Introduction to the Special Issue on the Intersections of Race, Gender, and Class in the Wake of a National Crisis: The State of Black Boys and Men Post-Ferguson [Editorial]

This introduction to the special issue will ground our understanding of the current state of Black boys and men in America, nearly 2 years after the killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. Each of these articles represents the voices of scholars whose influences add clarity to the experiences and aftermath of traumatic events that threaten the safety and well-being of Black boys and men. Collectively, these articles showcase various research methods; address individual, family, and community issues; and demonstrate how race, gender, and class influence how the assorted levels of society interact with Black males. This special issue is an important contribution to raising awareness of and enacting social change for Black boys and men in our nation.https://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/150669/1/Editorial Watkins Patton Miller 2016 Introduction to the special issue on the intersections of race gender and class in the wake of a national crisis.pdfDescription of Editorial Watkins Patton Miller 2016 Introduction to the special issue on the intersections of race gender and class in the wake of a national crisis.pdf : Guest Editorial to Special Issu

Editor's welcome, PORTAL, Vol. 2, No. 2, July 2005

Welcome to the July 2005 issue of Portal, a special issue with the title ‘Strange Localities: Utopias, Intellectuals and Identities in the 21st Century,’ guest edited by Alistair Fox and Hilary Radner (both from the University of Otago, New Zealand), who convened an international colloquium on this theme in January 2004, and Murray Pratt (University of Technology Sydney, Australia). As Alistair Fox says in his introduction to the special issue, the twelve papers gathered under the ‘Strange Localities’ rubric provide rich insights into the ways by which ‘the contemporary utopian impulse is expressing itself, both in the search for utopia, and through the exposure of false utopias.’ With a broad geographical reach, and an equally broad critical gaze, the essays collected here shed new light on the critical, yet often ambivalent, role that identity politics play in myriad utopian projects, and also in such critical enterprises and epoch-defining processes as postcolonialism, postfeminism, postmodernism, transnationalism, multiculturalism, and economic and cultural globalization. In addition to the papers collected in the special issue section, this issue of Portal includes a number of essays that, while not addressing the special issue theme, also have much to say about the nexus between contemporary identity debates, intellectual practice, and utopian imaginaries. We are also pleased to introduce in the Portal Cultural Works' section two short chronicle-like pieces by Moses Iten, a young Australian writer. Paul Allatson, Chair, PORTAL Editorial Committe

Guest editorial : Introduction to the special issue on connected vehicles in intelligent transportation systems

Connected vehicles (CVs) are one of the critical components of intelligent transportation systems. CVs enable any vehicle to act as a smart node that collects and shares information on vehicles, roads, and their surroundings. This information can then be distributed to other vehicles via vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication, and also to road users via vehicle-to-human (V2H) communication, for an improved driving experience. The information can also be forwarded toward traffic control systems via vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication, for improved traffic management and road safety. Making use of of connected vehicles in intelligent transportation systems will revolutionize the way we drive. Many issues, however, need to be resolved to achieve better performance of connected vehicles. Improvements relate to data processing and storage, the development of standards and regulations across all platforms, design and deployment of new communication protocols and system architectures, and the creation and introduction of new services and applications.http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/RecentIssue.jsp?punumber=6979hj2018Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineerin

Indigenous research sovereignties: Sparking the deeper conversations we need

This article is part of the Environment and Planning F: Philosophy, Theory, Models, Methods and Practice special issue on ‘Indigenous Research Sovereignty’, edited by Jay T. Johnson, Joseph P. Brewer II., Melissa K. Nelson, Mark H. Palmer, and Renee Pualani Louis.This article seeks to spark a conversation and further debate through the 15 papers and 3 commentaries comprising this special issue entitled “Indigenous Research Sovereignty.” By inviting the authors to publish in this special edition and address Indigenous Research Sovereignty from a variety of viewpoints, we have brought together a collection that inspires, transforms, and expands on the ways in which Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers are engaging with Indigenous communities to address the research agendas of communities across the globe. Through our work together over the past 8 years, the editorial team have identified eight themes within this broad concept of Indigenous Research Sovereignty. This article provides an introduction to those eight themes in the broadest strokes, while the papers and commentaries explore and refine them with significant depth. We seek to spark a conversation, we do not intend to provide answers to any of the dilemma facing Indigenous communities as they engage, or choose not to engage, in research. Our primary goal is to express an all-encompassing concern for the protection of Indigenous Communities’ inherent rights and knowledges.The author(s) disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: The guest editors acknowledge financial support for the FIRST Network by the United States National Science Foundation through grant number 1417767
