Our focus of attention is on the antagonisms and solidarities produced across different social positions within current mobilizations around housing.

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…

Chapter 17 The Racial Contours of Queer Reproduction
In this chapter, we bring queer theory into dialogue with critical race studies. We ask “How does the literature in queer kinship engage with the issues of race and intersecting inequalities?’’ This chapter builds upon the foundational literature in queer family studies. It departs from the foundational literature in the anthropology of reproduction by placing the role that racial hierarc…

Chapter 17 Samhandling and Trust in Military Leadership Structures
"The purpose of this chapter is to discuss the importance of trust in military samhandling. Trust serves as one of the main prerequisites for effective collaboration (Kouzes & Posner, 2003). The Norwegian Armed Forces’ (NAF) core business is the planning and execution of military operations (Forsvarsstaben, 2014). One of the main tasks of the NAF is to plan for the unexpected and, ultimately,…

Chapter 17 Researching Family Lives, Schooling and Structural Inequality in R…
This chapter advances a novel theoretic-methodological approach to the analysis of qualitative data. The aim is to achieve a deeper understanding of the relationship between social inequality and educational outcomes in post-colonial rural Southern contexts. It operationalises the Habitus Listening Guide (Arnot & Naveed, 2014) derived from Bourdieu’s theory of cultural reproduction and contem…
