I wrote this before the recent uprising in Iran, and the massacre of thousands that followed. On @versobooks.bsky.social blog, the talk I gave at @histmat.bsky.social-London conference in November 2025.

The "incompetence" of international law in the face of imperial aggression is part and parcel of that law. Law's empire has been empire's law. #Venezuela

I think of Graeber and Wengrow's "The Dawn of Everything" every day. It's a long book so if you've been meaning to read it or simply can't read a long book right now – understandable – here's a lovely paper by Ayça Çubukçu about its principles & Graeber's work.

'Watching on was a LSE professor Ayça Çubukçu, who said that it wasn’t all “un-British” to demonstrate ... “It’s in the tradition of this country to protest for justice, to engage in acts of civil disobedience,” she said.'
