New article: How is the dominant approach to mining in the Econ discipline Eurocentric? What would an alternative non-Eurocentric framework look like and how does it change our understanding of mining?

Tracing one mine, I try to answer these questions👇🧵

Ingrid bu sene de Nobel ödüllerine layık görülen yaklaşımların kör avrupa-merkezci kökenlerine doğru bir yolculuk yapmış. Abartılı övgülerden sıkılanları meseleyi on ikiden vuran bu yazıya bekleriz.

This is a really good article from @ingridhk.bsky.social and helps you understand a little bit more about the Eurocentric nature of mainstream economics. #EconSky
My analysis of his year's Economics Nobel is out in EPW! What's wrong with the Economics Nobel this time around? I've written a little commentary arguing that the Prize rewards Eurocentric foundations for (innovation-driven) growth and supports a technology fetish. PDF: ingridhk.com/wp-content/u...

Now that election season is over, Norway again shows its true imperial face: Ethical guidelines for the Sovereign Wealth Fund to be loosened because of fear that they'll *actually* safeguard against investment in genocide.

The Norwegian Petroleum Museum in Stavanger: good on history of politics & econ of industry but ends on a fantasy note: techno-optimist, green growth, no mention renewables being additive + crazy focus on individual action for climate change 🫣 State/Petroleum ideology in action?

Once again the Econ Nobel is announced just in time for the week in @devikadutt.bsky.social & my module where we study the development of capitalism. And once again it confirms to students that prevailing understandings of growth in Econ are thoroughly Eurocentric (esp Mokyr in most blatant way)!

So grossed out by the lack of critique of the Peace Prize among Norwegian commentators in years like this when the prize's support for US (imperial) interests is so incredibly explicit 🫣

BREAKING: Over a thousand people gather in Trafalgar Square to oppose genocide and the Palestine Action ban.

Police have already started arresting peaceful protestors under the Terrorism Act for silently holding signs which say "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action"

It was really engaging to think about imperialism with Costas Lapavitsas and Claude Serfati at Historical Materialism this summer - with a lively French audience! Promising that so many young people are interested in Marxism and (anti-)imperialism. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLwW...
