    Affective equality : who cares?

    No full text
    Human beings are not just economic actors, devoid of relationality; rather, they are interdependent and dependent with a deep capacity for moral feeling and attaching. The presumption that people are mere units of labour, movable from one country to another as production requires, is therefore an institutionalised form of affective injustice. As love, care and solidarity involve work, affective inequalities also occur when the burdens and benefits of these forms of work are unequally distributed. Affective inequality is an acutely gendered problem given the moral imperative on women to care, and an acute problem for all of humanity given that vulnerability and inter/dependency is endemic to the human condition.Not applicableEmbargo until Feb 2011 - AV 20/9/2010 ti,ke.kpw27/9/10 Released 11/3/11 - O

    A Clinical Audit of a Lynch Syndrome referral protocol

    No full text
    Approximately 14% of patients with colorectal cancer have tumours that exhibit a deficiency in mismatch repair (MMR) genes, of which 3% have Lynch syndrome where the mutations have germline origin. Lynch syndrome is associated with significant lifetime cancer risks, so early diagnosis is required to optimise outcomes (Vasen et al 2015). Previously family history assessment was used to identify individuals with Lynch syndrome, but a significant proportion were not identified due to familial heterogeneity.; therefore routine MMR immunohistochemistry testing of resected tumours (from patients with primary colorectal cancer aged 18 to 70 years old) has been practiced at a local NHS Trust since 2012. The primary aim of this testing was to inform treatment decision making, since the use of adjuvant chemotherapy is not beneficial in treating MMR deficient tumours. As a result of this testing, individuals with Lynch syndrome have been identified. Previous data suggests that only a small propo

    From form to process: Re-conceptualizing Lynch in light of complexity theory

    New Urbanism’s disposition towards urban design emphasizes creating places that, in part, derive structure and meaning from ‘imageable’ components. These components resonate with the formal categories articulated by Kevin Lynch. That is to say, New Urbanist projects emphasize defined streets (edges) neighborhood coherence (districts) civic buildings (landmarks) connective public open spaces (nodes) and gridiron street networks (paths). Lynch, however, deemed that such urban features arose from dynamic processes, whereas New Urbanists pre-designate formal features without full consideration of their functional dynamics. In order to better situate this notion of ‘functional dynamics’, this paper argues that urban settings can be considered as examples of complex adaptive systems (CAS). The paper re-purposes Lynch’s formal categories to discuss CAS dynamics in urban settings, with processes rather than forms providing the essential mechanisms with which to achieve the conviviality NU projects aspire to.This article is from Urban Design International (2017), doi:10.1057/s41289-017-0048-6.</p
