Geopolitical challenges of renewable energy adoption in MENA
As Figure 28.1 indicates, the amount and type of renewable capacity developed in the region varies significantly by country.1 In addition, while almost all MENA countries have increased their investments in developing alternative energy resources, the contribution of their renewables to the total global electricity supply does not yet exceed half of one percent (BP, 2021).

As part of the United Kingdom’s response to the escalating HIV/AIDS crisis during the 1980s, special wards and community-based services were established to care for people living with HIV/AIDS (PWHA).

Chapter 4 'Now, back to our Virchow': German Medical and Political Traditions…
When the war was over in 1945, Germany was a country with no government, little functioning infrastructure, millions of refugees and homeless people, and huge foreign armies living largely off the land. Large parts of the country were covered in rubble, with no clean drinking water, electricity, or gas. Hospitals overflowed with patients, but were short of beds, medicines, and medical personnel…

Chapter 4 Norms and Norm Contestation
There are growing connections between the IR constructivist focus on norms and norm contestation and Foreign Policy Analysis (FPA). FPA has long had a focus on agency within the state, particularly individual and group-based decision-making. Early constructivist work, by contrast, tended to prioritize agency outside of the state – focusing on norm entrepreneurs and transnational advocacy– a…

Chapter 13 Rebuilding Relationships between Data, Method, and Theories
In both Management and I/O Psychology, contributions to theory remain an important, and in many cases, sole criterion for evaluating submissions to top journals. In many ways, the definition of theory and the primacy of theory in the organizational sciences is an outlier; in most sciences, articles rarely even mention theories, much less build themselves around advancing theory. We propose that…
