Offiziell erkennt die deutsche Regierung die in Afghanistan regierenden Taliban nicht an. Allerdings führte sie bereits Gespräche mit den radikalen Islamisten. Nun geht Berlin noch einen Schritt weite...

(1/3) Central Asia is among the world's most vulnerable regions to climate change. Already today, #Kazakhstan, #Kyrgyzstan, #Tajikistan, #Turkmenistan and #Uzbekistan are facing various climate consequences: from #droughts to #landslides, from #glacier melts to flash #floods. At the same time, ...

Really grateful for the conversation with Bermet Borubaeva about Bishkek's disappeared trolleybuses. A very specific case, yet so illustrative of many post-transition realities. #BishkekSmog

Forget left/right binaries for conspiracy theorists. Our article of the week finds a "national-authoritarian solidarity" among conspiracy believers that binds left-wing economics to right-wing cultural conservatism.

It had been long in the making: the new @eurasianclimate.bsky.social episode on critical raw materials in Central Asia. One of our most substantial segments so far, featuring 3 very different interviewees versed in extractivism, environmental impact assessment and mining standards. Tune in & share!
(1/3) What is the role of #criticalrawmaterials for the energy transition and why are the EU and other global actors so keen on getting them from Central Asian countries such as #Kazakhstan? Is this an economic opportunity? Or can we observe a new, "green" type of #extractivism?

What does the European far-right mean when it talks about ecology?
What begins with natalism and the desire for closed borders, will ultimately morph into a defense of farmers and support for European industrialists over Chinese imports.

There is nothing crazy about this. This horrific video epitomizes the logic of current meme-fascism: it's a colonization of the imagination that precedes and aestheticizes real neo-imperialist violence, dressed up in the glossy looks of stock imagery, influencer content and online scamming

Surprisingly, many people — not least, US President Trump — seem convinced the country has a rich mineral endowment. It’s a folly.

It was a pleasure being interviewed by Sean of @euraknot.bsky.social alongside Eve. Since we spoke in early December, this topic has lost none of its relevance—quite the opposite. Fighting the authoritarian turn and fighting climate change needs to go hand in hand. Not only in Eurasia.
Debates about climate change are something that Eve Darian-Smith and Boris Schneider know well. But what do we do now?
Join us for the first episode of our new six-part series “Eurasian Environments: Climate Justice and Sustainability in Global Context.”
