Political strategies to overcome climate policy obstructionism by Srivastav, S, Rafaty, R

“…From this we deduce a set of strategies for how the climate movement competes against entrenched hydrocarbon interests. Five strategies for overcoming obstructionism emerge: (1) appeasement, which involves compensating the losers; (2) co-optation, which seeks to instigate change by working with incumbents; (3) institutionalism, which involves changes to public institutions to support decarbonization; (4) antagonism, which creates reputational or litigation costs to inaction; and (5) countervailance, which makes low-carbon alternatives more competitive. …”

Motivated knowledge acquisition: implicit self-theories and the preference for knowledge breadth or depth by Crolic, C, Clarkson, JJ, Otto, AS, Murphy, MC

“…Specifically, we propose that incremental theorists prefer knowledge that expands their understanding of diverse experiences within a category (i.e., knowledge breadth), whereas entity theorists prefer knowledge that refines their understanding of a preferred experience within a category (i.e., knowledge depth). Five studies show the effect of implicit self-theories on individuals’ preferences for knowledge breadth and depth and the role of learning and performance goals in motivating these knowledge preferences. …”

Bach performance practice in the late French Romantic Organ School: a study of Welte organ roll recordings by Holman, C

“…However, written sources can only give generalities of performance practice. The extremely fine details of timing, articulation, registration, and more can be seen in the medium of organ rolls by the Welte Company of Freiburg im Breisgau, which can not only reproduce performances today that sound identical to what the recording artist heard, but be analysed in extreme detail.…”
