Chapter 17: The early roots of the digital divide: socioeconomic inequality i…
Information and communications technology (ICT) skills are crucial for labour market success and full participation in society. Socioeconomic status (SES) inequality in the development of ICT skills would prevent disadvantaged children from reaping the benefits of the digital age. Besides, the digital divide in ICT literacy might add to the already well-documented large and persistent SES inequ…

Chapter 11 Charge Carrier Dynamics in Organometal Halide Perovskite Probed by…
This chapter presents the fate of the charge carriers from the moment of its photogeneration in the perovskite to injection and transport into electrodes. Time-resolved electrical measurement techniques, terahertz (THz) spectroscopy and microwave (MW) conductivity, are primarily used to deconvolute ultrafast processes and to directly access behavior of charged species from the ps to µs timesca…

Chapter 11 Care in the Cage
This chapter adopts a historical perspective to explore how material infrastructures have structured human–animal relationships within the biomedical “animal house,” c.1945 to the present. It argues material infrastructures serve to structure the multiple values that have informed and shaped human–animal relations within the experimental biomedical sciences. By exploring how multispecie…

Chapter 11 Antagonisms and solidarities in housing movements in Bucharest and…
This chapter investigates housing contention in Bucharest and Budapest in the period after the 2008 financial crisis. Our focus of attention is on the antagonisms and solidarities produced across different social positions within current mobilizations around housing. To account for the complexity of housing contention that we observe, we draw on the ‘field of contention’ notion, focusing sp…

Chapter 11 Ancient Infrastructure Offers Sustainable Agricultural Solutions t…
In arid and semiarid landscapes, water is the primary limiting resource for human activity and ecosystem functioning. More than 40% of the world’s population lives in dryland environments (White and Nackoney, 2003). In these landscapes annual rainfall can vary greatly and be highly unpredictable both in space and time. Longer intervals between precipitation events are also highly erratic and …

Chapter 17: Made to measure: how central banks deliver performances of their …
Central banking is frequently considered a prototype case of governance subject to continuous and public performance measurement. However, central banks’ near-exclusive preoccupation with preserving price stability as the overriding measure of success of their monetary policy is a rather recent (post-1970s) fabrication - and one that has come under increasing strain since the ‘unconventiona…

Chapter 17 Visualization and Functional Analysis of Spindle Actin and Chromos…
Chromosome segregation is conserved throughout eukaryotes. In most systems, it is solely driven by a spindle machinery that is assembled from microtubules. We have recently discovered that actin filaments that are embedded inside meiotic spindles (spindle actin) are needed for accurate chromosome segregation in mammalian oocytes. To understand the function of spindle actin in oocyte meiosis, we…
