My new article, “The moral economy of global priorities,” is now out in RIPE. It argues that greater attention to #morality in #IPE and global #governance scholarship is needed to understand new dynamics of #privatization and market rule.

If you thought your rightwing uncle is annoying at the Christmas/new years celebration table, think about Trumps family, where they have to endure his crazy over-holidays ideas like invading another country 🙃

What’s up with this move of Israel to recognize Somaliland? I get it that it’s not a great development in the context of the war in Ukraine but what about Palestine? What about recognizing them?

Do you think I can be psychologically not well because I can’t learn French? I did at least 5 different B1 courses and I still don’t speak and I have the conviction that I never will. Even with my average intellect, it can’t be that it’s impossible to learn it? Should I maybe do a therapy first?

The ICJ said that UNWRA was indispensable because no other well functioning humanitarian systems were in place. But what if the alternatives, like the GHF, were well functioning? Would the problem disappear for the Court?
