Epistemic Roots, Universal Routes and Ontological Roofs of African “Ritual Archives”: Disciplinary Formations in African Thought by Oluwatoyin Vincent Adepoju

“…This is a heuristic rather than an attempt at a definitive distinction and is derived from the relationship between my practical and theoretical investigation of Yoruba epistemology and Falola’s exploration, in “Ritual Archives”, of a particularly strategic aspect of òrìṣà cosmology represented by Esu. The distinction I advance between Yoruba philosophy and òrìṣà cosmology and the effort to map their interrelations is useful in categorizing and critically analyzing various postulates that constitute classical Yoruba thought. …”

Rips and regular future scenario with holographic dark energy: a comprehensive look by I. Brevik, Maxim Khlopov, S. D. Odintsov, Alexander V. Timoshkin, Oem Trivedi

“…Holographic dark energy (HDE) presents a very interesting approach towards addressing late-time acceleration, presenting an intriguing interface of ideas from quantum gravity and cosmology. In this work we present an extensive discussion of possible late-time scenarios, focusing on rips and similar events, in a universe with holographic dark energy. …”

Matter Instability in Theories with Modified Induced Gravity by Kourosh Nozari, Faeze Kiani

“…Matter stability is a necessary condition to have a cosmologically viable model. Modified gravity in the spirit of f(R) theories suffers from matter instability in some subdomains of the model parameter space. …”

Grappling With Complexity in Research with the Military Police The Far-Right and Anthropology’s Civilizing Mission by Tomás Salem

“…It discusses how anthropologists can describe police officers in ways that avoid the pitfalls of binary thinking: of reproducing a cosmology of war that assumes a strict division between good and evil and instead produce accounts that hold space for complexity and change, without assuming a moral relativist position.…”

A diferença que faz a diferença: originais e cópias Guarani-Mbya by Gustavo Godoy, Miguel Carid

“…Using a structural analysis of a group of guarani-mbya narratives protagonized by the Kuaray (or Nhanderu) anda Xariã, this text looks into the diverse meanings of the duality original/copy, a fundamental pairing in the socio-cosmology of this people. If Kuaray (or Nhanderu) and their originary forms may be identified with divinity and with the Mbya, Xariã and the exaggerate duplicates, on the other hand, lean towards the excessiveness of the white man’s world. …”
