Journal Article
Johnson, M. (2015). Surveillance, pastoral power and embodied infrastructures of care among migrant filipinos in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Surveillance and Society, 13(2), 250-264. https://doi.org/10.24908/ss.v13i2.5339

Surveillance features routinely in discussions of migration in terms of boundary crossing and border policing; that is, of how states and state-like entities seek to limit and control movement, often at a distance. What is less frequently examined is... Read More about Surveillance, pastoral power and embodied infrastructures of care among migrant filipinos in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Journal Article
Wehmeyer, B., Pignatari, M., & Thielemann, F. (2015). Galactic evolution of rapid neutron capture process abundances: The inhomogeneous approach. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 452(2), 1970-1981. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv1352

For the origin of heavy r-process elements, different sources have been proposed, e.g., core-collapse supernovae or neutron star mergers. Old metal-poor stars carry the signature of the astrophysical source(s). Among the elements dominantly made by t...

From Foucault (1977) through to Cohen (1985) and Feeley and Simon (1992) criminological thinking about punishment has been dominated by penal rationalities of power and control. This has led to an under-theorised notion of the individual in criminolo...
