Abstract: Vasiliki Vita then takes a more introspective approach to methodological praxis in "Between the Archive and the Island: Navigating Resistance in Language Documentation" that draws from her own data-collection experience in Micronesia.The issue concludes with Ferdausi Mahojabin Sumana's timely review of Manuel Goyanes and Azahara Cañedo's edited volume, "Media Influence on Opinion Change and Democracy" (2024), which provides a dynamic assessment of the role of media in shaping public trust and democratic participation.Collectively, these contributions illuminate the layered, situated, and at times paradoxical manifestations of resistance.Each article adds a distinctive dimension to broader debates concerning the analytical and embodied contours of resistance, and we trust that Issue 17 will stimulate further interdisciplinary dialogue.We express our sincere gratitude to the authors for their trust and to the reviewers for their invaluable expertise.We would also like to acknowledge the Doctoral School for their generous funding and the collegial support of its members.Finally, as Managing and Deputy Editors, we would like to extend our profound appreciation for this year's SJPR editorial team and their exemplary commitment throughout the publication cycle.To Aydin and Shadwa, our Content Editors: your intellectual engagement and collaboration have been instrumental to the production of this issue.To Laya and Ana, our Communications and Operations Editors: your careful and often unseen work has significantly strengthened
