How we could show that Hadza is Afroasiatic: a response to Militarev’s “Hadza as Afrasian?”
Journal of Language Relationship. 2023. Vol. 21. No. 1-2. P. 110–116.
In this response to Alexander Militarev’s paper on the Afroasiatic (Afrasian) affiliation of Hadza, I attempt to identify the major theoretical issues with his lexicostatistical analysis of the similarities between Hadza and the various branches of the Afroasiatic family, explaining why this analysis cannot be accepted as conclusive, and suggesting some steps that could be taken in order to weed out insignificant evidence (e.g. more attention toward meticulous step-by-step reconstruction of the proto-wordlists potentially involved in such a comparison).

People believe that food wasting behaviour is immoral. This judgment could be partially driven by increasing
awareness of global environmental threats associated with the current scale of food waste. Recent research indicates
that moral judgments of food wasting behaviour may also reflect higher levels of food insecurity—
potentially serving an adaptive role in harsh environments. In our research, ...
