In this paper we argue that it is both necessary possible address each five core critiques which recent criticism has focused: normativity; negative objectification migrants as ‘other’; outdated imaginary society; methodological nationalism; a narrow focus factors shaping processes. We provide definition integration, revised heuristic model ‘effectors’ shown shape them, contribution constructive debate ways these challenges for empirical can overcome.

متن کاملCrossbar Addressing Using Core-Shell Nanowires
The nanowire crossbar is a promising nanotechnology for assembling memories and circuits. In both, a small number of lithographically produced mesoscale wires (MWs) must control a large number of nanoscale wires (NWs). Previous strategies for achieving this have been vunerable to misalignment. In this paper, we introduce core-shell NWs, which eliminate misalignment errors. We also give a two-st...
