Excited to see Akhil Gupta and Purnima Mankekar’s new book for the first time! Based on their Morgan Lectures and years of fieldwork in Bangalore they give a more complex picture of capitalism affect and digital labor. @dukepress.bsky.social #AAS2025

I'm sorry Prime Minister, but you've got this one wrong. @ACU_ICPS and 140 academics, cyber experts and agencies who work with children and young people have demonstrated that different approaches would yield better outcomes. #Auspol2024 westernsydney.edu.au/young-and-resi… @YoungResilient

Such an important study that finally shows the correlation between systemic under-funding of #youthwork & its impact on young peoples' lives. Thinking precarity,neoliberal impact agendas, and the need for constant success stories. It's clear that youth clubs are safe survival spaces for many.
New research from the IFS showing the closure of youth centres during the 2010s was shortsighted. For every £1 saved, the costs to affected users, crime victims and public spending in the police and the criminal justice system amount to £2.85
