My new article in Third World Quarterly is out!
“El estado es un macho violador: Reconsidering the state as a site for peacebuilding.”
It argues that the state reproduces patriarchal & colonial violence — and that peacebuilding must center feminist, decolonial practices of care & resistance.

Musk/DOGE cuts are (1) wildly unpopular, (2) plainly illegal, and (3) utterly incompetent, and yet the DC political establishment is unwilling or unable to stop it. They are bowing to a regime of government by billionaire fiat.
DOGE's "receipts" continue to be complete nonsense. And now deliberately so, given that they were told this was false and they removed it, only to repost it.

The US Has Deported Immigrants En Masse Before. Here’s What Happened.
Donald Trump has promised to deport millions on “Day One.” He wouldn’t be the first president to round up undocumented immigrants en masse.
