Representing South Asian alterity? East London's Asian electronic music scene and the articulation of globally mediated identities2009 •
In the years since the London tube bombings, popular depictions of British Asians have been increasingly `othered' at best, and stereotyped as dangerous terrorists at worst. Asian self-representation continues to be a critically-needed intervention. East London's Asian electronic music scene serves as a means to represent the voices of young urban British Asians, attempting to bring them from peripheral alterity and render them visible in mainstream British popular culture. The music, which blends synthesized electronic music with South Asian musical stylings, has brought musicians from both the South Asian diaspora and the subcontinent to perform in `Banglatown', East London. These regular globalized performances of the scene, an aspect rarely investigated, have challenged locally bounded British Asian identities.

‘Dying your own way? A comparative approach to Mortality as a religious identity marker in British Islam and British Judaism,’2013 •
This article explores how two religious traditions, Judaism and Islam, confer meaning on the phenomenon of mortality, and it examines how their adherents seek to make sense of death in 21st century Britain. This research scrutinizes the religious identities of these two groups within the context of British multiculturalism, and it proposes approaching the manners in which death is perceived and experienced by Muslims and Jews as identity markers. The article argues that death issues contribute to the processes of collective labelling, self-perception and definition, through the perspective of religion. This inquiry will try to elucidate how the study of doctrines and practices to do with death can provide a meaningful platform for exploring identity boundaries. What does it mean to be a Jew or a Muslim in Britain today? Can the ways in which Jews and Muslims relate to mortality help us to answer this?

Maria Sibylla Merian's Frogs2010 •
Maria Sibylla Merian (German, 1647-1717) is best known for her magnificent 1705 publication, Metamorphosis insectorum surinamensium, although she published earlier works on insect metamorphosis. Merian wrote the text and painted all of the illustrations for her books, and for the early volumes she produced most of the engravings. Contemporary scholarship has focused primarily on Merian's detailed images of lepidopteran and host plant life cycles, but Merian's Surinam album also portrays anuram metamorphosis, including the first European depiction of Pipa pipa.

El Consejo de Estado y la cuestión de Ormuz, 1600-1625: políticas transnacionales e impactos locales2015 •
Este artículo analiza cómo, en el contexto de la integración de Portugal en la Monarquía Católica, el Consejo de Estado se ocupó del conflicto de Ormuz y gestionó las tensiones y los diversos intereses de los agentes portugueses y castellanos en la corte, en Lisboa, en Goa, y en Ormuz. Pretende reflexionar sobre el impacto local de las decisiones transnacionales de la monarquía que, además de la cuestión del Golfo Pérsico, tenía que decidir sobre una multiplicidad de problemas y conflictos que afectaban desde diversos espacios geográficos al conjunto del imperio. El artículo pretende, por fin, demostrar la participación del Consejo de Estado de la Monarquía Católica en las decisiones relativas a la gestión y administración del imperio ultramarino portugués, no sólo a raíz de la crisis de Ormuz, sino en el gobierno del conjunto del imperio.
This article explores emerging ascetic orientations towards utility and death in India. It chronicles the activities of an innovative organization which campaigns for cadaver donation for the purposes of organ retrieval and dissection by trainee doctors. This would entail dispensing with cremation, a mode of cadaver disposal newly characterized as wasteful. In order to counter ‘cremation-lack’, the asceticism of cadaver donation is accentuated by the organization. The group thereby re-interprets classical Hinduism according to the demands of ‘medical rationality’. This produces a novel ‘donation theology’ and additionally serves to demonstrate the ‘asceticism’ by which all voluntary donors of body material are obliged to abide.
