The Erosion of Southern Europe's Middle Classes
Our article examines the position of middle classes in the social reproduction of southern European political economies in the light of the sovereign debt crisis. The first part analyses the rise of middle classes in southern...
Introduction
CCTs arguably constitute the most evaluated social programmes of recent years. Academic literature based on quantitative research has already highlighted the positive short-term effects on consumption levels, school attendance...
Society, social policy and welfare
This report provides an overview of recent and current research in the field of society, social policy and welfare in the European Union. It identifies the contributions of four sub-fields of research in, respectively...

Detached, Hostile, Adaptable and Liberalising
In this article, we review the EU’s significance for social policies in the UK. The EU has a limited legal role or institutional capacity to directly regulate the social policies of its member states. This role is even more...
Rattling Europe's ordoliberal ‘iron cage’
This article explains the popular revolt against austerity in Southern Europe as the outcome of profound politico-economic changes that are shaped by the transformation of the European Union’s (EU’s) macro-economic governance....

Does supramolecular ordering influence exciton transport in conjugated systems? Insight from atomistic simulations
Theodoros A Papadopoulos, Luca Muccioli, Stavros Athanasopoulos, Alison B. Walker, Claudio Zannoni, David Beljonne
Jun 01, 2011
We have developed a theoretical platform for modelling temperature-dependent exciton transport in organic materials, using indenofluorene trimers as a case study. Our atomistic molecular dynamics simulations confirm the...

A Systems Approach to Understanding Geopolitical Tensions in the Middle East in the Face of a Global Water Shortage
Theo Tryfonas, Stylianos Karatzas, Raya Al-Masri, Theodoros Spyridopoulos, Vasiliki Lazari
Oct 01, 2021
In this paper the potential for conflict in the Middle East due to the depleting of regional water reserves is explored and the implications for regional policy making, in the light of other tensions are investigated. We use...
