoFo.v1.4.1 is a major update that includes new functions for effects of water layers on theoretical efficiencies

Fault and fracture? The impact of new directions in Comparative Capitalisms research on the wider field
No full textThere is no abstract, but this is a representative paragraph from the introduction: 'This chapter will, after a brief reprise of the VoC debate, focus on how mainstream CC scholarship is now coming under pressure from a range of different sources. What unites these alternatives to the mainstream is their wish to engage in CC research in a different manner: conscious and critical of capitalism, but remaining aware of how it exists in multiple forms across the world. The current volume, in explicitly giving centre-stage to several of these new directions, is part of this desired shift towards alternative forms of CC scholarship. As will become clear in the present chapter as well as elsewhere in the volume, this does not entail either the abandonment of the study of institutions in regionally, nationally and locally specific contexts or of attempts to elaborate typological theories of capitalism. Rather, most authors acknowledge that a deep understanding of institutions, and the development of typologies as potentially powerful analytical tools, can help us to understand capitalist diversity on a global scale (see especially the chapters by May and Nölke, Wehr, and Drahokoupil and Myant). Nevertheless, the impact of these new directions as they begin to unfold – both through articulating their critique of mainstream CC perspectives and through developing alternative lines of research and theorization – will undoubtedly have other consequences for the field as it is presently constituted.

Comparative Capitalisms research and the emergence of critical, global perspectives
No full textThere is no abstract, but this is a representative paragraph from the introduction: 'In a nutshell, the intellectual project which the present book pursues can be described as one of contributing to the development of a new generation of CC scholarship which is simultaneously conscious and critical of capitalism, and has a genuinely global horizon.
Towards a critical, global Comparative Political Economy
No full textThere is no abstract, but this is a representative paragraph from the introduction: 'What unites the different chapters is that they transcend the previously near-hegemonic position of Hall and Soskice’s Varieties of Capitalism (VoC) approach. This means that the gravitational pull exerted by VoC’s founding principles – an emphatic focus on the national level and on the influence of institutional factors relating to business behaviour and economic efficiency – is weakening (see Coates and Bruff et al. in this volume). Where ‘second generation’ attempts at renewing the VoC approach had given rise to mere ‘incremental’ theoretical innovations without hurting the theoretical core of the approach, the chapters which have formed part of this collection respond – each in their own way – to the observations made by David Coates in his chapter. That is, such incremental refinement of VoC and similar approaches will not help us to understand the present reality of capitalist crisis and contestation and even the possible return of capitalist models to their established trajectories.
