People on the Move: Traveling Identities between the US and the Caribbean in the early 20th Century
Get PDFDie vorliegende kulturhistorische Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit Transfers zwischen den USA und dem karibischen Raum im frühen 20. Jahrhundert und untersucht Prozesse schwarzer Selbstbehauptung entlang der Reisebewegungen dreier historischer Akteure: James Weldon Johnson, Zora Neale Hurston und Amy Jacques Garvey, die sich als Diplomat, politische Aktivistin und Wissenschaftlerin zwischen den USA und der Karibik bewegten. Vor dem Hintergrund der in den USA und dem karibischen Raum zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts verschiedentlich praktizierten rassistischen Klassifizierungen werden die individuellen Reiseerfahrungen insbesondere in Hinblick auf die darin aufscheinenden Vorstellungen von Race und Geschlecht sowie deren Effekte für die Handlungsmöglichkeiten der Akteure untersucht.Ever since the establishment of the transatlantic slave trade, the Caribbean Islands and North America have been interrelated regions connected by exchanges of commodities, ideas and the movement of people. Approaching these movements from a microperspective, the dissertation focuses on black individuals who traveled back and forth between the US and the Carribean in the early 20th century. It follows the tracks of James Weldon Johnson, Amy Jacques Garvey, Zora Neale Hurston who crossed the Caribbean Sea as diplomats, political activists, and scientists. Inspired by postcolonial theory and postmodern thinkers such as Michel Foucault, Judith Butler, Stuart Hall or Paul Gilroy and his concept of a Black Atlantic, the work examines the various entanglements between transatlantic traveling and identity formation especially in terms of race and gender, the struggle against racism as well as the creation of a black diaspora
Ten Emotions Examined Through Videoclips: Boredom, Revulsion, Sadness, Pain, Fear, Haste, Aggression, Geborgenheit (something like Comfort), Joy, Equanimity
No full textArt and science often face each other as antipodes in the academic world. They differ fundamentally in their methodical approach. Artistic work aims at the precise analysis and understanding of subjective thoughts and feelings. In contrast, science is theory-driven and focused on objective findings and generalizable results. This archive was created to bring both into discourse.
It includes:
- A description of a an artistic-research process that explored the understanding of ten emotions (Zeißig, A. (2018). The Creative Act as a Mode of Research: Ten Emotions - Ten Films. Weinböhla: edition neuhaus. http://dx.doi.org/10.23668/psycharchives.4852).
- A database of ten developed videos exploring the emotions of boredom, revulsion, sadness, pain, fear, haste, aggression, comfort, joy and equanimity (Zeißig, A. (2018). Database of Ten Emotions - Ten Films. Weinböhla: edition neuhaus. http://dx.doi.org/10.23668/psycharchives.4851).
- The result of a first empirical study to investigate the induction of intended emotions (Zeißig, A. (2019-07-17). Ten Emotions - Ten Films [Poster presentation]. International Society for Research on Emotion Conference, University of Amsterdam. PsychArchives. http://dx.doi.org/10.23668/psycharchives.4853).
The project is looking for interested researchers and collaborations to further test the videos. Since the videos are language-free and free of culture or time specific elements, narration or dramaturgy it would be interesting to cooperate transnationally and international to discuss the development of culture-free emotion induction methods.This is a secondary publication of: Zeißig, A.

The evolution of the innovation network and the technological system in a standard developing organization. The example of cellular telecommunications
No full textStandard developing organizations (SDOs) are voluntary inter-organizational collaborations with the goal to develop jointly compatibility standards for complex modular technological systems. This dissertation examines the evolution of the innovation network and technological system in a SDO with the perspective of complementing micro and macro level. The dissertation is rooted in the multidisciplinary complex system theory and draws on a broad range of literature from management, sociology, biology and physics with the common theme of bipartite network analysis. The innovation network is conceptualized as a bipartite network with ties between organizations and innovations to which they contribute. I show that technical capital, resources in the SDO and their match between organization and innovation, rather than social capital, network position, drive the tie formation in the innovation network. To answer the question of emerging order in an innovation ecology without formal hierarchy I borrow from the literature of ecological mutualistic networks. I show that a nested order emerges based on a parsimonious process of matching resources, that leads to a rather stable system over more than ten years. The evolution of the technological system in the SDO environment departs from the established life cycle model and is best described by a life spiral model with continuously increasing system performance rather than punctuated equilibria. The key distinction to market-based technological evolution is the coordinated and designed development process within the SDO, that allows to introduce new services and change core parts of the system based on architectural knowledge. As a consequence the development process follows a gradual change model with changing tempo. Furthermore the evolution is characterized by simultaneity of innovation types that identifies the SDO as ambidextrous organization with separation of exploitation and exploration on project level. The research context is Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) in the cellular telecommunications industry with data from 1992 to 2011.Ph.

Correction to: Exponential stability of impulsive stochastic genetic regulatory networks with time-varying delays and reaction-diffusion
No full textAbstract In the publication of this article (Cao et al. in Adv. Differ. Equ. 2017:307, 2017), there was an error that the author Anke Meyer-Baese was missing. Anke Meyer-Baese contributed towards the methodological design, study concept, the biological interpretation of the parameters of the systems and the writing of the system’s description. Omission is due to an oversight. This has now been included in this erratum
External interventions and the duration of civil wars
Get PDFThe authors combine an empirical model of external intervention, with a theoretical model of civil war duration. Their empirical model of intervention allows them to analyze civil war duration, using"expected"rather than"actual"external intervention as an explanatory variable in the duration model. Unlike previous studies, they find that external intervention is positively associated with the duration of civil war. They distinguish partial third-party interventions that extend the length of war, from multilateral"peace"operations, which have a mandate to restore peace without taking sides - and which typically take place at war's end, or at least when both sides have agreed to a cease-fire. In a future paper, the authors will examine whether partial third-party interventions - whatever their effect on a war's duration - increase the risk of war's recurrence. If that proves true, then even if interventions reduce the length of civil war, they may do so at the cost of further destabilizing the political system, and sowing the seeds of future rebellion.Children and Youth,Peace&Peacekeeping,Post Conflict Reconstruction,Post Conflict Reconstruction,International Affairs,Post Conflict Reconstruction,Social Conflict and Violence,Peace&Peacekeeping,Post Conflict Reconstruction,International Affairs
