This essay introduces a new featured section, to be published in Small Axe annually, that explores the critical vocabulary of field Caribbean studies.

Abstract “Queer” is a relatively recent and somewhat controversial term in African studies. Yet it proving to be productive, not only for understanding subjectivities of sexuality gender, but also situating Africa’s position the larger economy knowledge. Otu van Klinken explore productive tensions between “queer” “Africa,” aim read Africa as queer from Africa. Thus, rather than imagining polar ...

In this paper, we examine whether extreme oil dependence for Saudi Arabia is the symptom of Dutch Disease. We first provide a brief review of the literature on Dutch Disease and the natural resource curse. We then discuss the sym...

Bereits vorhandene Systeme und Räume können dabei weiter genutzt werden, werden aber unaufdringlich um einen Mehrwert angereichert – so entsteht ein Anreiz, sich auch als „ganz normaler Lehrender oder Lernender“ sukzes...

We present a family of indecomposable polynomials of non prime-power degree over the finite field of three elements which are permutation polynomials over infinitely many finite extensions of the field. The associated geometric monodromy groups are the simple groups PSL2(3 ), where k≥3 is odd. This realizes one of the few possibilities for such a family which remain following the deep work of F...
