Plastic hospitality: The empty signifier at the EU’s Mediterranean border

The Mediterranean Plastic Soup: synthetic polymers in Mediterranean surface waters

The Mediterranean Sea has been recently proposed as one of the most impacted regions of the world with regards to microplastics, however the polymeric composition of these floating particles is still largely unknown. Here we present the results of a large-scale survey of neustonic micro- and meso-plastics floating in Mediterranean waters, providing the first extensive characterization of their ...

Plastic Accumulation in the Mediterranean Sea

Concentrations of floating plastic were measured throughout the Mediterranean Sea to assess whether this basin can be regarded as a great accumulation region of plastic debris. We found that the average density of plastic (1 item per 4 m2), as well as its frequency of occurrence (100% of the sites sampled), are comparable to the accumulation zones described for the five subtropical ocean gyres....

Trouble at the Border ?

The present study addresses three main questions: 1) Are schedule control and job autonomy associated differently with the work-home interface? 2) Do schedule control and job autonomy interact with different forms of work-home role blurring to influence levels of work-to-home conflict? 3) Do any of these observed patterns of association differ for women and men? We apply and refine a gender vie...
