The Glasgow case: meat, disease and regulation, 1889-1924 (2004)
Journal Article
Atkins, P. (2004). The Glasgow case: meat, disease and regulation, 1889-1924. Agricultural History Review, 52(2), 161-182

Contemporary estimates indicate that a substantial proportion of the indigenous beef consumed in Britain in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries came from tuberculous animals. If properly cooked, this meat presented less of a risk to hum... Read More about The Glasgow case: meat, disease and regulation, 1889-1924.

Journal Article
Curtis, S., Southall, H., Congdon, P., & Dodgeon, B. (2004). Area effects on health variation over the life-course: analysis of the longitudinal study sample in England using new data on area of residence in childhood. Social Science & Medicine, 58(1), 57-74. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0277-9536%2803%2900149-7

There is a growing literature which demonstrates that (a) conditions throughout the life-course are important for health outcomes in older people and (b) ‘contextual’ conditions in the place of residence, as well as individual characteristics influen...

Numerical modeling of flow processes over gravelly-surfaces using structured grids and a numerical porosity treatment (2004)
Journal Article
Lane, S., Hardy, R., Ingham, D., & Elliott, L. (2004). Numerical modeling of flow processes over gravelly-surfaces using structured grids and a numerical porosity treatment. Water Resources Research, 40(1), Article W01302. https://doi.org/10.1029/2002wr001934

This article describes the development and validation of a method for representing the complex surface topography of gravel bed rivers in high-resolution three-dimensional computational fluid dynamic models. This is based on a regular structured grid... Read More about Numerical modeling of flow processes over gravelly-surfaces using structured grids and a numerical porosity treatment.

'CCTV, Risk Management and Regulation Mechanisms in Publicly-Used Places: a Discussion Based on Swiss Examples' (2004)
Journal Article
Ruegg, J., November, V., & Klauser, F. (2004). 'CCTV, Risk Management and Regulation Mechanisms in Publicly-Used Places: a Discussion Based on Swiss Examples'. Surveillance & Society, 2(2/3), 415-429

This paper focuses on the relations between different types of actors involved in both conceiving and using video-surveillance systems. More specifically, it deals with the reasons that support the growing use of video-surveillance systems, and the o...

Weathering the storm: convergence, divergence and the robustness of the worlds of welfare (2004)
Journal Article
Bambra, C. (2004). Weathering the storm: convergence, divergence and the robustness of the worlds of welfare. Social policy journal, 3(3), 3-23. https://doi.org/10.1300/j185v03n03_02

Esping-Andersen's 'three worlds of welfare' typology has been the subject of an intensive and unrelenting academic debate for the past decade. This debate has been fairly extensive in its, overwhelmingly negative, evaluation but it has ignored what i...

'A Comparison of the Impact of Protective and Preservative Video Surveillance on Urban Territoriality: the case of Switzerland' (2004)
Journal Article
Klauser, F. (2004). 'A Comparison of the Impact of Protective and Preservative Video Surveillance on Urban Territoriality: the case of Switzerland'. Surveillance & Society, 2(2/3), 145-160

This paper focuses on a comparison between two forms of video-surveillance and their consequences for the territoriality of public space users: the preservative, which aims to preserve public order and to prevent ‘antisocial’ behaviour; and the prote...
