In the past 20 years, there has been growing interest in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in people with intellectual disabilities. It is now widely recognised that individuals with intellectual disabilities are more likely to be affected by traumatic experiences than those without. The authors discuss advancements in understanding trauma and PTSD in individuals with intellectual disabilities, as well as improvements in clinical assessment and treatment. They also emphasise the need for further research into the effects of trauma and PTSD on this vulnerable and often marginalised population.

Although some modern popular songs are deliberately composed for the purpose of commentary or protest, most are produced for commercial reasons. However, such songs may nonetheless be adopted by political, cultural, and social movements, and in these cases, fans’ participatory meaning-making has an important role in the songs’ new purpose. Taking the 1935 Korean ballad ‘Tears of Mokp’o’ as a representative example, this article traces how the melancholy love song acquired successive layers of meaning against the backdrop of changing politico-economic contexts throughout the twentieth century. Drawing on political, popular music, and sports histories, I first examine how ‘Tears of Mokp’o’ became known as an anti-colonial anthem under Japanese rule, a position that persisted in postwar South Korea. I then investigate the ways in which fans of the Haitai Tigers, a professional baseball team, utilized the song to express a complex set of emotions and commitments regarding their politically oppressed and economically neglected home region of Chŏlla. Against the backdrop of their traumatic memories of the 1980 Kwangju Uprising, Haitai fans, through their collective singing of ‘Tears of Mok’po’ in stadiums during games, transformed it from a colonial-era pop hit/anti-colonial anthem into a baseball fight song that expressed their spirit of regional insubordination in the 1980s and 1990s. Entering the twenty-first century, ‘Tears of Mok’po’ no longer played the same role for the Tigers and their fans, and it receded into historical memory. This change in meaning and association shows how the political and historical meaning-making of popular songs can be constructed, reintegrated, and even dismissed.

Historians of the Indian Partition focus on the permit systems the governments of India and Pakistan put in place to stem refugee entry and prevent the return of evacuees. However, the prevention of exit became, alongside non-entrée and the prevention of return, part of an official strategy of immobility in South Asia directed at marginalized castes. At Partition, Pakistan saw the labour of ‘non-Muslim’ marginalized castes as essential to its national wealth. It believed it had to retain them at all costs. On the other side of the border, the article discusses the Indian government’s laggardly, and often indifferent, response to the struggles of caste-oppressed groups trying to migrate to India. The article builds on scholarship on mobility capital and partial citizenship in the aftermath of Partition to argue that with the prevention of exit, citizenship incorporated an imposed nationalization that embodied the status of marginalized castes as more than a minority and produced a form of bonded citizenship.

A considerable knowledge gap exists in relation to the presence and even existence of seagrass within Northern Ireland’s waters. Peer-reviewed publications on the historical ecology of seagrass are scarce and a collated timeline of references directly focusing on Northern Irish seagrasses does not exist. Recognising abiotic and biotic induced environmental change within key marine features such as seagrass is vital when attempting to measure the biodiversity and carbon sequestration services they provide. The research undertaken during this study identified three distinct periods within the archival records, which could be matched to the ecological history of seagrass in Northern Ireland. The first period (extensive and dense seagrass meadows from 1790 to 1880) was characterised by extensive seagrass meadows which were dense and healthy. The second period (degradation from 1880 to 1940) saw the beginnings of decline in seagrass from the 1790s, initially from anthropogenic influences and later from the seagrass wasting disease) and the final period (signs of recovery from 1940 to present day) showed small amounts of local regrowth of seagrass but at far reduced densities compared to the historical baseline described. These three defined periods all delivered varying degrees of anthropogenic stressors which determined the conservational health of seagrass in Northern Ireland. Seagrass habitats have become integral components in future-proofing the coastal marine environment against the effects of climate change and its associated impacts. Therefore, it is envisaged that the historical baseline that this manuscript provides will greatly benefit habitat managers in protecting, repairing, and restoring lost seagrass meadows.

It is a well known and easily verifiable fact that not all integer triangles have integer areas. Consider the triangles with sides {9, 10, 17}, {13, 14, 15}, {5, 7, 8} and {6, 7, 9} with respective areas 36, 84, and . The first two, whose areas are integers, are called Heronian triangles. The second triangle also has the additional property that its sides are consecutive integers and is an example of a Brahmagupta triangle, named after an Indian mathematician, born in AD 598. These are called Super-Heronian triangles in [1] and a method is developed there for generating examples of such triangles.

The Blue Shield UK Underwater Heritage Working Group (UHWG) is dedicated to protecting underwater cultural heritage in crisis, both within the United Kingdom (UK), UK Overseas Territories and internationally. In pursuit of this mission, the UHWG’s objectives are threefold:

We prove the conjecture of Franceschini and Lorenzini [‘Fat points of $\mathbb P^n$ whose support is contained in a linear proper subspace’, J. Pure and Appl. Algebra 160 (2001), 169–182] about the regularity index of fat points of $\mathbb P^n$ whose support is contained in a linear proper subspace.
