Essays on blood supply management by Senga, Juan Ramon Liboro

“…The results show that more mature blood banks have more strategies available at their disposal when it comes to trying to maintain fill-rates. We also observe that the dynamic donation rate strategy results in lower fill-rates during disasters when the fill-rate is low despite being able to meet donation targets, and that multiple waves with short lead times exacerbate this effect. …”

Creating a literary koine: how Gavin Douglas translates repetition in the Eneados by Bushnell, M

“…Gavin Douglas’s ‘Eneados’ is notable both for being the first, direct, full translation of Virgil’s ‘Aeneid’ and Maffeo Vegio’s ‘Supplement’, and its extreme fidelity to Virgil’s text, though this fidelity is often at odds with Douglas’s poetic interpolation. …”

Legal politics in the Libyan constitution-making process by van Lier, F

“…This is what happened in Libya, developing into what I call <em>legal politics</em>. Understanding the dynamics of <em>legal politics</em> raises questions about the assumptions of those who advocate constitution-making in post-conflict situations and casts doubt on the technocratic vision that states can be <em>built</em> in a rational and orderly fashion.…”
