Policy design labs and uncertainty: can they innovate, and retain and circulate learning? by Jenny M. Lewis

“…It argues that labs have considerable potential to change the spaces of policymaking at the micro level and innovate, but for learning to be kept rather than lost, innovation needs to be institutionalized in governing structures at higher levels.…”

L’identification des anonymes by Antoine Briand

“…An ethnographic investigation, conducted in an NGO in Hyderabad that works every day to identify those found without identity whether living or dead, shines a light on biosocial and necrosocial inequalities at play in Indian urban spaces. Analysis of the victimology of those who lose their identity, and of the administrative and medical management of their situation, reveals institutional strategies for invisibilising or giving visibility to bodies and anonymous cases. …”

Mapping How Worlds Come to Be by Robert Alexander Gorny

“…Especially in architecture, there is a plethora of studies that often use a cartographic approach to chart various material (trans)formations of planetary spaces, and/or the wider discourses on spatial practices that may serve as the basis for theorising and practicing towards other possible worlds and futures. …”

A Theoretical Framework for Interrogating the Integration of Artificial Intelligence in Education by Tarisayi Kudzayi Savious

“…This paper seeks to provide a theoretical framework for interrogating the integration of AI in education spaces. The paper argues that the eventual response of educators to recent developments in artificial intelligence is eerily like the earlier cycles of integrating ICT in education and, decades earlier, calculators into mathematics instruction. …”

Some Results on Fixed and Best Proximity Points of Precyclic Self-Mappings by M. De la Sen

“…Such self-mappings are defined on the union of a finite set of subsets of uniformly convex Banach spaces under generalized contractive conditions. Each point of a subset is mapped either in some point of the same subset or in a point of the adjacent subset. …”

“The era of the slaves is over”: Gender and work conditions in cleaning businesses in Argentina by Lorena Capogrossi

“…Two aspects were selected: on the one hand, the universe that surrounds the conditions of workers in the sector, including contracting, salaries, the types of tasks that they perform and the high turnover in places of employment; on the other hand, the analysis of some aspects of disciplining that takes place in these spaces. The analyzed dimensions make it possible to characterize the sector as an option that is preferable to other jobs, such as remunerated domestic work, because the relationship of dependency with these businesses grants a certain formality that did not exist before in most work trajectories of the interviewed women. …”

Splicing behaviour of GFRP, BFRP, and steel bars in reinforced concrete beams by Hala Mamdouh, Ahmed Hassan, Nasr Zenhom, Amr Ali, O. A. Mohamed, Amany Salman

“…Twelve reinforced concrete beams were tested, divided into three groups with spliced steel and FRP bars, to analyze the effects of bar type, splice length, and transverse spacing. Key findings indicate that longer splice lengths significantly improve beam behavior, and non-contact splices exhibit better flexural resistance. …”
