Perceived Age Discrimination Across Age in Europe: From an Ageing Society to a Society for All Ages

We test for approximate measurement invariance across countries. We ...

It has been argued th...

Large blocks of force interact in order to force defeat by a process of wearing away the other. This is no longer so relevant as a way of conceptualising warfare, and we generalise the approach so that it is more appropriate to the “informatio...
