Insight through participation. Bridging the gap between cultural anthropology, cultural studies and music education.

In the last decades there has been an increased influence of ethnomusicology in music education research. This is reflected in the activities of international associations such as International Society for Music Education (ISME), International Music Council (IMC) and Cultural Diversity in Music Education (CDIME), as well as in a growing body of research (e.g. Drummond, 2005; Schippers, 2010; Szego

Christian Masculinity : Men and Religion in Northern Europe in the 19th and 20th Centuries

Christianity has markedly patriarchal traits, and by tradition men have played the dominant role in the affairs of all churches. Men ran the churches, and the clergy long remained exclusively male, but at the parochial level women began to dominate more and more. In middle-class, liberal, anti-clerical, and socialist circles, the exercise of religion became identified as a female concern. But was

A 10-bit pipeline ADC using 40-dB opamps and calibrated customized references

A 10-bit pipeline A/D converter using low gain (<= 40 dB) operational amplifiers (opamps) is presented. Without. interfering the normal analog-to-digital conversion, a continuous reference refreshing technique is exploited. This technique effectively reduces the gain requirement of opamp while the conversion speed is not compromised, allowing the use of simple cascode CMOS inverters. The compensat

Institutional Quality, Trust and Stock-Market Participation: Learning to Forget

We explore the relation between institutional quality, trust and stock-market participation. In our theoretical model, agents update their beliefs in a Bayesian manner based on observations on frauds and choose whether to invest in the stock market. The corresponding empirical model shows that institutional quality affects trust and that the part of trust that is explained by institutional quality

Shells in the sand. Poças de São Bento – a Mesolithic shell midden by the River Sado, Southern Portugal.

The study of large settlement sites with graves from the Late Mesolithic has changed our conception of this period. In western Europe sites of this kind have long been known, and are well represented in the coastal area of western Iberia. One of these sites is Poças de São Bento, located near the River Sado in southern Portugal. The results of the excavation give interesting perspectives on specif
